Research
Residents are expected to complete and present a scholarly project at Resident Research Day at least once during their training. Residents are given protected time to attend psychiatry review courses during training
The Research Stream (optional) provides high quality research experiences for interested residents. It is meant to assist residents in becoming exposed to research during their residency within our training program. It assists residents who wish to do research during their training, as well as those who want to set the course for a research career in Psychiatry. It provides the resident a half-day per week of protected time plus elective rotations for research activities.
We are fortunate at the University of Ottawa to have the ability to enhance research training in a more formal capacity through the Royal College Clinical Investigator Program. This opportunity provides formal research training of two years duration to residents and is open to trainees in any medical specialty. Should a Psychiatry trainee be interested and receive approval for the program, one year of clinical research training would come from within the usual Psychiatry training elective time. The other year is an additional year of training. More information on this program is available through our PGE office, the Royal College website or by contacting the program director at the University of Ottawa.
