DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary goal of this training program is to recruit and train promising young investigators with a commitment to trauma and inflammation research and to promote their development as clinicians / scientists capable of performing independent and productive research. A structured and integrated research training program in trauma-inflammation biology, currently used at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), will continue to be used. The Center for Surgical Research and the Department of Surgery including Trauma/Burns and Surgical Critical Care, Neurosurgery, Orthopedic Surgery, Chemoprevention Center, Islet Transplant Center, and Departments of Anesthesiology, Cell Biology, Medicine, Microbiology, Pathology, Neuroscience, Physiology and Biophysics at UAB continue to be in a unique position to commit to this program because of the presence of (1) an outstanding multidisciplinary basic and clinical faculty with impeccable credentials as researchers and mentors and (2) the existence of a Level I Trauma Center, Critical Care and Burn Centers and a hospital with 80 operating rooms. These features provide a focal point for the generation of hypothesis-driven research projects that can be developed in the basic science laboratories associated with this program, and also the potential benefit of translating laboratory research to the bedside. One of the residents who trained with us at UAB on another training grant (because he started before the T32 was awarded to us) will be doing a Clinical Trauma Fellowship for the years 2005-2006. After the completion of that fellowship, he will be joining the faculty at UAB and continue to perform epidemiological and prospective clinical studies, thus fulfilling one of the roadmaps that NIH has proposed for translational research. One of the major features of this training program is the inclusion of the basic science and the clinical coordinators as well as two mentors (a PhD and an MD) for each of the trainees. We hope to offer training opportunities to four candidates each year. In addition to MDs, the training will be offered to PhDs as well as DVMs. The trainees who have completed two or three years of clinical training prior to entering this program are expected to complete the clinical training subsequently. Moreover, some outstanding potential candidates who have already completed their clinical training may seek entrance to this training program. The overall direction of this Trauma-Inflammation Research Training program will be the responsibility of the Program Director and the Executive Committee. Candidates for the program will be recruited nationally and from various Departments of UAB School of Medicine. Applications from women and underrepresented minorities will be strongly solicited. We anticipate that after the completion of the two-year training, trainees will be better prepared with expertise and knowledge to pursue meaningful academic careers in trauma and inflammation disciplines.

描述(由申请者提供)：该培训计划的主要目标是招募和培训致力于创伤和炎症研究的有前途的年轻研究人员，并促进他们成为能够进行独立和富有成效的研究的临床医生/科学家。目前在阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校(UAB)使用的创伤-炎症生物学结构化和综合研究培训计划将继续使用。外科研究中心和外科包括创伤/烧伤和外科危重护理、神经外科、整形外科、化学预防中心、胰岛移植中心，以及UAB的麻醉学、细胞生物学、医学、微生物学、病理学、神经科学、生理学和生物物理系继续处于独特的地位，致力于这一计划，原因是(1)拥有出色的多学科基础和临床教员，拥有无可挑剔的研究人员和导师资格；(2)存在I级创伤中心、危重护理和烧伤中心以及一家拥有80个手术室的医院。这些特点为产生假设驱动的研究项目提供了焦点，这些项目可以在与该计划相关的基础科学实验室中开发，也为将实验室研究转化为床边的潜在好处提供了焦点。其中一位与我们一起在UAB接受另一项培训的住院医生(因为他在T32被授予我们之前就开始了)将在2005-2006年间接受临床创伤奖学金。在完成该奖学金后，他将加入UAB的教职，并继续进行流行病学和前瞻性临床研究，从而实现NIH提出的转化研究路线图之一。这一培训计划的主要特点之一是为每个学员配备基础科学和临床协调员以及两名导师(一名博士和一名医学博士)。我们希望每年为四名考生提供培训机会。除医学博士外，还将向博士和数字视频管理人员提供培训。学员在进入本项目之前已完成两年或三年的临床培训，预计将在随后完成临床培训。此外，一些已经完成临床培训的优秀潜在候选人可能会寻求进入这个培训计划。这一创伤-炎症研究培训计划的总体方向将由计划主任和执行委员会负责。该项目的候选人将在全国范围内以及从UAB医学院的不同部门招募。将强烈征求妇女和任职人数不足的少数群体的申请。我们预计，在完成为期两年的培训后，学员将更好地准备好拥有专业知识，以便在创伤和炎症学科中从事有意义的学术生涯。
