Clinical/Translational and Public Health Research Training Track Program Overview

The Center for Advanced Research Training & Innovation (CARTI) is seeking applications for the 2023 Clinical/Translational & Public Health Research Training Track. This program provides training to UMB fellows and faculty in an early stage of their research career who are seeking foundational training in developing and executing a mentored clinical research project, including effectively communicating research to get published and funded.

This 7-month training program will include didactic instruction, experiential learning, grant writing training, and a capstone project. Upon completion of the didactic and experiential learning, scholars will have a research protocol for a clinical project that they are executing or will execute under the guidance of a mentor. Lastly, scholars will complete a capstone project which will consist of writing a grant application and participate in a mock study section review. CARTI scholars are required to complete each element of the training schedule. The proposed training schedule for CARTI scholars is as follows:
