Our goal is to provide training and education that will prepare individuals to function effectively on multidisciplinary research teams and to lead team efforts with the potential of translating research among basic science, patient oriented, and community disciplines. The array of training opportunities will include certificate programs, academic degree programs, and mentored clinical-translational career development opportunities. Potential trainees include high school students, undergraduate and graduate students at partnering academic institutions, post-doctoral fellows, junior and mid-career faculty, and workforce members who are actively engaged in research. We will feature programs as they become available.
Masters of Science in Clinical & Translational Science
The program and its curriculum are designed to offer appropriate training to individuals who have established skills and credentials as basic scientists, bioengineers, clinicians, and health care providers (nurses, nutritionists, psychologists, pharmacists, dentists, veterinarians, etc.).
Future Opportunties: Several new, innovative programs will be designed to provide investigators with the tools to bridge translation across laboratory, patient, and community arenas. These include: 1) a MS in Clinical & Translational Research that integrates and expands two existing masters programs; 2) a PhD in Translational Research that broadens the training of basic science PhD students; and 3) a PhD in Clinical & Translational Health Sciences for students in the health professions.
A seminar series on Clinical and Translation Research will be offered this fall.
Watch this space as these new opportunities become available.
There are a number of educational programs in the health field at MCW and other institutions in Milwaukee. These include degree-granting programs, certification programs, courses on specific topics, seminars, and high-school programs. If you would like a program added to this list, send an email to CTSI.
