Summary

The Lymphoma Scientific Research Mentoring Program (LSRMP), offered by the Lymphoma Research Foundation, provides essential mentorship and education for clinical fellows and junior faculty focusing on lymphoma research. With two tracks, one clinical and one laboratory/translational, the program aims to cultivate research skills and foster collaborations. Participants will receive guidance on project development, statistical analysis, and grant submission, ensuring they are well-equipped for future research endeavors in lymphoma and chronic lymphocytic leukemia.

Overview

The Lymphoma Research Foundation (LRF) Lymphoma Scientific Research Mentoring Program (LSRMP) is an education and mentoring program with two tracks: the Clinical Track, for clinical fellows and junior faculty with a focus in clinical research in the field of lymphoma, including epidemiology, and the Laboratory/Translational Track, for researchers at the levels of postdoctoral fellow, clinical fellow, or junior faculty with an interest in laboratory based research including, bench, translational and pathology research as well as statistical research. The Foundation considers “lymphoma” to encompass all lymphoma subtypes, as well as chronic lymphocytic leukemia (CLL). The program is two years in length and offers a broad education on research and career development as well as managing career and quality of life issues. The goals of the LSRMP include: Provide mentoring and education to clinical fellows, postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty interested in lymphoma/CLL research. The program will emphasize training in scientific research methods and design, statistical analysis, pathology, incorporating and interpreting correlative studies into clinical trials, and grant submission and funding. The program also aims to foster mentorship and research collaboration among experts and trainees in the field.Assist in the development of a research project relevant to lymphoma which will set the foundation for grant development. For Clinical Track applicants, this should be a clinical trial or study that directly involves patients; Laboratory/Translational Track applicants may propose any laboratory, or translational research project that will advance current understanding of lymphoma biology, prognosis/diagnosis, or outcomes. Project design and implementation will be discussed in a small group setting consisting of experts in the field, statisticians, and other trainees in the program, where information, ideas, guidance, support and connections are shared, and where mentoring relationships can be developed.Provide continuing training, career development advice, and mentorship among trainees and experts in the field and to foster future participation and collaboration within the LRF through follow-up programming and activities.
