| 1 | UMC Utrecht | Eureka International Certificate Course on Translational Medicine - Si... | 220 | 1 | 40.9 | 3:22 | We are entering a completely new phase in medicine and we are completely unprepared to do so. Eureka is helping young teletr researchers to be prepared. Already I feel like I'm becoming more savvy about the things that I need to know. Each piece is kind of a new perspective for me and I really have appreciated that already. The faculty bring with us a whole set of contacts and networks that are beyond ourselves as well that we can connect our students with. And they get a network of their peers who are now advancing in the field. And so that's really important. We're helping navigate through the complexity of all these things and career advancement. The program has given me a really broad and international perspective on my work and showing me that there is an international community if people like me, you are doing translational sciences, clinician scientists. We try to provide the fundamentals or at least a view of the fundamentals and the pathway. But also add things that are really at the edge now and are going to shape translational medicine going forward. What it was focused on was learning how to think about translational medicine and the translational process and learning how to think about how to do the work in ways that usually not tough. I just love that they walk away energized to go back into their environment, moving into a new place and thinking slightly differently about their role in translational medicine. This course really helped me to also weigh the advantages and disadvantages of all different options and directs me towards better understanding of where I should go. Our participants actually learn new insights that you don't learn in your normal medical school about what different translational medicine actually can make. What I'll come back with is information that I didn't even know that I was missing and I think that isn't something that you would typically learn from books or journals or through the regular sources. At the end of the course, these young physician scientists will go back to their institution and say, I'm different, but I'm very valuable and I do something unique. At the end, the purpose is really to advance medicine to the benefit of the patients. I've met such a diverse group of people with such diverse backgrounds, but inherently with a passion and an enthusiasm to take things that we've learnt here and make an impact in human health and disease. | ↗ |
