The Master of Science in Translational Research (MSTR) program aims to equip students with comprehensive training in essential skills, methodologies, and foundational principles to develop competent translational investigators. This goal is achieved through: structured coursework, a dedicated mentorship initiative, hands-on laboratory experience, professional skill-building activities, and personalized support in crafting protocols and grant applications. Participants will undertake an independent research project guided by their primary mentor, who will also assist in formulating a viable thesis question. The culminating thesis integrates translational research concepts while offering initial practice in drafting a thorough NIH-style grant proposal.
