Æ»¹ûÒùԺ’s Department of Psychiatry is one the most prestigious in the world. In the 1950s and ‘60s, Heinz Lehmann conducted the first North American clinical trials for antipsychotic and antidepressant medications. Theodore Sourkes identified the core neurobiological features of Parkinson’s disease. And Eric Wittkower plus Jack Fried brought together scholars from Anthropology and Psychiatry to create Transcultural Psychiatric Studies. Since then, faculty members and graduate students continue outstanding research in addictions, Alzheimer’s and childhood disorders, eating, personality and mood disorders, stress, trauma, and psychosis. The work is conducted in people plus animal models, and benefits from expertise ranging from neuroimaging and epigenetics to mental health services and public policy, remaining at the cutting edge of research on health, disease, and recovery.

The graduate program in Psychiatry is designed to provide advanced research training in the basic, applied, and social sciences relevant to issues in psychiatry. Applicants are admitted from a wide range of backgrounds, including undergraduate degrees in relevant areas (e.g., psychology, neuroscience, sociology, medical anthropology, nursing, and medicine), and those who are pursuing their psychiatry residency at Æ»¹ûÒùÔº. Most, though not all students, continue to a Ph.D. The graduate program does not provide clinical training. |
