Residents Invited To Apply for Fellowships

Published Online:https://doi.org/10.1176/pn.38.21.0013a

Psychiatry residents are invited to apply for the APA/Shire Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowships for 2004-05. There will be five residents chosen to participate in this two-year program.

The fellowship was launched last year to interest more psychiatry residents in child and adolescent psychiatry.

As part of the program, each fellow will be assigned to work with a mentor. Also, the fellows will be able to attend APA’s 2004 and 2005 annual meetings with travel and meeting expenses paid. At those meetings, the residents will be able to network with the field’s leading lights and attend sessions on various aspects of child and adolescent psychiatry; at the 2005 annual meeting in Atlanta, they will present a workshop as part of the scientific program.

The fellowship is open to psychiatry residents in their PGY-1 to PGY-3 years. They must be in a psychiatry residency program during both years of the fellowship.

Financial support for the fellowship comes through an unrestricted educational grant from Shire Pharmaceuticals.

The deadline for applications is November 12. Applications and more information can be obtained on the Web at www.psych.org/med_ed/Shire_brochure_04.pdf or from Jane Edgerton, director of the APA Office of Children’s Affairs, by phone at (202) 682-6857 or e-mail at .
