TL1 Training Program

The TL1 Training Program offered through NYU Langone’s Clinical and Translational Science Institute helps to cultivate predoctoral and postdoctoral scholars’ careers in translational research through scholarly seminars, training courses, and mentorship opportunities. 

Scholars in the TL1 Training Program receive a two-year stipend and are also eligible for other forms of financial support for tuition and travel to scientific meetings. Stipend amounts vary based on National Institutes of Health (NIH) guidelines for predoctoral and postdoctoral candidates. Scholars are rotated off the program after graduating from a predoctoral program or after securing an NIH research grant (R funding) or career development award (K funding).

KL2 Scholars Program

The Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) Scholars Program helps early career faculty who conduct research with training and mentorship and prepares them to apply for research funding. 

The Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI) Scholars Program trains early career faculty with National Institutes of Health (NIH) KL2 funding or institutional awards. We teach the skills necessary to effectively accelerate scientific discoveries that improve health, with specific coursework, research projects, and mentoring. We also prepare scholars to apply for career development awards from the NIH (K funding) or equivalent resources to support their work.

The CTSI Scholars Program provides partial salary support to trainees for two years, while they take courses in grant writing, complete Collaborative IRB Training Initiative (CITI) program certification, complete a research project, attend monthly cohort meetings, and participate in mentorship experiences.
