NIMH PGY4 Psychiatry Residency and Clinical Fellowship Programs
Overview
The National Institute of Mental Health (NIMH) Division of Intramural Research Programs offers both an Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education (ACGME) approved residency program for the fourth year of post graduate psychiatric training (PGY4) and a non-accredited post-residency research fellowship program.
Program structure
Those who enter the program as PGY4 residents transfer from ACGME accredited psychiatry residency programs having completed their general psychiatry residency requirements in their first three years. Clinical and research training are integrated during the PGY4 year and lead to board eligibility in General Psychiatry.
Clinical fellow applicants can come from psychiatry residencies, subspecialty fellowships, such as child and adolescent psychiatry, or graduate medical training in related fields, such as neurology. The 3-year full-time training program is mentorship driven and individually tailored. Skills are developed through close interactions with experienced research mentors, and hands-on experience conducting research.
