Stanford Neurosurgery Resident Research Education Program

项目描述：斯坦福大学神经外科住院医师研究教育计划的目的是为神经外科住院医师提供基础和临床研究方面的教育，以培养他们成长为临床医生科学家。它的目标是教育和培训神经外科医生，使他们能够在整个职业生涯中建立和指导科学实验室。该战略是确定具有科学研究潜力的居民，并将他们安排在经验丰富的资深研究科学家的实验室工作两年。他们还将接受该项目神经外科主任的广泛咨询，并参加关于研究技能和道德研究行为的研讨会。他们的进展和整个计划的成功将被反复评估，并将对计划做出适当的改变。希望这一计划将培养出能够在大脑和脊髓疾病的病因方面做出新发现的神经外科医生，产生新的、更有效的治疗方法，并在履行NIH的使命时，改善患有这些疾病的人的健康。 公共卫生相关性：该项目寻求对神经外科住院医师的研究教育的支持。人们希望，这将培养出能够在大脑和脊髓疾病的病因方面做出新发现的神经外科医生，并产生新的、更有效的治疗方法。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Description: The purpose of this Stanford Neurosurgery Resident Research Education Program is to provide education in basic and clinical research to neurosurgery residents with the goal of fostering their growth into clinician scientists. Its goal is to educate and train neurosurgeons capable of establishing and directing a scientific laboratory throughout their careers. The strategy is to identify residents with the potential for scientific research and place them for a two year term in the laboratories of senior, highly experienced research scientists. They will also receive extensive counseling by the neurosurgical directors of the program and participate in seminars on research skills and ethical research behavior. Their progress and the success of the overall program will be repeatedly assessed and appropriate changes in the program will be made. It is hoped that this program will produce neurosurgeons capable of making new discoveries regarding the causes of diseases of the brain and spinal cord, that new, more effective treatments will result, and, in fulfillment of the mission of the NIH, that the health of persons afflicted with these diseases will be improved. Public Health Relevance: This project seeks support for the education of neurosurgical residents in research. It is hoped that this will produce neurosurgeons capable on making new discoveries regarding the causes of diseases of the brain and spinal cord and that new, more effective treatments will result.
