James Lee, MD, one of our Consultation-Liaison Psychiatry Fellows, has received Academic Psychiatry’s Trainee Editorial Fellowship. Congratulations, James! This award is an opportunity for psychiatry residents and fellows with demonstrated interest in education, scholarship, and leadership to expand their skills in scholarly publication. During this one-year fellowship, trainees will learn about and participate in peer reviewing, decision making, and editorial writing for an academic medical journal.

James completed his residency with PBSCI and a year as Harborview inpatient chief. He is grateful for his past educational experiences, including Yale College, where he majored in Cognitive Science (with a focus in canine cognition), and Mayo Clinic School of Medicine for medical school. He has received the American Psychiatric Association Diversity Leadership Fellowship, the Association for Academic Psychiatry Resident Psychiatric Educator Award, the Paul Kalanithi Writing Award, and the Stephen C. Hofmann Award. James has also been published in New England Journal of Medicine and Academic Medicine. Alongside his dedication toward LGBTQ+ and public psychiatry, he is an advocate for medical humanities as an actor, violinist, and short story writer.
