Applications open for Clinical Trialist Training Program
The Clinical Trialist Training Program (CTTP) is a joint initiative between the CRSO, NC TraCS, and the Lineberger Comprehensive Cancer Center. This initiative provides 10% salary support for one year of training to develop new site investigators for multicenter clinical trials.
The goal of this program is to engage new clinical trialists who will develop a clinical trial portfolio and generate continued salary support beyond the year of training. This funding opportunity is open to School of Medicine faculty who are in departments that can support a clinical trial.

- Participation in a “Clinical Trials 101 Bootcamp” (view curriculum)

- Feasibility and financial assessments; contract execution and IRB applications; and recruitment strategies, tools, and budgeting for the selected trials
