Didactics

Core didactic activities 

Research track core didactics are held on the fourth Friday of each month and provide the research track residents with immersive instruction in areas of research design, grantsmanship, relevant scientific literature on mental health, ethics in research and biostatistics. Some of the seminars and workshops on grantsmanship, regulatory approvals such as IRB, research ethics and career development would be through the infrastructure provided by the CaDRE program.
