The presentations were well received and the practical part of the focus group training generated a lively discussion.  In their teaching the presenters used a range of papers they had published in the three areas: maternal mental health based on a recently funded THET project, [1-3] writing for publication, [4-11] and focus group research. [12-14]  The session was concluded with the inevitable certificate of attendance.
