Dr. O'Leary is excited to introduce you to Psychiatry Boot Camp (PBC), a podcast created by Dr. Mark Mullen to help prepare medical students for psychiatry residency. It covers fundamental topics in psychiatry and inspires young psychiatrists to think critically about their approach to the field. The curriculum is based on published literature on psychiatry crash courses and boot camps, and features interviews with experts in the field. Some specific PBC episodes that are discussed include those introducing students to psychiatry as a discipline with unique challenges, including interviews with Dr. Awais Aftab, Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Case Western University, and Dr. Allen Frances, Chair of the DSM-4 Task Force and Chair Emeritus at Duke. We also discuss Dr. Mullen's eye-opening interview with Dr. Tyler Black, a suicidologist and child psychiatrist at British Columbia Children's Hospital who provides the best foundational discussion of the suicide assessment that Dr. O'Leary has ever encountered.

Enjoy this interview and afterward, please check out Psychiatry Boot Camp.
