Residency Program
Seminars
 The General Psychiatry Seminar Series for the academic year 2008-2009
contains individual seminars for each PGY year. In addition a sizable
number of seminars (particularly in the first two years) are conducted
with a combined PGY-1 -2 cohort. This integration is advantageous as it:
- - Increases the critical mass of the seminar size (increasing
interaction and learning)
- - Increases quality/consistency of educational/seminar offerings
- - Promotes greater cohesion between the PGY-1 and PGY-2 classes
Specific seminar offerings for each year consist of the following:
PGY-1
- Introduction to Psychiatry
- Emergency Psychiatry
- Introduction to Psychopharmacology
PGY-1 and PGY- 2 combined seminar series
(offered in a 2 year cycle
with seminar series A alternating with seminar series B)
