The Department of Clinical and Translational Science in conjunction with the ACTSI sponsor a regular Research in Progress Conference (RIPC) series. Presentations focus on work in progress with a translational interest focus including clinical researchers, basic scientists, and population health researchers as well as interested researchers from across our partners.
RIPC Seminars are particularly effective in helping bring researchers together across our translational network to facilitate collaboration and forge connections.
