Charles Macfie Campbell (1876-1943) was a psychiatrist in the United States. He was President of the American Psychiatric Association... Campbell was born in Scotland in 1876. He received his medical degree from Edinburgh in 1902, earning both an M.B. and a Ch.B., after which he sought postgraduate training in France and then Germany, where he trained in Heidelberg under German psychiatrist Emil Kraepelin (1856–1926)... Macfie Campbell spent 1907 back in Scotland as an assistant physician at the Royal Edinburgh Asylum but returned to New York to work again under Meyer at the (renamed) New York Psychiatric Institute in 1908... When Meyer left the Institute in 1910 for a professorship at Johns Hopkins University and to plan for the new Henry C. Phipps Psychiatric Clinic (opened in April 1913), Macfie Campbell also left to work at the Bloomingdale Hospital in White Plains, New York. In 1911 he earned his Doctor of Medicine degree from Edinburgh after completing a dissertation on general paralysis of the insane (later known as neurosyphilis). In 1913 he rejoined Adolf Meyer in Baltimore to serve as associate director of the newly opened Phipps clinic. He was also appointed a faculty position as assistant professor of psychiatry at Johns Hopkins Medical School. In 1920 he moved to Massachusetts to become the new director of the Boston Psychopathic Hospital and to assume the position of chair of the department of psychiatry at Harvard Medical School, where he remained until his death."
