CCTS Research Education, Training and Career Development Core
A transforming approach to education and training is required to accelerate the pace of discoveries in the life sciences and the rapid translation of these discoveries into clinical practice that results in improved patient outcomes. The Research Education, Training and Career Development Core is designed to enhance the development of future faculty members and to reengineer the training of future investigators in each step of clinical research, from the laboratory bench or basic population science research to the bedside and finally to practice in the community. The Training Core will bring together faculty and trainees from basic science and clinical departments, the graduate and medical schools, academia, health care delivery, and the biopharmaceutical industry.
