BPS Congratulates Downstate Residents Who Competed in APA's Mindgames: Amjad Hindi, M. D., Payal Shah, M. D., and John Abulu, M. D.
Much like a popular television game show, MINDGAMES is a national team competition for residents at the APA Annual Meeting. The game pits residency programs against each other in a battle to final competition. Each general psychiatry residency program is qualified to compete for the coveted title of national champion and the bragging rights that comes with it. This competition is intended to be a fun and educational activity that tests medical knowledge and patient care. The exam questions are loosely based on the ABPN Part 1 content outline with additional neurology and psychiatry history questions.

Congratulations to the MINDGAMES finalists:
