05 Oct Apply Now for CRISP and Build Your Clinical Research Skills
CRISP, the Clinical Research Intensive Summer Program, is accepting applications for the 2027 summer session. The program provides research fellows and early-career faculty who will have clinical investigation as a significant part of their careers with hands-on experience and key clinical research skills to accelerate their career development.
The in-person program will be held July 6–23, 2027, at the Fred Hutch Cancer Center in Seattle. Early career faculty, fellows and residents from all branches of medicine as well as non-physician clinical investigators are welcome to apply.
Working in small groups was very helpful. This hands-on time is high yield.
The course features:
- Clinical Biostatistics and Epidemiology
- Elective course on Quality Improvement or Clinical Study Design and Methods
- Enrichment lectures
- Lunches with experienced clinical investigators to discuss your individual projects
- Two optional minicourses: Introduction to R Programming and How to Mine the Electronic Medical Record
The enrichment lectures were outstanding and the material was not only relevant to career development but demystified so many things.
