Scientific Sessions and Events for Residents

APA has planned a full schedule of events for residents so they can meet and socialize with one another, ask questions, share information, and learn more about their chosen profession. The registration fee for the annual meeting includes admission (on a first-come, first-served basis) to all scientific sessions (for example, symposia, workshops, lectures, and forums), except courses, and other events like product theaters. Here is a sample of events for residents. The complete Resident Track is posted at http://annualmeeting.psychiatry.org/residents.
