DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): In response to RFA-MH-05-011 (Course Development in the Neurobiology of Disease), we propose the development of an integrated Course in the Neurobiology of Disease at Oregon Health and Science University with the follow general goals: 1. To provide a foundation in the underlying mechanisms of neurological and psychiatric disease. Our premise is that a Theme-oriented approach to fundamental cellular, molecular as well as organismal mechanisms, rather than a disease-specific approach, is best able to engage students who are interested in basic aspects of brain function. We expect that we may not only recruit students into disease-oriented research, but we will make them "ready observers" so that possible disease-related issues in their own research are more quickly noted. 2. To provide a Toolbox of topical methods and issues in the neurobiology of disease. These toolbox sessions will also probe the links between basic mechanisms and behavioral manifestations of disease. 3. To provide a sampling of neuropsychiatric disorders that serve as training examples for the themes discussed in Objective 1. These examples will be based on the expertise of the faculty at OHSU, but will change with each course presentation so that the course remains vibrant and relevant to students, as well as other trainees and faculty 4. To provide hands-on exposure to clinical situations through live patient presentations, multimedia presentations, and visits to clinics, hospital wards, and other clinical settings. These Clinical Demonstrations will stress hands-on interactive experience so that graduate students experience first-hand the impact of neurological and psychiatric disease on brain function, and on the social fabric of the patient's life, their families and their community. Three NIH training grants qualify OHSU for this RFA: T32NS007466 (Gary Banker, PI; T32AA007468 (Christopher Cunningham, PI), and T32AT002688 (Barry Oken, PI). Three other training grants are currently funded and would qualify except that they will be subject to competitive renewal before September 2006.

描述（由申请人提供）： 针对RFA-MH-05-011（疾病神经生物学课程开发），我们建议在俄勒冈州健康与科学学院开发疾病神经生物学综合课程 大学的总体目标如下： 1.为神经和精神疾病的潜在机制提供基础。我们的前提是，以主题为导向的基本细胞，分子以及有机体机制的方法，而不是疾病特异性的方法，最能吸引对大脑功能的基本方面感兴趣的学生。我们预计，我们不仅可以招募学生参与以疾病为导向的研究，而且我们将使他们成为“准备好的观察者”，以便更快地注意到他们自己研究中可能存在的与疾病相关的问题。 2.提供疾病神经生物学中的一系列方法和问题。这些工具箱会议还将探讨疾病的基本机制和行为表现之间的联系。3.提供一个神经精神疾病的样本，作为目标1中讨论的主题的培训范例。这些例子将基于OHSU教师的专业知识，但会随着每次课程演示而变化，以便课程保持活力，与学生以及其他学员和教师相关 4.通过现场患者演示，多媒体演示以及对诊所，医院病房和其他临床环境的访问，提供实际接触临床情况。这些临床演示将强调动手互动体验，使研究生体验第一手的神经和精神疾病对大脑功能的影响，以及对患者生活，家庭和社区的社会结构。 三项NIH培训赠款使OHSU有资格参加本RFA：T32 NS 007466（加里银行家，PI; T32 AA 007468 （Christopher Cunningham，PI）和T32 AT 002688（巴里奥肯，PI）。另外三项培训赠款目前已获得供资，将符合资格，但须在2006年9月之前通过竞争续延。
