Postgraduate Year 4
In the fourth year it is expected that residents will refine their basic skills as well as acquire new knowledge in particular areas of interest of psychiatry. All residents are expected to continue outpatient psychotherapy and medication management clinics. There is significant time available for additional elective experiences based on resident preferences. Residents may elect to have an administrative experience on one of the inpatient units or outpatient clinics, provide community consultation, and/or conduct research.
About 50 percent of a fourth-year resident's time is devoted to an assigned clinical experience, such as serving as a junior attending on an inpatient unit or junior attending in one of the specialty clinics. The remaining 50 percent is devoted to elective activities which include clinical, teaching, and/or research options.
Alternatively, fourth-year residents may elect to enter one of the fellowships offered by the Department of Psychiatry at the PGY-4 level: Child and Adolescent or Women's Mental Health. These fellowships have specific clinical research programs and allow the resident to develop an area of expertise before beginning a private, public, or academic career.
Elective rotations in the fourth year vary with resident preference and may include an in-depth clinical experience in any one of the department's programs - Neurobehavioral, Psychotic Disorders, Women's Mental Health Services, Mood & Anxiety Disorders, or Child and Adolescent Psychiatry.
- Further development and consolidation of an identity as a psychiatrist through administrative assignments as chief resident or senior resident in a variety of clinical settings.
- Integration of clinical skills through participation in a variety of selective and elective rotations.
- Further development of intellectual curiosity through participation in ongoing research or development of new projects.
Grand Rounds Presentation. As part of the ACGME requirement for academic activity, our senior residents are required to present at the department grand rounds. They can select the topic and form of the presentation. Clinically-based residents often opt for the presentation of a clinical case or series of cases that served as the basis for educational development. For those residents who conducted research or completed a specific research project, they will often present the process and results.
Postgraduate Year 3
As residents complete their PG-2 year, they have the opportunity to select the focus for their subsequent years. The majority of residents are clinically focused and choose our multi-specialty track. This educational program takes its name from the different subspecialty clinics that residents rotate though during the morning rotations. At UIC, residents rotate through Neuropsychology, Women's Mental Health, and Evaluation Clinic. At Jesse Brown VA, residents rotate through the Day Hospital Program, PTSD, Geriatrics, Clozapine and Affective Disorders Clinics, and Addictions Programs.
In addition to the clinical track, there are two research programs, the Adult Neuroscience Training Program and the Adult, Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Research Training Program that are available for those trainees interested in developing skills in the areas of basic science and clinical research. Under the direction of eminent researchers, trainees are educated in the principles of research design, epidemiology, methodology, and outcome evaluation.
All PGY-3 residents attend the same didactics regardless of the track chosen.
Clinical work during the PG 3 year occurs primarily in an outpatient setting. Depending on the educational track chosen, residents gain experience from seeing patients in our multispecialty clinics, community rotation sites, medication management clinics, and psychotherapy. Supervision is provided by senior clinicians in all areas.
- The facilitation of confidence in one's capacity as a psychiatric clinician capable of providing continuity of care across a spectrum of clinical services, using alternative management techniques for inpatient hospitalization, and becoming familiar with the managerial role of the psychiatrist on an interdisciplinary team.
- The acquisition of the requisite skills to perform the various psychotherapies (individual, insight-oriented, group, family, and cognitive behavioral), manage chronically ill patients in an outpatient setting, and implement psychosocial treatments in community settings.
Journal Club. The PG3 class is charged with running the journal club. Once a month, the residents review a specific scientific paper using evidence based principals and consult with an expert faculty member for discussion. Dr. Olusola Ajilore is the faculty mentor for journal club.
Postgraduate Year 1
Our PG-1 year is based on a 13 block schedule, each 4 weeks long. Interns spend 6 block/months on medicine and neurology and 7 block/months in psychiatry.
· Synthesis of an identity as a competent and empathic physician during a four-month rotation on medicine or pediatrics at the UIC Hospital or the Jesse Brown VA Medical Center Hospital. The rotation is usually divided into two to three months on the general medicine or pediatric unit and one to two months on the ambulatory service.
· Development of knowledge and enhancement of skills in the diagnosis and treatment of neurological disorders. The resident spends a total of two months on inpatient neurology.
· Development of knowledge and skills of psychiatric assessment, triage, and immediate intervention and treatment during the two months in the psychiatric admitting clinics and emergency rooms at the UIC Hospital and Jesse Brown VA Hospital. Emphasis is on learning how to interview effectively, conduct a mental status examination, and complete a detailed psychiatric history.
· Acquiring knowledge and understanding of community agencies and resources, such as the state hospital system, community mental health clinics, detoxification centers, half-way houses, and nursing homes.
· Development of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that begin to establish the core knowledge base for the diagnosis, treatment, and case management of psychiatric disorders. The resident spends four months on the psychiatric inpatient services at UIC Hospital and at Jesse Brown VA Hospital.
Teaching Call. The new resident is paired with a more advanced resident for the first four times being on-call in psychiatry. This helps the new resident gain confidence in his or her ability to clinically assess psychopathology and make dispositions. After this month, residents have access to the back-up resident and to the attending on-call for clinical consultation.
Morning Report. Residents on the Emergency Service and Inpatient Service attend morning report Monday through Friday from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. Faculty and PGY-4 residents involved in the Emergency Room and Intake Services conduct this report. The time is divided between review of clinical information and didactic presentations. Residents summarize their emergency room activities at this time. Emphasis is placed on case presentation and formulation, differential diagnosis, case management, and disposition issues. The didactic component consisted of planned lectures and case-based learning.
Postgraduate Year 2
In the second year, residents spend the majority of their clinical time on inpatient units and begin to learn inpatient treatment of adults, children, and adolescents. Residents have varied experiences in the several inpatient settings.
Three assignments are at UIC hospital with adults: the Mood/Anxiety service, the Women's Mental Health service, and the Psychotic Disorders service. There is also an assignment on the Department of Child and Family Services (DCFS) Child and Adolescent unit. The other assignments are the Jesse Brown VA Hospital, MacNeal Hospital (community-based), and Madden Mental Health Center (state hospital). Each unit has a different patient population and length of stay. Residents receive direct supervision on all units.
Residents spend one month each on the consult-liaison services at UIC and Jesse Brown VA Hospital as part of the multidisciplinary teams proving consultation to medical/surgical services.
Residents also begin their outpatient psychotherapy experience by seeing 2-3 patients a week in the clinic. Residents have weekly supervision of these cases with experienced psychotherapists.
· The acquisition of knowledge and proficiency in the diagnosis and treatment of seriously disturbed patients in the inpatient setting.
· The formation of an identity as a psychiatrist by developing sensitivity and empathy, and tolerance of different opinions and attitudes about mental illness and treatment. This is accomplished by relating to other mental health professionals, appreciating social and cultural factors that influence behavior, and gaining an appreciation of one's strengths and limitations.
· The understanding of psychodynamic principles and the goals of psychodynamic psychotherapy in both the inpatient and outpatient settings.
· The acquisition of knowledge and skills in the use of various biological treatments, including ECT.
· Development of knowledge, skills, and attitudes that begin to establish the core knowledge base for the diagnosis, treatment, and case management of psychiatric disorders. The resident spends four months on the psychiatric inpatient services at UIC Hospital and at Jesse Brown VA Hospital.
· Development of skills appropriate to the practice of consultation-liaison psychiatry. Residents rotate through a one month consultation-liaison services at both UIC Hospital and Jesse Brown VA Hospital.
Morning Report. Residents on the Emergency Service and Inpatient Service attend morning report Monday through Friday from 8:00 to 9:00 a.m. Faculty and PGY-4 residents involved in the Emergency Room and Intake Services conduct this report. The time is divided between review of clinical information and didactic presentations. Residents summarize their emergency room activities at this time. Emphasis is placed on case presentation and formulation, differential diagnosis, case management, and disposition issues. The didactic component consisted of planned lectures and case-based learning.
Curriculum Overview
New for 2016
Clinician Educator (CE) Track

• 2 residents per year in PGY-2-PGY-4 (maximum of 6)
• Application during PG-1 year
• Formal didactics on education topics (e.g., lecture preparation, curriculum design, education research)
• Requirement to provide formal teaching, such as medical students, junior residents, and other medical professionals
• Requirement to be involved in additional educational administration (such as curriculum review)
• Requirement to complete a scholarly project (e.g., poster, publication, workshop presentation at national meeting)
• Linkage with a Clinician Educator Faculty mentor

Educational Goals and Philosophy
The mission of the UIC Psychiatry Residency Training Program is to provide high-quality education and training. Our program aims to train psychiatrists who will become astute diagnosticians with a comprehensive understanding of human behavior from a variety of perspectives. Additionally, residents leave with the skills and competence to provide quality psychiatric care using appropriate modalities.
Our training program is based on the principle that all residents should have broadly ranged clinical rotations, opportunities to function in a variety of clinical settings, formal experiences in a wide range of subspecialty areas, and opportunities to pursue postgraduate fellowships and research career development. We also educate our residents in the current trends in psychiatry, particularly with regard to social and community psychiatry, neuropsychiatry, psychotic disorders, women's mental health, and mood and anxiety disorders.
Trainees are encouraged to be curious, to question and synthesize information, and to take on more responsibility and function with an increasing degree of independence. The underlying assumption of the training program is that four years of training in a general psychiatry program can provide a baseline breadth and depth of education and skills. The education of a psychiatrist only begins during the training years and continues beyond the residency.
Learning is a life-long process. Education and training can occur only on the fertile ground of clinical excellence and in an atmosphere where advancement of knowledge is encouraged. Partnerships and collegiality between faculty and residents promote an environment where education flourishes. Our faculty members encourage individual initiative and motivation, and the program is designed to meet the general as well as specific needs and interests of individual residents.
The four-year curriculum is designed to emphasize the resident's responsibility for psychopharmacological treatment, psychotherapy, and case management. Clinical experiences foster increasing responsibility and autonomy as training progresses. Whether care occurs in the emergency room, inpatient unit, or outpatient setting, the training program offers a clinical sequence with broad-based clinical opportunities and experiences. Dedicated faculty members provide supervision of all clinical activities.
As we prepare our residents for a future that emphasizes developments in the neurosciences, we continue our emphasis on the in-depth understanding of the psychotherapies.
Please see the links to the left that cover the specific year curriculum and seminars.
Additional Features of the Program
Call. Currently the overnight and weekends at the UIC Medical Center and Jesse Brown VA are covered by a combination of a nightfloat, short call, and weekend call shifts. The nightfloat rotation runs Sun-Thur, 8pm-8am. Residents are not scheduled for daytime clinical rotations during nightfloat. Short call is Mon-Thur, 4:30pm-8pm. Weekends are covered by a series of call shifts. Friday call is 4:30pm-8am. Saturday is covered by two shifts, 8am-8pm and 8pm-8am. Sunday is covered by one shift, 8am-8pm.
Supervision. Residents have on-site faculty supervision for each clinical assignment throughout the four years. In addition, each PGY-2 resident is assigned an outpatient supervisor for his/her ongoing psychotherapy cases. PGY-3 and 4 residents are assigned individual supervisors for dynamic therapy, cognitive/behavioral psychotherapy and outpatient child & adolescent cases.
Residency Education and Training Committee Meeting. The residency training director holds a one-hour meeting twice a month that is open to faculty and residents for the purpose of reviewing curriculum, policies, clinical sites, and seminars.
Clinical Case Conference.This weekly conference at the University Inpatient Unit is attending by residents rotating on inpatient psychiatry, emergency psychiatry and consult-liaison. Residents rotate presenting a recent patient with faculty discussion and review of relevant literature.
Chief Resident's Meeting. The two Chief Residents meet weekly with all the residents to discuss ongoing projects, review current concerns and to convey information. They also serve as the resident liaison to the faculty.
Journal Club. Once a month, residents review a specific scientific paper using evidence based principals and consult with an expert faculty member for discussion. In addition there are journal clubs sponsored by clinical sections within the Department of Psychiatry.
Grand Rounds/Residency Forum. Wednesday afternoon is devoted to educational meetings, case conferences, forums, and grand rounds. The series includes outside speakers, faculty speakers, and clinically oriented sessions organized by residents and service chiefs.
Medical Student Teaching. All residents participate in teaching medical students on each clinical rotation. A course on teaching skills is provided. Residents may also elect to give selected lectures in medical student courses or to teach a small group of first-year and/or second-year medical students as part of the Essentials of Clinical Medicine course.
Research. We encourage residents to do research. Residents who are interested in a specific research project should identify faculty with similar interests. Residents with prior research experience are encouraged to begin linking to faculty members early in their residency. Although clinical research can be conducted at any time during residency training, specific time can be allocated in the fourth year. Our department has been successful in stimulating the research interests of our residents. Easy access to faculty who can serve as mentors has facilitated this process.
Please see the link at "Research" in the left-hand menu for more information
Retreats. Retreats for residents only and for residents and faculty together serve to promote professional development and provide a forum for discussion of resident issues across a broad spectrum of topics. PGY-1 residents also enjoy a team-building wilderness retreat during orientation.
Departmental Libraries. The department has several libraries. The Jack Weinberg library at the Psychiatric Institute maintains a wide range of psychiatric journals and books, over 400 videotape titles, has a librarian and four computers for Medline searchers. The Edward E. Byars library is located at the Neuropsychiatric Institute, where the residents have their offices. It has a collection of the most-used psychiatric reference books and texts for the residents' immediate reference.

This is the travel speaker that uses any resonant surface to project music 360�. When placed on counters, tables, shelves, or glass, it produces, robust sound that implies a full-range stereo cabinet speaker has been hidden nearby. Its vibration resonance technology produces a frequency response of 80Hz to 18KHz for reverberating lows and crisp highs--a wooden tabletop will yield different nuances of sound than a glass tabletop. At only 2 1/4" high x 2" diameter, it fits easily into a laptop bag or carry-on. An included 4' long cord splits into USB for charging and 1/8" stereo plug. It also accepts a microSD memory card for independently playing MP3s. Its rechargeable battery provides up to 10 hours of operation from a two-hour charge via USB. (11 1/2 oz.)

Room filling? Perhaps a bathroom
By Bryan
from Houston
Best Uses
Easy to use and set up. Holds charge good. Not very loud at all. You have to get incredibly creative when you use this. Put in corners or in an area where it will bounce off walls/cabinets, etc. Incredibly quite, and incredibly disappointing otherwise.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Interesting gadget
By Murph
from Portland, OR
It's really the driver portion of a speaker (Brits would call it the motor) without the cone section that actually moves the air and creates sound. There is a gel pad on the bottom that enables an airtight attachment to a smooth radiating surface. The gel pad is sticky but is easily cleaned when it picks up debris. Glass surfaces seem to work the best, followed by hardwoods (I recommend cherry). It's smaller than packing along a set of speakers with an iPhone/iPod connector. For casual listening only.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

' went to last night's game. I left after the second period ended. With the Sabres of 2005-06 and 2006-07, I would have stayed because they could have pulled it out. But this team is different. They seem to be content with losing when they are down 3-0.'
Archives for 2008
Sabres can't bust the Caps
Locker room revised
'Following Buffalo's dismal 4-2 loss to the Washington Capitals on Tuesday night, Ruff revamped the dressing room moving the majority of players' stalls. "We put some different voices next to different guys," Ruff said.'
Another atrocious loss for Sabres
'When fourth-line journeyman Matt Ellis, not Jochen Hecht, Derek Roy or any of the Sabres' other high-profile players, became the team's best forward early in an atrocious 4-2 loss Tuesday to the scorching Washington Capitals, the game was over.'
Sabres lifeless in loss
'There was a commercial timeout with about two minutes left in the second period, and the 18,690 fans in HSBC Arena were restless. They were giving mock cheers to Ryan Miller for making routine saves, and they were booing the Sabres for being in a 3-0 hole.'
Top centers told to improve or sit
'"We'll take them out of the lineup. Some of them will come out. That's not an idle threat, either. If you don't want to compete, if Matt Ellis wants to compete harder and Adam Mair wants to compete harder, then we'll play the guys that want to compete harder. Then they can make a decision if they want to compete hard. That's the only fair thing to do."'
Lackadaisical play continues to dog Buffalo Sabres
'"I thought our defense played well, but the effort by our forwards — you can take a couple guys out of there like (Adam) Mair, (Paul) Gaustad, (Matt) Ellis — but if Jochen Hecht isn't our best player and Derek Roy isn't our best player, we don't have a chance of winning. It's disappointing, frustrating, upsetting, and we're not going to hide from it."'
Sabres out of tricks, and it's early
'Buffalo got outworked, and simply looked outclassed. And it wasn't just Alexander Ovechkin who looked head and shoulders above the Sabres.'
Wednesday's Washington Coverage
Theodore Slams the Door (Washington Post)
'Exorcising some demons' (Washington Times)
Photo gallery (WashingtonCaps.com)
Photo gallery (Sabres.com)
Photo gallery (Buffalo News)
Backstrom and Theodore lift Capitals to 4-2 win
'"At this stage of the season, where we're sitting, we need good things to happen," Miller said. "We have to get into games early, and start learning and adapting, myself included."'
Washington 4, Buffalo 2
'Adam Mair and Clarke MacArthur each scored a goal while Ryan Miller gave up three goals on 30 shots for the Sabres, who have dropped four of their last five.'
Caps Shut Down Sabres 4-2
'Adam Mair finally got Buffalo on the board 7:41 into the third when Adam Mair beat Theodore for his fifth goal of the season. Both teams traded goals inside the game's final minute. Washington struck first thanks to a Boyd Gordon empty-netter, and Clarke Macarthur followed that up by scoring with only 11 seconds remaining to make it a 4-2 final.'
Ruff holds forwards accountable
'"That's not an idle threat either," Ruff said in his post-game press conference. "We will take them out of the lineup. Some of them will come out."'
Wednesday's Portland Coverage
Player Bobbleheads Are Back! (PortlandPirates.com)
Pominville hoping he's licked his slump
'"I think once you get out there and get on a roll your confidence just builds," said Pominville, who had 34 goals and 68 points in 2006-07. "You think you're capable of doing so many things out there. You try to build off that."'
Sabres fans look forward to the new year
'Just what you've always wanted: A Top Ten list just in time for 2009. As part of my personal new year's resolutions, I present this list of the top ten things Sabres fans get to look forward to in the new year. Now, if you don't mind, I'm going to go channel the spirit of David Letterman.'

Below are reviews of the city of Murfreesboro, TN from an actual visitor's perspective.
Met with family to attend graduation at MTSU. Happy time. Ate at Samurai Japanese Steak House, it was delicious, and we also went to Chicago Pizza which was wonderful gathering for us all. We will have good memories of our visit to Murfreesboro.
Plenty of shopping and dining choices. Less traffic and congestion than Nashville.
Lots of nearby restaurants and shopping. We were attending a soccer tournament in Smyrna, which was only 10-15 minutes away by interstate highway. In spite of the new roads and 4+ lane highways, we were caught in two traffic jams.
Nice town.

Kleckner: Democratic candidates believe your voice counts
November 4, 2012
Mitt Romney said in the first debate that he doesn't like the direction that America is taking. I couldn't agree more, although our perspectives are completely opposite. Depending upon who gets elected, the United States will be on one of two diverse paths. One path continues to consolidate power and wealth in the hands of a few. The other is a return to a nation where everyone has equal opportunity to grow and thrive.
The consolidation of power started when lobbyists started writing the laws rather than congressmen. Industries hire lobbyists for one reason, to get laws passed that benefit them. A prime example is the petroleum industry which receives billions in subsidies even though they are making record profits. Many tax deductions are written that only the wealthy can access. Ann Romney's show horse took a $77,000 tax deduction for 2010.
Now that the Supreme Court ruled that corporations can spend unlimited money to influence elections (Citizens United), an individual such as Sheldon Adelson, casino owner, can donate 10 million to a super PAC that will run negative ads, using misleading information to influence the election. Getting elected has become a process of who has more money and who can buy more ad time. Since political donations from businesses outnumber individual donations by a 15-1 margin, it is not surprising that many politicians are deep in the pockets of corporations. Have you noticed that every Republican candidate quotes the same party rhetoric? Not an independent voice in the crowd, because the RNC would stop funding them. Unless we get money out of politics, we will no longer have a democracy, no matter which party gets elected.
Mitt Romney will continue tax cuts for the wealthy, tax shelters that only benefit the rich, subsidies for select corporations, and condone hiding income in offshore accounts. All this will grow the debit exponentially as it did under Republican Presidents Reagan, Bush I, and Bush II. See the debt chart: http://jobsanger.blogspot.com/2011/11/gop-tries-to-blame-obama-for-15.html. Romney's solution to the deficit is to cut government programs, such as food stamps, that benefit the middle class and poor people, which is effectively a tax increase. He and Ryan want to privatize Medicare through a voucher program which experts say will not cover the same level of care we currently have and ultimately cost anyone under 55 years old $6,000 or more a year. They support subsidies for the oil industry, but oppose for wind and solar. If there is no equal opportunity for all industries, how can we expect equal opportunity for us as individuals?
Republicans believe it is government versus business. During Paul Ryan's convention speech, he said "We do not need a government to direct us." Surprising talk from someone who spent the majority his adult life in government positions and seeks to impose his views of abortion and same sex marriage on us through legislation. Ryan wants you to believe he is a fiscal conservative, but apparently it just started once the Democrats took office. Ryan voted for both wars President Bush started, Tarp, Part D Medicare, the 2008 auto bailout, and the $700 billon bank bail out. Never opposing or even speaking out against increasing the deficit during those years, it is hard for me to trust him now.
At the Democratic convention, Bill Clinton said "Democrats believe we are all in this together, is a far better philosophy than you are on your own." We know that government working with the private sector can build a better, stronger society. Republicans, on the other hand, seem to believe their only way to get their candidates elected is to divide people using religion, rich versus poor, race discrimination, sex inequality, and state versus federal. If that doesn't work, limit who can vote based on voter registration laws. Republicans got elected in 2010 on the promise of job creation, but instead we got was a consolidated effort to oppose anything President Obama proposed.
Yes, I am worried about the direction America is headed. David Siegel and the Koch Brothers believe they can consolidate their control over America, if they can get Romney elected, even if it takes threatening their employees with layoffs. A vote for Romney is a vote for a society where your voice no longer matters. Have your voice heard. Vote to elect Democratic candidates that believe your voice counts, and that the poor and middle class also deserve representation in our government. A vote for Obama and Biden is a return to civility, partnerships between business and government, and equal opportunity for all.
Bill Kleckner, Silverthorne
