Call for Applications: Robert Wood Johnson (RWJ) Clinical Scholars Program (CSP)
Deadline: Feb 15, 2006

The RWJ CSP fosters the development of leaders who will transform health and health care in this country. These future leaders will be equipped to work with communities and to conduct innovative research as a result of the didactic and experiential learning they receive at each of the four carefully chosen training sites. The program’s new focus emphasizes community-based research and leadership training.

Community-based participatory research refers to collaboration with communities to: 1) define a research issue; 2) develop a research strategy; 3) design research instruments; and 4) work with the community to recruit subjects and collect data (primary data collection).

This also involves ongoing feedback to the community as the data are analyzed. <a href="http://rwjcsp.stanford.edu/">http://rwjcsp.stanford.edu/</a>
