HIP 510 Introduction to Clinical Research

Credits: 1
The specific goal of Introduction to Clinical Research is to provide an early education to students in the essential skills and structure of clinical research and in the basic process of building a patient-oriented research study. Discussions will include the essential elements of a career in clinical research, opportunities for obtaining early career funding, and the importance of mentorship. Although didactic methods will be employed, there will also be an emphasis on introducing available resources to early career investigators. Subsequent courses will build on this foundation in specific areas (biostatistics, clinical research design, translational research, etc.).
