We sat down with Bridgid Conn, Ph.D., a recipient of the Southern California (SC) CTSI Mentored Career Development in Clinical and Translational Science award, to hear about her experience as a KL2 scholar and how she has furthered her professional goals. We look forward to seeing all she will accomplish in the coming years.
Tell us a little bit about your experience so far in the KL2 program.
It’s definitely been a whirlwind since starting the program last year. It’s pushed me to immerse myself more fully into the process of learning the nuances of clinical and translational research while attempting to apply some of the key principles and practices in real-time through my research. It has jump started a lot of new ideas and collaborations and provided the tools to accelerate my progress towards becoming an independent clinical researcher.
How did you first learn about the program?
I heard about this program from a colleague who was participating as a scholar.
