DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of this training program is to prepare young investigators to perform clinically applicable and translational research in the field of trauma science. The program is based at the Burn and Shock Trauma Institute of Loyola University in Chicago, a unique, highly collaborative research environment that includes more than 40 persons, including eight principal investigators, four additional scientific faculty, six clinical specialists in trauma and critical care, eight post-doctoral fellows (both MDs and Ph.D.s), nine graduate students, two research nurses, five research technicians, and three support staff. The program solicits applications from resident physicians and post-doctoral Ph.D.s who wish to enter a two-year period of intensive research training in the field of traumatology. The program, which has been in place for 31/2 years, currently accepts one new trainee each year, and a goal for the next cycle is to expand the program to include the appointment of two new trainees each year. A specific plan for the recruitment of underrepresented minorities, which includes local, regional, and national efforts has been established. Trainees are allowed to freely select from among eight different principal investigators who are each experienced mentors in trauma-related research, including 1) myelopoietic alterations after injury, 2) immune changes following burn and sepsis, 3) ethanol consumption and injury outcome, 4) neuroimmune regulation and trauma, and 5) wound healing and vascular repair. The training plan emphasizes a close working relationship between each trainee and their selected mentor, and includes laboratory research, seminars, journal clubs, training in grant writing, and didactic coursework in both statistics and the responsible conduct of research. Written research proposals, formal research presentations, and semi-annual evaluations are required of all trainees. Recognizing that many clinicians find it difficult to sustain independent research efforts, the program emphasizes collaborative linkages between basic scientists and clinicians. To develop an appreciation for clinical problems, Ph.D. trainees participate in selected clinical conferences and attend rounds on the Trauma and Burn Services during defined periods. Our long-term goal is to increase the number of clinicians and Ph.D. scientists who are qualified and motivated to work together to address fundamental questions in translational trauma research.

描述（由申请人提供）：该培训计划的目标是培养年轻研究人员在创伤科学领域进行临床适用和转化研究。该项目以芝加哥洛约拉大学烧伤和休克创伤研究所为基地，这是一个独特的、高度协作的研究环境，包括 40 多人，其中包括 8 名主要研究人员、4 名额外的科研人员、6 名创伤和重症监护临床专家、8 名博士后研究员（医学博士和博士）、9 名研究生、2 名研究护士、5 名研究技术人员和 3 名支持人员。该项目面向希望接受创伤学领域为期两年的强化研究培训的住院医师和博士后博士生提出申请。该计划已实施 31/2 年，目前每年接受一名新学员，下一个周期的目标是扩大该计划，每年任命两名新学员。招聘代表性不足的具体计划 少数群体，其中包括地方、区域和国家的努力已经建立。受训者可以从八位经验丰富的不同首席研究员中自由选择 创伤相关研究的导师，包括 1) 受伤后骨髓生成的改变，2) 烧伤和脓毒症后的免疫变化，3) 乙醇消耗和损伤结果，4) 神经免疫调节和创伤，以及 5) 伤口愈合和血管修复。培训计划强调每位学员与其选定的导师之间的密切工作关系，包括实验室研究、研讨会、期刊俱乐部、拨款写作培训以及统计学和负责任的研究行为方面的教学课程。所有学员都需要书面研究计划、正式研究报告和半年度评估。认识到许多临床医生发现很难维持独立的研究工作，该计划强调基础科学家和临床医生之间的合作联系。为了培养对临床问题的认识，博士。学员参加选定的临床会议，并在规定的时间内参加创伤和烧伤服务查房。我们的长期目标是增加临床医生和博士的数量。有资格并有动力共同努力解决转化创伤研究中的基本问题的科学家。
