项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY Physician-scientists play a unique role in bridging the gap between basic science and clinicians through the identification of important clinical questions and translating results to improve patient care. Unfortunately, the physician-scientist workforce continues to diminish and contributes to negative, long-lasting consequences in biomedical research. Many residency programs focus heavily on acquiring medical knowledge as opposed to fostering intellectual curiosity and an introduction into the biomedical research field. In this proposal, we aim to enhance attractiveness and preparedness for a career as a physician-scientist during residency training. Furthering the diminishing interest in a career as a physician-scientist is the ability to identify an encouraging and successful mentor. There is a critical need for a renewed emphasis on established physician- scientists as role models to trainees. Infectious Disease and Immunology are fundamental areas of science that greatly benefits from a robust physician-scientist workforce. Massachusetts General Hospital/Harvard Medical School, particularly in the Departments of Medicine and Surgery, has a long track record of training physician-scientists. We hypothesize that early and longitudinal mentorship combined with development of research and professional development skills in the areas of Infectious Diseases and Immunology will make the physician-scientist career path attractive and sustainable. To this end, we propose the implementation of the MGH-Next Generation Physician-Scientist Training Pathways (MGH-Next Gen PSTP) program in Immunology and Infectious Disease. The MGH-Next Gen PSTP program is centered around the following objectives: Objective 1: Foster the creation of important scientific contributions through strong, longitudinal mentorship with an emphasis on leadership essentials. Objective 2: Develop sufficient basic laboratory and epidemiology approaches necessary to conduct high-quality research in the areas of immunology and infectious diseases. Objective 3: Formulate hypothesis-based research questions, development and execution of a research project, and effectively communicate the significance of their science. Together, these initiatives are designed to attract, train, and retain MDs in biomedical investigation at the most critical juncture of their career - residency training.

项目摘要医师科学家在弥合基础科学与临床医生之间的差距方面发挥了独特的作用通过确定重要的临床问题并翻译结果以改善患者关心。不幸的是，医师科学家劳动力继续减少并有助于生物医学研究中的负面后果。许多居住计划的重点大量获得医学知识，而不是培养智力好奇心和介绍生物医学研究领域。在此提案中，我们旨在增强吸引力并准备在居住培训期间担任医师科学家的职业。进一步减少对作为医生科学家职业的兴趣是确定令人鼓舞的能力和成功的导师。迫切需要重新强调已建立的医师 - 科学家作为学员的榜样。传染病和免疫学是基本领域科学的大大受益于强大的医师科学家劳动力。马萨诸塞州综合医院/哈佛医学院，特别是在医学部门手术，在培训医师科学家方面有很长的记录。我们假设这很早就纵向指导与研究和专业发展的发展相结合传染病和免疫学领域的技能将使医生科学家职业路径有吸引力和可持续性。为此，我们建议实施MGH-next 一代医师科学家培训途径（MGH-NEXT Gen PSTP）计划免疫学和传染病。 MGH-next Gen PSTP计划以围绕以下目标：目标1：通过强大，促进重要科学贡献纵向指导，重点是领导要素。目标2：开发足够的基本实验室和流行病学方法在免疫学和传染病领域进行高质量研究。目标3：提出基于假设的研究问题，发展和执行研究项目，并有效地传达其科学的重要性。这些举措一起旨在吸引，训练和保留生物医学中的MD 在其职业生涯中最关键的关键时期的调查 - 居住培训。
