Fellow Physician
Duke University
Megan Single, MD, a first-year child and adolescent psychiatry fellow at Duke University, holds a medical degree from the University of Kentucky and completed her general psychiatry residency at the University of Florida. Currently serving as AACAP's Jerry M. Wiener Resident Member of Council, she actively contributes to the organization's medical student & resident, psychotherapy, and training & education committees. Her long-term goal is to work as a psychiatrist across the lifespan, with a balance between early intervention that may alter the course of a life and later-life support where helping patients understand the past can guide them through the present. She is interested in pediatric catatonia, NMDA encephalitis, consult-liaison psychiatry, and work with neurodevelopmentally different patients. She also envisions working with the severely mentally ill adult population through street psychiatry, an assertive community treatment model, and forensic work. She hopes to tie all of this together through pursuing her interest in ethics and writing.
