Predoc Fellowship Program

The Predoctoral Fellowship Program in Clinical and Translational Research was designed to encourage and support University of Pittsburgh students who wish to pursue a career in multidisciplinary clinical and translational research. The goal of the program is to enhance and support multidisciplinary research training for doctoral students and medical students who are conducting research as part of an advanced degree program or training program.

The fellowship requires trainees to have a multidisciplinary mentoring team. It encourages them to think beyond their individual project about the scope of their work along a translational spectrum. The fellowship provides a stipend, tuition, travel funds, and research support for 1 year. Applicants for the fellowship may be from any graduate department within the university as long as they are engaged in clinical research or translational research.
