DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary goal of this training program is to recruit and train promising young investigators with a commitment to trauma and inflammation research and to promote their development as clinicians / scientists capable of performing independent and productive research. A structured and integrated research training program in trauma-inflammation biology, currently used at the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB), will continue to be used. The Center for Surgical Research and the Department of Surgery including Trauma/Burns and Surgical Critical Care, Neurosurgery, Orthopedic Surgery, Chemoprevention Center, Islet Transplant Center, and Departments of Anesthesiology, Cell Biology, Medicine, Microbiology, Pathology, Neuroscience, Physiology and Biophysics at UAB continue to be in a unique position to commit to this program because of the presence of (1) an outstanding multidisciplinary basic and clinical faculty with impeccable credentials as researchers and mentors and (2) the existence of a Level I Trauma Center, Critical Care and Burn Centers and a hospital with 80 operating rooms. These features provide a focal point for the generation of hypothesis-driven research projects that can be developed in the basic science laboratories associated with this program, and also the potential benefit of translating laboratory research to the bedside. One of the residents who trained with us at UAB on another training grant (because he started before the T32 was awarded to us) will be doing a Clinical Trauma Fellowship for the years 2005-2006. After the completion of that fellowship, he will be joining the faculty at UAB and continue to perform epidemiological and prospective clinical studies, thus fulfilling one of the roadmaps that NIH has proposed for translational research. One of the major features of this training program is the inclusion of the basic science and the clinical coordinators as well as two mentors (a PhD and an MD) for each of the trainees. We hope to offer training opportunities to four candidates each year. In addition to MDs, the training will be offered to PhDs as well as DVMs. The trainees who have completed two or three years of clinical training prior to entering this program are expected to complete the clinical training subsequently. Moreover, some outstanding potential candidates who have already completed their clinical training may seek entrance to this training program. The overall direction of this Trauma-Inflammation Research Training program will be the responsibility of the Program Director and the Executive Committee. Candidates for the program will be recruited nationally and from various Departments of UAB School of Medicine. Applications from women and underrepresented minorities will be strongly solicited. We anticipate that after the completion of the two-year training, trainees will be better prepared with expertise and knowledge to pursue meaningful academic careers in trauma and inflammation disciplines.

描述（由申请人提供）：该培训计划的主要目标是招募和培训有前途的年轻研究人员，致力于创伤和炎症研究，并促进他们发展为能够进行独立和富有成效的研究的临床医生/科学家。目前在阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校（UAB）使用的创伤炎症生物学的结构化和综合研究培训计划将继续使用。外科研究中心和外科科室包括创伤/烧伤和外科重症监护、神经外科、骨科、化学预防中心、胰岛移植中心，以及麻醉科、细胞生物学、医学、微生物学、病理学、神经科学、UAB的生理学和生物物理学继续处于一个独特的位置，因为存在(1)优秀的多学科基础和临床教师，具有无可挑剔的研究人员和导师资格；(2)存在一级创伤中心，重症监护和烧伤中心以及拥有80个手术室的医院。这些特点为与该计划相关的基础科学实验室开发的假设驱动研究项目提供了一个焦点，也为将实验室研究转化为临床研究提供了潜在的好处。一位在UAB与我们一起接受另一项培训的住院医师（因为他是在T32授予我们之前开始的）将在2005-2006年进行临床创伤研究。完成该奖学金后，他将加入UAB的教职员工，继续进行流行病学和前瞻性临床研究，从而实现NIH提出的转化研究路线图之一。该培训计划的主要特点之一是包括基础科学和临床协调员，以及两位导师（博士和医学博士）为每个学员。我们希望每年为4名候选人提供培训机会。除医学博士外，还将为博士和医学博士提供培训。在进入本项目之前已完成2 - 3年临床培训的学员，预计将在随后完成临床培训。此外，一些已经完成临床培训的优秀潜在候选人可能会寻求进入这个培训计划。这个创伤炎症研究培训项目的总体方向将由项目主任和执行委员会负责。该项目的候选人将在全国范围内从UAB医学院的各个部门招募。将强烈征求妇女和代表性不足的少数民族的申请。我们期望在完成两年的培训后，学员将有更好的专业知识和知识准备在创伤和炎症学科追求有意义的学术生涯。
