Events Calendar

Early career investigators, would you like support to:

• Obtain research funding
• Publish in high-impact journals
• Translate your discoveries into better health?

This fall, Tufts CTSI will again offer the monthly Junior Faculty Research Career Development Forum. These interactive, 90-minute sessions support the biomedical research careers of junior faculty at the K or career development level.

Admission to the Forum is by application only: selected junior faculty will commit to one year of participation. Videoconferencing will be available.

Submit a biosketch, a brief letter expressing your goals for participating in the forum and your plans for upcoming grant submissions, an individual development plan (IDP), and a letter of nomination from your research or career mentor to researchcareerawards@tuftsmedicalcenter.org.

The deadline for application is Friday, August 13.

Interested in learning more about implementation science and dissemination and implementation strategies?

You are invited to a virtual Dissemination and Implementation Science Special Interest Group Meeting on Thursday, August 26, 3:00-4:00 PM.

In this session, Sara Folta, PhD will describe, from start to finish, her dissemination study: the StrongWomen – Healthy Hearts intervention. This was a community-based intervention designed to reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease among midlife and older women. Dr. Folta will discuss the considerations and challenges from writing the grant proposal and deciding on a framework through to publishing the results and figuring out next steps once an intervention has reached the “end” of the translational spectrum.
