Abstract:

Does the pharmaceutical industry exert excessive influence on prescribing, research and publication in the field of psychogeriatrics? This is a topic about which I receive a significant number of emails and one which often gets discussed when those active in research in our discipline get together (at both sponsored and unsponsored events!).
