The Issues
My Areas of Focus
Education with Influence
Our traditional methods of scholarly activity are limited in scope. Join me in advocating for practical ways to prepare for life after training while leveraging the power of media to advance our knowledge. Together we can educate our patients, our communities and each other about mental health in a powerful way.
The field of psychiatry is undergoing an unprecedented transformation How can tomorrow's psychiatrists keep up?
Welcome to the training office: a sounding board through which residents and fellows can discuss meaningful ways to influence their program infrastructure while sharing the joys and challenges of being a trainee during this extraordinary time.
