Dear Colleagues, 

There has never been a greater need for clinicians of color to engage with our patients and lead in medical research. Profound change is happening all around us — now is the moment to steer its trajectory and make an IMPACT.

Our mission at Project IMPACT 2.0 and The Cobb Institute is clear:

• Remove barriers to clinical trial participation.
• Empower clinician-scientists to reach their full potential.
• Increase patient participation in research that shapes care and outcomes.

If you are a researcher engaging with underserved communities — or plan to become a researcher in the future — Project IMPACT wants to know who you are and how we can support you. 

Together, we can build strength through community and connect training to real opportunities, particularly among historically underrepresented populations. 

By completing this brief survey, you help set in motion a virtuous cycle: Needs assessment >>> skills-building >>> research training >>> career opportunities — all energized by the connections we make together.

Join The Project IMPACT LIST and register your interest in research by completing our brief survey.

Your input will shape our medical research needs assessment — guiding the resources, funding, and collaborations that will have the greatest impact. Your voice can influence the future of medical research in our communities, and your insights will directly shape our next steps — thank you in advance.
