Residents and Fellows Training Programs
Research and the Neuropsychiatry Research Track
Technology in basic science research is changing rapidly, and this track allows residents with expertise in these arenas to keep abreast of the advances that pertain to their areas of interest. A limited number of residents with prior research experience are admitted to the psychiatry program on the neuropsychiatry research track. This track is designed for residents who have developed laboratory or clinical research skills prior to entering their residency that are critical to maintain throughout the residency training period. In addition, the resident may have research that requires further laboratory training or experiments in order to complete the project. The resident may elect to spend up to three months each post graduate year in a basic science or clinical neuroscience laboratory to learn new techniques or to conduct ongoing research projects. The resident would be expected to identify a mentor, who would ensure funding for the project and provide guidance, as well as evaluating the resident's progress and performance.
