We are inviting full applications for a KL2 Scholar career development award in translational research. The goal is to develop an investigator who can translate research evidence into practice and evaluate the benefits and harms of different strategies and interventions on patient outcomes.
The selected candidate must commit a minimum of 75% of time to research and career development. Past scholars have used the award to study diffusion tension imaging to diagnose Parkinson’s disease, decision-making capacity in patients with metastatic brain cancer, infection risk in children with juvenile idiopathic arthritis, and variations in cardiovascular risk among young adults presenting with metabolic syndrome. Applications due July 15, 2016.
