The purpose of this seminar series is to provide information about research at the basic science/clinical interface, with the goal of familiarizing the attendees with both procedural aspects (such as the patenting and technology transfer process) and specific examples to provide insight into how to create, plan, and carry out a translational research project. Anyone is welcome to attend. The seminar series is available for course credit for graduate students and blue book credit for UTHealth medical students.
