Each spring, the American Psychiatric Association (APA) and American Psychiatric Association Foundation (APAF) award fellowships to a select group of psychiatry residents. We’re excited to share that this year, three Duke Psychiatry & Behavioral Sciences residents were awarded APA/APAF fellowships.
Through these fellowships, residents are given opportunities for experiential learning, training, and professional development that will help them become leaders in the field of psychiatry. In addition, APA/APAF Fellows get exclusive opportunities to be a part of APA leadership councils and network with APA members from around the country.
Read on to learn about the fellowships awarded to Gregg Robbins-Welty, MD, MS, Andrew Tuck, MD, and Rick Wolthusen, MD, MPP.
