Frequently Asked Questions:

How is the NCSP similar to the legacy RWJF Clinical Scholars Program?

The NCSP retains many of the strengths of the legacy program. The sites have a strong commitment to innovation in teaching and scholarship, engaging partners in all phases of the research and educational process, and creating a culture where Scholars are inspired to work as change agents from within the system, with the goal of improving health of individuals, communities, and populations.
National Clinician Scholars will receive the strong mentorship and robust training in research methods, policy, leadership, and communication skills that were hallmarks of the legacy Clinical Scholars program.
