OVERVIEW
Timely, effective and innovative clinical and translational research requires health scientists rigorously trained in the intersections between basic science, clinical practice, and population health. The goal of CTST is to enhance clinical and translational research training and career development throughout UCSF. Originally funded by K30, Roadmap K12 and Roadmap T32 awards from NIH, the CTST program coordinates numerous didactic courses and mentored research programs that have trained more than 700 junior faculty, fellows, residents, and professional students over the past 5 years.
