Transform the lives of patients and advance your career

Do you see the need for change in healthcare? Do you get frustrated that innovations don’t reach the very ones who need them in time? Do you want to translate research that impacts your patients?

Advance knowledge

Healthcare researchers can make extraordinary advances in our knowledge of diagnostics, treatments and healthcare delivery but these advances are slow to reach those who need it. Enabling change in this field is challenging and involves working with multiple stakeholders who all have different priorities. 

Think differently

At the TRP, we will train you to think differently so you can help implement and expedite the mobilization of research into impactful innovations. To look at issues with the patient at the center, whilst navigating ambiguity, and honing your skills in using scientific research and working with others. 

Asnia Shah

The main reason I applied to TRP was that I didn’t just want to be a run-of-the-mill physician. Physicians are perfectly positioned in the healthcare system to recognize problems in the system. Knowing how to manage them or come up with solutions is powerful.

I want to be able to do something to impact a larger number of people versus impacting individual patients in the clinic. This drive to have a greater impact drove me to TRP.
