NEONATAL TRAINING GRANT

描述（由申请人提供）：本培训基金要求为三年级和四年级的新生儿医学博士提供3个研究培训职位，以培养足够的研究经验，开始在新生儿学术领域的职业生涯。该培训项目将补充儿童医院医学中心（CHMC）多年来有9至12名研究员接受培训的临床新生儿学奖学金。培训补助金将只支持那些经过两年的奖学金后显示出真正的研究潜力和动力的研究员。研究培训的结构是一个有指导的经验，在培训中与高级导师一起工作，通常与副导师一起工作。所有导师都是CHMC新生儿/肺生物学部门的成员，包括6名医学博士临床医生/研究人员，5名医学博士/博士。临床医生/研究人员和7名医学博士/博士。或博士研究人员，作为一个大型合作小组，以肺部发育和肺损伤为共同的研究主题。该小组使用最先进的技术来探索肺生物学的问题，从分子遗传学和转基因模型到肺生理学。由NICHD新生儿研究网络支持的临床研究补充了肺部研究。这项培训补助金的目标是只支持那些有潜力和动力成为成功的以研究为导向的学术新生儿学家的新生儿学家的研究培训。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This training grant requests support for 3 research training positions for 3rd and 4th year M.D. neonatology fellows to develop sufficient research experience to initiate careers in academic neonatology. This training program will supplement the clinical neonatology fellowship that has had 9 to 12 fellows in training at Children's Hospital Medical Center (CHMC) for many years. The training grant will support only those select fellows that demonstrate real research potential and motivation after the first 2 years of fellowship. The research training is structured a mentored experience with the fellow in training working with a senior mentor and often with an associate mentor. All mentors are members of the Neonatology/Pulmonary Biology Division at CHMC and include 6 M.D. clinicians/researchers, 5 M.D./Ph.D. clinicians/researchers and 7 M.D./Ph.D. or Ph.D. researchers that work as a large collaborative group with the common research themes of lung development, and lung injury. The group uses state of the art technology to explore questions in lung biology that range from molecular genetics and transgenic models to lung physiology. The lung research is supplemented by clinical research supported by the NICHD Neonatal Research Network. The goal for this training grant is to support only research training for Neonatologists who have the potential and motivation to become successful research oriented academic neonatologists.
