The three trainees bested residents from Boston University and Virginia Tech-Carilion School of Medicine in a “Jeopardy”-like quiz game testing residents' knowledge of psychiatric diagnosis, neuropsychiatry, genetics, psychopharmacology, and psychodynamic psychotherapy, as well as general medical knowledge.
The game, now in its fourth year, was hosted by Glen Gabbard, M.D. Serving as judges in the competition were past APA President Michelle Riba, M.D., Charles Nemeroff, M.D., and Richard Balon, M.D.
Residents from Boston University were Rohit Chandra, M.D., Ana Ivkovic, M.D., and Mark Oldham, M.D. The training director there is Janet Osterman, M.D. The team from Virginia Tech-Carilion included Nina Khachiyants, M.D., Nitin Khadilkar, M.D., and Ronny Paul Meunier, M.D. The training director is Ben Borja, M.D.
The three teams were finalists in a competition that began earlier this year when residency teams of three members each from the United States and Canada took a time-limited online examination consisting of multiple-choice questions. The questions followed the ABPN Part I content outline.
The three top-scoring teams with the fastest posted time received a $4,000 grant from APA to send their teams to the final round of MindGames at the annual meeting. The process will begin again in 2011, and next year's finalists, who will compete at the 2011 annual meeting in Honolulu, Hawaii, will be announced in March 2011 at the annual meeting of the American Association of Directors of Psychiatric Residency Training.
