Southeastern Predoctl Training in Clinical Research(RMI)

东南部博士前培训计划旨在增加训练有素的临床研究人员的数量，他们将在未来临床研究的设计，实施和监督中发挥领导作用。我们的假设是，我们可以通过教授临床研究的原则和实践以及尖端技术在临床研究中的应用，培养个人成为严谨，高质量和积极主动的临床研究者。为了验证这一假设，我们将进行以下具体目标：1）从医学院，牙科医学院，护理学院，药学院，研究生院和健康护理学院的博士前学生，提供临床 研究培训，包括生物统计学，流行病学，临床试验，卫生服务研究，测量，招募和保留临床研究中的不同人群的基本技能的发展;以及尖端研究技术的应用; 1.a提供精心设计但灵活的课程，使学生能够最终在临床研究中独立发挥作用，1 B。在一个具有挑战性的互动环境中进行培训，该环境涉及学生，教职员工和导师，围绕最初的一周方向，密集的夏季课程，为期一年的MS学位“退出”， 或通过医学科学家培训计划或牙科科学家培训计划获得临床研究博士学位。培训活动包括除了教学课程，在临床研究的不同领域的轮换，每月科学研讨会系列和期刊俱乐部，由榜样访问，并在MUSC学生研究日介绍他们的研究，2）增加训练有素的临床研究人员的数量，他们将在未来承担多学科的设计，进行和监督的领导角色，协作临床研究对NIH和2a的使命至关重要。培训个人组装和领导开展临床研究所需的适当的多学科团队。除了核心课程外，我们还在以下前沿领域教育学员 技术;蛋白质组学、遗传学、DNA微阵列、病毒载体、64层CT扫描、功能性MRI、再生医学和斑马鱼技术。通过这些方法，我们将培养下一代严谨，未来思维的临床研究人员，他们将能够为改善国家的健康做出贡献。

The Southeastern Predoctoral Training Program is designed to increase the number of well-trained clinical researchers who will assume leadership roles in the design, conduct and oversight of future clinical investigations. Our hypothesis is that we can train individuals to become rigorous, high quality and proactive clinical investigators by teaching the principles and practice of clinical investigation and the application of cutting edge technology to clinical research. To test this hypothesis we will conduct the following specific aims: 1) For predoctoral students from College of Medicine, College of Dental Medicine, College of Nursing, College of Pharmacy, College of Graduate Studies, and College of Health Professions, provide clinical research training including development of basic skills in biostatistics, epidemiology, clinical trials, health services research, measurement, recruitment and retention of diverse populations in clinical research; and in the application of cutting edge research technologies; 1.a Offer a carefully designed yet flexible curriculum that enables students to ultimately function independently in clinical investigation, 1 b. Conduct the training in a challenging, interactive environment that involves students, faculty members and mentors structured around an initial one week orientation, an intensive summer session, a one year "pull-out" for an MS degree, or a PhD in clinical investigation via the Medical Scientist Training Program or Dental Scientist Training Program. Training activities include in addition to the didactic courses, rotations in the different domains of clinical research, a monthly science seminar series and journal club, visits by role models, and presentation of their research at the MUSC Student Research Day, 2) Increase the number of well-trained clinical researchers who will, in the future, assume leadership roles in the design, conduct, and oversight of multidisciplinary, collaborative clinical investigations critical to the mission of NIH and 2a. Train individuals to assemble and lead the appropriate multidisciplinary teams needed to carry out their clinical research. In addition to the core curriculum, we are educating the trainees in the following areas of cutting edge technology; proteomics, genetics, DNA microarrays, viral vectors, 64 slice CT scanning, functional MRI, regenerative medicine and zebra fish technology. With these approaches we will train the next generation of rigorous, futuristic thinking clinical investigators who will be able to contribute to improving the health of the nation.
