Steve Grambow, PhD , associate chair of education in the Department of Biostatistics and Bioinformatics, has been honored with an education innovation award from the Association for Clinical and Translational Science.
The ACTS Distinguished Educator: The Rebecca Jackson Award for Outstanding Achievement in Education Innovation recognizes distinguished educators with significant accomplishments and widely recognized innovation and impact in health sciences education and clinical research training. The award was recently re-named to honor the late ACTS President Rebecca Jackson, MD, who passed away in October 2022.
Grambow serves as director of the Clinical Research Training Program (CRTP), Duke’s flagship degree-granting program for clinical and translational research education, and as co-director of the Workforce Development Pillar of the Duke Clinical and Translational Science Institute. He provides strategic oversight for multiple educational and workforce development initiatives that span the full continuum of learners, from students to faculty.
With over two decades of experience in graduate and professional education, he has taught statistical methods and research design to more than 1,000 physician-scientists, clinical fellows, and faculty at Duke and the NIH.
The Association for Clinical and Translational Science (ACTS), a non-profit membership association of translational scientists from the nation’s leading academic medical centers, honored its Translational Science Award recipients at its Translational Science 2026 annual meeting.
Individuals and teams are nominated by their colleagues and peers and may be selected from all industry segments.
