CPCRN Scholars Program
The CPCRN Scholars Program strives to educate students, postdoctoral fellows, junior faculty, practitioners, and other health professionals in dissemination and implementation (D&I) science focused on cancer prevention and control. Scholars will be provided with opportunities to engage in mentored projects with workgroups that most align with their interests. Scholars will have different tracks to follow, but an educational component covering core competencies is required. Through a formalized process, it is our hope that this program can increase: the depth and breadth of the Scholars' connectedness within the CPCRN and the cancer research pipeline, and applied D&I work in academic and clinical settings.

Yousra Yusuf, Cohort 3, Graduate/Post-doc Track
“The CPCRN Scholars Program is an incredible program and I'm thankful for the opportunity to be a CPCRN Scholar. My knowledge on implementation science and cancer health equity has broadened and I’m excited to bring these concepts into my research. I will also cherish connecting with folks from the scholars program and the CPCRN network throughout the year at the various events.”
Nicole Kim, Cohort 3, Research Track
“As a CPCRN Scholar, I not only strengthened my skillsets in D&I science, but also learned about the importance of developing and maintaining multidisciplinary collaborations in order to improve cancer prevention and control. The opportunity to learn from faculty and peers outside of my field was especially invaluable, and I look forward to engaging in cancer research that more effectively promotes the uptake of liver cancer screening.”
