Objectives: The goal of this session is to bring Clinical Perspectives and the eponymous JAACAP column "into life" by casting content from recent and forthcoming installments of the series into the popular "TED Talk" (Technology, Education, and Design Talk) format. Methods: Following the format first established at the 2014 Annual Meeting, this will be a 180-minute session co-moderated by JAACAP Editor-in-Chief Andres Martin and Assistant Editor for Clinical Perspectives Laura Prager. The session will start with a brief introduction providing the background, context, and "ground rules" for an effective TED Talk, including adherence to tight time limits and minimal use of audiovisual supports. The authors of five published or forthcoming Clinical Perspectives will then each present a 15-minute TED Talk of their respective articles. Each presentation will be followed by five minutes of interactive and moderated discussion. There will be a short break between speakers, allowing for a brief introduction. The session will end with overarching concluding remarks, time for discussion, and an invitation for new submissions. Results: All five presentations will discuss child psychiatric takes on topics of acute public health relevance and social concern that have been featured prominently in the lay media. Conclusions: Child and adolescent psychiatry is grounded in solid clinical practice, and it is from this clinical substrate that important research questions and hypotheses first arise. Clinical Perspectives provides a forum to consider and revisit clinical phenomena anew, a platform from which to reclaim the excitement that first drew us into our chosen field. The TED Talk format, which has been so successful in the global dissemination of Technology, Education, and Design ideas, can be successfully borrowed to reveal that child and adolescent psychiatry does indeed have (clinical) "ideas worth spreading."

Objectives: Participants who attend this workshop will learn how to identify their current skills and how to advance and get their papers published. Relatively few students, trainees, and clinicians publish scientific or other educational manuscripts because of limitations in time, experience, and access to mentorship. Improving access to publishing opportunities is important because the process of authoring and publishing scientific manuscripts can increase competency in research literacy, engagement in evidence-based practices, and other skills needed to increase mastery in child and adolescent psychiatry. Methods: We aim to overcome these limitations by providing a "back stage pass" experience, combining hands-on training with practical instruction to build the early foundation for getting published. Topics include choosing a publishable topic of interest, practical steps toward publication, searching the literature and harnessing electronic library resources, writing using organizing principles, preparing an effective abstract, optimizing cover and revision letters, thinking like an editor, dealing with revisions, and the inevitability of rejection and constructively moving forward. Results: Attendees will learn practical steps toward getting published in scholarly journals and strategies to overcome current limitations and obstacles. Interested participants will also have the opportunity to get started with mentored-publishing experiences available through JAACAP and JAACAP Connect. Conclusions: Participating in this workshop will provide the preliminary knowledge and skills necessary for getting published
