will be a function of the Internal Advisory Committee. The
Committee will prioritize applications based on potential for
a career in patient oriented research, departmental commitment
and mentor qualifications. They will recommend the top five
novice applicants for awards. Transitional candidates who
meet all criteria for participation will be accepted.
Our goal is accept a minimum of 5 novice and 5 transitional
trainees annually. We will be able to accommodate a large number
of additional trainees who would like to participate in the coursework
and seminars. Our only restriction on the number of awardees is
in the noviceprogram where we are limited to five enrollees
annually due to limited funds for tuition support and small grants
for research costs during apprenticeships.
