Prepare to Lead Translational Research Teams
Baylor graduate students in their first or second year who are interested in a career focused on translating biomedical discoveries into molecular medicine advances to benefit human health are invited to apply for the Clinical Translational Research Certificate of Added Qualification (CTR-CAQ) program. Participants will acquire the foundational knowledge and professional skills required of effective leaders of translational research teams.
The CTR-CAQ is a two-year program run in coordination with our seven interdisciplinary Ph.D. programs so that it will not slow down your progress with your thesis research. You and your mentors will design your clinical translational research work so that it integrates with or complements your thesis research. Each year, 30 students will be selected to participate.
The CTR-CAQ program will be supported by an NRSA Institutional Predoctoral Training Grant (T32) from the National Institute of General Medical Sciences. We anticipate funding for eight students beginning in the summer of 2020. See the application for information on eligibility and to apply for support by the T32.
