Value and Impact

This poster presents efforts at MD Anderson to track career outcomes of its research trainees, using postdoctoral fellows as a case study. It outlines sources of internal and external data, data stewards, and the methodology employed to capture career progression of former postdocs and presents a preliminary overview of results coded in the Coalition for Next Generation Life Sciences taxonomy. This poster serves as a resource for postdoctoral offices, graduate schools, training program directors, and other departments responsible for reporting research trainee outcomes by providing details of a potential strategy for them to consider. This poster was first presented at the 2023 Cancer Center Administrators Forum held on March 4-7, 2023 hosted by the Huntsman Cancer Institute at the University of Utah, Salt Lake City, UT.
