“…The residency even invited program graduates who were actively deployed to share their lessons and experiences in real time. This encouraged development of strong inter-professional relationships across both disciplines and time zones, as residents will later practice in the same system in which they are training [16]. Furthering the development of these inter-professional relationships, we have been able to collaborate with other military residency programs and share didactics with others who might benefit from introduction to the material.…”

“…Graduates must operationalize their knowledge of military policy to communicate the appropriate information to commanders without violating the military command exception in privacy laws [15]. They are expected to routinely communicate with command about the psychiatric concerns that are relevant to the unit, which can be challenging when the commander outranks them and has the ability to override their treatment recommendations, not unlike family members [16].…”

Purpose of Review Born out of necessity, military medicine continues to find itself at the forefront of medical innovation. This generation of military physicians has never previously been challenged with continuing to provide top notch medical support to servicemembers in a variety of operational settings in the midst of a global pandemic. While military medicine has always been able to uniquely meet the educational goals of residency training, COVID-19 brought new challenges to the forefront. Recent Findings While the threat presented by COVID-19 was different from the historical battlefield threats and challenges that have given birth to military medicine, it was nevertheless ready to pivot and adjust course, focusing on how to best meet the medical needs of the military patient population in an ever-changing geopolitical environment while continuing to meet and exceed the educational standards that training programs are held to. Historically and currently, mental health remains one of the most common reasons that servicemembers are evacuated from combat zones. Summary The COVID-19 pandemic provided an opportunity for modern military psychiatry to showcase its ability to adjust the educational focus in certain areas of residency training to prepare the next generation of military psychiatrists to be able to face the newest threat to force wellness.

Barriers and facilitators to conducting research by early career psychiatrists: a literature review

et al. 2019

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

ObjectivesTo understand and identify factors that promote and prevent research participation among early career psychiatrists (ECPs), in order to understand what would encourage more ECPs to pursue a research career.MethodsWe conducted an electronic search of databases (PubMed and the Cochrane library) using the keywords ‘doctors’, ‘trainees’, ‘residents’, ‘physicians’ and ‘psychiatric trainees’ as well as ‘research’ (MeSH) and ‘publishing’ (MeSH). This search was complemented by a secondary hand search.ResultsWe identified 524 articles, of which 16 fulfilled inclusion criteria for this review. The main barriers included lack of dedicated time for research, lack of mentoring and lack of funding. The main facilitators were opportunities to receive mentorship and access to research funding.ConclusionsAction is needed to counteract the lack of ECPs interested in a career in research. Specific programs encouraging ECPs to pursue research careers and having access to mentors could help increase the current numbers of researching clinicians in the field.
