TRIP will be a translational research capstone project that will require approximately 5 hours per week 2nd through 4th quarter for a total of about TRAM 150 hours and enable each student to test a hypothesis, develop an experimental plan, interpret results, understand the future research plan. Capstones will focus on early clinical translation (T0-T1) involving areas of strength of our M-TRAM faculty, including: drug therapy and delivery, vaccines, immune measurements and therapy and gene measurements and therapy. Project ideas can be student initiated, suggested by the faculty advisors, or arise from experiential learning (Industry and Clinical), but must be approved, supported and monitored by the M-TRAM leadership committee. Upon completion of the project, students will present their final results as an oral presentation and a written report. They will formally present their final results at the student research showcase in the 4th quarter (summer). In addition to the talk students will also be required to prepare a final written report summarizing their project's aims, hypothesis, methods, results, and conclusions. Prerequisite: Application and acceptance to the MTRAM program.
