EDUCATING LEADERS IN PHARMACY AND PHARMACEUTICAL SCIENCES SINCE 1886
Clinical and Translational Therapeutics
Our Clinical and Translational Therapeutics micro-credential consists of a three-course series that covers the fundamentals of clinical and translational therapeutics. It offers a comprehensive overview of the basics and methodologies involved in translational therapeutics, with practical applications for generating project ideas spanning across pharmacy, pharmaceutical sciences and various other scientific fields. Each course includes lectures and hands-on practice using application-based software to navigate pharmaceutical data and solve in-silico modeling problems. Finally, you will complete a protocol-driven research project, producing data-driven results through in-silico methods.
This is a micro-credential program. Earn the Pharmacometrics Modeling digital badge upon successful completion of this program. Learn more about micro-credentials.

Eligibility Requirements
Who is eligible?
Intended for non-degree students, though UB students may be granted permission under special circumstances (if you are a UB student, consider applying to the Clinical Research Program instead).
Requirements:
Required Courses
Courses are asynchronous remote, in which learning materials are provided online, and students can view these materials and complete tasks at their own pace. However, there are also required due dates.
- PHM 551: Clinical Research Methods 1
- PHM 535: Research Rotation
- Complete one of the following: PHM 552: Clinical Research Methods 2 or PHC 615: Capstone I
Additional required activities/assignments:
- Successful completion is defined as a grade of B- or better. The activities observed in these courses allows the learner to evaluate clinical research methods and how they relate to clinical applications, especially with in-silico models and data. Following successful completion of the courses students will be required to complete a project that encompasses a research plan utilizing in-silico data and modeling. Students in the micro-credential must pass this with an 80% or better. PHM552 or PHC615 sets the student up for this final project.
