In addition to providing direction for programs that develop future physician scientists (K-12, undergraduate, MD summer research programs, and MD-PhD programs) a new comprehensive UAB Physician Scientist Training Program is being instituted to provide career development seminars and workshops for any research-focused MD, DMD, MD-PhD, or DMD-PhD resident, fellow, or junior faculty in all clinical deparmtents of the Heersink SOM or School of Dentistry. The office will help trainees to develop their research portfolios, establish mentoring teams, obtain independent external grant funding, and develop into future leaders of our academic medical centers and will synergize with the available seminars offered by the UAB CCTS. The office will also help with oversight of these trainees to monitor progress through their established career development plans and milestones.
