Description (provided by applicant): The Duke Pediatric Cardiology Fellowship Training Program is designed to develop pediatric fellows into well-trained investigators who will be future leaders. Few Pediatric Cardiologists are trained to conduct research, and fewer Pediatric Fellowship graduates have long-term successful research careers. Almost 1% of live-born infants have a heart defect, congenital heart disease is a leading cause of death during the first year of life, and many survivors have residual heart conditions. Training Pediatric Cardiology fellows is needed. We have two tracks: a basic research track and a clinical/health services track. Our basic research track is supported by successful investigators whose laboratories research focuses on developmental, cardiac, vascular, and cell biology. Fellows have an intensive hands-on experience in the laboratory and take didactic courses that supplement this training. Our clinical/health services research component is strongly supported by the Duke Clinical Research Training Program, with our fellows enrolling in the Master's Program in Health Sciences and Clinical Research and graduate programs in Biostatistics and Epidemiology. The rich interdisciplinary environment is supported by all the fellows' participating in three monthly seminar series. The Program leadership are supported by an Internal Advisory Board made up of Duke University Medical Center Faculty who are T32 Principal Investigators. They assess the trainees' progress and the preceptor's mentoring. Recruitment of trainees from underrepresented minorities is a program focus. An External Advisory Board, made up of internationally recognized successful investigators, who are NHLBI-funded T32 Principal Investigators, reviews the program, advises as to the overall program direction and helps ensure successful transition of the trainees into academic careers. A strong mentored research experience is provided. Recruitment of underrepresented minorities is a focus. Trainees take the multi-lecture course "Responsible Conduct of Research" and a course in grant and manuscript writing. They develop their communication skills by giving seminars and other presentations. The preceptors and trainees formally assess each other every six months. The trainees are provided career counseling by their mentors, the Internal Advisory Board, and the Program Director. Our Program's goal is to develop fellows who will have the experience and capabilities needed for a successful long term research career.

描述（由申请人提供）：杜克儿科心脏病学奖学金培训计划旨在将儿科研究员培养成训练有素的研究人员，他们将成为未来的领导者。很少有儿科心脏病专家接受过进行研究的培训，更少的儿科奖学金毕业生有长期成功的研究生涯。几乎1%的活产婴儿有心脏缺陷，先天性心脏病是生命第一年死亡的主要原因，许多幸存者有残余心脏病。需要培训儿科心脏病学研究员。我们有两个轨道：基础研究轨道和临床/卫生服务轨道。我们的基础研究轨道是由成功的研究人员，其实验室的研究重点是发育，心脏，血管和细胞生物学的支持。研究员在实验室中有密集的实践经验，并参加补充这种培训的教学课程。我们的临床/健康服务研究部分得到了杜克临床研究培训计划的大力支持，我们的研究员参加了健康科学和临床研究硕士课程以及生物统计学和流行病学研究生课程。丰富的跨学科环境得到了所有研究员参加三个月一次的系列研讨会的支持。该计划的领导层得到了由杜克大学医学中心教师组成的内部咨询委员会的支持，他们是T32的主要研究者。他们评估学员的进步和导师的指导。从代表性不足的少数民族中招募受训人员是方案的重点。外部咨询委员会由国际公认的成功研究者组成，他们是NHLBI资助的T32首席研究员，负责审查该计划，就整体计划方向提供建议，并帮助确保学员成功过渡到学术生涯。提供了强大的指导研究经验。征聘代表性不足的少数民族是一个重点。受训人员参加多讲座课程“负责任的研究行为”和赠款和手稿写作课程。他们通过举办研讨会和其他演讲来发展他们的沟通技巧。导师和学员每六个月正式互相评估一次。学员由导师、内部咨询委员会和项目主任提供职业咨询。我们的计划的目标是培养研究员谁将有一个成功的长期研究生涯所需的经验和能力。
