The University of Southern California is pleased to announce an opening for a fellow to join the Alzheimer’s Trial Recruitment Innovation Lab (ATRIL) fellowship program in the fall of 2023. This two-year program is designed to train and develop the next generation of researchers interested in Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) clinical trials through a multidisciplinary, active, team-based learning approach.
The fellowship combines rigorous didactic sessions, clinical trial methods training, hands-on experience working on ATRIL’s research projects, and a mentored clinical research project using previously collected data. The training program is enhanced through interactive seminars, workshops, and other learning and networking opportunities.
The fellowship is funded through a grant by the American Heart Association’s Strategically-Focused Research Network (SFRN) on the Science of Diversity in Clinical Trials along with the USC Schaeffer Center for Health Policy and Economics, the USC Alzheimer’s Therapeutic Research Institute (ATRI) and Howard University. The fellowship stipend is $85K per year.
