Translational Research Project Support
Apply to receive free support for your Translational Research Project. Deadline December 9, 2024
Do you have a research project with Translational potential? Do you want to see a project have a positive impact on health, medicine, and care but need some support?
PIs: clinical, basic, and translational researchers across Temerty Medicine are invited to submit research-based project ideas (with Translational potential) for translational support by Monday, December 9, 2024.
You can submit a project to have a Translational Research Program master’s student work with you for 4 months.
The benefits include:
- Having a student focussed on translational research support and move forward your project by conducting research and helping advance your ideas.
- Low commitment needed from you: the form is straightforward, and your time commitment will include an initial meeting in January, and then meetings on an as-needed basis (anticipated to be bi-weekly or monthly). The students will have additional project support from the course instructor.
- You get to support another student and enrich their educational/research experience.
- There is no cost to the PI or lab for participation.
It will run from January 2025 until April 2025 and final projects will be presented on April 1, 2025.
What kind of projects are we looking for?
We are looking for a broad spectrum of projects. They just need to be:
- In the translational space, from bench to bedside.
- Feasible to complete within the time frame (4 months).
- Of educational benefit to the student.
How to take part
You are invited to submit research-based project ideas (with Translational potential) for translational support by Monday, December 9, 2024. After you complete the form, someone will connect with you so we can learn more.
We will then review, assess, and work with you to create a project plan with useful deliverables. Examples could include needs assessments, strategy plans, regularity work and identification, commercialization strategy and analysis, and more!
If you have any questions, please contact Janine Noorloos (janine.noorloos@utoronto.ca).
Learn about the projects our students have worked on
What course is this is related to?
Students in the Translational Research Program take LMP2300: Foundations in Translational Research throughout the first year of the program. Case studies are used as a tool for students to work in teams and learn about the translational research process. Throughout the first term, students are given case studies based on real happenings, but are theoretical. For the second term, students can learn from projects that are current and occurring within the LMP faculty and community.
With this we are asking for projects which could benefit from translational research support.
The TRP could benefit YOU!
The TRP is a flexible two-year masters program where you as an academic and/or clinician can learn how to innovate in your workplace and develop skills you can implement in your work immediately. Bring your research and knowledge to the bedside and help improve healthcare by putting patients at the center.
