Project-Based Learning

 Sheila Umlauf at the Fall 2015 Yale Employee Milestone Tree Planting Ceremony)Projects in the Center are conducted by teams typically pairing a staff member with an individual from the investigator’s laboratory (often a graduate student or postdoctoral fellow). This partnership combines the deep biological insight of the investigator with the broad drug development expertise of Center staff.

To learn more about YCMD, or discuss a specific idea or a project, we are happy to give a presentation in your laboratory.  The content of each talk will be customized to your specific needs and will include general YCMD capabilities, or specific biology and/or chemistry services  relevant to your project. 

Please contact Yulia Surovtseva or any of our staff members with your request for a presentation, consultation or training.              

All too often we are giving young people cut flowers when we should be teaching them to grow their own plants. -John W. Gardner
