DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of our training program is to provide an intensive and interdisciplinary basic science research training for a period of two years for qualified individuals who are committed to pursuing a career in academic surgery. The purpose of this training program continues to be to provide these trainees with the basic science research skills necessary to become independent investigators in gastrointestinal (GI) endocrinology and surgical oncology when they assume faculty positions. The training faculty is composed of both basic scientists and academic surgeons. The training faculty is multidisciplinary; each faculty member is a recognized expert in his or her field, and each member has a long record of research productivity in the training of young investigators from the United States and abroad. The breadth and depth of the research techniques available in the laboratories of the various faculty members allow the trainees to become familiar with and adept at the application of state-of-the-art techniques, such as molecular biology, for the study of GI endocrinology. The trainees are required to spend two years in basic research, supervised by members of the training faculty. The diversity of the experience depends on the needs of the trainee and his or her research interests. In addition to an intensive research experience, the trainee also participates in formal courses in molecular biology, radiation safety and scientific ethics. Furthermore, the trainees participate in regularly scheduled departmental seminars and lectures which include a basic science lecture, departmental grand rounds and seminars presented by other departments. All of our trainees are required to complete requirements for a Master of Medical Science (MMS) degree. The surgical research training program in GI endocrinology at The University of Texas Medical Branch in Galveston has a greater than 30 year history of training surgeons in clinical and basic science investigation. We have demonstrated a strong record of research productivity and have provided a nurturing academic environment for these trainees. Our training program is specifically designed to focus on the research training of academic surgeons so that they will be prepared to become independent scientists and incorporate the new and state-of-the-art techniques learned during their training period into a successful academic career.

描述（由申请人提供）： 我们的培训计划的目标是为致力于追求学术外科事业的合格人员提供为期两年的密集和跨学科的基础科学研究培训。该培训计划的目的仍然是为这些受训人员提供必要的基本科学研究技能，使他们在担任教师职务时成为胃肠道（GI）内分泌学和外科肿瘤学的独立调查员。培训教师由基础科学家和学术外科医生组成。培训教师是多学科的;每个教师都是他或她的领域公认的专家，每个成员都有来自美国和国外的年轻调查人员的培训研究生产力的长期记录。在各教职员工的实验室提供的研究技术的广度和深度，使学员熟悉和熟练的应用国家的最先进的技术，如分子生物学，为GI内分泌学的研究。受训人员必须在培训教员的监督下进行两年的基础研究。经验的多样性取决于受训者的需求及其研究兴趣。除了密集的研究经验外，学员还参加分子生物学、辐射安全和科学道德方面的正式课程。此外，受训人员参加定期安排的部门研讨会和讲座，其中包括基础科学讲座，部门大圆桌会议和其他部门举办的研讨会。我们所有的学员都必须完成医学科学硕士（MMS）学位的要求。位于加尔维斯顿的德克萨斯大学医学分支的胃肠道内分泌学外科研究培训计划在临床和基础科学研究方面有超过30年的外科医生培训历史。我们已经证明了研究生产力的强劲记录，并为这些学员提供了一个培育学术环境。我们的培训计划是专门设计的，专注于学术外科医生的研究培训，使他们准备成为独立的科学家，并将他们在培训期间学到的新的和最先进的技术纳入成功的学术生涯。
