DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competitive renewal application for a NIH T32 institutional training grant for continuation of a new training program at Baylor College of Medicine focused on the training of physicians as investigators in the discipline of immunology. Initial funding has supported 6 trainees, of which 100% (3/3) of graduating trainees have taken tenure track academic positions, 83% are women, and 50% (3) of trainees are URM. Trainees are recruited and selected from a large pool of outstanding applicants to Baylor's ACGME/RRC approved training programs in allergy and immunology and in rheumatology. Continuation of four postdoctoral trainee positions annually is requested. Trainees are competitively selected for appointed to the T32 training program each year for two to three years of rigorous scientific training. Eighteen tenure track faculty have been carefully selected to serve as mentors, based on their excellence in research and teaching. Trainees enroll in graduate school courses and Baylor's NIH K30 supported physician scientist curriculum in clinical investigation to acquire a sound fund of knowledge in basic science and immunology, the principles of conducting clinical research, and the ethical conduct of research. Trainees will be comprehensively mentored in hypothesis driven research, preparation and publication of manuscripts, presentations at national meetings, preparation of grant proposals, skills for teaching and mentoring, and academic career development. The mentors are selected from over 40 faculty within Baylor's multidisciplinary Biology of Inflammation Center, NIH/NIAID Texas Medical Center Asthma and Allergic Diseases Cooperative Research Center, and HHMI Translational Biology and Molecular Medicine graduate program,, which provides a highly interactive critical mass of investigators with diverse trainees comprised of graduate students, medical students, PhD postdocs, MD postdocs, and MD/PhD postdocs. Mentors provide training opportunities in cytokine structure and function, chemokine biology, adhesion molecules, signal transduction and termination of signaling, gene activation, molecular genetics, tissue remodeling, cellular immunology and immunoregulation, murine models of inflammation, infection and immunity, the pathobiology of immune-mediated diseases, design of valid tools for epidemiology, and clinical trial outcome analysis. The goal of this training program is to continue to develop immunology physician-scientists who will serve as future academic leaders.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是NIH T32机构培训补助金的竞争性续期申请，用于继续贝勒医学院的新培训计划，重点是培训医生作为免疫学学科的研究者。初始资金支持了6名学员，其中100%（3/3）的毕业学员获得终身教职，83%为妇女，50%（3）的学员为城市资源管理员。受训人员是从大量优秀的申请人中招募和选择的，参加贝勒大学ACGME/RRC批准的过敏和免疫学以及风湿病学培训课程。要求每年继续四个博士后实习生职位。学员每年都经过竞争性选拔，被任命为T32培训计划的成员，接受为期两到三年的严格科学培训。18个终身教职教师已被精心挑选作为导师，根据他们在研究和教学的卓越。学员参加研究生院课程和贝勒的NIH K30支持的临床研究医生科学家课程，以获得基础科学和免疫学知识的坚实基础，进行临床研究的原则，以及研究的道德行为。学员将在假设驱动的研究，手稿的准备和出版，在国家会议上的演讲，赠款提案的准备，教学和指导技能，以及学术职业发展方面得到全面的指导。导师选自贝勒多学科炎症生物学中心，NIH/NIAID德克萨斯医学中心哮喘和过敏性疾病合作研究中心以及HHMI转化生物学和分子医学研究生课程内的40多名教师，该课程提供了研究人员的高度互动临界质量，包括研究生，医学生，博士博士后，MD博士后和MD/博士博士后。导师提供细胞因子结构和功能，趋化因子生物学，粘附分子，信号转导和信号传导终止，基因活化，分子遗传学，组织重塑，细胞免疫学和免疫调节，炎症，感染和免疫的小鼠模型，免疫介导疾病的病理生物学，流行病学有效工具的设计和临床试验结果分析的培训机会。该培训计划的目标是继续培养免疫学医生科学家，他们将成为未来的学术领导者。
