Representing a shared desire to improve rural health through research, the Washington University in St Louis Institute of Clinical and Translational Sciences (ICTS) and University of Missouri School of Medicine co-funded the Rural Health Research Center at MU. Four strategies are being used to enhance research in rural communities: fostering collaboration through a primary care research network
Cheryl L. Thompson, Tessianna A. Misko and Mark R. Chance Abstract/Background: An important part of biomedical research is the translation of discoveries into clinical or community applications that impact patient health. For a vast majority of clinical applications and sustainable community interventions, a time-tested way to get innovations to patients is through licensing of the technology and
Coaching is a powerful force for catalyzing the success of early-career researchers at the University of Minnesota. UMN CTSA scholars who’ve received coaching are advancing their careers in ways that align with their values, separate from external pressures. For example, it gave former KL2 scholar Kate Diaz Vickery, MD, MSc, the confidence and encouragement to lean into the community engagement
Koushik Paul — an alumnus of the University of Minnesota Clinical and Translational Science Institute's Pathways to Research Program (PReP) — is complementing his education at the University's Medical School with hands-on community engagement work. Paul and collaborators facilitate health fairs and roundtable discussions in partnership with the Little Earth community, an indigenous preference
The CTSA Center for Leading Innovation and Collaboration (CLIC) program has created the new NIH Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Visiting Scholars Program to help promote networking among KL2 Scholars. During the pandemic, KL2 Scholars are unable to visit other institutions or conferences to give presentations and network as they have in the past. This new program provides scholars
Learn how to leverage the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute’s (NHLBI) new translational grant funding programs to accelerate the development of your preclinical heart, lung, blood or sleep technology. The NHLBI recently launched the Catalyze program to empower and support translational research through a comprehensive suite of funding, technical services, training, and mentorship to
A team including UW Collaborative Center for Health Equity (CCHE) Director Sarah Esmond and All of Us Wisconsin (AoU) @ UW staff April Kigeya and Lucretia Sullivan Wade worked with community members from the Allied Wellness Center (AWC) to facilitate the recent launch of Community Health Workers (CHW) virtual training in Wisconsin. They were able to mobilize connections in the UW School of
This webinar will provide an overview of the STELLAR prototype– an interactive web-based system to assess the learning needs of the clinical and translational research workforce, a Self-career Training, Education, Life-long Learning Advancement Resource.
Tufts Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) launched Tufts CTSI I LEARN (https://ilearn.tuftsctsi.org), a modern, interactive online learning portal offering non-degree professional education and training opportunities in clinical and translational research. Tufts CTSI I LEARN includes live-streamed, blended synchronous and asynchronous courses, self-paced courses, and recorded seminars, workshops, and trainings to support the professional development of research stakeholders including investigators, coordinators, community members, and research participants. The user-friendly platform was built in the D2L Brightspace learning management system.
This training is geared specifically toward research teams. The session will examine implicit and explicit biases in research and provide strategies for researchers to be more diverse and inclusive in their research design and approaches. Presented by: Sylvia Burgess, PhD Senior Partner One Step at a Time Consulting, LLC
This four-part, 8-hour unit provides a foundational understanding of implicit and explicit bias and their implications for service delivery. Participants will explore their personal perceptions and assumptions, as well as those of their organizations, and learn strategies to integrate new information and thinking into their work. The training will build participant capacity to effectively
The Harvard Chan Bioinformatics Core is excited to expand our bioinformatics training program as part of a new collaboration with the Dana-Farber / Harvard Cancer Center (DF/HCC). We are looking for a bioinformatician to join our team in our efforts to provide education and analytical support to the Harvard community. The ideal candidate is enthusiastic about teaching (as demonstrated by their teaching experience), enjoys working in a collaborative environment, and has a background in high-throughput data analysis, specifically for next-generation sequencing (NGS) data. This role provides a unique and rewarding opportunity to train and support world-class researchers making a profound impact on human health.
Shortly after healthcare system M Health Fairview converted Bethesda into a COVID-19 hospital, they teamed up with the University of Minnesota CTSA. Together, the partners built a robust infrastructure for COVID-19 research, pursuing innovative ways to engage Bethesda patients in the research process and optimize the way studies are conducted.
The University of Florida CTSI has created an open-access online curriculum to educate community stakeholders in the basic principles of clinical research. The curriculum covers the topics of research ethics, types of research studies, informed consent, stakeholder engagement, cultural diversity, and big data, among other topics.
