DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal aims to develop and implement a residency training research track with the explicit goal of recruiting MD, PhD and medical graduates with a track record in conducting research. The program will provide early exposure to clinical research to stimulate interest in translational research among our basic science trainees. The program provides 7 months of exposure to translational research in both inpatient and outpatient clinical research settings, and 16 months of protected time for a mentored research project. These months will be augmented by intensive mentoring, overseen by the PIs, functioning as "meta-mentors," as well as preceptorship focused on ethics, statistics, research design and principles of translational research. All this will be attained while meeting ACGME requirements so that graduates will be board eligible. We anticipate that such a track, which we conceptualize as a 4 year program, will permit research track residents to "jump start" their research career while still residents, rendering them to better prepared for research fellowships and the K award process, ultimately leading to board eligibility, we offer our trainees a "no-risk" path towards enhanced likelihood of success as independent investigators. This approach is intended to remedy the current state of affairs wherein MD, PhDs often are faced with "re-starting" their research after a hiatus created by the need for clinical training. We anticipate educating physician-scientists to enhance the pipeline of translational investigators, a key goal of the NIMH.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案旨在开发和实施住院医师培训研究轨道，明确目标是招募MD，PhD和医学毕业生，并在进行研究方面有良好的记录。该计划将提供早期接触临床研究，以激发我们的基础科学学员对转化研究的兴趣。该计划提供了7个月的接触转化研究在住院和门诊临床研究设置，和16个月的保护时间为指导的研究项目。这几个月将通过密集的指导来加强，由PI监督，作为“元导师”，以及专注于伦理，统计，研究设计和转化研究原则的导师。所有这一切都将在满足ACGME要求的同时实现，以便毕业生将有资格获得董事会资格。我们预计，这样一个轨道，我们概念化为一个4年计划，将允许研究轨道居民“跳跃开始”他们的研究生涯，同时仍然居民，使他们更好地准备研究奖学金和K奖的过程，最终导致董事会资格，我们为我们的学员提供了一个“无风险”的道路，以提高作为独立研究者成功的可能性。这种方法旨在纠正当前的状况，即医学博士、博士在因临床培训需要而中断研究后经常面临“重新开始”他们的研究。我们期望教育医生，科学家，以加强翻译研究人员的管道，NIMH的一个关键目标。
