DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This amended (A2) application is for a competitive renewal of a Training Grant in Developmental and Perinatal Endocrinology at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine and Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center that was originally funded in 1993. Its purpose is to train M.D.s and Ph.D.s for careers as independent investigators in academic medicine. The program will provide funding for a total of three postdoctoral fellows and three Ph.D. candidates within the University of Cincinnati Graduate Program. The faculty advisors consist of twenty-four established investigators with major interests in developmental and perinatal endocrinology from three clinical and six basic science departments and the College of Pharmacy. The research themes include the regulation of trophoblast differentiation and decidualization, the role of growth factors in mammalian development, the molecular biology of the growth hormone, prolactin and placental lactogen gene family during development, and mechanisms of hormone action. The faculty share research interests and have a history of collaboration. Each has NIH funding for his/her research and has an established record as a mentor for graduate and postdoctoral students. The Program will include an administrative core consisting of the Program Director, an Executive Committee and External and Internal Advisory Boards. Predoctoral trainees will obtain their Ph.D. degrees in the Department of Cell Biology, Neurobiology and Anatomy, the Department of Molecular and Cellular Physiology, the Department of Molecular Genetics, Biochemistry and Microbiology, the Departments of Environmental Health Sciences, Pathology and Pharmacy and the Interdisciplinary Programs in Molecular and Developmental Biology and Neurosciences of the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine. Postdoctoral trainees must have the M.D. or Ph.D. degree, or both. Special attention will be given to the training of minorities and to M.D./Ph.D. candidates. Training will include course work in molecular and developmental biology, epidemiology and biostatistics, a seminar series, an annual review of the progress of candidates, and a yearly symposium designed for presentation of studies generated by the graduate and postdoctoral students within the program. Each trainee will also be required to take a course focused on ethical issues in the conduct of science. The progress of each trainee will be reviewed annually by the Executive Committee. It is anticipated that the Training Program will continue to be successful in preparing trainees for research careers in an important area of medicine.

描述（由申请人提供）：此修订（A2）申请是辛辛那提大学医学院和辛辛那提儿童医院医疗中心的发育和围产期内分泌学培训补助金的竞争性续期，该补助金最初于1993年资助。它的目的是培养医学博士和博士作为学术医学的独立调查员。该计划将为三名博士后研究员和三名博士提供资金。辛辛那提大学研究生课程的候选人。教师顾问由24名既定的研究人员组成，他们对来自三个临床和六个基础科学部门以及药学院的发育和围产期内分泌学感兴趣。研究主题包括滋养层分化和蜕膜化的调节，生长因子在哺乳动物发育中的作用，生长激素、催乳素和胎盘催乳素基因家族在发育过程中的分子生物学，以及激素作用机制。教师分享研究兴趣，并有合作的历史。每个人都有NIH资助他/她的研究，并有一个既定的记录，作为研究生和博士后学生的导师。该方案将包括一个由方案主任、执行委员会以及外部和内部咨询委员会组成的行政核心。博士预科生将获得博士学位。在辛辛那提大学医学院的细胞生物学、神经生物学和解剖学系、分子和细胞生理学系、分子遗传学、生物化学和微生物学系、环境健康科学系、病理学和药学系以及分子和发育生物学和神经科学跨学科课程中获得了10个学位。博士后必须具有医学博士学位。或博士度，或两者。将特别注意少数民族的培训和医学博士/博士候选人培训将包括分子和发育生物学，流行病学和生物统计学，系列研讨会，候选人进展的年度审查，以及旨在介绍该计划内研究生和博士后学生产生的研究的年度研讨会。每个受训人员还将被要求参加一门侧重于科学行为中的伦理问题的课程。执行委员会将每年检讨每名受训人员的进度。预计培训方案将继续成功地为学员在医学的一个重要领域的研究事业做好准备。
