Since 1996, the University of Pittsburgh Department of Critical Care Medicine has received funding from the NIH to support an institutional training grant (Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Award) with the purpose of training postdoctoral scholars to conduct research in the discipline of Critical Care Medicine.
The primary goal of the program is to provide rigorous training in research fundamentals and techniques in areas of concern to clinical intensivists and the larger practice of medicine. Training is offered in clinical, translational, and basic research and includes hands-on research, coursework in biostatistics, grant writing, ethics, and other support required to obtain the skills necessary for academic achievement.
