ALLERGY AND IMMUNOLOGY TRAINING GRANT

描述(改编自申请)：此申请是为了支持过敏和临床免疫学的培训计划，该计划是为耶鲁大学医学院的博士后医学和儿科实习生设计的。在过敏、临床免疫学、风湿病、肺病和传染病科，以及儿科设有双重培训系，首先是医学系的临床医生和研究人员，其次是免疫生物学系的基础科学免疫学培训系。该学院的专业知识横跨过敏、临床免疫学和现代免疫学的重要领域；包括：细胞、分子、生化、抗原处理/呈递和信号研究。一些教职员工是莱姆病方面的专家，这种疾病是在耶鲁大学的这个培训项目中发现的。有过敏和临床免疫学的医学和儿科方面的培训，也有风湿科、皮肤科、胃肠科、肺科和耳鼻喉科的培训。培训师资配备齐全，主要仪器包括：4台细胞荧光仪、1台寡核苷酸合成仪、1台多肽蛋白质闪光仪。这是一个小型培训计划，每年只招收一名新研究员，大量教职员工强调至少需要3-5年的研究实验室培训，为受训人员准备研究医学职位。教师有良好的培训记录和协作研究互动；特别是在过敏和临床免疫学培训补助金下。这些研究员在第一年的大部分时间里都在从事临床活动。第二年和第三年几乎全部在实验室里，在教员导师的指导下制定研究计划，参加各种免疫生物学课程，参加每周的研讨会和期刊俱乐部，并定期就他们的研究和共同感兴趣的主题进行演讲。该计划为学术医学和儿科未来的职位提供独特和高质量的培训，并在20多年的持续资助下取得了成功。

DESCRIPTION (adapted from the application): This application is for support of a training program in Allergy and Clinical Immunology, that is designed for post-doctoral medical and pediatric trainees at Yale University School of Medicine. There is a double training faculty of firstly, clinician-researchers in the Department of Medicine, in the Sections of Allergy, and Clinical Immunology, Rheumatology, Pulmonary, and Infectious Diseases, and also in Pediatrics; and secondly, a basic sciences immunology training faculty in the Department of Immunobiology. The faculty's expertise spans the areas important to allergy, clinical immunology, and modern immunology; including: cellular, molecular, biochemical, antigen-processing/presenting, and signaling research. Some faculty are experts in Lyme disease, which was discovered at Yale in this training program. There is training in both medical and pediatric aspects of Allergy, and Clinical immunology, and also some training in Rheumatology, Dermatology, Gastroenterology, Pulmonary, and ENT. The training faculty is well equipped with major instruments including: 4 cytofluorographs, an oligonucleotide synthesizer, and peptide protein sequinator. This is a small training program, taking only one new fellow per year, with a large faculty emphasizing the need for at least of 3-5 years of research laboratory training to prepare trainees for positions in research medicine. The faculty have a strong training record and collaborative research interactions; especially under this Allergy and Clinical Immunology Training Grant. The fellows spend most of their first year engaged in clinical activities. The 2nd and 3rd years are spent almost entirely in the laboratory developing a research program, under the guidance of a faculty mentor, taking various immunobiology courses, participating in weekly seminars and journal clubs, and regularly giving talks on their research, and on subjects of mutual interest. The program offers unique and high quality training for future positions in academic medicine and pediatrics, and has been successful over more than 20 years of continuous funding.
