LETTER FROM THE CHAIR (continued)
Dr. Kreiser has broad research interests and experience, and is focusing on comorbid-ity among patients diagnosed with an autism spectrum disorder, including comorbid anxiety disorders. In addition to her exciting research interests, Dr. Kreiser is a superb clinician who translates her understanding of cognitive neuroscience into innovative interventions. Dr. Kreiser has joined several collaborators within our Department, especially Drs. Urbano, Hartmann and Flaherty. Dr. Danya Lewis attended medical school in Albany, New York and is a graduate of our own residency program in Psychiatry; thus, she is well known to, and respected by, our faculty. Dr. Lewis practiced psychiatry in rural Ohio for about a decade before taking on the academic challenges of a medical school Department of Psychiatry. As the sole psychiatrist for a large geographic area, she provided psychiatric assessment and care to a population ranging from childhood to senescence. Her experiences make her an ideal supervisor for our trainees, and she can work comfortably in the ED, Consultation Service and inpatient services of Sentara Norfolk General Hospital, our primary teaching hospital, as well as in our outpatient faculty practice. I am also delighted to announce that, after many years educational service to our Department, Dr. Gregory Briscoe of VAMC-Hampton will be handing over the reins of Clerkship Director to our own Dr. Justin Petri. Dr. Briscoe distinguished himself as a national leader in medical student education and is serving as the President of the professional society representing Third Year Psychiatry Medical Student Clerkship Directors across the country. Dr. Petri is highly regarded by our medical students and contributed substantially to the high percentage of the graduating EVMS medical school class who chose residency training in our specialty. Dr. Petri is a superb teacher and clinical supervisor who will lead exciting educational research efforts in Psychiatry, particularly with respect to identifying the curricular requirements for the 21st century psychiatrist. Another valued faculty member, Dr. Shriti Patel, has agreed to serve as the Associate Director of Residency Training under the tutelage of our current Residency Director, Dr. Paul Sayegh. Please enjoy this latest edition of this magazine. You will see that we excel in our teaching, caring and discovering! Stephen I. Deutsch, M.D., Ph.D. Anne Armistead Robinson Endowed Chair in Psychiatry Professor and Chairman, Department of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences
