Residents are continually exposed to research being carried on in the department and are encouraged to participate in or to complete projects of their own. Our training emphasizes critical thinking and provides residents with the tools necessary to evaluate and interpret psychiatric research.

Listed below is a sampling of some of the resident research activity over the past few years:

• 'A Shock in Time: Deja vu following Electroconvulsive Shock Therapy'
• 'Time to Face it: Suicidal Ideation on Facebook'
• 'Endogenous Opioid System Disorders'
• 'Doctors as Gods: Should Psychiatrists Mke Patients DNR Against the Patient's Will?'

住宿研究课程

A seminar is conducted in which residents critically examine research papers from the current literature and determine whether research design and procedures are adequate. Statistical analytic techniques are reviewed, and the transfer of research findings to clinical practice is emphasized.

Each resident is also required to complete a scholarly analysis of some important psychiatric issue, which can lead to a formal research project and published articles.
