Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU Health) Program
About This Program
The Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Fellowship Program at OHSU encourages fellows to incorporate the humanities into their study and practice. This means reading literature, poetry, comics, watching TV shows and films, and discussing their interests with colleagues. This also involves co-reading or watching shows/movies that captivate the young people with whom they are privileged to work. Many fellows-no matter their background-pursue creative outlets (drawing their own comics & writing).
