The Translational Research Institute (TRI) is inviting applications for the 2024 TL1 Health Sciences Innovation and Entrepreneurship (HSIE) Training Program, which includes two years of funding and other support for postdoctoral fellows.
Applications are due March 29 and are welcome from all UAMS colleges. The graduate certificate program begins July 1, 2024, and will support four postdoctoral fellows.
Faculty are encouraged to share this unique opportunity with postdoctoral fellows in their area.
HSIE Postdoctoral Scholars have a primary mentor and receive value-added training in business principles, entrepreneurial skills, team science, and strategies to innovate and commercialize health care technologies.
The program is a partnership between TRI and the Entrepreneurship Graduate Program in the Sam M. Walton College of Business at the University of Arkansas, Fayetteville.
HSIE trainees receive:
- Stipend (including fringe) at NIH funding level for two years
- Tuition and fees for a 15-credit HSIE Graduate Certificate
- Non-stipend support, for research and classroom supplies
- Travel allowance to attend an HSIE-related national meeting or symposium
Anyone interested in this opportunity is encouraged to attend the information session on Friday, March 8, at 10 a.m., via Zoom. Please register here.
