DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is an application to the NIBIB for a "broad-based" post-doctoral training program in cardiovascular imaging. Cardiovascular disease (CVD) remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the US, yet there are unmet needs in detecting and characterizing CVD and monitoring/guiding therapy. There are now a multitude of CV imaging technologies and disciplines involved in CV research, from the molecular to clinical level, requiring a future generation of CV imaging researchers to have multi-disciplinary training. Aim: Provide a multi-disciplinary training program in CV imaging by bringing together trainees and mentors from three core yet complementary areas - engineering, molecular imaging, and clinical imaging - for a structured two-year educational and research program. Trainees: Post-doctoral fellows with either MD or PhD backgrounds from all three of the above areas. Four per year for the first 2 years followed by 6 per year. The goal is to have a balance between MD and PhD trainees and to have them train together over the two-year period. Mentors: There are 16 Stanford faculty mentors who are engaged in technology-based imaging research, with half MD and half PhD and both School of Medicine and School of Engineering well represented, including CV Medicine, Radiology/Radiological Sciences, Electrical Engineering/Bioengineering, and the Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford (MIPS). Training Program: Research - two years of research in CV imaging under a primary mentor with a secondary mentor from a complementary discipline (e.g., MD to complement PhD). Education - Structured program consisting of courses and seminars in 1) Multi-Modality Cardiovascular Imaging, 2) Multi-Disciplinary Innovation, 3) Translational Cardiovascular Imaging, and 4) Research Career Development. Collaboration - A critical component is fostering collaborative multi-disciplnary research via team-based activities to develop ideas and solutions for unmet CV imaging needs. Environment: Stanford has a strong environment of innovation and technology-based cardiovascular imaging research, with NIH-funded programs and facilities in CV Medicine, Radiology/Lucas Center, Electrical Engineering, Bioengineering, and Molecular Imaging. Relevance: Heart disease remains the most serious medical problem in the US, with imaging a critical method to detect disease. However, imaging technology has become more sophisticated and complex. This program is designed to train a new generation of cardiovascular imaging researchers who can excel in this multi-disciplinary area by bringing together trainees from both engineering and medicine for advanced research and education

描述（由申请人提供）：这是尼比布的申请，用于心血管成像中的“基于广泛的”博士后培训计划。在美国，心血管疾病（CVD）仍然是发病率和死亡率的主要原因，但是在检测和表征CVD以及监测/指导疗法方面有未满足的需求。现在，从分子到临床水平，有许多CV成像技术和学科，需要将来的CV成像研究人员进行多学科培训。目的：通过将来自三个核心但互补领域的学员和导师（工程，分子成像和临床成像）汇总为结构化两年的教育和研究计划，提供了CV成像的多学科培训计划。受训者：上述三个领域的博士后研究员，具有MD或博士学位背景。每年最初的2年每年四个，其次是每年6个。目标是在MD和PhD学员之间保持平衡，并在两年期间让他们一起训练。 导师：有16位斯坦福大学教师导师从事基于技术的成像研究，其中一半的医学博士学位和一半的医学院和工程学院都很好地代表，包括简历医学，放射学/放射学科学，电气工程/生物学工程技术以及Stanford的分子成像计划（MIPS）。 培训计划：研究 - 在主要导师下的CV成像研究两年 辅助学科的次要导师（例如，医学博士学位至补充博士学位）。教育 - 由课程和研讨会组成的结构化计划1）多模式性心血管成像，2）多学科创新，3）转化心血管成像，以及4）研究职业发展。协作 - 关键组成部分是通过基于团队的活动来促进协作多学科研究，以开发未满足的简历成像需求的想法和解决方案。 环境：斯坦福大学拥有强大的创新和基于技术的心血管的环境 Imaging Research，由NIH资助的CV医学计划和设施，放射学/Lucas Center， 电工程，生物工程和分子成像。 相关性：心脏病仍然是美国最严重的医疗问题，并成像关键 检测疾病的方法。但是，成像技术变得更加复杂和复杂。该计划旨在培训新一代的心血管成像研究人员，他们可以通过将工程学和医学的学员聚集在该多学科领域中，以进行高级研究和教育
