Robert S. Sherwin YCCI All Scholar Day

The Yale Center for Clinical Investigation is pleased to announce that registration and abstract submission is now open for the Robert S. Sherwin All Scholar Day 2024 Symposium.

First launched by Dr. Robert “Bob” S. Sherwin, the inaugural director of the Yale Center for Clinical Investigation, the Robert S. Sherwin YCCI All Scholar Day is a celebration of the center’s educational programs and the accomplishments of the trainees and scholars at all levels.

Now in its nineteenth year, the YCCI has supported more than 214 junior faculty members. 99 percent of scholars remain engaged in research continuing to successfully compete for independent grants (including 440 NIH grants) worth over $ 1 billion and publishing approximately 9,800 papers.

The successes of the program are a reflection of Dr. Sherwin’s visionary leadership, tremendous dedication, and passion for training the next generation of clinical and translational researchers. Please join us for this year’s combined celebration of the YCCI trainees and Bob’s incredible legacy.

The event will be held on May 13 starting at 8:30 AM in The Anlyan Center (TAC) Auditorium, 300 Cedar St.

The keynote speaker is Nancy “Nana” Bennett, MD, MS Professor of Medicine and Public Health at the University of Rochester School of Medicine and Dentistry.

We invite all registrants to submit abstracts that span a wide range of topics in basic translational, clinical, and community-based research (T0 – T4) for consideration for oral and poster presentations. A review committee will select abstracts for 20-minute oral presentations. Speakers and poster presenters will be notified by April 23. Outstanding presentations will be recognized with prizes.

This is a unique platform to showcase your innovative work, gain valuable feedback, and connect with peers and leaders in the field at Yale.
