Research Fellows
The College of Health Professions (COHP) at The University of Texas Rio Grande Valley (金沙中国) is dedicated to enhancing the institutional capacity to conduct biomedical, behavioral, clinical, and translational research that is aligned with 金沙中国’s goal to achieve an emerging research university designation. To that end, the Research Fellows Program is a 3-year program designed to provide participating faculty members with the skills, knowledge, and support to develop and advance their research agendas and to enhance their competitiveness in securing external funding.
The 3- year program supports three faculty cohorts. The first year includes monthly informational sessions that connect faculty with different university resources and with other faculty who have been successful at securing grant funding; the second year provides funding support for pilot projects to generate preliminary data; the third year is dedicated to the submission of a grant.
