Mentorship

All mentors of both research project leaders and pilot project investigators will participate in the Entering Mentoring training from National Resource Mentoring Network (NRMN) to augment faculty development, strengthen institutional research training infrastructure, and to enhance research success and advancement in injury control careers.

COBRE investigators will also be invited to participate in the NRMN Mentoring Training as they transition off the COBRE and obtain their own independent research funding.

For more information about mentorship training, contact Injury Control COBRE Administrator, Julie Bromberg, at jbromberg@brownhealth.org.

Symposiums

Together the Administrative Core, Injury Control Digital Innovation Core, and Research to Practice and Policy Core will hold an annual symposium to grow the Injury Control knowledge basis among Rhode Island investigators.

SAVIR 2026

Injury Control COBRE will be hosting the Society for Advancement of Violence and Injury Research (SAVIR) National Conference in 2026 (details to follow).
