CRTC Welcomes New ASPIRE and TL1 Trainees |
|
|
|
Earlier this month, the WashU Medicine Clinical Research Training Center (CRTC) welcomed our newest trainees. For some, it was their first time on the Medical Campus, and for others, it was their first time in St. Louis. Regardless, our newest cohort of trainees for the Advanced Summer Program for Investigation and Research Education (ASPIRE) and the TL1 Predoctoral Clinical Research (TL1) Program arrived ready to connect and soak in as much learning as possible.
