Accepting Applications for the Georgia CTSA

Certificate Program in Translational Science (CPTS)


Deadline to Apply: April 3
Zoom Interest Meeting: Friday, January 20 at 12:00pm – Register here to attend!

Applicants to the Georgia Clinical & Translational Science Alliance (Georgia CTSA) CPTS must be from one of
the four Georgia CTSA institutions: Emory, Georgia Tech, Morehouse School of Medicine, or University of
Georgia.

The Certificate Program in Translational Science (CPTS) is a formal 16-credit Emory Laney Graduate
School program for trainees who seek to conduct research at the interface between basic and
translational science and clinical medicine. Despite the explosive growth in biomedical knowledge, it
has been increasingly difficult to translate this knowledge and discovery into applications for the
treatment of disease and to benefit human health by addressing gaps between biology and
medicine and promoting multidisciplinary team science. The CPTS enhances and transforms
translational research training for predoctoral PhD students, postdoctoral fellows (PhD or MD) and
junior faculty at Emory University (Emory), Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM), Georgia Institute of
Technology (Georgia Tech), and the University of Georgia (UGA).

Courses include:
 Introduction to Clinical & Translational Science (2 credits)
 Fundamentals of Epidemiology (2 credits)
 Biostatistics for Translational Research (2 credits)
 Ethical, Legal, and Social Issues of Responsible Clinical & Translational Research (1 credit)
 Scientific & Grant Writing (2 credits)
 Clinical & Translational Science Colloquium (1 credit)
 Community Engagement & Health Disparities in Clinical & Translational Research (1 credit)
 Health Services Research (1 credit)
