Transforming Biomedical Research and Academic Faculty through Leadership Opportunities, Training, and Mentorship (TRANSFORM) [Video]

The TRANSFORM program aims to improve the diversity of the biomedical research workforce by enhancing the retention, promotion, and attainment of institutional leadership roles for faculty from groups historically under-represented in science and medicine (designated URM). TRANSFORM’s goal is to ensure that faculty at the associate professor level acquire the skills and experiences needed to advance to and thrive in more senior faculty and leadership positions.
