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）：本培训计划的目标是准备年轻的研究人员在创伤科学领域进行临床适用和转化研究。该计划是基于烧伤和休克创伤研究所洛约拉大学在芝加哥，一个独特的，高度合作的研究环境，包括40多人，其中包括8名主要研究人员，4个额外的科学教师，6个临床专家在创伤和重症监护，8个博士后研究员（包括医学博士和博士），九名研究生，两名研究护士，五名研究技术人员和三名支持人员。该计划征求住院医师和博士后博士谁希望进入一个为期两年的密集的研究培训在创伤学领域的应用。该方案已经实施了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方案，每年任命两名新学员。征聘任职人数偏低的工作人员的具体计划 建立了一个包括地方、区域和国家努力在内的少数群体问题协调机制。学员可以从八名不同的首席调查员中自由选择， 创伤相关研究的导师，包括1）损伤后骨髓造血改变，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。培训计划强调每个受训者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、赠款写作培训以及统计和负责任地开展研究方面的教学课程。所有学员都必须提交书面研究建议、正式研究报告和半年一次的评估。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，博士受训人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的查房。我们的长期目标是增加临床医生和博士的数量。科学家谁是合格的和积极的共同努力，以解决翻译创伤研究的基本问题。
