Interdisciplinary Training in Pathobiology and Rehabilitation Medicine
T32 Grant
Hosting: Information Session
Training Program Description
The overarching goal of the training program is to develop burgeoning scientists into future leaders in translational rehabilitation research—scientists who are equipped to test and disseminate novel rehabilitative strategies that will alleviate impairment and compromised life quality in the face of chronicdisease management. Exercise Medicine is a major focus of this training program.
Applicant Qualifications
Applicant must have earned doctorate in a relevant basic or applied biomedical science (e.g. Ph.D.) or clinical doctorate (e.g. M.D., D.O.). They also must have an interest in translational research ranging from mechanisms of disease pathobiology to rehabilitation strategies (e.g. exercise medicine, experimental therapeutics, device development). Lastly, they must be within the first 2 years of postdoctoral training and be either a U. S. citizen or permanent resident.
