CTSI Predoctoral T32 Mentored Research Training Program
CTSI Predoctoral T32 Mentored Research Training Program
The T32 grant provides full-time research training support for post-candidacy predoctoral learners pursuing mentored clinical and translational research or clinical and translational science who are enrolled in any Ohio State graduate degree program.
The goal of this predoctoral training program is to leverage the large, collaborative, and multidisciplinary research environment at Ohio State to increase the reach of clinical and translational science (CTS) education and training across the Ohio State University campus and to recruit and develop a multidisciplinary cohort of trainees to become the next generation of clinical and translational scientist leaders.
The T32 grant provides full-time research training support for predoctoral trainees pursuing mentored clinical and translational research or clinical and translational science who are enrolled in any Ohio State University graduate degree program and are postcandidacy. Examples of potential CTS projects include research focused on advancing therapeutics, developing new clinical interventions, promoting health for all or investigating/fostering behavior modifications to improve health.
