项目总结 这一激励性住院研究(STAR)计划的目标是招募、培训和指导 精选一批来自不同临床科室的优秀研究生常驻调查人员 严谨的临床和翻译研究技能，开展与衰老相关的高影响力研究项目， 并在临床或转化性衰老科学领域开展有前途的职业。这一倡议将建立在一个大型和 拥有老龄化研究专业知识的多元化教职员工，在多学科领域拥有强大的机构记录 研究生研究培训，以及由开发的现有的、成功的常驻研究培训计划 加州大学旧金山分校临床和翻译科学研究所此前曾指导过1000多名住院医生 在过去十年中完成短期临床或转化性研究项目。 我们的计划将强调临床和转化性研究，广义上包括早期转化性研究 科学、临床和流行病学调查、以人口为基础的科学和传播研究 将科学发现转化为现实世界的背景。我们设计了一个密集的，为期12个月的，连续的 STARR计划，强调临床和翻译研究方法方面的严格培训，认识到 许多寻求进行临床或转化性研究的临床医生学者缺乏正式的方法论 训练。在该计划的初始阶段，我们与部门和派驻领导密切合作 内科、神经学、精神病学、麻醉学、普通外科、泌尿外科、整形外科，以及 妇科为招募和挑选最有前途的住院调查人员制定详细计划 从这些领域，加强他们的研究培训和职业发展机会，培养他们的 在老龄化研究中与经验丰富的教师导师的关系，并指导他们获得未来 具有竞争力的研究资金，同时满足必要的董事会资格认证要求。 我们的目标是：1)每年招聘和培训3名临床住院医师，有潜力并致力于成为 成功的老年临床和转化型研究人员；2)指导这些常驻调查人员获得 更高级的方法、分析和协作技能，适合他们的培训水平；3)创建 并支持与有经验的老龄化研究导师建立有效、有影响力和持久的关系 在实习期间和实习后；以及4)指导学者成功争取其他形式的研究支持 这将为他们在临床或翻译性衰老科学领域寻求长期职业生涯铺平道路。

PROJECT SUMMARY The goal of this Stimulating Access to Research in Residency (StARR) program is to recruit, train, and mentor a select group of exceptional postgraduate resident investigators from diverse clinical departments in acquiring rigorous clinical and translational research skills, conducting high-impact research projects relevant to aging, and launching promising careers in clinical or translational aging science. This initiative will build on a large and diverse faculty with expertise in aging research, a strong institutional track record in multidisciplinary postgraduate research training, and an existing, successful Resident Research Training Program developed by the UCSF Clinical and Translational Science Institute that has previously guided over a thousand residents in completing short-term clinical or translational research projects over the past decade. Our program will emphasize clinical and translational research, defined broadly to include early translational science, clinical and epidemiologic investigations, population-based science, and dissemination research to translate scientific findings into real-world settings. We have designed an intensive, 12-month, contiguous StARR program that emphasizes rigorous training in clinical and translational research methods, recognizing that many clinician scholars seeking to pursue clinical or translational research lack formal methodologic training. For the initial stages of this program, we have worked closely with department and residency leaders in internal medicine, neurology, psychiatry, anesthesia, general surgery, urology, orthopaedic surgery, and gynecology to develop a detailed plan for recruiting and selecting the most promising resident investigators from these fields, enhancing their research training and career development opportunities, cultivating their relationships with experienced faculty mentors in aging research, and guiding them in obtaining future competitive research funding, while simultaneously fulfilling necessary board credentialing requirements. Our aims are to: 1) recruit and train 3 clinical residents annually with the potential and commitment to become successful clinical and translational researchers in aging; 2) guide these resident investigators in obtaining more advanced methodological, analytic, and collaborative skills appropriate for their level of training; 3) create and support effective, influential, and long-lasting relationships with accomplished aging research mentors during and after residency; and 4) guide scholars in successfully competing for other forms of research support that will pave the way for them to pursue long-term careers in clinical or translational aging science.
