Program Director: Dr. John Greenspan

The Faculty Transition Program supports new and recent DDS/PhDs and similar up-and-coming scientists for up to five years of mentored postdoctoral and junior faculty development.

The program consists of two phases:

1. The Scholar Development Phase, in which the grant supports outstanding new clinician researchers or scientists with a clinically relevant PhD degree to obtain additional mentored postdoctoral research experience that leads to research independence;
2. The Faculty Transition phase in which the individual is appointed to a tenure track line or equivalent position, followed by funding for an independent research project.
