ABOUT THE PODCAST
Psychiatry Boot Camp is your crash course in how the brain works— and all the ways that it sometimes doesn’t. Hosted by psychiatrist and educator Dr. Mark Mullen, each episode features conversations with leading experts in the field breaking down everything from suicide risk and schizophrenia to catatonia and childhood anxiety. Originally designed to help new doctors prepare for residency, the show has since become a go-to for students, clinicians, and anyone curious about how psychiatry works in the real world.
Each episode pairs a world-class expert with thoughtful, practical teaching. Whether you’re gearing up for residency, deep in the field, or just tired of learning about mental health from TikTok, this podcast is your essential guide to psychiatry.
