DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal represents a revised new submission for support of research training in cardiovascular science at the University of Minnesota. The aim of this proposal is to provide rigorous research training in cardiovascular science to prepare candidates for a career in academic cardiology or in cardiovascular investigation. Comprehensive curricula have been developed, including formal coursework as well as an intensive laboratory experience, to provide a firm foundation in the concepts and methodology of cardiovascular research. Special attention is paid to providing instruction in written and oral presentation of laboratory data, preparation of research grants, and development of mentoring skills. M.D. candidates who have completed their training in clinical cardiology in part or in full, as well as postdoctoral Ph.D. candidates will be accepted for a two to three year period of intensive research training. Training opportunities have been developed in four academic theme areas: (1) Cardiovascular applications of nuclear magnetic resonance; (2) molecular and integrative cardiovascular physiology; (3) stem cell biology, and (4) clinical and epidemiologic studies leading to a Master of Science degree in Clinical Research. These specific academic themes were chosen on the basis of four considerations: (1) they are areas of current research interest in which potential for great strides in knowledge and understanding exist; (2) they are areas in which there is demand for trained investigators and academic physicians; (3) they are areas in which there is sufficient depth of research expertise and facilities in laboratories with stable funding to provide a comprehensive training program at the University of Minnesota, and (4) they are areas in which interdisciplinary relationships already exist, thus ensuring trainee involvement in multidisciplinary collaborative research. The long-term goal of this program is to provide a continuing stream of basic cardiovascular scientists and physician investigators who are trained to use state-of-the-art technology to explore important research topics and successfully compete for grant funding.

描述（由申请人提供）： 该提案代表了一份修订后的新提交文件，旨在支持明尼苏达大学心血管科学的研究培训。 该提案的目的是提供严格的心血管科学研究培训，为候选人从事学术心脏病学或心血管研究职业做好准备。 我们开发了综合课程，包括正式课程和强化实验室经验，为心血管研究的概念和方法奠定坚实的基础。 特别注重提供实验室数据的书面和口头陈述、研究资助的准备以及指导技能的发展方面的指导。 医学博士候选人 已部分或全部完成临床心脏病学培训，以及博士后博士学位。候选人将接受为期两到三年的强化研究培训。 在四个学术主题领域开发了培训机会：（1）核磁共振的心血管应用； (2) 分子与综合心血管生理学； (3) 干细胞生物学，以及 (4) 临床和流行病学研究，获得临床研究理学硕士学位。 选择这些具体的学术主题是基于四个考虑：（1）它们是当前研究兴趣的领域，在知识和理解方面存在巨大进步的潜力； (2) 属于需要经过培训的研究者和学术医师的领域； (3) 这些领域拥有足够深度的研究专业知识和实验室设施，并拥有稳定的资金，可以在明尼苏达大学提供全面的培训计划；(4) 这些领域已经存在跨学科关系，从而确保学员参与多学科合作研究。 该计划的长期目标是提供源源不断的基础心血管科学家和医师研究人员，他们接受过培训，可以使用最先进的技术探索重要的研究课题并成功竞争拨款资助。
