In 2020, two new courses open to both trainees and faculty were launched via videoconferencing. The recorded sessions are currently available on the Academic Institute’s website.
A seminar series entitled, “Key Elements of Clinical Research, details essential elements of planning and conducting clinical research including clinical trial design, working with industry, project presentation and grantsmanship.
The “Concept to Commercialization” seminar lays the foundation for translating key laboratory discoveries to clinical uses that improve patient lives. It provides a practical and efficient process for researchers to bring their innovations to the market.
