FELLOWSHIP IN CLINICAL RESEARCH

迈阿密大学医学院提议开发一个全校范围的临床研究课程(CRC)，以实现以下目标：(1)从高资质、不同学科的申请者中挑选学员；(2)开发一个两年制课程，以丰富和加强从事临床研究事业所需的技能；(3)促进学员与教师之间发展指导关系；以及(4)对学员和课程进行评估，以确保在研究方法方面获得密集和高度严格的培训经验。迈阿密大学在开发临床研究课程方面处于有利地位，其研究经费在现有医学院中排名前25%，并拥有高素质、资金充足的基础研究和临床研究人员。研究中心将设在主管研究的副教务长办公室，由主任、咨询委员会、课程委员会和遴选/评价委员会组成。通过正式的申请程序，将选出10至15名候选人参加为期两年的课程。由NIH资助的F(奖学金)、K(机构)或T(培训)奖支持的高积极性个人将被优先考虑。课程内容和实习生都将定期进行评估。课程内容将包括细胞生物学和移植免疫学的初级和高级课程。将提供关于计算机在研究中的使用以及在多文化人群中的研究的专门课程。在五年期间，将调整课程以适应网上学习，以便向更多的地方和国家的研究员/博士后学员提供这些课程。这一基础设施将启动一个有组织的、有针对性的全校课程，以培训对迈阿密大学医学院临床研究职业感兴趣的个人。它将为临床研究标准设定基准，并将培养出训练有素、资质高的临床研究人员，他们将为医学的未来做出重大贡献。

The University of Miami School of Medicine is proposing to develop a school-wide Clinical Research Curriculum (CRC), to attain the following goals: (1) Selecting trainees from a highly-qualified, discipline-diverse, applicant pool; (2) Developing a two-year curriculum that will enrich and strengthen the skills necessary to pursue a career in clinical research; (3) Fostering of the development of mentoring relationships between trainees and faculty; and (4) Evaluating both the trainees and the curriculum as to assure an intensive and highly-rigorous training experience in research methodology. The University of Miami is well positioned to develop a clinical research curriculum with research funding ranking in the top 25% of the existing medical schools, and highly qualified well-funded basic research and clinical investigators. The CRC will be located in the office of the Vice Provost for Research and will consist of the Director, an Advisory Committee, a Curriculum Committee, and a Selection/Evaluation Committee. Through a formal application procedure, ten to fifteen candidates will be selected to participate in the two-year curriculum. Preference will be given to highly- motivated individuals who are supported by NIH-funded F (Fellowship), K (institutional), or T (training) awards. Both the course content and the trainees will be evaluated on a regular schedule. Course contents will include both beginning and advanced courses in cellular biology and transplant immunology. Specialized courses on the use of computers in research and in research in multicultural populations will be offered. Over the five-year period, courses will be adapted to web-based learning in order to make the courses available to a larger number of fellows/postdoctoral trainees, both locally and nationally. This infrastructure will initiate an organized, targeted, school-wide curriculum for the training of individuals interested in careers in clinical research at the University of Miami School of medicine. It will set the benchmark for clinical research standards and will produce well-trained and highly-qualified, clinical investigators who will make significant contributions to the future of medicine.
