title: Public-academic liaisions in psychiatric residency training in New York State.
abstract: Many public-academic liaisions for training in psychiatry have developed in New York State over the past 40 years. Their goals have ranged from broadening residents' exposure to community patients to recruiting for state service. The state has developed explicit guidelines for these liaisons to promote fairness among university participants and promulgate standards for their involvement. Currently, all 12 medical schools in the state participate in such liaisions, which provide residencies in general psychiatry and fellowships in child and adolescent, forensic, geriatric, public, rehabilitation, and research psychiatry. The total cost to the state is about $10.5 million per year.
