MS-CTS Scholarship Program

The Translational Research Institute (TRI), through its collaboration with the Winthrop P. Rockefeller Cancer Institute, Departments of Psychiatry and Pediatrics, and Arkansas Children’s Research Institute, is offering several scholarships to students attending the Master’s Program in Clinical and Translational Sciences (MS-CTS). Each awardee will be supported to cover 20% FTE to allow the scholar time to dedicate to the program.

Qualified candidates are full time UAMS faculty who are interested in applying to the MS-CTS Program in the coming fall semester, 2022. The following documents are required in the application and need to be submitted online by 5:00 pm April 15, 2022:

  • Career Development Statement/Personal Statement: Must show strong interest in clinical and/or translational research. Goals of the program and early career development must be clearly stated. While you may not have a specific research plan outlined, some idea of research interests and goals should be stated. Successful applicants will show a dedication to pursuing future funding (KL2, K23, foundation grants, etc.) by the end of the master’s program.
  • Letter of Support from Department Chair: This letter should have a clear statement of commitment for two years of 20% protected time for attending the program. Department chairs may nominate faculty for the program.
  • Curriculum Vitae from the applicant.

Applicants are required to complete the online application and upload the required documents in the order list above.

For questions related to the Scholarship Program contact Drs. Shelley Crary and Jun Ying.
