DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): To reduce the enormous public and personal costs of diabetes and endocrine disorders, there must be a new generation of clinical investigators, rigorously trained in clinical research and epidemiology of diabetes and endocrine disorders. We propose a training program that begins with a full year of course work followed by a mentored research experience. The overall goal is to train fellows interested in diabetes and endocrinology in the disciplines of clinical research and epidemiology, preparing them for a productive academic career. At Johns Hopkins, the Division of Endocrinology and Metabolism and the Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology and Clinical Research, have faculty with broad professional expertise and experience in mentoring. While there is a steady flow of outstanding fellows in endocrinology and at the Welch Center, there is no support for the training envisioned by this proposal. We propose to admit two post-doctoral and one pre-doctoral fellows per year, to a steady state of 4 post-doc and 3 pre-doctoral positions. Physician fellows will be drawn from Endocrinology and Internal Medicine. Having completed their first, clinical year, they will start the training grant program with an intensive didactic year, usually as part of the established Graduate Training Program in Clinical Investigation, a K-30 supported program offering a masters or Ph.D. degree. Pre-doctoral trainees will start with their intensive doctoral degree course work. All fellows will then join one of 17 faculty mentors to pursue original research, while continuing 3 course credits per term of didactic course work. They will be part of an active intellectual research environment that includes a full set of relevant conferences, journal clubs, and visiting lecturers. Fellows will have the benefit of outstanding clinical research facilities available at Johns Hopkins including the General Clinical Research Center, other clinical research facilities, state-of-the-art computing and bioinformatics facilities, and the broad resources of the School of Public Health. Implementation of the training program will be overseen by an Executive Committee that chooses fellows to join the program, and a Mentorship Committee that oversees the mentor-mentee assignments. The faculty, facilities, and traditions of Johns Hopkins University are prepared to proceed with this much needed mission.

描述(由申请人提供)： 为了减少糖尿病和内分泌失调对公众和个人造成的巨大代价，必须有新一代临床研究人员，他们在糖尿病和内分泌失调的临床研究和流行病学方面接受过严格的培训。我们提出了一项培训计划，首先是一年的课程工作，然后是有指导的研究经验。总体目标是在临床研究和流行病学领域培训对糖尿病和内分泌学感兴趣的研究员，为他们的学术生涯做好准备。在约翰·霍普金斯大学，内分泌学和新陈代谢学部以及韦尔奇预防、流行病学和临床研究中心都有在指导方面拥有广泛专业知识和经验的教员。虽然在内分泌学和韦尔奇中心有一批优秀的研究员源源不断地涌现，但这项提议所设想的培训没有得到支持。我们建议每年招收2名博士后和1名博士后研究员，稳定在4个博士后和3个博士后职位。来自内分泌学和内科的医师研究员将被挑选出来。在完成第一个临床学年后，他们将以密集的授课年开始培训资助计划，通常是作为既定的临床调查研究生培训计划的一部分，这是一项由K-30资助的计划，提供硕士或博士学位。博士前实习生将从他们密集的博士学位课程工作开始。然后，所有研究员将加入17名教师导师中的一人从事原创研究，同时继续每学期3个课程学分的教学课程工作。他们将成为活跃的智力研究环境的一部分，包括一整套相关的会议、期刊俱乐部和客座讲师。获奖者将受益于约翰霍普金斯大学出色的临床研究设施，包括普通临床研究中心、其他临床研究设施、最先进的计算机和生物信息学设施，以及公共卫生学院的广泛资源。培训计划的实施将由一个选择研究员加入该计划的执行委员会和一个监督导师-学员任务的导师委员会监督。约翰·霍普金斯大学的教员、设施和传统已经准备好继续执行这项亟需的任务。
