PROJECT SUMMARY Funds are requested for the third cycle of the Kansas Training Program in Neurological and Rehabilitation Sciences. The aim of the program is to provide interdisciplinary practical training and theoretical instruction in translational research in basic and clinical aspects of neuroscience, especially as it applies to neurological conditions amenable to rehabilitative treatments. The interdisciplinary nature of this offering is unique in that basic science trainees participate in clinical aspects of neurological disorders and clinical trainees are exposed to laboratory research and basic neurobiological mechanisms. The training program utilizes basic science and clinical research expertise of the faculty to cross-fertilize the training experience. Didactic training includes core curricula for predoctoral students in the Integrated Graduate Program in Biomedical Science, the Graduate Program in Neuroscience, the MD/PhD program, the Graduate Program in Rehabilitation Science, and the Graduate Program in Bioengineering, providing a firm groundwork for understanding basic genetic, molecular and cellular mechanisms. Besides the two to three years of support offered to full-time trainees, short-term, summer training experiences are offered to medical and health professions (Doctorate in Physical Therapy) students. The summer training program is designed to expose clinical students to the complex interdisciplinary approaches needed to maximize neurorehabilitation approaches. The summer research experience has made the short-term trainees more competitive for top flight residencies, and inspired health professionals to alter their career path to develop into clinician-scientists. The predoctoral preceptors area composed of 15 basic science and clinical mentors, along with 28 short-term mentors and administrative faculty. The mentors are located within 13 academic departments in the School of Medicine and the School of Health Professions at the University of Kansas Medical Center, and the College of Engineering at the University of Kansas-Lawrence. The strength of this group is evidenced by the expertise and caliber of the research faculty, the outstanding research infrastructure, the focus on translating basic neuroscience discoveries into treatments for neurological disorders, and the collaborative interactions between the basic and clinical faculty that are needed for an effective interdisciplinary training program. Laboratory research and apprenticeships, courses, seminars, guest lectures, journal clubs, data sessions, and poster presentations are included in the program to ensure frequent interactions between the trainees and faculty. A new feature of the program in this cycle is a more formal relationship with the Bioengineering Graduate Program, allowing us to provide bioengineering mentors and engineering content to our required course in Neurorehabilitation. The recruitment and selection of trainees is overseen by an Internal Advisory Committee, with input from the participating faculty. In addition, the program is monitored by an External Advisory Committee composed of national leaders in graduate training in neuroscience, rehabilitation science and bioengineering.

项目摘要 要求为堪萨斯神经病学和康复培训方案第三周期提供资金 以理工科为重该计划的目的是提供跨学科的实践培训和理论指导， 神经科学的基础和临床方面的转化研究，特别是当它适用于神经学 适合康复治疗的条件。该产品的跨学科性质是独一无二的， 基础科学受训者参与神经系统疾病的临床方面，临床受训者接触 实验室研究和基本神经生物学机制。培训计划利用基础科学和 教师的临床研究专业知识，以交叉施肥的培训经验。教学培训包括核心 生物医学科学综合研究生课程的博士前学生课程，研究生 神经科学计划，MD/PhD计划，康复科学研究生课程，以及 生物工程研究生课程，为了解基本的遗传，分子， 和细胞机制。除了为全职学员提供两到三年的支持外， 为医疗和健康专业提供暑期培训经验（物理治疗博士） 学生暑期培训计划旨在使临床学生接触复杂的跨学科 最大限度地利用神经康复方法。暑期研究经历使 短期受训人员更有竞争力的顶级飞行住院医师，并激励卫生专业人员改变 他们的职业道路发展成为临床科学家。博士前导师区由15个基本的 科学和临床导师，沿着28名短期导师和行政人员。导师是 位于13个学术部门在医学院和卫生保健学院在 堪萨斯大学医学中心和堪萨斯-劳伦斯大学工程学院。 这个小组的实力是由研究人员的专业知识和口径证明，杰出的 研究基础设施，重点将基础神经科学发现转化为神经系统治疗方法 疾病，以及基础和临床教师之间的合作互动，需要一个 有效的跨学科培训计划。实验室研究和学徒，课程，研讨会，客人 讲座，期刊俱乐部，数据会议和海报展示都包括在该计划中，以确保经常 学员和教师之间的互动。在这个周期中，程序的一个新特点是更正式的 与生物工程研究生课程的关系，使我们能够提供生物工程导师， 神经康复学必修课的工程学内容学员的招募和选拔是 由内部咨询委员会监督，与参与教师的投入。此外，该方案 由一个外部咨询委员会监测，该委员会由接受研究生培训的国家领导人组成， 神经科学、康复科学和生物工程。
