DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competitive renewal for the post-doctoral multidisciplinary basic science Trauma and Inflammation Research Training Program at the Department of Surgery, The Alpert Medical School of Brown University. The Program's goal is to identify, recruit, and train the next generation of Trauma Scientists with particular emphasis on retaining MDs in academic trauma medicine careers. Formal training in research involves the acquisition of the technical, intellectual, philosophical and ethical habits and abilities of the scientist. Development of these traits in the trainees is the most important goal of the Program. Faculty from the Departments of Surgery; Engineering; Neurosurgery; Medicine; Molecular Microbiology and Immunology; Molecular Biology, Cell Biology and Biochemistry; and Pathology at Brown University, and their respective laboratories, afford trainees ideal opportunities to select areas for research. The Level 1 Trauma and Burn Centers at Rhode Island Hospital provide clinical correlates for basic research. The Program is led by a Director who is advised and assisted by an Executive Committee in the selection, guidance and evaluation of trainees. A Co-Director assists the Director in the day-to-day running of the program and stands-in in his absence. An Extramural Advisors Panel assures the excellence of the Training Program. Two trainees per year are selected nationally, among residents in any branch of surgery and recently graduated PhDs. Major emphasis is placed on recruiting candidates from under-represented minorities. The Training Program lasts two years. The curriculum includes required courses in Biostatistics, Responsible Conduct of Research, and Scientific Writing, as well as elective courses tailored to the specific needs of the trainees. A faculty mentor and an Advisory Group (modeled after a PhD thesis committee and including an experienced trauma care clinician) provide direction, support and supervision, as well as a clinical outlook on the research project. Trainees will have no clinical responsibilities during the training period. This comprehensive program provides the trainee with the technical and intellectual tools necessary to pursue an academic career in research areas related to trauma and inflammation. Relevance: Trauma continues to be a leading cause of death and disability in the USA. The Program aims to train surgical residents or recently graduated PhDs as the next generation of Trauma Scientists, capable of bringing advances in the understanding of the underlying mechanisms of "trauma disease" to the bedside and improve the outcome of trauma victims.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是布朗大学阿尔珀特医学院外科系博士后多学科基础科学创伤和炎症研究培训计划的竞争性更新。该计划的目标是确定，招聘和培训下一代创伤科学家，特别强调保留医学博士在学术创伤医学事业。研究方面的正规培训包括获得科学家的技术、智力、哲学和道德习惯和能力。培养受训者的这些特点是该方案最重要的目标。来自布朗大学外科学系、工程学系、神经外科学系、医学系、分子微生物学和免疫学系、分子生物学系、细胞生物学系和生物化学系以及病理学系的教师及其各自的实验室为学员提供了选择研究领域的理想机会。罗得岛医院的一级创伤和烧伤中心为基础研究提供临床相关资料。该方案由一名主任领导，执行委员会在挑选、指导和评估受训人员方面提供咨询和协助。一名联合主任协助主任进行方案的日常运作，并在主任缺席时代行职责。一个校外顾问小组保证了培训计划的卓越性。每年在全国范围内从外科任何分支的住院医师和最近毕业的博士中选出两名受训人员。主要重点是从代表性不足的少数群体中征聘候选人。培训计划为期两年。课程包括生物统计学，责任， 研究和科学写作的行为，以及根据学员的具体需求量身定制的选修课程。教师导师和咨询小组（仿照博士论文委员会，包括经验丰富的创伤护理临床医生）提供指导，支持和监督，以及对研究项目的临床展望。受训者在培训期间不承担临床责任。这个综合性的计划为学员提供了必要的技术和智力工具，以追求与创伤和炎症相关的研究领域的学术生涯。 相关性：创伤仍然是美国死亡和残疾的主要原因。该计划旨在培养外科住院医生或最近毕业的博士作为下一代创伤科学家，能够将对“创伤疾病”潜在机制的理解进步带到床边，并改善创伤受害者的结果。
