DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Rationale and Aims: This application proposes to establish a research-based training program for physician-scientists and Ph.D. scientists in Nephrology and Hypertension at the Oregon Health and Science University. The aim is to prepare individuals for successful academic/scientific careers, by providing intensive training in clinical or laboratory-based, hypothesis-driven, basic and disease- oriented research in an interactive environment. The premise of this program is that the need for skilled physician-investigators will increase over time as developments in molecular-based medicine have greater impact on the prevention, diagnosis, and treatment of hypertension and renal disease. Structure of the Training Program: This application seeks support for 3 postdoctoral trainees (2 in the first year). For M.D. scientists, research training will be preceded by a year of clinical training, with formal educational activities which teach the scientific basis of nephrology. The clinical year will be funded through institutional resources. During this year, candidates will be matched with appropriate mentors in preparation for the research period. Subsequent years (2 or more) will be devoted to laboratory or clinical research, funded by this grant. For Ph.D. scientists, the research training will be preceded by successful completion of a Ph.D. program in a basic science discipline. For all candidates, research activities will be supplemented by journal clubs, laboratory group meetings, and course work tailored to the trainee's individual scientific goals. Research Areas and Disciplines: This program will bring together investigators from the Divisions of Nephrology and Cardiology, Dept. of Medicine; the Division of Pediatric Nephrology, Dept. of Pediatrics; the Departments of Medical Informatics and Clinical Epidemiology, Biochemistry, and Physiology and Pharmacology; and other associated faculty. Investigators and trainees will be grouped into interrelated basic thematic interest areas: Hypertension, Chronic Kidney Disease, and Renal Physiology/Signaling. Within each group will be represented scientists with expertise in molecular biology, physiology, vascular biology, and related disciplines as appropriate. State-of-the-art laboratories at the Oregon Health and Science University and the Portland VA Medical Center will serve as training facilities for bench research. The clinical research projects have access to the OHSU GCRC, and the Human Investigations, and Masters in Clinical Research or Public Health programs. Relevance: This program will train investigators in the study of hypertension and chronic kidney disease, which are both major and growing public health problems in the U.S.

描述（由申请人提供）： 理由和目标：本申请提议为医师科学家和博士建立一个基于研究的培训计划。俄勒冈健康与科学大学肾脏病学和高血压领域的科学家。其目的是通过在交互式环境中提供基于临床或实验室、假设驱动、基础和疾病导向研究的强化培训，为个人成功的学术/科学事业做好准备。该计划的前提是，随着分子医学的发展对高血压和肾脏疾病的预防、诊断和治疗产生更大的影响，对熟练的医师研究人员的需求将随着时间的推移而增加。 培训计划的结构：本申请寻求对 3 名博士后培训生（第一年 2 名）的支持。对于医学博士科学家来说，研究培训之前将进行一年的临床培训，并进行正式的教育活动，教授肾病学的科学基础。临床年将通过机构资源提供资金。今年，将为候选人匹配合适的导师，为研究阶段做准备。随后的几年（两年或更长）将致力于实验室或临床研究，由这笔赠款资助。对于博士学位。科学家们，研究培训之前将成功完成博士学位。基础科学学科的计划。对于所有候选人来说，研究活动将辅之以期刊俱乐部、实验室小组会议以及根据受训者个人科学目标量身定制的课程。 研究领域和学科：该计划将汇集来自医学系肾脏病学和心脏病学部门的研究人员；儿科小儿肾脏病科；医学信息学和临床流行病学系、生物化学系、生理学和药理学系；和其他相关教师。研究人员和学员将被分为相互关联的基本主题兴趣领域：高血压、慢性肾脏病和肾脏生理学/信号传导。每个小组中都将有具有分子生物学、生理学、血管生物学和相关学科专业知识的科学家代表。俄勒冈健康与科学大学和波特兰退伍军人医疗中心最先进的实验室将作为实验室研究的培训设施。临床研究项目可以进入 OHSU GCRC、人体研究以及临床研究或公共卫生项目的硕士学位。 相关性：该计划将培训研究高血压和慢性肾病的研究人员，这两个疾病都是美国主要且日益严重的公共卫生问题。
