Senior Resident Administrative Fellowship

The fellowship provides a three-month experience at the ABPN office to become familiar with the structure and function of the ABPN, major regulatory and professional organizations in psychiatry and neurology (e.g., ABMS, ACGME and RCs, FSMB, specialty and subspecialty organizations), and crucial issues confronting our two disciplines.

View the ABPN Education and Research Initiatives brochure for more information.
