STSI K12 Master’s Program

A core component of the Clinical and Translational Science Award of the NIH and of the Scripps Translational Science Institute (STSI) is the education and cultivation of the next generation of clinical/translational scientists.  Young physicians envisioning a career as both clinicians and scientists are ideal candidates for participation in the K12 grant program of the Scripps Translational Science Institute.  The K12 grant allows for a recently trained clinical physician to pursue a Master’s Degree in the discipline of Clinical Investigation.
The STSI is now recruiting physicians to enter the Master’s of Clinical Investigation Program which is conducted collaboratively with the Kellogg School of Science and Technology at The Scripps Research Institute (TSRI) in La Jolla California.  The program is a two year research centric educational endeavor which is complemented by a series of seminar based activities which are directed at preparing the young investigator for a career as a clinical and/or translational scientist.

Kellogg School of Science and Technology

Scripps Research Kellogg School of Science and Technology has grown into one of the nation’s top centers for graduate education in biology and chemistry. The school offers doctoral programs in chemical and biological sciences. Extraordinary thought and care has been given to create an individualized curriculum at the interface of biology and chemistry, that area of scientific inquiry for which The Scripps Research Institute has earned its reputation for excellence. Opportunities to craft a research project and area of study that encompasses several laboratories outside of that of the student’s mentor are not only available but encouraged. Accommodations are made to suit the student’s sensibilities and obstacles are routinely overcome to keep the best interests of the students at the forefront of the program.

TSRI Training Program in Molecular Evolution

The Molecular Evolution training program emphasizes three major topics: the principles of evolution, the central relevance of evolutionary processes at the molecular level to problems of disease, and the use of molecular evolution as a laboratory tool. Below you will find the link for information about the program and about the subject of molecular evolution, and contact information for the scientists involved.
