Two faculty in the Yale Department of Psychiatry have been chosen to receive the Nancy C.A. Roeske, MD, Certificate of Recognition for Excellence in Medical Student Education from the American Psychiatric Association (APA). <\/p>\n
Carmen Black, MD, assistant professor of psychiatry, and Cynthia D. Conrad, MD, PhD, clinical instructor in psychiatry, are the 2023-2024 recipients of the award at Yale. <\/p>\n
The award was established in honor of Nancy C.A. Roeske, MD, and serves as a tribute to her unique and creative contributions to psychiatric education. It is awarded to APA members who have made outstanding and sustaining contributions to medical student education. <\/p>\n

In this capacity she teaches a core clerkship lecture about historically informed, evidence-based principles supporting the de-policing of hospital medicine. <\/p>\n

She tutors medical students during their psychiatric clerkship, stressing the value of biopsychosocial approach to patient care.
