This event presented FK Usakti lecturer Dr. Erita Istriana, Sp.KJ and was accompanied by moderator Dr. Rivo Mario, Sp.KJ, who is also a lecturer at FK Usakti in the Mental Health Sciences section.

This public seminar began with remarks from the Dean of FK Usakti, Dr. dr. Raditya Wratsangka Sp.O.G, Subsp. Obginsos. He stated that “Depression and Anxiety in the World of Education” is a relevant topic in our world of education because depression and anxiety are not only experienced by students, but also by lecturers and administration staff.

With the end of this public seminar, we hope that participants’ understanding on the importance of mental health is increasing, and we can better recognize the symptoms of depression and immediately seek help from experts.
