MEDI 502: Translational Science in the COVID-19 Pandemic
Seminars & Lectures
The National Center for Advancing Translational Sciences (NCATS), part of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) , and the Foundation for Advanced Education in the Sciences (FAES) have partnered to offer an online course about translational science in the COVID-19 pandemic.
The course describes in detail a range of recent and ongoing research activities — from preclinical to clinical to population health — that were led or supported by NCATS in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. Through this lens, the course teaches students effective approaches and strategies in translational science that have been key to the success of these efforts and are generalizable to other translational research activities.
Students will learn about the myriad ways NCATS is contributing to research to address the COVID-19 pandemic and will leave the course equipped with a set of wide-ranging translational science strategies they can apply in their future work in translational research.
Dates: June 15-August 2, 2022
