DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the Baylor Pediatric Diabetes Research Training Program is to provide didactic structure and mentoring for post-doctoral M.D. fellows, who are committed to academic careers in pediatric diabetes research and care. Our program's strength lies in the availability of the resources of one of the largest Departments of Pediatrics in the country, which include: 1) well established, peer review funded, investigators with broad disciplinary expertise and a track record of mentoring; 2) excellent research resources, programs and facilities; and 3) new leadership in the section of pediatric endocrinology and metabolism; 4) range of multi-ethnic patient population. In addition, Baylor College of Medicine provides a rich environment of basic and clinical expertise, which will provide unique training opportunities for pediatric diabetologists. The proposed training plan will: 1) facilitate the development of their individual didactic and research training programs; 2) provide stipends to protect time for their individual research and educational efforts; 3) provide educational support in the area of study design, statistics, molecular biology, and/or other cognates; 4) assure an appropriate and successful Mentor match; and 5) make available the resources of the Department and Baylor College of Medicine to facilitate their research activities in a cost effective fashion. The proposed program has 27 clinical and basic science investigators as potential mentors. All mentors have active research programs and vast majority of them have expertise in mentoring physician-scientists. During the first year of clinical training, Scholars will, with the help of the program director, develop a 2-5 page research proposal with their mentors as part of their applications to this program. All applications will be reviewed by an Executive Advisory Committee selected from the overall mentoring faculty. The educational support is derived from the clinical and basic science curricula at Baylor, together with divisional and departmental seminar series. Over the last 10 yrs we have successfully used this approach to mentored research training for the academic development of pediatric faculty in the Children's Health Research Center grant which has fostered the career development of 32 physician investigators, of which 80% remain in academic medicine, 21 of which are current members of the Baylor faculty. We believe this success reflects the departmental and institutional commitment to the training of young physician scientists. The funding of this program will help train a unique group of academic pediatricians who will improve the long-term health of the next generation of children with diabetes mellitus, through their research efforts

描述（由申请人提供）： 贝勒儿科糖尿病研究培训计划的目标是为博士后医学博士提供教学结构和指导。研究员，他们致力于儿科糖尿病研究和护理的学术事业。我们计划的优势在于全国最大的儿科部门之一的资源的可用性，其中包括：1）建立良好，同行评审资助，具有广泛学科专业知识和指导记录的研究人员; 2）优秀的研究资源，计划和设施;和3）儿科内分泌和代谢部分的新领导; 4）多民族患者人群的范围。此外，贝勒医学院提供丰富的基础和临床专业知识环境，这将为儿科糖尿病专家提供独特的培训机会。拟定的培训计划将：1）促进其个人教学和研究培训计划的发展; 2）提供津贴，以保护其个人研究和教育工作的时间; 3）在研究设计、统计学、分子生物学和/或其他同源领域提供教育支持; 4）确保适当和成功的导师匹配;和5）提供部门和贝勒医学院的资源，以促进他们的研究活动在一个具有成本效益的方式。该计划有27名临床和基础科学研究人员作为潜在的导师。所有导师都有积极的研究项目，其中绝大多数都有指导医生科学家的专业知识。在临床培训的第一年，学者将在项目主任的帮助下，与导师一起制定一份2-5页的研究计划，作为他们申请该项目的一部分。所有申请将由一个执行咨询委员会审查，该委员会从整个指导教师中选出。教育支持来自贝勒的临床和基础科学课程，以及部门和部门的系列研讨会。在过去的10年里，我们成功地使用这种方法来指导儿童健康研究中心资助的儿科教师的学术发展的研究培训，促进了32名医生调查员的职业发展，其中80%留在学术医学，其中21人是贝勒教师的现任成员。我们认为，这一成功反映了部门和机构致力于培养年轻的医生科学家。该计划的资金将有助于培养一批独特的学术儿科医生，他们将通过研究工作改善下一代糖尿病儿童的长期健康状况。
