Pediatric Academic Workshops

As an early career faculty member, the pathway to starting your research program can be confusing and intimidating. In December, the Child Health Research Institute and UNMC Department of Pediatrics are hosting a Pediatric Academic Workshop specially designed to help new and emerging researchers find their footing on their research journey and to assist mid-career researchers to strengthen skills and discover new avenues and collaborators for research and scholarly activity.

Subjects discussed will be: 

• Converting your everyday work to publishable research or QI
• Understanding implementation science
• Working successfully with the IRB
• Hands on practice with IRB forms

Make your reservation today! The Pediatric Academic Workshop will run for 9 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Children's Nebraska.
