项目总结 爱荷华州斯塔尔学者计划旨在帮助解决持续不断的内科科学家需求 内科和儿科领域。爱荷华大学卡弗医学院(CCOM)有一个 优秀的内科科学家群体，培养内科科学家的传统，以及悠久的 医生-科学家的领导力。爱荷华州斯塔尔学者计划将在培训早期识别住院医生 在实习期间对指导研究经验感兴趣的人。《公约》的具体目标 计划包括：目标1.从爱荷华大学内部招聘和培养优秀学者 医学和儿科住院医生计划，以增加内科科学家的渠道。目标2.创造 激励和鼓励有前途的实习生走上职业道路的学术环境 医生兼科学家。目标3.在以下领域提供高度集中和有指导的研究经验 心血管疾病、肺部疾病、血液疾病和睡眠疾病促进了《学者》的成功。目标4.开发一种 为每位Starr学者提供个性化的指导和职业发展计划，以确保掌握 临床技能和出色的科学家培训和发展。目标5.提供指导和建议 用于随后的专题研究金培训。我们将重点关注那些可能没有其他技能的实习生 被认为是作为内科科学家的职业，并将为他们提供机会、指导和技能 他们需要成功。这将通过12-18年的积极指导研究经验来实现 在他们居住的情况下有几个月的时间。在此计划之后，我们预计学员将继续 以研究为重点的子专业培训，在学术领域追求研究型独立职业 医疗中心。我们确定了一支由杰出的、多样化的、成就卓著的基础、翻译和 对NHLBI优先事项作出反应的临床研究。爱荷华州斯塔尔学者计划将提供一个 有利于成功。主要特点包括：1)有指导的研究体验，促进学者们的 作为一名内科科学家的成功和对职业的热情。这包括沉浸在丰富的研究中 与成功的医生-科学家互动的环境；2)设计的个人发展计划 围绕学员的经验和职业目标，并由指导委员会监督；3)定期 评估研究能力；4)交流形式的培训，包括幻灯片准备， 规划科学讲座、在区域和国家会议上的演讲以及手稿写作和 出版；5)一系列计划活动，包括选定的课程、会议和专题讨论会，设计 以丰富研究经验，并为未来的成功提供背景。在爱荷华州的项目结束时 斯塔尔学者应具备获得儿科委员会资格所需的临床和研究背景 或内科，成功完成专科培训，通过K38计划寻求支持，并晋级到 面向独立研究职业的教职员工职位。

PROJECT SUMMARY The Iowa StARR Scholars Program is designed to help address the continuing need for physician-scientists in the fields of internal medicine and pediatrics. The University of Iowa Carver College of Medicine (CCOM) has an outstanding group of physician-scientists, a tradition of training physician-scientists, and a long history of physician-scientist leadership. The Iowa StARR Scholars Program will identify residents early in their training who have an interest in a mentored research experience during their residency. The Specific Aims of the program include: Aim 1. To recruit and train outstanding Scholars from the University of Iowa internal medicine and pediatric residency programs to increase the pipeline of physician-scientists. Aim 2. To create an academic environment that stimulates and encourages promising trainees toward a career path as a physician-scientist. Aim 3. To provide a highly focused and mentored research experience in the areas of cardiovascular, lung, blood, and sleep diseases that promotes the Scholar’s success. Aim 4. To develop a personalized mentoring and career development plan for each StARR Scholar that ensures mastery of clinical skills and outstanding training and development as a scientist. Aim 5. To provide guidance and advice for subsequent subspecialty fellowship training. We will focus on trainees who may not have otherwise considered a career as a physician-scientist, and will provide them with the opportunities, mentoring, and skills they need to succeed. This will be accomplished through a positive mentored research experience over 12-18 months in the context of their residency. Subsequent to this program, we anticipate that trainees will pursue subspecialty training with a research focus and pursue research-oriented independent careers in academic medical centers. We identified a team of outstanding, diverse, accomplished mentors in basic, translational, and clinical research responsive to NHLBI priorities. The Iowa StARR Scholars Program will provide an environment conducive to success. Key features include: 1) a mentored research experience that promotes the Scholars’ success and enthusiasm for a career as a physician-scientist. This includes immersion in a rich research environment with interactions with successful physician-scientists; 2) an individual development plan designed around the trainee’s experience and career goals and supervised by a mentoring committee; 3) regular assessment of research competencies; 4) training in forms of communication including slide preparation, planning of scientific talks, presentations at regional and national meetings, and manuscript writing and publication; 5) a range of program activities including selected coursework, conferences and symposia, designed to enrich the research experience and provide context for future success. At the completion of the program Iowa StARR Scholars should have the clinical and research backgrounds needed to attain board eligibility in pediatrics or internal medicine, succeed in subspecialty training, pursue support via the K38 program, and advance to faculty positions aimed at independent research careers.
