DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the Baylor Research Training Program for Pediatricians is to provide didactic structure and mentoring for post-doctoral M.D. fellows, who are committed to academic careers in pediatric subspecialties. The department has three highly focused T-32 training grants supporting only 13% of such postdoctoral fellows in the department. Our program's strength ties in the availability of the resources of one of the largest Departments of Pediatrics in the country', which include: 1) well established, peer review funded, pediatric investigators with a track record of mentoring; 2) excellent research resources, programs and facilities; and 3) a large number of fellowship programs that attract high quality young pediatricians. The proposed training plan will: 1) facilitate the development of their individual didactic and research training programs; 2) provide stipends to protect time for their individual research and educational efforts; 3) provide educational support in the area of study design, statistics, molecular biology, and/or other cognates; 4) assure an appropriate and successful Mentor match; and 5) make available the resources of the Department and Baylor College of Medicine to facilitate their cost effective research activities. The proposed program has 45 clinical and basic science investigators as mentors. All mentors have active research programs and vast majority of them have expertise in mentoring physician-scientists. Scholars will develop a 5-page research proposal with their mentors as part of their applications to the program. All applications will be reviewed by an Executive Advisory Committee selected from the overall mentoring faculty. The educational support is derived from the clinical and basic science curricula at Baylor, together with divisional and departmental seminar series. Over the last 10 yrs we have successfully used this approach to mentored research training for the academic development of pediatric faculty in the Children's Health Research Center grant, which has fostered the career development of 32 physician investigators, of which 80% remain in academic medicine, 21 of which are current members of the Baylor faculty. We believe this success reflects the departmental and institutional commitment to the training of young physician scientists. The funding of this program will help train academic pediatricians who will improve the health and care of the next generation of children in our country and throughout the world.

描述(由申请人提供)：贝勒儿科医生研究培训计划的目标是为致力于儿科亚专业学术生涯的博士后医学博士研究生提供教学结构和指导。该部门有三个高度集中的T-32培训补助金，仅支持该部门13%的此类博士后研究员。我们计划的优势在于拥有全国最大的儿科之一的资源，其中包括：1)成熟的、同行评议资助的、有指导记录的儿科研究人员；2)优秀的研究资源、计划和设施；以及3)大量吸引高素质年轻儿科医生的奖学金计划。拟议的培训计划将：1)促进他们个人教学和研究培训计划的发展；2)提供津贴，以保护他们个人研究和教育努力的时间；3)在研究设计、统计学、分子生物学和/或其他同类领域提供教育支持；4)确保适当和成功的导师匹配；以及5)提供系和贝勒医学院的资源，以促进他们具有成本效益的研究活动。拟议的项目有45名临床和基础科学研究人员作为导师。所有的导师都有积极的研究计划，他们中的绝大多数人都有指导内科科学家的专业知识。学者们将与他们的导师一起开发一份5页的研究计划书，作为他们申请该项目的一部分。所有申请都将由从全体指导教师中挑选出来的执行咨询委员会进行审查。教育支持来自贝勒的临床和基础科学课程，以及科室和科室系列研讨会。在过去的10年里，我们成功地使用这种方法在儿童健康研究中心拨款中指导儿科教师的学术发展研究培训，这促进了32名内科研究人员的职业发展，其中80%仍在学术医学领域，其中21人是贝勒学院的现任成员。我们认为，这一成功反映了部门和机构对年轻内科科学家培训的承诺。该项目的资金将帮助培训学术儿科医生，他们将改善我国和世界各地下一代儿童的健康和护理。
