Training the Next Generation

As a learning organization, one of the CVC’s central tenets is to engage the next generation of health professionals in a research culture that embraces curiosity, welcomes new ideas, and seeks to address key unanswered questions that are likely to alter the minds and actions of all those involved in health care delivery.

The CVC recognizes that a research experience can be life changing, whether during a summer studentship, an elective experience in clinical medicine, or through dedicated graduate or postdoctoral training. Irrespective of an individual trainee’s career plans, exposure to research galvanizes the development of a more critical mind that can then be applied to the unending search for better health solutions.
