Five Residents Selected for Child Fellowships
APA received a second unrestricted educational grant from Shire Pharmaceuticals for another group of residents to encourage them to work in child and adolescent psychiatry. The grant will underwrite the travel, meeting registration, and limited expenses of five residents to APA’s annual meetings in 2004 and 2005 in New York City and Atlanta, respectively.
The residents selected for these fellowships are Jennifer Cheng, M.D., of the University of Washington in Seattle; Patricia A. Daly, M.D., of the Dartmouth-Hitchcock Medical Center in Lebanon, N.H.; Kareem Ghalib, M.D., of the New York Presbyterian Hospital Program at Columbia University in New York City; Giuseppe Raviola, M.D., of the MGH/McLean Adult Psychiatry Residency Training Program in Boston; and Lawrence Tucker, M.D., of the UCLA Neuropsychiatric Institute in Los Angeles.
The APA/Shire Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship program is designed to develop interest among general psychiatry residents in pursuing careers in child and adolescent psychiatry by providing educational opportunities that would not otherwise be available to them. Showing residents the most exciting new clinical research and the most successful public programs for the treatment of seriously mentally ill children and adolescents are two important issues in this recruitment.
The fellows also will have unparalleled opportunities to meet and network with leaders in child and adolescent psychiatry. They will be matched with mentors who will consult with them about sessions on the program of special interest. In addition, they will meet as a group to talk about the annual meeting presentations.
This fellowship program is overseen by the APA Council on Children, Adolescents, and Their Families and is administered by the project manager of the APA Office of Children’s Affairs.
