Commentary: authorship and training in forensic psychiatry.
This commentary is written in praise of Dr. Simon's Presidential Address with exemplification of certain of his themes. Forensic fellowships have now become the training ground for the next generation of forensic psychiatrists, who need to be encouraged to find their own best way to write. They should also be encouraged to participate in research with senior mentors and researchers, as published research will lead to the challenging of stereotyping and misinformation about the populations served by forensic psychiatry.
