Haig Goenjian, MD, Psychiatrist & Principal Investigator, Collaborative Neuroscience Network
Haig Goenjian is a psychiatrist and a Principal Investigator (PI) who works in a multitude of settings, primarily research. He graduated with a BA in Philosophy from UCLA in 2005, received his Medical Degree from Tulane University in 2011, and completed psychiatric residency at Harbor UCLA in 2016. His current work as a PI entails conducting clinical trials on a vast array of psychiatric treatments. He also does both inpatient and outpatient work.
