Major in 临床和转化科学

转化科学包括从健康和疾病的生物学基础到改善个人和人群健康的临床和公共卫生干预的每一个网赌论坛有哪些阶段. 发展, 批准和实施改善人类健康的临床干预措施面临若干挑战, 并且需要转化网赌论坛有哪些,以加速基础科学发现的进程,从而发展有影响的干预措施. 为了促进这个过程, 临床和转化科学工作人员需要熟悉与以患者为导向的转化网赌论坛有哪些相关的具体方法, as well as training in biomedical research ethics and regulations.

临床和转化科学(CTS)专业为学生提供深入的基本技能指导, 方法, and principles of clinical and translational research. 它旨在使学生具备制定有意义的假设的能力, design and conduct interpretable experiments, 批判性地分析结果, understand and communicate the broad significance of research findings, and uphold the highest ethical standards in research.

Students will attain these skills through in-depth instruction, 正式的实验室经验, 以及对转化科学过程和该领域新兴发展的具体持续指导.

The program will expose students to the concept of multidisciplinary research, preparing them to see team science as the expectation, 而不是例外——利用整个大学的资源和专业知识,培养学生成为临床和转化网赌论坛有哪些团队的领导者和成员. 学生将获得一系列科学学科的知识,使他们能够在多学科团队中有效地沟通和合作.
