<p>My career has been focused on psychiatric education for medical students and for psychiatric and medical residents. My choice of education was a consequence of being awarded a National Institute Mental Health Career Teaching Fellowship early in my career. The Fellowship allowed me to spend two years observing the process of psychiatric education in many settings.</p>
<p>I graduated from Harvard College summa cum laude and Harvard Medical School cum laud and then did a medical internship at the University of Minnesota Hospital in Minneapolis, Minnesota. After my internship, I came to the Einstein psychiatric residency and I have remained here for the rest of my career. I carry the rank of Clinical Professor.</p>
<p>During my tenure as full-time faculty member, I was head of the consultation- liaison service and eventually became Director of Psychiatric Education for medical students and residents as well as non-psychiatric trainees. I served on the curriculum, admissions, promotions and student evaluation committees. I was also chosen to be the first Chairman of the Leo Davidoff Teaching Award Committee.&nbsp; Given my expertise in education, I was invited to participate in exam development for the National Board of Medical Examiners, the Prite, and the National Board of Psychiatry and Neurology exams (parts I and II). While at the national boards, I developed the audio vignette question now used in the part I exam.</p>
<p>A founding member of the Association of Academic Psychiatry, I received as <em>&ldquo;Psychiatric Educator of the Year </em>&ldquo; award in 1994. I now serve on the Education Committee of the American Academy of Psychiatry and the Law and was given the title of Distinguished Fellow of the American Psychiatric Association.</p>
<p>In addition to Psychiatric Education I have broad interest in psychiatric topics including the interview, terminal illness, sexuality, consultation -liaison, suicide, the impaired clinician and psychopharmacology. &nbsp;My presentations and papers reflect these interests.</p>
<p>I'm currently a part-time faculty member supervising&rsquo;s PGY III&rsquo;s and IV&rsquo;s, conducting case conferences, and teaching addiction and forensic fellows. I have a private practice and do forensic work</p>
<p>I'm happy to assist medical students and residents who have questions about careers in psychiatry.</p>
