Education and Dissemination

The Education and Dissemination subcommittee functions as a major component of the RTRN Steering Committee and is critical in determining the direction of educational and training activities for the Network. The Education and Dissemination subcommittee is responsible for identifying opportunities and resources that will enhance the development of a new generation of multi-disciplinary and translational research scientists working within RTRN. The Education and Dissemination subcommittee is charged with coordinating resources to support comprehensive learning and study throughout the Network and identifying multi-media tools to develop and advance research skills.
