Clinical and Translational Science (CTS) Lexis

The CCTS launched the Online CTS Lexis Course in 2012.  It consists of 14 topics organized into 10 modules, with each module emphasized online for one week during the 10 week period.  Developed through collaborative efforts with the UAB School of Nursing, it is designed for residents, fellows,  graduate and professional students, and others interested in pursuing a career in clinical and translational science. 
 
This free course is available to UAB faculty, staff and students.  A Blazer ID is required for participation. 

The goals of this course are three-fold:
  • To introduce participants to clinical and translational science so that they are better prepared to read and interpret the medical literature through their understanding of research design, conduct, analysis, and interpretation. 
  • To provide participants a foundation for further training in clinical and translational research.
  • To prepare participants to make informed decisions regarding whether or not to pursue clinical and translational science as part of their career path.
Participants must complete all 10 modules in order to receive a certificate of completion.
Looking for the Vocabulary of Clinical and Translational Science?   Same course; new name. 
 
Registration for the spring course is closed.  Check back in Fall 2013.
