PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This application for the UCLA Resident Scientist Training Program (RSTP) proposes a novel approach to recruiting, training, and retaining clinician-investigators at the level of clinical residency. The overarching goal of the RSTP is to increase the recruitment and retention of qualified clinician-investigators to pursue successful scientific careers in cardiovascular, hematologic, and pulmonary diseases. Our program will focus on promising internal medicine residents from our large program, with deep interest in becoming physician- scientists, but for whom there is neither structured access into the research training pipeline, nor infrastructure and financial support. Our aims will be to: 1) Recruit and select highly qualified residents who are motivated to study cardiovascular, pulmonary, or hematologic sciences, 2) Ensure adequate protected time and supplemental support during residency, 3) Provide intense research training by pairing them with carefully selected leading scientists, and 4) Cultivate commitment through career development training by senior experienced mentors and exposure to our large community of physician-scientist faculty and trainees. This proposal is based on 25 years of successful experience with the UCLA Specialty Training and Advanced Research (STAR) Program in selecting, recruiting, training, and mentoring physician-scientists at the level of clinical fellowship training. An analysis of the first 20 years of that program, which combines clinical fellowship with graduate level research leading to a PhD degree, showed that 80% of its trainees remained in active research careers. This RSTP will be directed by the Founder and Executive Director of the UCLA STAR Program, and while it is a natural extension of the existing program, it is clearly distinct. The RSTP will provide 15 months of protected time for research in basic, translational, or health services/policy research. Each Resident-Scientist will have an Individualized Development Plan crafted by the resident, Research Preceptor, and RSTP leadership. This plan will set the framework for their intense research training, and the basis for evaluating the trainees' progress by an Advisory Committee of UCLA faculty with intimate experience of career development and of administering training grants. Resident-Scientists will be integrated into our existing curriculum for physician-scientist trainees. A total of 6 positions are requested for the 4-year project period, and support will be requested for the research-training component only. Two additional spots will be fully funded by the Department of Medicine. The faculty will include 33 carefully selected Research Preceptors with a track record of sustained extramural funding and mentoring scientists, representing the Cardiovascular, Pulmonary, and Hematology/Oncology divisions, the Schools of Engineering and Public Health, as well as the RAND Graduate School. By building on the same effective research training environment for clinicians that has been successfully employed by STAR Program, this proposal will attract, train, and retain clinician-investigators to address the declining fraction of the scientific workforce represented by physician-scientists.

项目总结/摘要 加州大学洛杉矶分校驻地科学家培训计划（RSTP）的这一申请提出了一种新的方法， 招募、培训和保留临床住院医师水平的临床研究者。总体目标 RSTP的目的是增加合格的临床研究人员的招聘和保留， 心血管、血液和肺部疾病的科学事业。我们的计划将集中在 有前途的内科住院医生从我们的大计划，有浓厚的兴趣成为医生- 科学家，但对他们来说，既没有结构化的研究培训渠道，也没有基础设施 和财政支持。我们的目标将是：1）招募和选择高素质的居民谁是 有动机学习心血管、肺或血液科学，2）确保足够的保护时间 在住院期间提供补充支持，3）通过将他们与 精心挑选的顶尖科学家，以及4）通过职业发展培训培养承诺， 资深经验丰富的导师和接触到我们的大社区的医生，科学家的教师和学员。 该建议是基于25年的成功经验与加州大学洛杉矶分校专业培训和高级 研究（星星）计划在选择，招聘，培训和指导医生，科学家的水平， 临床研究员培训。对该项目前20年的分析，该项目结合了临床奖学金， 研究生水平的研究导致博士学位，表明80%的学员仍然活跃在 研究生涯。该RSTP将由加州大学洛杉矶分校星星的创始人和执行董事指导 程序，虽然它是现有程序的自然扩展，但它显然是不同的。RSTP将提供 15个月的保护时间，用于基础，转化或卫生服务/政策研究。每个 驻院科学家将有一个由驻院研究导师制定的个性化发展计划， RSTP领导力该计划将为他们的密集研究培训奠定框架，并为 由具有丰富职业经验的加州大学洛杉矶分校教师组成的咨询委员会评估学员的进步 开发和管理培训赠款。实习科学家将融入我们现有的 为实习医生和科学家开设的课程。4年项目期共请设6个职位， 将只要求对研究培训部分提供支助。另外两个名额将由 医学系。该学院将包括33名精心挑选的研究指导员， 持续的校外资助和指导科学家的记录，代表心血管，肺， 和血液学/肿瘤学部门，工程学院和公共卫生学院，以及兰德公司 研究生院通过为临床医生建立同样有效的研究培训环境， 成功地被星星计划所采用，该提案将吸引、培训和留住临床研究者， 解决以医生-科学家为代表的科学劳动力比例下降的问题。
