The next generation of psychiatrists is already showing great promise as researchers.

This year’s winners were Monika Chaudhry, M.D., for “Renal Transplantation in a Patient With Schizoaffective Disorder, Bipolar Type”; Joy Lin, B.S., for “Effects of Childhood Adversity and Adulthood Trauma on C-Reactive Protein in the Health and Retirement Study”; Alexandra Rice, M.D., M.A., for “The Efficacy of Complementary and Alternative Therapies to Treat Depression During Pregnancy: A Meta-Analysis”; William Levitt, M.D., for “Program Development of a Buprenorphine/Naloxone (Bup/Nx) Outpatient Program in a Safety Net Hospital” and Jeremy Kidd, M.D., M.P.H., for “Special-’T’ Training: Pre- , Post- , and 90-Day Outcomes From a Residency-Wide Professionalism Workshop on Transgender Health.”

For each Annual Meeting, eligible residents and medical students are invited to submit abstracts for posters under five categories: Clinical Case Studies, Psychosocial and Biomedical Research Projects, Patient-Oriented Care and Epidemiology, Community Development and Service Projects, and Curriculum Development and Educational Projects.

Submitted abstracts are evaluated by a panel of judges; this year’s judges were Ranna Perekh, M.D., Joan Anzia, M.D., Michelle Pato, M.D., and John Coverdale, M.D. All submitted posters were presented at the Annual Meeting, and winners received a medal and bragging rights for themselves and their institutions. ■
