Program
Description
The
WSU/Detroit Medical Center Addiction Fellowship offers clinical training in treatment of addictive disorders to
physicians who have completed a psychiatry residency program. It is grounded in a
closely supervised comprehensive clinical experience, encompassing the full
spectrum from screening and diagnosis to chronic treatment for a broad range
of patients, including those with major psychiatric and medical
co-morbidities. Training in screening, diagnosis, psychopharmacology,
consultation-liaison, crisis intervention, in- and outpatient treatment, and
research methodology is conducted in problem-based contexts. Fellows who
select the two-year academic track begin their research activity along with
their clinical experience in the first year, continuing this and other faculty
development through the following year. Participation in a weekly core lecture
and discussion course, weekly Grand Rounds, journal club and a research
seminar, as well as regional and national
professional meetings complete the educational experience.
Faculty
This
fellowship employs a large multidisciplinary faculty including, as a central
core, nationally renowned clinical and pre-clinical researchers under the
leadership of Charles R. Schuster, former Director of NIDA, as well as faculty
members from the Departments of Pharmacology, Psychology, Internal Medicine,
Community Medicine, Social Work and Psychiatry. Fellows are encouraged to
interact with senior faculty throughout the training program.
Facilities
Clinical
facilities include an inpatient detoxification unit (34 beds) and 180
psychiatric beds in an eight hospital medical center campus, including a
Veterans Administration Medical Center. Also available on this campus are a
large outpatient program, a methadone
maintenance program, buprenorphine maintenance and court-referred addiction
treatment programs, a crisis center, and a psychiatric ER. The Department of
Psychiatry has established Clinical Research Divisions on Substance Abuse,
Mood and Anxiety, Schizophrenia, and Sleep Disorders, with clinical and
research components represented in the medical center and throughout the
metropolitan Detroit area.
