Patricia Conroy, M.D. Awarded CTSI TL1 Postdoctoral Fellowship

Patricia Conroy, M.D., a soon to be general surgery research resident, has been awarded a CTSI TL1 Postdoctoral Fellowship. Dr. Conroy has been mentored and supported in her work by Kim Kirkwood, MD and Charles Craik, PhD. Dr. Conroy will begin her dedicated research years in July 2020. 

The CTSI TL1 postdoctoral fellowship seeks to train exceptional postdoctoral fellows and provide them with the methodologic, analytic, leadership and team science skills required to conduct transformative early translational research. Fellows receive advanced didactic training relevant to the conduct of translation research, support from senior mentors and peers in the conduct of their research through regular works-in-progress sessions, a faculty seminar series focused on translational research, and career development support through one-on-one mentoring from established translational investigators as well as other structured activities. Fellows also receive a stipend commensurate to the PGY/postdoctoral fellow status, as well as tuition assistance for didactic training and support for travel to scientific meetings.
