Interdisciplinary Research Training in Breast Cancer
Abstract
The purpose of this predoctoral and postdoctoral training program is to prepare clinical researchers who will impact the care of women with breast cancer or women who are at risk for breast cancer. The predoctoral program prepares the beginning researcher with the knowledge and skills necessary to develop and test clinical interventions. This program builds on the Yale School of Nursing's current doctoral program. Postdoctoral training prepares the investigator to conduct more complex studies which involve an interdisciplinary perspective or the need for sophisticated analytic techniques. The research training program in breast cancer has completed its second year and all positions have been filled with outstanding trainees. Faculty across disciplines are collaborating and joint initiatives have been established. These activities are enhancing our ability to contribute to the knowledge base related to the care of women with breast cancer or women at risk to develop breast cancer.
