SURGE-Clinical
SURGE-C is intended for assistant professors (PhD and/or MD) who will be/are leading clinical research programs, and Dr. Heather Moss is the course director. Clinical research is broadly defined including, but not limited to, data research, observational human subjects research and interventional clinical trials. The course will combine didactic overview and discussion of topics relevant to starting up a clinical research team, and performance of clinical research at Stanford. The course runs (semi)-monthly with 5 pm sessions from September through March via zoom unless noted below.
A complementary course SURGE-I is also being offered for new PI’s who will be/are leading a basic or translational research group in a basic or clinical department.
