DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of California, Berkeley School of Optometry (UCBSO) seeks 5 years of support to train clinician-scientists in accordance with the guidelines of the Institutional Clinical Scientist Development Program (K12). The Berkeley Clinical Scientist Development Program will provide interdisciplinary training to enable well-established clinicians to carry out high-level, independent, clinical (patient-based) vision research. The University of California, Berkeley (UCB) K12 program will draw upon the rich resources of world-renowned departments and groups on the Berkeley campus, including Vision Science, Optometry, Public Health, Neuroscience, Infectious Disease, Bioengineering, Health and Medical Science, and Molecular & Cell Biology. The Berkeley K12 Program will feature two unique elements: (1) The recruitment of established clinicians who wish to make a career shift from clinical practice and teaching to one centered on the combination of teaching and independent, federally funded, patient-based vision research. (2) The multidisciplinary composition of a distinguished and diverse mentoring group composed of faculty with expertise in vision research, plus faculty whose primary expertise is not in vision, but who have extensive experience in clinical research. The program will provide the awardees with focused, cutting-edge didactic and mentored clinical research training tailored specifically to the individual's career plan. The curriculum will consist of course work, seminars, research in campus-wide laboratory facilities and clinics, and closely mentored supervision from a group of nationally recognized scientists and clinicians. Trainees will conduct research in one of seven clinical research areas: Retinal Disease, Corneal Disease, Strabismus, Amblyopia, Visual Processing, Low Vision & Blindness Rehabilitation, and Lens & Cataract - all of which are consistent with the Programs and Research Priorities of the National Eye Institute. The Berkeley program is designed so that upon completion, the trainees will be able to compete successfully for research resources and maintain a productive and independent career in patient-based vision research. Several strategies will be used to recruit established clinicians (e.g., OD, MD, DVM, DDS, or equivalent professional degree) whose clinical expertise is either within or outside the ophthalmic community. Four trainees would be recruited during the first year, and then one additional trainee admitted in each of the following four years (total admitted by 5th year = 8).

描述(由申请人提供)：加州大学伯克利分校视光学院(UCBSO)寻求5年的支持，以根据机构临床科学家发展计划(K12)的指导方针培训临床医生-科学家。伯克利临床科学家发展计划将提供跨学科培训，使知名临床医生能够进行高水平的、独立的、临床(以患者为基础)的视力研究。加州大学伯克利分校(UCB)K12项目将利用伯克利校区世界知名系和团体的丰富资源，包括视觉科学、验光、公共卫生、神经科学、传染病、生物工程、健康与医学科学和分子与细胞生物学。伯克利K12计划将有两个独特的要素：(1)招募希望将职业生涯从临床实践和教学转变为以教学和独立的、联邦资助的、以患者为基础的视力研究相结合的知名临床医生。(2)由具备视觉研究专业知识的教师，以及主要专长并非视觉专业，但在临床研究方面有丰富经验的教师组成的多学科辅导小组。该计划将为获奖者提供专门为个人职业规划量身定做的专注、尖端教学和指导的临床研究培训。课程将包括课程作业、研讨会、全校实验室设施和诊所的研究，以及由一群全国公认的科学家和临床医生密切指导的指导。学员将在七个临床研究领域之一进行研究：视网膜疾病、角膜疾病、斜视、弱视、视觉处理、低视力和失明康复以及晶状体和白内障-所有这些都与国家眼科研究所的计划和研究重点一致。伯克利项目旨在使学员在完成培训后，能够成功竞争研究资源，并在以患者为基础的视力研究中保持富有成效和独立的职业生涯。将使用几种战略来招聘临床专业知识在眼科社区内外的知名临床医生(例如，眼科、医学博士、DVM、DDS或同等专业学位)。第一年将招聘四名受训人员，然后在接下来的四年中每年增加一名受训人员(到第五年录取总数=8)。
