Training Grant in Hemostasis and Thrombosis

描述(由申请人提供)： 这项止血、血栓形成和血管生物学方面的培训拨款正在进入第一次竞争性更新。根据这项T32规定，这些研究领域将继续得到继续支持，在基础研究领域继续取得快速和令人兴奋的进展，并已开始看到这些发现被转化为各种心血管疾病患者的护理。我们相信，宾夕法尼亚大学和费城儿童医院的联合校区为这些领域的杰出研究人员提供了非常丰富的资源，这些研究人员来自多个不同的部门，甚至是机构。虽然这些调查人员中的一些人多年来一直保持高度互动，但我们认为，需要有一个凌驾于一切之上的上层建筑，将这些优秀但分散在两个校区的资源集中在一起，当五年前首次提交时，这笔培训补助金是这一努力的一部分。它的目的是让研究人员团结起来，为博士后和博士后研究员提供有凝聚力和吸引力的培训，以吸引和留住最优秀的受训人员进入这些努力领域。我们相信，通过这笔赠款，我们已经开始组织我们在校园的存在，就像宾夕法尼亚大学癌症中心一样。我们在心血管研究领域提供了几个有组织的课程和研讨会，再加上我们每年对所有学员进行的为期一天的外部评估，为第一波学员提供了有组织的指导经验，对止血、血栓形成和血管生物学领域有了更深入的了解，并提供了更好的职业发展机会。在接下来的5年里，我们打算在T32中进一步增加止血和血栓形成方面的教学培训部分，并继续追求和说服我们的受训人员留在心血管领域。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This training grant in hemostasis, thrombosis, and vascular biology is entering its first competitive renewal. These areas of research targeted for continued support under this T32 have continued to undergo rapid and exciting advances in the basic research arena and have begun to see the translation of these findings to the care of patients with various cardiovascular diseases. We believe that the combined University of Pennsylvania and Children's Hospital of Philadelphia campuses offer a very rich resource of outstanding researchers in these areas from multiple different Departments and even Institutions. While a number of these investigators have been highly interactive over the years, we believed that there was a need to have an over-riding super-structure to bring together these outstanding, but scattered resources on the two campuses, when first submitted five years ago, this training grant was part of that effort. It was aimed at drawing together investigators to provide cohesive and attractive training to pre- and post-doctoral fellows to attract and retain the best trainees into these fields of endeavors. We believe that through this grant we have begun to organize our presence on campus much like the PENN Cancer Center. We have provided several organized courses and seminars in our areas of cardiovascular research that together with our yearly daylong outside review of all our trainees have provided that first wave of trainees with an organized mentored experience, a deeper understanding of the areas of hemostasis, thrombosis, and vascular biology and better opportunities to advance their career. Over the coming 5 years, we intend to further increase the didactic training component in hemostasis and thrombosis in this T32, and to continue to pursue and persuade the best of our trainees to remain in the cardiovascular field.
