Philip Cawkwell (2019)

As a resident in the MGH/McLean PSTP my research focused on understanding factors that influence functional outcomes for individuals with first psychotic episodes. I worked with Ann Shinn, Dost Ongur, Mei Hall, and the McLean OnTrack first episode program.

By conducting large-scale studies of this population, we have multiple papers in process that explore how diagnosis, treatment, substance use, and trauma impact engagement with treatment and functional outcomes. With support from the PSTP, I have been able to present my research at the APA and was fortunate to be awarded a spot in the APA Research Colloquium for Junior Investigators.

Having completed residency, I now plan to complete a fellowship in child and adolescent psychiatry (2019-2021) as I work to determine how best to combine my clinical and research interests.
