Why
Brigham?
The Brigham and Women’s Hospital Harvard Medical School Psychiatry Residency Program is devoted to excellence in education with a mission to train the next generation of leaders in academic psychiatry. Built upon the strong medical psychiatry and psychodynamic foundations of the Harvard Longwood Psychiatry Residency Program, we are committed to providing all the tools necessary for our residents to tackle the most difficult healthcare challenges of our time.


"Brigham is a better fit than I could have imagined from any residency program. The residents here are curious, supportive of each other, and passionate about progressing distinct aspects of psychiatry. Time and again, the residency leadership demonstrates that they are incredibly invested in us through continually improving education, promoting our psychiatric projects, and protecting our lives outside of medicine. We learn not only from highly-specialized Brigham psychiatrists but also psychologists, neurologists, neurosurgeons, neuroscientists from the Harvard community. There is a great diversity of interesting ideas and cultures in this community, and it is easy to connect with peers and mentors we find inspirational."
