INTRODUCTION: Burnout Syndrome is a biopsychosocial impairment. Defined as a condition caused by chronic stress in work activity, it is characterized by exhaustion, negative attitudes or negligence towards clients/patients, and dissatisfaction with one's performance. Its occurrence is highly prevalent in physicians and medical students and can be associated with clinical conditions such as depression and obesity. However, being a recent concept, there is a lack of consensus on its definition, resulting in the absence of diagnostic and treatment protocols. Thus, this study aims to report the event entitled “I Roundtable on Burnout Syndrome” and the importance of discussing this problem in the academic environment. REPORT: The event took place on October 23, 2020, on the Google Meet platform, consisting of an initial lecture about concept, symptoms and treatment, followed by a round table focused on the discussion of experiences and specificities of the disease, and, by at the end, a moment for solving questions from the participants. The program was attended by a doctor, a psychologist and a philosopher. DISCUSSION: The discussions held at the event elucidated that, as an involvement that results in various damages and has a high prevalence among health professionals and students themselves, the expansion of understanding about the management and prevention of Burnout Syndrome becomes a necessity within the medical and academic communities. From this, the use of a multidisciplinary approach, as proposed by the roundtable, improved the participants' knowledge, not only about the Burnout Syndrome but also about self-care in mental health. CONCLUSION: Thus, the realization of the I Roundtable on Burnout Syndrome, through the clarification of concepts and promotion of debates, contributed to the expansion of the promotion of knowledge on a subject that greatly needs attention within the context of mental health.
