Transdisciplinary Research on Energetics and Cancer (TREC) Training Workshop

Workshop Detail

This TREC Workshop is funded by the National Cancer Institute and led by Yale University’s Dr. Melinda Irwin with expert international faculty. TREC builds collaborations among basic sciences, clinician-researchers, and population scientists in energy balance and cancer research. The program is designed for junior faculty and postdocs.

This 5-day, in residence Workshop places emphasis on developing and applying transdisciplinary and translational competencies focused on energetics (obesity, diet and exercise) and cancer. Expert faculty span an array of professional disciplines, from basic scientists to clinicians to behavioral and population scientists. Formal didactic learning is integrated with one-on-one dialog and small group discussions to enable fellows to learn from each other and from faculty, and to develop a TREC network.
