Clinical and Translational Research Boot Camp
The Education Core is leading the development of several "mini-courses" in
areas relevant to clinical and translational research. These mini-courses
will typically consist of 2-5 one hour lectures and serve as an introduction
to basic principles in each area. Relevant areas include (but are not
limited to) biostatistical concepts, clinical epidemiology and study
design, ethical issues in research on human subjects, grantsmanship,
randomized clinical trials, regulatory issues, and scientific writing. The
plan is to offer these mini-courses in an intensive one-week "clinical and
translational research boot camp" in September of each year. The lectures
will be recorded and made available to those who cannot attend.
The idea behind the boot camp is to provide an orientation to clinical and
translational research for incoming and novice researchers in a relatively
short but intensive period of time so that supervisors can plan for release
time to encourage attendance.
