Research Education

摘要/摘要 波士顿OAIC REC的总体目标是培养未来的独立研究科学家，他们具有 将疾病和残疾的基本机制转化为小说的知识和技能 可以改善人们随着年龄增长的健康、身体功能和福祉的干预措施。 REC将通过选择最有前途的早期职业(Pre-K奖)科学家来实现这一目标 临床和基础科学学科，并为他们提供集体和个人 教育活动、研究经验、指导和职业指导，使他们能够 获得未来职业发展或研究奖项，并最终成为翻译领域的领导者 致力于发现功能促进疗法(FPT)的研究。区域经济共同体的具体目标 详情如下： 1.从不同的临床和基础科学学科中挑选至少6名有才华的早期研究人员 他们有很强的潜力成为致力于翻译研究的独立调查人员。 2.为这些学员提供为期两年的研究指导经验，重点是 随着年龄的增长，为人们开发促进功能的疗法。 3.通过研究研讨会加强对这些学员在相关课程领域的教育 和讲座，正式的课程作业，以及关于科学和技术多样性重要性的具体培训 保护人类和/或动物主体。 到拟议的5年资助期结束时，我们将至少挑选和培训6名 在老龄化领域有希望的新的研究人员。这些早期调查人员将获得 生成和测试新假设所需的数据、研究经验和指导 并成功地为其未来的研究争取到独立的资金。这些 个人将用未来的领导人丰富国家的劳动力，他们将继续开发新的 促进老年身体机能并培训未来几代调查人员的干预措施 继续就这一重要主题开展至关重要的工作。

SUMMARY / ABSTRACT The overall goal of the Boston OAIC REC is to train future independent research scientists who have the knowledge and skills to translate fundamental mechanisms of disease and disability into novel interventions that can improve the health, physical function, and well-being of people as they age. The REC will achieve this by selecting the most promising early career (Pre-K Award) scientists from clinical and basic science disciplines, and providing them with both collective and individual educational activities, research experiences, mentoring, and career guidance that will enable them to acquire future career development or research awards and ultimately become leaders in translational research devoted to the discovery of function promoting therapies (FPTs). The REC’s specific aims are as follows: 1. To select at least 6 talented early investigators from diverse clinical and basic science disciplines who have strong potential to become independent investigators devoted to translational research. 2. To provide these trainees with two-year mentored research experiences focused on the development of function-promoting therapies for people as they age. 3. To enhance the education of these trainees in relevant curricular areas through research seminars and lectures, formal coursework, and specific training in the importance of diversity in science and the protection of human and/or animal subjects. By the completion of the proposed 5-year funding period, we will have selected and trained at least 6 promising new investigators in the field of aging. These early stage investigators will acquire the necessary data, research experience, and mentorship to generate and test new hypotheses regarding FPTs and compete successfully for independent funding for their future research. These individuals will enrich the nation’s workforce with future leaders who will continue to develop new interventions to promote physical function in old age and also train future generations of investigators to continue vital work on this important theme.
