Welcome Letter

Welcome to our new website. We offer Clinical Neurology and Psychiatry for Psychiatrists (CNPP), for psychiatrists preparing for their Board examination after their residency.

We pride ourselves on the course content, practicality and experience of our faculty, our real-time interactive audience response system, and our multiple original audiovisual vignettes. We offer attendees up-to-date, practical information and meaningful coaching. Our course is high-yield.

The Neurology section of CNPP provides a rich clinical experience in conditions psychiatrists are likely to encounter, in their practice or on their exams. This section includes classic but rarely seen disorders, such as Prader-Willi syndrome, Lesch-Nyhan syndrome, Huntington disease, and dementia with Lewy body disease.

The Psychiatry section of CNPP offers comprehensive, up-to-date reviews of a wide range of DSM 5 disorders, in the context of examination preparation and coaching. It also includes discussions of topics generally unfamiliar to attendees, including statistics, forensics and ethics, addiction, the CYP450 system, sleep disorders, and child and adolescent psychiatry. Rather than simply providing information in didactic formats, this section uses examination-type short-answer questions and the audience response system to review essential material. In addition, we have updated the course to include video-vignettes quizzes of psychiatric disorders. These quizzes provide an opportunity to prepare for a similar experience on a Board examination.

Thank you for visiting our website. Please contact Ms. Stacy Atkinson at 718-920-6674, or e-mail her at statkins@montefiore.org if you have additional questions.
