The Association of Directors of Medical
Student Education in Psychiatry is
pleased to announce the Junior Faculty
Teaching Award. The purpose of this
award is to recognize a promising early
career ADMSEP member who is already
demonstrating excellence in teaching,
mentoring and curricular innovations.
During these times of decreased funding
and competing priorities for faculty
time, this award will provide an
opportunity for a new educator to be
recognized for his/her accomplishments.
The award includes a plaque and a
monetary honorarium, which hopefully
will be used to help defray costs of
attending the upcoming ADMSEP annual
meeting.
Eligibility: Any full or
part-time Psychiatry faculty member, at
or below the rank of Assistant
Professor, may be nominated by the Chair
or the Chair's designee.
Candidates will be evaluated on the
basis of:
-Quality and breadth of
teaching -Educational endeavors
including administrative
responsibilities, curriculum innovations
and presentations at meetings.
-Awards/recognition of teaching
In addition to the Chair's (or
designee's) nomination letter,
candidates must submit a personal
statement describing their academic
activities and interests and why they
believe this award will assist their
careers. The candidate must also submit
an up to date curriculum vitae and an
Education Portfolio. Those who have
applied before are welcome to reapply.

Business Meeting Items
The
following items will be acted upon by
the membership at the business meeting
at the conclusion of the annual meeting
in Park City, Utah on June 23, 2007. All
ADMSEP members should make every effort
to attend the business meeting so we can
discuss these important issues.
1. Proposed Bylaws Change The Council
proposes that the fiscal year for ADMSEP
be changed from January 1 – December 31
to July 1 – June 30. This change
corresponds to the academic year and
will enable more efficient tracking of
membership dues. The change will take
effect on July 1, 2007.
2. Dues
Increase The Council proposes that
ADMSEP dues be increased to $295.00 per
year effective July 1, 2008. The dues
increase is needed to offset increasing
administrative and meeting expenses, as
well as increased expenses related to
ADMSEP’s involvement with other liaison
organizations. For more information

Column” in this issue of the newsletter.

going to teach, say what you want

PsychSIGN
(Psychiatry Student Interest Group
Network) invites ADMSEP member awareness
regarding their organization:
http://www.psychsign.org/
At the 2005 fall meeting in New York the
ADMSEP Council proposed an amendment to
the organization’s bylaws. The
proposed change would create a
membership category for residents.
The ADMSEP bylaws require that all
proposed changes be announced to the
membership at least 45 days prior to the
annual meeting. This web
announcement, along with an announcement
in the newsletter, serves as official
notice of the proposed change in the
bylaws. The proposal will be
discussed and voted upon during the
business meeting on Saturday, June 24,
2006 in Annapolis.
The proposal calls for the membership
category of the bylaws to be amended to
read “faculty and residents” are
eligible to join ADMSEP. Resident
members will pay annual dues of $20.00.
The dues payment will include access to
the listserv, the ADMSEP newsletter, and
the cost of meals at the annual meeting.
Resident membership will not include a
subscription to Academic Psychiatry.
Please join us for the
32nd ADMSEP Annual Meeting at the Loews
Annapolis Hotel, Annapolis, Maryland,
beginning Thursday, June 22, 2006 and
concluding Saturday, June 24, 2006.

The
ADMSEP listserv message archives
have been cleaned-up. That is, most
of the html formatting and other
cryptic clutter within the email
messages has been removed, providing
a for easier reading. Remember,
the archive can be searched by using
key words (see instructions on
start page), e.g. "frontal lobe"
or "psychotherapy".

Regarding the upcoming Annual

(June 12 - 14, 2003): poster
submissions has been extended until

emailed to
cutlerj@pi.cpmc.columbia.edu.
Abstracts should be no longer
than one page in length and should
include the following categories:
educational goals, method, results,
and conclusions. In some cases, it
may be more appropriate to include a
"description" section, in place of
the "method and results."

(links updated).

Several people have mentioned an
interest in having the old ADMSEP
listserv messages available for
on-demand browsing and searching,
i.e. being able to look for
discussions on certain topics.
Thanks to some new software this
interest is now a reality. You can
now look over the past 5 years worth
of listserv discussions online.
Since the listserv is for members
only, it begins in our pw protected
members-only area:
http://www.admsep.homestead.com/.
If you have forgotten the password,
just let us know.
I suggest you read the
directions on this web page before
beginning. And I must mention that
when you do load the actual archives
in your browser as instructed, it is
a big file, even with maximum
compression, and may take a few
minutes to open in your web browser.
Naturally, the faster your internet
connection, the faster it will open
(with broadband takes <1 min). I
will update this archive
periodically. If you have questions,
feel free to let
me
know. Thanks to Ruth Levine,
Jonathan Polan and others for their
ideas.
The deadline for submission of
abstracts for next year's annual
meeting is October 1. Presentation
formats include papers, workshops,
posters, debates, and panels.
Abstracts should be no longer than
one page in length and should
include a narrative description of
the content as well as educational
goals and objectives for the
presentation. Submissions may be
made via mail, fax, or email to:
