PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Objective: The continuing goal of the Basic Microbiology and Infectious Disease (BMID) training program is to augment the training of outstanding predoctoral students in the areas of microbiology and infectious disease and to prepare them for exceptional and productive careers in biomedical research. Rationale and Need for the BMID: Infectious disease continues to have a major impact on human health and there is a growing need for well-trained and highly skilled researchers to study mechanisms of pathogenesis and to develop new methods of detection, treatment, and prevention. History and Leadership of the BMID Program: The BMID is entering its 42nd year at the University of Florida. Dr. David Bloom has been PD/PI since 2002 and has been assisted by Associate Director, Dr. Stephanie Karst, since 2016. The program is guided by an Internal Advisory Board as well as an External Advisory Board who visit annually for a site visit and Mini-Symposium and provide program evaluation. Design of the Program: The overarching goals of the program design are to: 1) expose our trainees to research on infectious disease from the combined perspective of clinical and basic sciences and 2) provide microbiology and infectious disease-centric professional development and career guidance to enhance future success. Research Areas and Faculty Composition: Seventeen faculty preceptors come from 4 colleges and 7 departments/divisions. Composition: 10 male, 7 female; 11 Professors, 4 Associate and 2 Assistant Professors; 6 bacteriologists; 6 virologists; 1 parasitologist and 4 infection-related immunologists. Institutional Support: UF provides specifically for the BMID: 1) 0.1 FTE for the PI/PD; 0.3 FTE for a program assistant; support for internships, seminars, professional development roundtables, summer internships for graduate and minority recruiting. Training Level and Duration of Training: We are requesting 6 predoctoral training positions. Trainees are generally appointed after their second year (after entering candidacy) for 2 years of support. BMID-specific Training Components: Combined Microbiology & Infectious Disease Case Conferences; Distinguished Lectures in Microbiology and Infectious Disease Seminar Series; Professional Development Meetings; Career Roundtables; Internship program; and Training in Responsible Conduct and Ethics. Progress: Over the last 20 years: 92% of trainees have graduated with a Ph.D.; 82% of those are in research- related careers and the remaining 18% are in medically-related careers. During the last 5 years, out of 15 trainees appointed, the composition: 8 females (53%) and 7 (47%) males; 3 (20%) URMs. Proposed New Components: Leadership Development Workshop and Summer Research Internships Internships in Microbiology (SRIMP) for recruiting top undergraduates to UF (and the BMID).

项目总结/摘要 目的：基础微生物学和传染病（BMID）培训计划的持续目标是 加强微生物学和传染病领域优秀博士预科生的培训， 为他们在生物医学研究中的特殊和富有成效的职业生涯做好准备。 BMID的原理和需要：传染病继续对人类健康产生重大影响， 越来越需要训练有素和技术高超的研究人员来研究发病机制， 开发新的检测、治疗和预防方法。 BMID项目的历史和领导力：BMID在佛罗里达大学即将进入第42个年头。博士 大卫布卢姆自2002年以来一直是PD/PI，并一直由副主任斯蒂芬妮喀斯特博士， 自2016年以来。该计划由内部咨询委员会和外部咨询委员会指导， 每年进行一次实地考察和小型研讨会，并提供项目评估。 该计划的设计：该计划设计的总体目标是：1）暴露我们的学员研究 从临床和基础科学的结合角度研究传染病，2）提供微生物学 和传染病为中心的专业发展和职业指导，以提高未来的成功。 研究领域和教师组成：17名教师来自4所学院和7所大学。 部门/司。组成：男10人，女7人;教授11人，副教授4人，助理教授2人; 6名细菌学家; 6名病毒学家; 1名寄生虫学家和4名感染相关免疫学家。 机构支持：UF专门为BMID提供：1）PI/PD 0.1 FTE; 0.3 FTE用于程序 助理;支持实习，研讨会，专业发展圆桌会议，夏季实习， 毕业生和少数民族招聘。 培训水平和培训时间：我们要求6个博士前培训职位。学员 一般在他们的第二年（进入候选人资格后）被任命为2年的支持。 BMID-specific培训内容：微生物学和传染病综合病例会议; 微生物学和传染病研讨会系列杰出讲座;专业发展 会议;职业圆桌会议;实习计划;以及负责任的行为和道德培训。 进展：在过去20年中：92%的受训人员获得博士学位;其中82%是在研究中- 其余18%从事与医疗有关的职业。在过去5年中，15名受训人员中 任命，组成：8名女性（53%）和7名男性（47%）; 3名（20%）统一资源管理员。 拟议的新组成部分：领导力发展讲习班和夏季研究实习 在微生物学实习（SRIMP）招聘顶尖本科生UF（和BMID）。
