The TL1 Translational Research Training Program brings together a multi-disciplinary group of predoctoral students interested in a career in translational science. Through a combination of thoughtful mentorship, interdisciplinary interaction, and focused training, TL1 Trainees receive the career development tools needed to become impactful translational researchers. Through this year-long training program and community building endeavor, ITHS provides trainees an opportunity to enhance their scientific education with competencies in collaboration, study design and implementation, leadership, and team science in order to help them function effectively within translational science teams.
