Upcoming Eureka's 2nd Annual International Certificate Program in Translational MedicineThis innovative international program will provide the opportunity for participants to experience a variety of novel teaching and learning strategies. Learner-centered discussions will be integral to the curriculum and all participants will be mentored by industry leaders and international faculty. A flexible program design will be tailored to individual needs.

Case studies will be used to facilitate discussion and develop creative problem solving strategies to address the challenges facing drug development today. Participants will have the opportunity to develop novel skills to build new kinds of teams to catalyze the development of drugs. Hands-on opportunities to hone communication skills will be provided. Through mentorships and elective internships, participants will be able to address their own specific goals. Participants will receive a certificate of completion of the course.
