Progress Report

Trainees are responsible for maintaining an updated progress report in the format that we provide.  Information required on this report include publications, presentations, educational certifications, coursework, honors, service activities, etc.

These progress reports aid us in preparing our annual progress report to the NIH.  If you keep track of your progress as you go, it helps reduce the workload for everyone when we need to compile all of our trainee data.
