Abstract

The United States is facing a severe shortage of academic child and adolescent psychiatrists. This article reviews a model integrated pathway to improve recruitment. The authors review training portals for research in child and adolescent psychiatry. There is a summary of a focus group discussion of the advantages and disadvantages of the Integrated Research Pathway in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (IRPCAP). The University of Colorado and Yale University have initiated integrated pathways. These pathways integrate research into a 5 or 6-year residency to train the next generation of physician-scientists. The innovative Integrated Research Pathway in Child and Adolescent Psychiatry training model has enhanced recruitment of talented physician-scientists. Challenges include long-term financial viability and incorporating all training requirements. Novel pilot models of training are encouraged.
