DESCRIPTION (Adapted From The Applicant?s Abstract): This is an application for a new Institutional Training Grant in Neural Injury and Plasticity. We request support for 2 advanced pre-doctoral (thesis research) students and two post-doctoral fellows who will be trained in research in neural injury and plasticity by faculty participating in the Center for Neural Injury and Recovery (CNIR) at Georgetown University. The purpose of this training program is to prepare scientists and physicians to investigate fundamental mechanisms of neural injury, and basic mechanisms of plasticity in response to injury that may be functionally beneficial or detrimental. Our goal is to train researchers who will be capable of, and committed to, the development of novel and effective treatment strategies to reduce the functional impairments associated with neural injury. An experienced and wellfunded group of 20 faculty with a wide range of research interests and expertise relevant to neural injury and plasticity will participate in training. A key aspect of the program is that students will have comentors and their research will represent collaboration between the laboratories of the training faculty. Pre-doctoral students will enter the Program in Neural Injury and Plasticity after basic training in neuroscience under the auspices of the Georgetown University Interdisciplinary Program in Neuroscience or appropriate departmental Ph.D. programs. Students will have the opportunity for research rotations in the laboratories of the training faculty in their first two years of training while they are completing required and elective courses. They will develop a thesis research proposal in Neural Injury and Plasticity under the direction of mentors chosen from the training program. Both pre-doctoral and post-doctoral trainees will participate in educational programs of the CNIR including Research Minisymposia and specific Journal Clubs focused on current research in areas relevant to neural injury and plasticity.

描述（改编自申请人的摘要）：这是 神经损伤和可塑性的新机构培训补助金。我们要求 支持2位高级博士前（论文研究）和两个 博士后研究员将接受神经损伤和研究的培训 教师参加神经损伤中心的可塑性和 乔治敦大学的恢复（CNIR）。该培训计划的目的 是为科学家和医师做好准备，以调查基本机制 神经损伤和响应损伤的可塑性基本机制 可能在功能上有益或有害。我们的目标是培训研究人员 谁将有能力并致力于小说的发展 有效减少功能障碍的有效治疗策略 神经损伤。一支经验丰富且丰富的20位教职员工的团体 与神经损伤有关的广泛研究兴趣和专业知识 可塑性将参加培训。该程序的一个关键方面是 学生将拥有Comentors，他们的研究将代表合作 在培训教师的实验室之间。博士前的学生会 在基础培训后进入神经损伤和可塑性方案 乔治敦大学跨学科的主持下的神经科学 神经科学或适当部门博士学位的计划程序。学生 将有机会在实验室中进行研究轮换 培训教师在完成的前两年培训 需要和选择课程。他们将在 在从中选择的导师指导下的神经损伤和可塑性 培训计划。博士后和博士后学员都将参加 在CNIR的教育计划中，包括研究迷你宫和 特定期刊俱乐部专注于与神经相关领域的当前研究 伤害和可塑性。
