University of Iowa Clinical and Translational Science Program (KL2)

目前的应用程序将在临床和转化研究教育中创造新的协同效应， 爱荷华州的大学汇集了一些成功的培训计划，包括研究生 转化生物医学项目，K30爱荷华州学者临床研究项目， Doris杜克临床研究奖学金和NCRR资助的K12项目。这些元素的结合 该计划将导致在临床和转化科学新的硕士和博士学位。除了 将临床研究培训纳入一个单一的保护伞下，该研究所将创造一个充满活力的知识分子 有成就的高级导师，初级教师和研究学者谁将进行跨学科， 前沿的转化研究 学位课程的学者将获得核心教学课程，包括五个调查领域的课程 (see下图2.1-1）。核心课程将包括流行病学，生物统计学，临床流行病学， 生物信息学、伦理学和研究生存技能。所有学者将完成核心课程和选修课 在特定的轨道上。然而，培训的特点将是指导研究实习指导， 是30位享誉全国的资深科学家之一导师将是核心或附属学院的教师， 在出版，资助，跨学科研究和培养年轻科学家方面有着良好的记录。

The current application will create new synergies in clinical and translational research education at The University of Iowa by bringing together a number of successful training programs, including the Graduate Program in Translational Biomedicine, the K30 Iowa Scholars in Clinical Investigation Program, the Doris Duke Clinical Research Fellowship, and a NCRR-funded K12 Program. The coalescence of these programs will result in new master's and PhD degrees in Clinical and Translational Science. In addition to bringing clinical research training under a single umbrella, the Institute will create a vibrant intellectual community of accomplished senior mentors, junior faculty, and research scholars who will undertake crossdisciplinary, cutting-edge translational research. Scholars in the degree programs will receive a core didactic curriculum with tracks in five areas of investigation (see Figure 2.1-1 below). The core curriculum will include epidemiology, biostatistics, clinical epidemiology, bioinformatics, ethics, and research survival skills. All scholars will complete the core curriculum and elective courses in a particular track. However, the hallmark of training will be a mentored research practicum directed by one of 30 senior scientists with national reputations. Mentors will be core or affiliated Institute faculty with strong track records in publication, funding, cross-disciplinary research, and nurturing young scientists.
