Share this course description

This module is designed to allow you to apply the Toronto Translational Framework to define your Capstone project.  

The module is designed as a series of workshops and follow up activities intended to move you through the process of:

  • understanding a specific problem space
  • defining a range of patient-centric needs
  • analyzing a specific gap to define a particular problem
  • to be able to articulate that problem in the form of a research proposal.

This module is meant to supplement the introduction provided in LMP 2301Y: Projects in Translational Research and apply the learned approaches to develop or refine a translational capstone project.
