Out for dinner with the Royal College of Psychiatrists Psychiatric Resident Doctors' Committee (PRDC) - we've had a great first day of our annual meeting, it's so exciting to meet so many new reps and say goodbye to the amazing Rosemary Gordon as she comes to the end of her term of being a brilliant chair!

I am an Older Adult Psychiatry trainee. I chose this specialty because I enjoy working with complexity, in an MDT manner, in a holistic way and because my research interest is neuroimaging in dementia. #choosepsychiatry

#choosepsychiatry - I first got interested in mental health when I was a student BSMS - working with Sarah Garfinkel and Hugo D. Critchley - then moved to #Manchester and did Foundation with Bolton NHS Foundation Trust before moving into an ACF and now higher training in the North West

I'm absolutely delighted to see that this innovative opportunity is being advertised. Hopefully more regions will follow suit. If you're a London Trainee Psychiatric Resident Doctors' Committee (PRDC) then please consider applying!
