The Grant Writing in Outcomes Research Workshop (also known as the "GROW Scholars program") is a nine-month faculty development program focused on clinical outcomes research and health services research. Sponsored by MU’s School of Medicine along with the Department of Family and Community Medicine, this workshop has been designed to improve the infrastructure for junior clinician research by promoting interdisciplinary research and collaborations among SOM faculty members. Junior faculty members who have a strong interest in patient-centered, clinical or health services research but lack the experience to pursue this interest should apply for this new and unique research workshop.
