DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is an NIH T32 institutional training grant application for a new program at Baylor College of Medicine focused on the training of physicians as investigators in the discipline of immunology. Trainees will be recruited and selected from a large pool of outstanding applicants to the ACGME/RRC approved Baylor dual track training programs in allergy and immunology and in rheumatology. One trainee will be selected to enter the proposed T32 training program each year for three years of rigorous scientific training after they have completed one year of clinical training in allergy/immunology and rheumatology. Fifteen tenure track faculty have been carefully selected to serve as mentors, based on their excellence in research and teaching. Trainees will enroll in graduate school courses and Baylor's NIH K30 supported physician scientist course in clinical investigation to acquire a sound fund of knowledge in basic science and immunology, the principles of conducting clinical research, and the ethical conduct of research. Trainees will be comprehensively mentored in hypothesis driven research, preparation and publication of manuscripts, presentations at national meetings, preparation of grant applications, skills for teaching and mentoring, and academic career development. The mentors are selected from over 40 faculty within the new multidisciplinary Biology of Inflammation Center at Baylor, and provide a highly interactive critical mass of investigators with diverse trainees comprised of graduate students, medical students, Ph.D. postdocs and M.D. postdocs. Mentors provide training opportunities in cytokine structure and function, chemokine biology, adhesion molecules, signal transduction and termination of signaling, gene activation, metalloproteases and tissue remodeling, cellular immunology and immunoregulation, murine models of inflammation, and design of valid tools for epidemiology and clinical trial outcome analysis. The goal of the training program is to develop immunology physician scientists who will serve as the academic leaders of the future.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一个NIH T32机构培训补助金申请，用于贝勒医学院的一个新项目，重点是培训医生作为免疫学学科的研究者。学员将从大量优秀的申请者中招募和选择，参加ACGME/RRC批准的贝勒过敏和免疫学以及风湿病学双轨培训计划。在完成一年的过敏/免疫学和风湿病学临床培训后，每年将选出一名学员进入拟议的T32培训计划，接受为期三年的严格科学培训。十五个终身教职教师已被精心挑选，作为导师，根据他们在研究和教学的卓越。学员将参加研究生院课程和贝勒大学的NIH K30支持的临床研究医生科学家课程，以获得基础科学和免疫学知识的坚实基础，进行临床研究的原则以及研究的道德行为。受训人员将在假设驱动的研究，手稿的编写和出版，在国家会议上的演讲，赠款申请，教学和辅导技能的准备，以及学术生涯的发展进行全面的辅导。导师是从贝勒新的多学科炎症生物学中心的40多名教师中选出的，并为研究人员提供了高度互动的临界质量，包括研究生，医学生，博士生和其他研究人员。博士后和医学博士博士后导师提供细胞因子结构和功能，趋化因子生物学，粘附分子，信号转导和信号传导终止，基因激活，金属蛋白酶和组织重塑，细胞免疫学和免疫调节，炎症的小鼠模型，以及流行病学和临床试验结果分析的有效工具的设计的培训机会。该培训计划的目标是培养免疫学医生科学家，他们将成为未来的学术领导者。
