About Us
The American Society of Clinical Psychopharmacology (ASCP) was founded in 1992 to advance the science and practice of clinical psychopharmacology. Its over 900 members are physicians who study and practice psychopharmacology, as well as doctoral level investigators of clinical psychopharmacology or of pharmacology. ASCP members are advocates for clinical psychopharmacology and for clinical research.
ASCP has over 900 members, most of whom live in the United States. It is headquartered in Brentwood, Tennessee.
For over 50 years, the ASCP Annual Meeting (formerly known as NCDEU) has featured emerging research in the field of psychopharmacology and brings together over 900 academic and industry investigators, research pharmacists, and clinicians.
ASCP is a proud member of the American Brain Coalition (ABC).
ASCP's official journal is The Journal of Clinical Psychiatry, with the largest circulation in psychiatry.
