Supporting Psychiatric Research

The American Psychiatric Association Foundation works closely with the American Psychiatric Association Research team to leverage data to strengthen, inform and evaluate our public education programs. The Foundation also funds important research training programs for psychiatrists, including:

• Research Colloquium for Junior Investigators
  Held each year at the APA Annual Meeting. Approximately 30-50 mentees from the US, Canada and around the world are trained annually.

• APA Foundation Psychiatric Research Fellowship
  Instituted in 2016, the Fellowship provides two years of funding support to junior investigators from traditionally underrepresented groups.
