Responsible Conduct of Research
Responsible Conduct of Research
Provides face-to-face training for predoctoral students, postdoctoral fellows and early career investigators in the responsible conduct of research. The course is designed for predocs, post-docs, and junior faculty who are recipients for the NIH and other training awards that require Responsible Conduct of Research. This course covers topics in the principles and expectations for conducting biomedical research; and promotes ethical, rigorous and reproducible science. For the next scheduled training, please view the event calendar here: http://www.ghuccts.org/news-events/event-calendar.
Mentor Training Workshop Series
Mentor Training Workshop Series
GHUCCTS offers training opportunities to engage new and experienced faculty to develop a strong mentoring culture across departments, and amongst partner institutions. Our Entering Mentoring workshops developed by the Wisconsin Program for Scientific Teaching at the University of Wisconsin-Madison, provide resources to enhance mentoring skills – including communication, career planning, and collaboration. To be informed of our next workshop, please contact ghuccts.education@georgetown.edu.
Grant Writing Workshop Series
Grant Writing Workshop Series
This 6-month interactive workshop focuses on applying knowledge of clinical trials design, biostatistics, and research ethics to trainee-specific proposals. Each participant will develop, revise, and prepare to submit an F-, K-, or R-series NIH grant application, or equivalent over the course of this in-person workshop with constructive input from facilitators and participants. Participants will hone their grant writing skills through attending lectures on best practices for individual grant components and by giving and receiving constructive feedback from their peers. These workshops are embedded within our Translational Biomedical Science evening series on Thursdays rotating between Georgetown and Howard Universities. This workshop is designed to align with the NIH submission cycle deadline. For more information, visit http://www.ghuccts.org/education/seminars-and-workshops.
