The Harvard Catalyst Postgraduate Program in Clinical & Translational Science provides training to clinical and translational investigators through a range of educational offerings. By sponsoring forty-five additional seats in existing Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR) courses at the Harvard School of Public Health and at the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, investigators from Harvard schools and affiliated academic healthcare centers will have expanded avenues for meeting NIH and NSF training requirements in RCR.
