Clinical Research Webinars
The CTSI hosts quarterly webinars on clinical research topics and posts the past webinar recording on this page for clinical research teams at the University of Rochester. As a member of the Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program, the CTSI connects clinical research teams at the University of Rochester with both internal and external resources, services, and expertise, including those offered via Trial Innovation Network webinars.
Goals
The CTSI Clinical Research Webinar promotes the exchange of ideas and fosters new connections among clinical researchers from various departments, schools, and research institutions at the Health Sciences Campus, as well as from the broader networks in which URochester Medicine researchers are involved.
The webinar includes a 45-minute presentation followed by a 15-minute Q&A session. Depending on your topic, CTSI Research Help can coordinate either an internal CTSI Clinical Research webinar or a national webinar, such as the Collaboration Webinar hosted by the Trial Innovation Network.
