PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The design and implementation of improved therapies for vascular diseases are dependent on a better understanding of the basic physiological processes involved. Such processes are biologically complex, with elements at the molecular, cellular, organ system, and integrative levels. Research into the pathophysiology of vascular diseases and their treatments will be strengthened by training vascular surgeon-scientists in investigative methods allowing them to develop and maintain state-of-the-art laboratory skills and pursue novel strategies for cure and prevention. The goal of the University of Florida - Interdisciplinary Training for Vascular Surgeon Scientists (ITVSS) Program is to provide the training required for success as future academic surgeons and scientists in the field of vascular surgery. Graduates of our training program will be prepared to join an academic surgical faculty, conduct independent research, compete for grant funding, and provide translational surgical expertise at their institutions. At the core of our program are the following specific aims: 1) provide a 2-year integrated training program for four surgery residents and/or fellows to create a career pathway for conducting mechanistic and clinically relevant translational research in vascular disease; 2) implement a training program that promotes a learning cycle of concrete experiences, active experimentation, reflective observation, and abstract conceptualization; 3) closely monitor and track trainee-related experiences and outcomes that will serve as a foundation for evaluating the current status of the program and for making continuous quality improvements; 4) create a culture for professional excellence based on enhancing rigor, reproducibility and transparency in research and establishing a career trajectory as leaders in the surgical delivery of vascular care; and 5) maintain the research-focused, career trajectory developed during the fellowship by promoting a culture of scholarly activity, foster interaction among the ITVSS trainees, mentors, and Directors during the completion of clinical training. Unique aspects of the ITVSS Program include: 1) a high-density of NIH-funded surgeon-scientists providing the necessary training environment and role models; 2) use of a team mentoring approach, where each trainee has an identified research and clinical mentor; 3) trainee engagement in an “Immersive Training Experience” that is outside of their research focus area, to provide the foundation for conducting team-based, multi- disciplinary research; 4) support by a robust vascular research portfolio that offers trainees high-quality experiences in basic, translational, outcomes, and clinical research; and 5) institutional backing that provides administrative and supplemental financial resources to maximize the training experience.

项目总结/摘要 血管疾病的改进疗法的设计和实施依赖于更好的 了解所涉及的基本生理过程。这些过程在生物学上是复杂的， 分子、细胞、器官系统和综合水平的元素。研究的病理生理学 将通过培训血管外科医生-科学家来加强血管疾病及其治疗， 调查方法，使他们能够发展和保持国家的最先进的实验室技能，并追求新的 治疗和预防策略。佛罗里达大学的目标-血管跨学科培训 外科医生科学家（ITVSS）计划是提供成功所需的培训，作为未来的学术外科医生 以及血管外科领域的科学家们。我们培训计划的毕业生将准备加入一个 学术外科教师，进行独立的研究，争取赠款资金，并提供翻译 外科专业知识。 在我们的计划的核心是以下具体目标：1）提供一个为期2年的综合培训计划， 四个外科住院医生和/或研究员，以创建一个职业道路，进行机械和临床 血管疾病的相关转化研究; 2）实施培训计划，促进学习 具体经验、积极实验、反思观察和抽象概念化的循环; 密切监测和跟踪与受训者有关的经验和成果，作为评估的基础 项目的现状和持续的质量改进; 4）创造一种文化， 专业卓越的基础上提高严谨性，再现性和透明度的研究和建立 作为血管护理手术提供领导者的职业轨迹;以及5）保持以研究为重点， 在奖学金期间，通过促进学术活动文化，促进互动， 在完成临床培训期间，在ITVSS学员、导师和董事中进行培训。 ITVSS计划的独特之处包括：1）NIH资助的外科医生科学家的高密度， 必要的培训环境和角色模型; 2）使用团队指导方法， 有一个确定的研究和临床导师; 3）学员参与“沉浸式培训体验” 这是他们的研究重点领域之外，为开展基于团队的，多， 学科研究; 4）由强大的血管研究组合支持，为学员提供高质量的 在基础、转化、成果和临床研究方面的经验;以及5）提供 行政和补充财政资源，以最大限度地扩大培训经验。
