DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Respiratory diseases remain a major cause of death and disability. Training in respiratory biology will prepare young investigators for careers directed at eliminating these major causes of morbidity and mortality. This program provides intensive research training for physicians or Ph.D.s to prepare for careers as independent investigators. Over the past funding period, we have utilized the strong combined research training expertise of the Mayo Clinic Rochester, MN and Mayo Clinic Scottsdale, AZ. Dr. Andrew H. Limper, director of the Thoracic Research Unit at Mayo Rochester, will continue as program director, while Dr. James J. Lee, director of asthma research and the transgenic program at the Johnson Research Center at Mayo Scottsdale, will act as co-director. This training program arises as a natural extension of our integrated research and administrative structure. Well-developed and competitively funded research teams are present at both campuses. Faculty members hold academic appointments in the Departments of Medicine, Biochemistry/Molecular Biology, Immunology, and Physiology. Utilizing our satellite-based communication, major conferences are teleconferenced between campuses. In addition, faculty routinely travel between sites for educational, scientific, and administrative duties. Immediate communication occurs via our integrated paging and telephone systems, video links, and electronic mail. Dr. Limper and the Mayo Graduate School have considerable experience in supervising trainees as they train between Mayo sites. We propose 18 senior and 6 associate faculty members, with the research faculty being divided between the sites. Available research topics range from the biology of host defense and pulmonary infections, asthma and obstructive lung disease, extracellular matrix and lung fibrosis, the molecular basis of cystic fibrosis, transgenic animal models of disease, lung inflammation, cellular biomechanics, and protease and lipid biochemistry. We propose outstanding research opportunities for four trainee positions per year. Qualified candidates with M.D., Ph.D., or M.D., Ph.D. backgrounds are considered. We have already had significant success in the recruitment of under-represented minorities and will continue these efforts. Candidate are committed to a minimum of two, but preferably three or more years of full time research. A wide range of didactic courses is available to complement the intensive laboratory experience.

描述（由申请人提供）： 呼吸道疾病仍然是死亡和残疾的主要原因。 呼吸生物学的培训将使年轻研究人员为消除这些主要原因和死亡率的主要原因做好准备。 该计划为医生或博士学位提供深入的研究培训，以准备作为独立研究人员的职业。 在过去的资金期间，我们利用了明尼苏达州梅奥诊所罗切斯特和亚利桑那州梅奥诊所的梅奥诊所的强大研究培训专业知识。 梅奥·罗切斯特（Mayo Rochester）胸部研究部门主任安德鲁·H·林珀（Andrew H. 该培训计划是我们综合研究和行政结构的自然扩展。 两个校园都有发达和竞争力的研究团队。 教职员工在医学，生物化学/分子生物学，免疫学和生理学部门任职。利用我们的基于卫星的交流，校园之间进行了主要会议。 此外，教职员工经常在站点之间旅行，以进行教育，科学和行政职责。 立即通信通过我们的集成分页和电话系统，视频链接和电子邮件进行。 Limper博士和Mayo研究生院在梅奥网站之间训练时，在监督学员方面具有丰富的经验。 我们建议18名高级和6名副教授，研究教师在这些地点之间进行了分配。 可用的研究主题范围从宿主防御和肺部感染的生物学，哮喘和阻塞性肺部疾病，细胞外基质和肺纤维化，囊性纤维化的分子基础，疾病的转基因动物模型，肺部炎症，细胞生物力学以及蛋白酶和蛋白酶和脂质生物化学。 我们提出了每年四个学员职位的出色研究机会。 合格的候选人，博士学位，博士学位，博士学位考虑背景。 我们已经在招募人数不足的少数民族方面取得了巨大的成功，并将继续这些努力。候选人至少将候选人进行两次，但最好是三年以上的全日制研究。 可以使用各种教学课程来补充密集的实验室经验。
