News and Congratulations
The CTSC is excited to announce an interesting opportunity to advance our students careers in clinical and translational science research with the NIH Lasker Clinical Research Scholars Program. This opportunity is presented to us by the NIH; it is ideal for early-stage, independent clinical researchers.
Scholars will be provided with over 5 years of full-time, funded research in the NIH intramural program for tenure-track level clinical investigators, followed by 3 years of NIH funds at an extramural medical center/research institute or by continuation in the NIH Intramural program. Past scholar recipients include winners of the Nobel Prize, the National Medal of Science and the Presidential Early Career Awards, amongst other many high honors.
Qualifications/Eligibility: Candidates must have an MD, MD/PhD, DO, DDS, DMD, RN/PhD, or equivalent clinical doctoral degree from an accredited domestic or foreign institution and must have a professional license to practice in the United States
The deadline for applications is August 30, 2019. The general start date for the positions is summer 2020, but this is flexible.
