7TH ANNUAL
Translational and Clinical Research
Course for Clinician-Scientists
July 19 – 21, 2015 | Mt. Washington Conference Center, Baltimore, MD
Course Description
The course is designed to further the development of young neuroscientists
interested in or engaged in translational or clinical research. Compared to fields
like oncology, cardiology, and diabetes and metabolism, the clinical neurosciences
currently lack well-established pathways for providing this kind of training for
fellows and junior faculty. This three-day course will engage selected research
fellows, residents, and junior faculty in an analysis of the development of therapies
for neurological diseases. The purpose of this course is to encourage trainees and
junior faculty to pursue careers in neurology, in particular academic neurology.
Throughout the course, strategies for career development will be interwoven with
the didactic material. The sequence of topics will work forward from the early
stages of development, including initial screening and efficacy testing in model
systems, to the evolution of therapeutic hypotheses, through early-, middle-, and
late-stage clinical trials, and the post-marketing assessment of therapies testing.
Lectures, group discussions, and case examples will be used as learning
strategies. Each day will include time for networking with other participants
and speakers. Small group discussions will allow participants to further explore
specific areas of interest.
