Scholarly Activity

All fellows are required to engage in a hypothesis driven research project in the areas of clinical, basic science or translational research. Fellows work closely with a research mentor and actively participate in all aspects of the project including development of the research question, development of the hypothesis and methodology, data collection, statistical analysis, and presentations at research meetings. Our fellows are required to provide quarterly updates on their projects including the progress of their patient recruitment, data collection, and data analysis.
