These trainees will be participating in the NUCATS Institute's Multidisciplinary Clinical and Translational Research Pre-Doctoral Training Program (TL1).
The new trainees are from a variety of Feinberg School of Medicine and Weinberg College of Arts and Sciences Departments and Divisions and have very diverse translational research areas of interest. To learn more about our trainees and their research projects please click here. The TL1 Program is funded by the National Institutes of Health Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) and trainees are appointed to a one year term. The program is designed to create the next generation of clinical and translational scientists and physician-scientists. Successful graduates will have cross-trained in basic, translational and clinical research and be prepared to function effectively as members of interdisciplinary research teams. The TL1 Program is available to all graduate students participating in life science PhD programs at NU. To learn more about the TL1 Program please click here.

SAVE THE DATE! 3rd Annual Knowles Hearing Center Symposium
|
|
October 12, 2012, Evanston Campus
The Knowles Hearing Center at Northwestern University is sponsoring a Symposium entitled "Translational Research: Applications to Hearing Loss". The goal of this symposium is to update and inform faculty and students, clinicians and researchers, about the latest translational research in hearing loss. Such research includes the development and refinement of prostheses, assistive listening devices, testing instrumentation and clinical protocols, as well as the discovery of practical applications of cellular and molecular biology. Of special importance to NUCATS, each speaker will not only talk about their research but also relate their personal stories about the challenges and rewards experienced during the process of getting innovations to market. Thus, the symposium will keep members of the NUCATS community abreast of translational research related to the diagnosis and treatment of hearing loss and inform them how to participate in bringing research to its practical use for patient benefit.
