DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Developmental Genetics Training Program at Tufts New England Medical Center (T-NEMC) and Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM) will provide physicians and predoctoral students with strong training in developmental genetics and the genetics of inherited diseases that can impact fetal, neonatal, and maternal health. The proposed faculty of 25 is drawn from T-NEMC and TUSM, and includes basic and translational researchers who hold M.D., Ph.D., and M.D./Ph.D. degrees. Three postdoctoral trainees will be recruited from the ACGME-accredited fellowship programs in Maternal-Fetal Medicine, Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine, and Medical Genetics based at T-NEMC, and three predoctoral trainees will be recruited from the Ph.D. programs in Genetics and Cellular and Molecular Physiology at the Sackler School of Graduate Biomedical Sciences at TUSM each year. Trainees will share a common training experience with rigorous exposure to bench and translational research. The program will promote interaction among pediatricians, medical geneticists, and obstetricians who treat patients and basic scientists who focus on genetic mechanisms of disease, thereby helping each group understand the impact of the other's work. Research training will be complemented by common courses on fundamentals of genetics, developmental genetics, ethics, and a course on the pathobiology of genetic and developmental diseases that is co-taught by basic scientists and physicians. Seminars, presentation workshops, hospital-based genetics rounds, and career counseling round out the program. By integrating basic and clinical faculty, the proposed trainees will acquire a deeper and richer knowledge of basic genetic mechanisms and contemporary clinical problems. The goal is to produce basic science faculty who can be productive in multidisciplinary, translational environments and clinician scientists who will be become independent, funded investigators addressing problems relevant to the health of mothers and children at risk for developmental disability or inherited disorders.

描述（由申请人提供）：塔夫茨新英格兰医学中心（T-NEMC）和塔夫茨大学医学院（TUSM）的发育遗传学培训计划（TUSM）将为医师和前学生提供强有力的发育遗传学培训，以及可能影响胎儿，新生儿和孕妇健康的遗传学遗传学。 拟议中的25位教职员工来自T-NEMC和TUSM，其中包括持有M.D.，Ph.D.和M.D./Ph.d的基本和翻译研究人员。学位。 将从T-NEMC的ACGME认可的奖学金计划，新生儿 - 拘留医学和医学遗传学中招募三名博士后学员，并将从博士学位招募三名。萨克勒研究生生物医学科学学院的遗传学以及细胞和分子生理学计划每年在TUSM。 学员将分享常见的培训经验，并严格接触板凳和翻译研究。 该计划将促进儿科医生，医学遗传学家和产科医生之间的互动，他们对待患者和基础科学家的疾病遗传机制，从而帮助每个群体了解对方工作的影响。 研究培训将由有关遗传学，发育遗传学，伦理学的基础知识以及有关遗传和发育疾病病理学的课程的共同课程，该课程由基础科学家和医生共同教授。 研讨会，演讲研讨会，基于医院的遗传学回合和职业咨询。 通过整合基本和临床教师，拟议的学员将获得对基本遗传机制和当代临床问题的更深入，更丰富的知识。 目的是生产基础科学教师，他们可以在多学科，转化环境和临床医生中富有成效，他们将成为独立的，资助的研究人员，以解决与有发育障碍或遗传疾病风险的母亲和儿童健康有关的问题。
