12 Oct CTSI-MSTP Joint Sessions
The CTSI-MSTP joint sessions bring MSTP trainees and K awardees together to create a community of clinical and translational researchers. The objectives of the sessions are to provide insight into clinical and translational process and to provide the MSTP trainees and K awardees an opportunity to identify potential common research interests and future interactions.
The CTSI-MSTP joint session speakers are seasoned physician scientists who will present a lecture in their field that will address bench to bedside issues, followed by a Q&A and then a short, informal mixer among attendees. All sessions will be held in room MFRC3075 from 12:00-1:00pm (lunch will be provided).
