Goals of the Physician Scientist Training Program

Many of our activities focus on residency and fellowship years, when would-be physician scientists become immersed in clinical training but also must identify a research direction and mentors who can help them take an idea from a curious question to a sustainable, impactful direction of independent inquiry. Goals of the PSTP are to:

• Inspire and enable residents and clinical fellows to pursue research training in combination with their clinical training, as well as to support junior faculty physician scientists.
• Provide venues for trainees to hear about the work of great physician scientists at JHUSOM and to present their own research
• Provide an orientation to the stellar basic and translational science ongoing at JHUSOM for residents and fellows new to the institution
• Provide travel allowances to attend scientific meetings and microgrants for exploratory research projects
• Host workshops to teach essential skills for success in research, and provide constructive feedback on papers and funding proposals
