DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): There is a shortage of well-trained research-oriented pediatric pulmonologists who are prepared to develop new approaches to prevent, diagnose and treat childhood respiratory diseases. This limited pool of well- established investigators is further threatened by a decreasing number of young physician scientists who choose to specialize in pediatric pulmonary and sleep medicine. Training at all levels is an important priority at Cincinnati Children's Hospital which has established extensive programs for developing MD, PHD and MD/PhD fellows and faculty into independent clinical and basic science investigators. The Pediatric Pulmonary Division at Cincinnati Children's Hospital Medical Center (CCHMC) is uniquely positioned to interest students in both pediatric pulmonary and sleep medicine. Pulmonary research at CCHMC has very strong and diverse clinical and basic science research programs and the Sleep Disorder Center is one of the few pediatric programs in the United States that has a certified pediatric sleep fellowship program with an extensive research focus. This proposal will provide a 10 week summer research fellowship for 7 to 8 students from all US medical and osteopathic schools from which under-represented groups will be recruited. The proposed program will have a well-organized method of selection of trainees and mentors as well as an effective means of assessing the trainees' progress. A faculty of 26 MDs, PhDs and MD/PhDs from multiple departments with a proven record of success in research and mentoring are available to the trainees. All investigators are well-funded in NHLBI- focused research areas. Included within the program are opportunities to pursue basic and clinical research projects with weekly meetings at which instruction in responsible conduct of research and specific clinical and research topics in pulmonary and sleep medicine are provided. Students present their proposed projects to peers and mentors at the beginning of the summer and at the end of summer symposium when the results are presented in a poster format. The strengths of our research programs in the areas of pulmonary and sleep medicine combined with an enthusiastic faculty and a well-organized summer program provides an excellent opportunity to attract physician trainees at early and critical stages in their careers and increase the likelihood they will want to further pursue research as physician-scientists.

描述（由申请人提供）：缺乏训练有素的研究型儿科肺科医生，他们准备开发新的方法来预防、诊断和治疗儿童呼吸道疾病。选择专攻儿科肺部和睡眠医学的年轻内科科学家数量的减少进一步威胁到这一有限的知名研究人员。在辛辛那提儿童医院，各级培训是一项重要的优先事项，该医院建立了广泛的项目，将医学博士、博士、医学博士/博士研究员和教师培养成独立的临床和基础科学研究者。辛辛那提儿童医院医学中心（CCHMC）的儿科肺科具有独特的定位，使学生对儿科肺科和睡眠医学都感兴趣。CCHMC的肺部研究拥有非常强大和多样化的临床和基础科学研究项目，睡眠障碍中心是美国少数几个拥有经过认证的儿科睡眠奖学金项目的儿科项目之一，具有广泛的研究重点。该提案将为来自所有美国医学和骨科学校的7至8名学生提供为期10周的暑期研究奖学金，这些学校将从代表性不足的群体中招募。该计划将有一个组织良好的学员和导师的选择方法，以及评估学员进展的有效手段。由26位博士、博士和博士/博士组成的教师队伍来自多个部门，在研究和指导方面取得了成功的记录。所有研究人员在NHLBI重点研究领域都有充足的资金支持。该计划包括有机会进行基础和临床研究项目，每周举行会议，指导负责任的研究行为以及肺和睡眠医学的特定临床和研究主题。学生在夏季开始时和夏季研讨会结束时向同行和导师展示他们提出的项目，结果以海报形式呈现。我们在肺部和睡眠医学领域的研究项目的优势，加上热情的教师和组织良好的暑期项目，为在职业生涯早期和关键阶段吸引医师培训生提供了一个极好的机会，并增加了他们想要进一步从事医学科学家研究的可能性。
