Hi all,
I am about to start internship in July, but I'm thinking about postdoc. I am interested in specializing in perinatal mood and anxiety disorders (PMADs) / reproductive mental health. There is a T32 reproductive mental health research-focused postdoc at UNC, but I'm coming from a predominantly clinical background so I don't know how qualified I am for that position. Also, I want to stay in NY. I've noticed there are numerous women's mental health/PMADs psychiatric fellowships at major universities in the North East. They provide opportunities for research and clinical specialization. Is it possible for a PhD to apply to a psychiatric fellowship?
I know I can't prescribe. BUT - My dissertation is focused on postpartum depression. I have worked in several research labs that focus on PMAD issues. I have worked in an intensive outpatient program focusing on PMADs. I feel like I'm qualified for these programs, but I'll have a PhD not an MD!!
Thanks!
