Vickery Trinkaus-Randall, PhD, professor of biochemistry & cell biology, and ophthalmology, and Steven Borkan, MD, associate professor of medicine, received a multi-PI MSTP grant from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). The five-year, $1.6M award will help recruit, train and inspire four or more MD/PhD students per year to become clinician scientists by providing research and clinical training ultimately leading to a MD/PhD. It is the first time BU has received an MSTP grant for its MD/PhD program.
