CTSI Affiliates Program
Penn State Clinical and Translational Science Institute has built an affiliates program for interested Penn State clinical and translational scientists across the Commonwealth. Our goal is to officially recognize and formalize the efforts of faculty, scholars, and research staff contributions.
The affiliate program consists of Penn State faculty, postdoctoral scholars, and research staff who are interested in institutional networking to conduct high-quality, collaborative clinical and translational research. Our program officially supports clinical and translational researchers at all Penn State locations and expands their representation within the CTSI. This program serves as the connector for this community of researchers to share ideas and opportunities and pursue innovative team science endeavors.
Program Details
To be eligible for affiliate status, prospective applicants must be a faculty member, postdoctoral scholar, or research staff member at Penn State University who conducts translational research, which “translates” new knowledge into health benefits through collaboration and across a variety of scientific disciplines. Requirements for members include participation in the annual programmatic evaluation; faculty affiliates may volunteer to review up to two (2) intramural or extramural funding applications per year.
Our goal is to support a collaborative network of clinical and translational scientists at Penn State while increasing accessibility to the CTSI, one another, the University research infrastructure, and communities across the Commonwealth. Membership advantages include:
Internal and external recognition for CTSI involvement;
Expanded access to CTSI resources & increased contact with core CTSI personnel;
Interdisciplinary opportunities for research and community outreach;
Broader platform for research efforts and dissemination; and
Enhanced support for manuscript preparation and internal/external funding applications
