This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The CPN applies the financial and material resources to the development of our most crucial resource ¿ the next generation of neuroscientists. Continued advancement of neuroscience research requires the nurturing, education and training of individuals along the career path to independent research. To accomplish this, the CPN promotes a formal one-on-one mentorship program along with numerous educational opportunities. The CPN is committed to maintaining a strong link between basic research, clinical research, and the clinical setting, the so-called ¿bench-to-bedside¿ link. Junior CPN investigators are paired with both a basic science and a clinical mentor, rounding the mentorship. Basic science mentors provide mentees with the theoretical and practical scientific skills that will allow them to compete successfully for independent funding, while clinical mentors ensure that mentee research maintains clinical relevance as it evolves. With strong mentoring relationships in place, the CPN further supports early career faculty researchers in developing vital skills, including oral and written presentations of research findings, grant writing and post-award grants management. The CPN supports travel to Regional Seminars on Program Funding and Grants Administration sponsored by the National Institutes of Health. Seminars by nationally- and internationally-recognized scholars with expertise in the areas of psychiatric neuroscience emphasized by junior investigator research, as well as scientists with expertise in other areas that are evolving in psychiatric neuroscience, are sponsored as part of the CPN¿s Distinguished Speakers Seminar Series. Integrity is fundamental to the work of scientists, and the CPN supports the belief that education is the key to promoting scientific integrity. The CPN addresses the teaching of ethical conduct in a systematic and rigorous manner through an on-going series of lectures on the Responsible Conduct of Scientific Research. The CPN further extends mentoring and educational opportunities to undergraduates through the Neuroscience Scholars Summer Program. This program, directed by Dr. Ian Paul, exposes a diverse group of undergraduates to the excitement and challenges of pursuing original neuroscience research in CPN laboratories. Scholars participate in research ranging from the neurobiological basis of substance abuse behavior to the molecular mechanisms regulating synaptic activity to the neuroanatomical abnormalities attending psychiatric disease. Mentoring and training offered through the Neuroscience Scholars Summer Program gives undergraduates the technical knowledge required to successfully complete their projects and instruction in modern research methods and in the uses of state-of-the-art research tools, thus providing an unparalleled opportunity to explore biomedical research as a career. Together, these mentoring and education efforts are proving to be an effective program of professional development. As an interactive system, mentoring and education benefits all ¿ the mentor, the mentee, the institution and future research initiatives. Mentors pass on their expertise, providing an environment conducive to developing productive, lifelong research careers in psychiatric neuros

这个子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心拨款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和调查员(PI)可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可能会出现在其他CRISE条目中。列出的机构是针对中心的，而不一定是针对调查员的机构。CPN将财政和物质资源用于开发我们最关键的资源--下一代神经科学家。神经科学研究的持续发展需要在通往独立研究的职业道路上对个人进行培养、教育和培训。为了实现这一目标，CPN促进了正式的一对一指导计划以及大量的教育机会。CPN致力于保持基础研究、临床研究和临床环境之间的紧密联系，即所谓的病床到床边联系。初级CPN调查人员与一名基础科学和一名临床导师配对，围绕导师关系进行。基础科学导师为学员提供理论和实践的科学技能，这将使他们能够成功地竞争独立资金，而临床导师则确保学员研究在其发展过程中保持临床相关性。通过建立牢固的指导关系，CPN进一步支持早期职业教师研究人员发展重要技能，包括口头和书面陈述研究结果、撰写补助金和奖励后补助金管理。CPN支持参加由国家卫生研究院赞助的关于方案资金和赠款管理的区域研讨会。由国内和国际公认的具有初级研究员研究强调的精神神经科学领域专门知识的学者以及具有精神神经科学其他领域专门知识的科学家举办的研讨会是作为CPN？S杰出发言者研讨会系列的一部分得到赞助的。诚信是科学家工作的基础，CPN支持这样一种信念，即教育是促进科学诚信的关键。CPN通过持续不断的关于负责任的科学研究行为的一系列讲座，系统和严格地讲授道德行为。CPN通过神经科学学者暑期计划进一步向本科生提供指导和教育机会。该项目由Ian Paul博士指导，让不同的本科生群体接触到在CPN实验室进行原创神经科学研究的兴奋和挑战。学者们参与的研究范围从物质滥用行为的神经生物学基础到调节突触活动的分子机制，再到与精神疾病有关的神经解剖异常。通过神经科学学者暑期计划提供的指导和培训为本科生提供了成功完成他们的项目所需的技术知识，并在现代研究方法和最先进研究工具的使用方面进行指导，从而提供了一个将生物医学研究作为职业探索的无与伦比的机会。总而言之，这些指导和教育努力被证明是一个有效的职业发展计划。作为一种互动系统，指导和教育使导师、被辅导者、机构和未来的研究计划都受益。导师传授他们的专业知识，为精神病学家提供一个有利于发展富有成效的终生研究事业的环境。
