The Mentored Clinical Research Training Program (MCRTP) offers junior physicians at Weill Cornell and Houston Methodist a fast-track program to acquire the skillset to develop a clinical research project proposal and embark on a clinical research career pathway.
The MCRTP begins with an intensive, four-day workshop, held during July in NYC. Drawing on courses adapted from the Weill Cornell CTSC, the workshop provides an introduction to the foundations of clinical research, including research design and methodologies, data management and analysis, and the regulatory process. Following the workshop, trainees will develop their own clinical research projects with guidance from experienced clinical researchers at Weill Cornell and/or Houston Methodist.
