Clinical Research Mentorship Program at AORTIC – Africa

AORTIC – Africa shared a post on LinkedIn:

Clinical Research Mentorship Program (CRMP).

CALL FOR PROPOSAL 2025

The clinical research mentorship program is a year-long mentorship program designed for oncology residents in training with a focus in radiation oncology.

Residents from training programs with the greatest need for access to an external mentor will be given priority.

At the core of this program is the resident in training, supported by their local supervisor, matched with a mentor from a participating academic institution (Princess Margaret, MD Anderson or their collaborators).

The goal is to complete a clinical research project of the residents’ choice, leading to conference submission and manuscript publication.

The program was first piloted as a collaborative project between the Radiation Medicine Program (RMP), Princess Margaret Cancer Centre, Canada and Korle Bu Cancer Center, Ghana (2015).

It has since been collaborated with the Parirenyatwa Radiotherapy Center, University of Zimbabwe (2018) and in 2020, expanded to involve multiple centers coordinated by Association of Radiation and Clinical Oncologist of Nigeria, and in 2022 as an AORTIC initiative,

For 2024, AORTIC will again host this program in collaboration with Princess Margaret Cancer Center and MD Anderson Cancer Center. The program is under the stewardship of the radiation oncology special interest group.

Interested residents are invited to apply.

The application deadline is 28 October 2024.
Target start date is 2 Jan 2025. Applicants will be notified by 25 Nov 2024 whether their application has been accepted.
