Clinical Research Curriculum Award

描述（由申请人提供）：临床和转化研究教育和培训计划将促进临床和转化科学职业的新研究者的招聘，教育和培训，并将提供综合和灵活的研究教育，范围广泛，学科多样。临床和转化研究方法的正式和非正式培训将增加训练有素的研究人员的数量，他们将沿着未来临床和转化科学的关键路径担任领导角色。目标1：从各个职业发展水平的卫生专业人员和科学家中招募下一代临床和翻译研究人员。我们将在整个教育过程中引入实践经验中的临床和转化研究概念，以便我们能够吸引下一代临床和转化研究人员。我们将针对最好的和最有前途的医生，物理治疗师，牙医，药剂师，护士，社会工作者和科学家在各个层次的培训，包括博士前的学生，居民，博士后研究员和教师，特别强调招聘调查人员从代表性不足的少数民族。目标二：通过提供多样化的课程，包括一系列培训机会，包括学位授予计划（临床研究硕士学位和证书以及分子医学硕士学位和转化研究证书），培养下一代临床和转化研究人员。我们将在整个教育途径的卫生专业人员和科学家的临床和转化研究的全方位提供教育机会。我们将整合基于一套核心研究能力的课程，采用灵活有效的教学方法，促进多学科方法。该申请将进一步加强现有的K30计划，增加翻译研究课程，并扩大我们的招聘工作，包括本科和基础科学博士生。我们拥有许多独特的教育资产，包括国家认可的生物医学通信计划和FDA监管事务方面的出色培训。 公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）：临床研究教育和培训是在所有职业阶段招募和培训多学科临床和翻译研究人员的基础。该计划对于促进生物医学研究转化为人类健康的改善至关重要。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Program for Clinical and Translational Research education and Training will promote the recruitment, education and training of new investigators in clinical and translational science careers and will provide integrated and flexible research education that is broad in scope and diverse in disciplines. Formal and informal training in the methodology of clinical and translational research will increase the number of well-trained researchers who will assume leadership roles along the critical path of clinical and translational science for the future. Aim 1: To recruit the next generation of clinical and translational investigators from health professionals and scientists at all levels of career development. We will introduce clinical and translational research concepts within hands-on experiences throughout the educational pathway so that we can engage the next generations of clinical and translational investigators. We will target the best and most promising physicians, physical therapists, dentists, pharmacists, nurses, social workers, and scientists at every level of training, including predoctoral students, residents, postdoctoral fellows, and faculty, with particular emphasis on recruiting investigators from underrepresented minorities. Aim 2: To train the next generation of clinical and translational investigators by offering a diverse curriculum that includes a spectrum of training opportunities, including degree-granting programs (Master's Degree and certificate in Clinical Research and Master's Degree in Molecular Medicine with a certificate in Translational Research). We will offer educational opportunities in the full spectrum of clinical and translational research throughout the educational pathway for health professionals and scientists. We will integrate the curricula based on a core set of research competencies using flexible and efficient teaching methods that will promote multidisciplinary approaches. This application will further enhance the existing K30 Program by adding curricula in translational research and expanding our recruitment efforts to include undergraduate and basic science PhD students. We have a number of unique educational assets including a nationally recognized program in biomedical communications and outstanding training in regulatory affairs with the FDA. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by the applicant): Clinical research education and training is the foundation for recruiting and training multidisciplinary clinical and translational investigators at all career stages. This program is critical to promoting the translation of biomedical research into improvements in human health.
