Achievement

As a group, the pace of trainee publications continues to increase. Publications in refereed journals have increased over the past three reporting periods with one publication during 2007-2008, four publications in 2008-2009, six publications in 2009-2010, fourteen publications in 2010-2011 and seven publications in 2011-2012. These data are based on publications in which a trainee is either first or second author and demonstrate a strong trend in the education and maturation of trainees in our IGERT program.
