Clinical Investigator Student Trainee Forum

This Seventh Annual CIST Forum will convene medical, dental, and veterinary students participating in clinical and translational research fellowships (“year-long enrichment” programs at academic medical centers and at the NIH) for a two-day meeting with their peers, program leaders, and established clinical and translational researchers from around the country.

A program of lectures, panels, and workshops will provide the opportunity for participants to learn more about contemporary biomedical research; academic careers in clinical research; and practical tips for success, while providing an opportunity for plenty of peer-to-peer interaction. This year much of the meeting’s content will focus on opportunities at the NIH campus in Bethesda, Maryland.

Attendees will include Hughes Medical Institute (HHMI)-NIH Research Scholars (Cloister) and HHMI Medical Fellows (non-Cloister), Doris Duke Charitable Foundation (DDCF) Clinical Research Fellows, National Center for Research Resources (NCRR)/Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA)-sponsored students in year-long research programs, NIH Clinical Research Training Program (CRTP) Fellows, Sarnoff Cardiovascular Research Foundation Fellows, Fellows in the Applied Epidemiology Fellowship at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), Fogarty International Clinical Research Scholars, and the NIH M.D./Ph.D. Partnership Training Program Fellows.
