There is a growing need for physician-scientists to translate developments in basic neuroscience into improvement in clinical care. Obtaining funding for basic, clinical, and translational research, however, has become increasingly difficult for clinician-investigators. Clinical neuroscience trainees require protected research time and mentoring during formative stages of their careers to compete successfully for mentored career (K) awards and other grants. The Columbia University Neurology Department has been a strong proponent of incorporating research into the training experience of residents. Beginning in 1979, the department had a T32 Clinical Neuroscience Training Program, which provided funding for PGY4 residents and first year fellows to learn research methodology. Since 2002, a Resident Research Mentorship Program has paired residents with faculty mentors to work on research, and since 2011 a scholarly project is required for all residents. Beginning in March 2010, this R25 research mentorship program has provided opportunities for 11 residents (9 neurologists, one neurosurgeon, one neuropathologist) to participate in mentored research projects (~mean 1.4 residents per year); another three residents (1 neurologist, 2 neuropathologists) applied for supplements in October 2018. Five residents have completed the R25 experience, including fellowship. Of these 5, all remain involved in research and 4 obtained further funding; three (60%) have applied for K awards, and two (40%) have obtained independent K awards (one K08, one K23); the third obtained a KL2 award and resubmitted his K08 in November 2018. Of the five trainees still in the program, four plan to submit K award proposals within the next 1-2 years. The present proposal describes a plan to continue this formalized resident research experience for at least one resident (Neurology, Neuropathology, or Neurosurgery) annually who is considered to have exceptional promise to become an independent researcher. The focus will be on a practical, mentor-directed research experience, with limited classroom time, and participating residents will continue to be optimally situated to compete for mentored career (K) awards at completion of training. Dr. Elkind, the Program Director/PI, a tenured Professor of Neurology and Epidemiology at Columbia University, has independent NIH funding for clinical research, extensive experience mentoring residents and fellows (including directing an NINDS T32 in Neuroepidemiology), and experience reviewing grants. The newly introduced co-Investigator and co-Director, Dr. James Goldman, is an experienced neuropathologist and NIH- funded laboratory scientist with extensive mentoring experience. The 47 faculty members of the program are all experienced researchers with track records of mentoring. The program will continue to be evaluated primarily by the trainees' success in obtaining K awards, as well as by academic career placement and productivity in publications.

越来越需要医生-科学家将基础神经科学的发展转化为 改善临床护理。然而，获得基础、临床和转化研究的资金， 对临床医生和研究人员来说越来越困难。临床神经科学实习生需要保护 研究时间和指导在他们的职业生涯的形成阶段，以成功地竞争辅导 职业（K）奖励和其他赠款。哥伦比亚大学神经病学系一直是一个强大的 建议将研究纳入住院医师的培训经验。从1979年开始， 该部门有一个T32临床神经科学培训计划，为PGY 4居民提供资金 和第一年的研究员学习研究方法。自2002年以来，居民研究导师计划 已经配对居民与教师导师进行研究，自2011年以来，需要一个学术项目 所有居民。从2010年3月开始，这个R25研究导师计划提供了 11名住院医师（9名神经科医生，1名神经外科医生，1名神经病理学家）参与指导研究 项目（约平均每年1.4名住院医生）;另外3名住院医生（1名神经科医生，2名神经病理学家）申请 2018年10月补充。五名居民已经完成了R25的经验，包括奖学金。的 这5个，所有仍然参与研究，4个获得进一步的资助; 3个（60%）申请了K奖， 两名（40%）获得独立K奖（一名K 08，一名K23）;第三名获得KL 2奖， 2018年11月重新提交了K 08。在仍在该计划中的五名学员中，四名计划提交K奖 在未来1-2年内提出建议。目前的建议描述了一个计划，以继续这一正式的驻地 每年至少有一名住院医师（神经病学，神经病理学或神经外科）的研究经验， 被认为有成为一名独立研究人员的特殊希望。重点将放在 实际的，导师指导的研究经验，有限的课堂时间，和参与居民将 继续处于最佳状态，在完成培训后竞争辅导职业（K）奖。博士 Elkind，项目主任/PI，哥伦比亚大学神经病学和流行病学终身教授， 拥有独立的NIH临床研究资金，指导住院医师和研究员的丰富经验 （包括指导神经流行病学的NINDS T32）和经验审查赠款。新 介绍了共同研究者和共同主任，詹姆斯戈德曼博士，是一位经验丰富的神经病理学家和NIH- 获得资助的实验室科学家，具有丰富的指导经验。该计划的47名教师是 都是经验丰富的研究人员，有指导的记录。该计划将继续进行评估 主要取决于学员是否成功获得K奖，以及学术职业安排， 出版物的生产力。
