If you obtain funding, including clinical trials, it may be possible for you to reduce your clinical responsibilities proportionally. The department will do everything possible to further your personal academic goals and we would encourage you to avail of opportunities for further education within the Tulane system (such as obtaining an MPH or MSCR or MBA).
