Clinical Research Faculty Mentoring Program
Mentee Katelyn Carr, PhD ’15, is a member of our inagural 2025 class of five faculty trainees.
The Clinical Research Faculty Mentoring Program offers monthly half-day seminars and hands-on training in critical research areas including study and specific aim design, proposal writing, biostatistics, power calculations, and REDCap. Participants also engage in monthly one-on-one meetings with mentors to discuss progress, tackle challenges, expand professional networks, and collaborate on proposals and publications. To participate, faculty must commit to attending one afternoon session per month for one year, meet monthly with a designated mentor, and obtain approval and a letter of support from their division chief.
