Professional Development
The Professional Development Core provides training and education to support early-stage scientists.
The LCTRC strives to provide education and training at all points along the continuum for all who participate in translational science. Our programs provide education and training that begins with medical students and extends beyond postdoctoral training to include seminars and career development for faculty and staff.
