GHUCCTS announces 2022 KL2 Scholar Dr. Christina Marea

After their 12th highly competitive application cycle the Georgetown-Howard Universities Center for Clinical and Translational Science (GHUCCTS) is pleased to announce the appointment of Christina X. Marea, PhD, MA, MSN, FACNM as the newest KL2 Scholar. This new awardee, her research project, and training plan are emblematic of the KL2 program objectives in that they pair a highly-promising scholar-trainee with a mentor team that includes senior colleagues from across disciplines, departments, campuses, and institutions to pursue research that depends upon collaborations and methods from outside the scholars’ discipline, local research environment, or past experiences.

The GHUCCTS KL2 program builds on the goals of the original National Institutes of Health “roadmap” K12 Clinical and Translational Research Scholars program and on individual K-series awards, by providing up to three years of protected time and research support, focused on developing early-career faculty investigators through a multidisciplinary-mentored research experience to enable their success as independent, extramurally-funded investigators, preferably in programs of multidisciplinary, collaborative translational team science.

Congratulations, Christina!
