In July 1995, the American Association for Geriatric Psychiatry (AAGP) sponsored the first annual week-long Summer Research Institute (SRI) in Geriatric Psychiatry, at the University of California, San Diego. The NIMH-funded SRI was intended for promising postresidency and postdoctoral fellows, as well as junior faculty persons interested in research careers in geriatric psychiatry. The SRI focused on the tools needed to begin, maintain, and succeed on that career path and has been followed by continued communication between trainees and faculty. The SRI was highly successful, judging from the participants' evaluations, as well as the trainees' accomplishments in terms of publications and research funding during 1 year of follow-up. The SRI provides a useful model for an approach to bridging and shortening the transition period from fellowship to first research funding and of ensuring a continued flow of new investigators in geriatric psychiatry.
