For
All Residents:
In
addition to the clinical and education programs described for each
PG year, all Cornell residents participate in weekly psychiatric
grand rounds at both Payne Whitney and the Westchester Division
and departmental Morbidity and Mortality (M and M) case conferences.
They are also invited to participate in the residents’ elective
didactic seminar program, the careers in psychiatry seminar program,
the residents' council and the residents' journal club. Residents
are encouraged to participate as members on any of many departmental
and hospital committees.
All
