Cultural sensitivity, competence and curiosity are essential for clinicians. To promote these, we developed an elective module in cultural psychiatry for medical students, consisting of eight seminars. In seminar eight, we used film clips to teach mental state examination. We comment on the development and delivery of the module, and offer a selection of student feedback. Cultural psychiatry could be better integrated into core medical school curricula, and we call for research to explore this.

Purpose Of Review: To highlight recent findings on the prevalence and risk and protective factors for dementia in Indigenous Peoples, who are disproportionately affected by health inequities driven by social determinants of health and historical injustices. With increasing numbers of Indigenous individuals entering older age, there is a growing need for research to better understand dementia and opportunities for prevention in Indigenous Peoples.
Recent Findings: Recent studies highlight a wide range of dementia prevalence across Indigenous Peoples, with estimates varying significantly by methodology, socio-cultural context, and region with stark gaps in regional representation.
