foster the student’s know ledge in clinical research Students will chose between two separate clinical research experiences (Elective A or Elective B) With Elective A, the student will be guided through the steps necessary in designing and implementing research with an end result of a research proposal that can be submitted to an Institutional Review Board and/or a research grant source Elective B offers the student the ability to recruit patients for the various phase two and three clinical trial studies III PRERQUISITES The first two years of didactic curriculum must be completed successfully, which includes Introduction to Research and Evidence Based Medicine IV ROTATION GOALS Understand the components of developing and implementing a clinical research project V ROTATION OBJECTIVES The rotation objectives are provided to assist students in their research learning experience In addition to specified objectives, students must take a fundamental interest in their own education by asking appropriate questions, putting in extra time, and reading and evaluating the current literature Rotation-Specific Educational Objectives for Research Elective A & B: CODE RESEARCH ELECTIVE A (HOPE or SALSA) 3.11 Review the current and past literature and determine pertinent research questions that remain unanswered or need to be validated utilizing PubMed and other peer reviewed sources 3.11.2 Create a table of relevant published peer reviewed research articles listing these articles by journal, author, title, and detail relevant methods and results 3.11.3 Develop a methodology that addresses and limits bias and confounding variables 3.11.4 Write a proposal that includes the following components: Hypothesis, Background, Pilot Studies (if applicable), Relevance, Methods and Materials, Outcomes, Budget, Timeline, Physical and Personal Resources, References 3.11.5 Complete applicable IRB forms 3.11.6 Investigate potential grant funding sources available for the

interviewed by the Clinical Director to determine why the grade was given Additionally, an average grade of 80 or greater is required for successful completion of the Specific Rotation Objectives portion of the student evaluation After consulting with the student and the preceptor who gave the failing grade, the Clinical Director will render a decision with respect to additional time in the clinic for remediation Students are encouraged to review their evaluations with the preceptor CBE EVALUATION Students will be required to participate in four CBE modules during the third year and one multiple-choice format written exam The hands-on assessment will gauge the progression of clinical skills and knowledge These exams are used to monitor the student’s progress throughout their third year clinical training Participation in all CBE related activities is mandatory Please refer to the Competency-Based Examination Handbook for more information regarding the CBE X REQUIRED
