DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the Baylor Pediatric Diabetes Research Training Program is to provide didactic structure and mentoring for M.D. fellows who are committed to academic careers in translational research in pediatric diabetes and related areas, which includes the spectrum of basic research to evidence based medicine. The renewal of this training grant will permit us to sustain the enormous progress that we have achieved over the past four years. Our program's strength lies in the availability of the resources of one of the largest Departments of Pediatrics in the country, which include well-established, peer review funded, pediatric investigators with broad disciplinary expertise and a track record of mentoring, and excellent research resources, programs and facilities. In addition, Baylor College of Medicine provides a rich environment of basic and clinical expertise that will provide unique training opportunities for pediatric diabetologists. The training plan will: 1) facilitate the development of the trainees' individual didactic and research training programs, 2) provide stipends to protect time for the program, 3) provide education in the areas of study design, statistics, molecular biology, and other cognates, 4) ensure an appropriate and successful mentor match, and 5) make available the resources of the College to facilitate trainees' research activities in a cost effective fashion. The proposed program has 23 active and successful clinical and basic science investigators as mentors. The Division's lectures, clinical care conference, and journal club, the Clinical Scientist Training Program, and the Pediatric Fellowship Training Program will provide the framework of the didactic core of the program. Over the last 20 years we have successfully used this approach to mentored research training for the pediatric faculty in the Child Health Research Center grant, which has fostered the career development of 52 physician investigators, 80% of whom remain in academic medicine. This success reflects the departmental and institutional commitment to the training of young physician scientists. The funding of this T32 will help sustain our fledgling training program for bright and motivated academic pediatricians who will improve the health and care of the current and next generation of children with diabetes mellitus.

描述(由申请人提供)： 贝勒儿科糖尿病研究培训计划的目标是为致力于儿科糖尿病及相关领域(包括基础研究到循证医学的基础研究)的学术生涯的医学博士研究员提供教学结构和指导。延长这笔培训补助金将使我们能够保持我们在过去四年中取得的巨大进展。我们的计划的优势在于可以获得全国最大的儿科部门之一的资源，其中包括成熟的同行评议资助的儿科调查人员，具有广泛的学科专业知识和指导记录的儿科调查人员，以及出色的研究资源、项目和设施。此外，贝勒医学院提供了丰富的基础和临床专业知识环境，将为儿科糖尿病医生提供独特的培训机会。培训计划将：1)促进学员个人教学和研究培训计划的发展；2)提供津贴以保障计划的时间；3)提供研究设计、统计学、分子生物学和其他同类领域的教育；4)确保适当和成功的导师匹配；以及5)提供学院的资源，以符合成本效益的方式促进学员的研究活动。拟议的计划有23名活跃和成功的临床和基础科学研究人员作为导师。该部门的讲座、临床护理会议和期刊俱乐部、临床科学家培训计划和儿科团契培训计划将为该计划的教学核心提供框架。在过去的20年里，我们成功地使用这种方法对儿童健康研究中心拨款中的儿科教师进行了指导研究培训，这促进了52名内科研究员的职业发展，其中80%仍在学术医学领域。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。这项T32项目的资金将有助于维持我们的初出茅庐的培训计划，培训对象是聪明且积极进取的儿科医生，他们将改善当前和下一代糖尿病儿童的健康和护理。
