DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): For almost two decades, the W. M. Keck Center, which spans six biomedical institutions in the Greater Houston, Texas area, has trained pre- and postdoctoral fellows in biomedical informatics. Here we seek the renewal of one of our training programs (the NLMTP), which the National Library of Medicine has supported for fifteen years. When we began the NLMTP, we foresaw that computational biology would reshape medicine in important ways, and so emphasized this emerging discipline in the research experiences our trainees. Now that computational biology has a firmly established place in biomedicine, in the NLMTP renewal, we will emphasize clinical informatics more heavily and broaden our focus to include translational medicine, public health, biosecurity, applied nanotechnology and computational biomedical engineering. In the NLMTP, we will exploit the Keck Center's considerable strengths in simulation and imaging, statistical and computational biomedicine, clinical decision-making and deep expertise regarding biological structure and function. And we will employ processes for recruiting, selecting, monitoring and assessing trainees that have proved so successful in the Keck Center over the years.

描述（由申请人提供）： 近二十年来，W。M.凯克中心，其中跨越六个生物医学机构在大 休斯敦，得克萨斯州地区，培养了前和博士后研究员在生物医学信息学。在这里，我们寻求更新我们的一个培训计划（NLMTP），国家医学图书馆已经支持了十五年。当我们开始NLMTP时，我们预见到计算生物学将以重要的方式重塑医学，因此在我们的学员的研究经验中强调了这一新兴学科。现在，计算生物学在生物医学中已经牢固确立了地位，在NLMTP更新中，我们将更加强调临床信息学，并将我们的重点扩大到包括转化医学，公共卫生，生物安全，应用纳米技术和计算生物医学工程。在NLMTP中，我们将利用凯克中心在模拟和成像，统计和计算生物医学，临床决策以及有关生物结构和功能的深入专业知识方面的相当大的优势。我们将采用招聘、选拔、监督和评估受训人员的程序，这些程序多年来在凯克中心取得了巨大成功。
