Opportunity for Surgical Resident Research Award & Faculty Mentorship
With more than 1,000 residents across MedStar Health, MHRI is
always striving to put research opportunities into the hands of this talented
group.
One way we’re able to accomplish this is through partnerships such
as the newly launched MedStar Surgical Resident
Research Program (SRRP), sponsored jointly by MHRI, the
MedStar-Georgetown Surgical Outcomes Research Center, and MedStar Health
Academic Affairs.
The goal of this one-year program is to support the development of
MedStar surgical residents in the MedStar Washington region pursuing careers
focused on clinical, translational and medical education research in academic
surgery. In particular, it serves to support the development of strong
faculty/resident mentoring around academic research during the clinical years
of surgical residency.
Surgery residents who seek to become independent,
extramurally-supported clinical investigators should apply. We’re also asking residents
to choose a faculty member to serve as their mentor.
These types of programs support the clinical research community and
the graduate medical education community, thereby integrating research and
academics in a real world clinical setting. This is what makes us an academic healthcare
system and allows MedStar to look towards the future of clinical research
through innovation.
Applications for the program are due April 1st, 2016. To learn more, please visit the SRRP
webpage. To learn more about MHRI
support for residents and fellows, please visit our resident
research support webpage.
