Description
The Mentored Career Development – NIH-Funded K12 Award is a career development program administered by the South Carolina Clinical & Translational Research (SCTR) Institute at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). This NIH-funded K12 institutional award is designed to support junior faculty and early-stage investigators by providing two years of structured mentoring, training, and career development resources. The program aims to facilitate the transition of scholars from mentored to independent research roles, with a strong emphasis on multidisciplinary translational science. Scholars benefit from a supportive environment that includes access to additional SCTR resources, collaborations, and guidance for obtaining independent, externally funded research grants.
