DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a resubmission of a competing renewal for a highly successful training program in transplantation immunology and stem cell biology. Over the past 11 years, a dynamic group of internationally recognized investigators in transplantation and stem cell biology were strategically recruited to the University of Louisville which is increasingly recognized for its comprehensive translational research in composite tissue allotransplantation, tolerance, and stem cell-mediated regenerative medicine. This training program directly addresses the mission of the NIH training grant program to help ensure that a diverse and highly trained workforce is available to assume leadership roles related to the nation's biomedical research agenda. All positions have been filled with outstanding applicants to date including six women (one minority), thereby addressing the major concern of all three reviewers. Applicants must have a Ph.D., D.V.M., or M.D. They are required to submit a CV, publication list, three letters of recommendation, and a statement of the specific research proposed. An Executive Training Committee comprised of the program Director and senior trainers selects the trainees. Trainees assemble a program and undertake basic research with one trainer and one or more co-mentors. Evaluation of the Training Program occurs on several levels, including manuscript and abstract submissions; oral presentations and participation at research seminar series; and completion and submission of an NRSA postdoctoral individual training grant or equivalent (AHA, JDRF, ASH, or other foundation or society fellowships) within the second year of training. The overall progress of this Training Program is assessed by an External Advisory Board through semiannual meetings and feedback. The External Advisory Board also assists in minority recruitment. The faculty in this training program has the expertise and breadth of background to successfully train fellows in well-equipped, centrally-located laboratories, it is our goal that our trainees will be qualified to assume leadership positions related to transplantation and stem cell biology in industry, academia, and biotechnology. Our established track record demonstrates that we are well on our way to achieving this goal.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一个非常成功的移植免疫学和干细胞生物学培训计划的竞争性更新的重新提交。在过去的11年里，一个充满活力的国际公认的研究人员在移植和干细胞生物学战略招募到路易斯维尔大学，这是越来越多地承认其在复合组织同种异体移植，耐受性和干细胞介导的再生医学的综合转化研究。该培训计划直接解决了NIH培训补助金计划的使命，以帮助确保多样化和训练有素的劳动力可用于承担与国家生物医学研究议程相关的领导角色。迄今为止，所有职位都已由优秀的申请人填补，其中包括6名妇女（1名少数族裔），从而解决了所有3名审查人的主要关切。申请人必须拥有博士学位，D.V.M.，或者医学博士他们需要提交一份简历，出版物清单，三封推荐信，以及一份关于所提议的具体研究的声明。由项目总监和高级培训师组成的执行培训委员会选择学员。受训者与一名培训师和一名或多名共同导师一起编写一个程序并进行基础研究。培训计划的评估发生在几个层面上，包括手稿和摘要提交;口头报告和研究研讨会系列的参与;和完成和提交NRSA博士后个人培训补助金或同等学历（AHA，JDRF，ASH或其他基金会或社会奖学金）在培训的第二年。外部咨询委员会通过半年一次的会议和反馈意见对该培训计划的总体进展进行评估。外部咨询委员会还协助征聘少数族裔。该培训计划的教师具有专业知识和广泛的背景，能够成功地在设备齐全，位于中心的实验室中培训研究员，我们的目标是我们的学员将有资格担任与工业，学术界和生物技术中的移植和干细胞生物学相关的领导职务。我们既定的业绩记录表明，我们正在朝着实现这一目标迈进。
