DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application proposes continued support of a successful research-based training program in Endocrinology and Metabolism at Oregon Health & Science University. The main goal of this program, now in its 14th year, is to prepare qualified trainees for successful scientific careers as independent investigators by providing intensive training in hypothesis-driven, basic and disease-oriented research in a stimulating and collegial academic environment. Potential candidates will hold an MD, MD/PhD, or PhD degree. Successful MD candidates will have completed residency training as well as a first, clinical year of endocrine fellowship training prior to enrolling in this program. This requirement allows both MD and PhD trainees to devote at least 80% of their time to first hand experience and training in hypothesis-driven endocrine research under the supervision of an established successful investigator. Research activities will be supplemented by weekly journal clubs, research-in-progress meetings, endocrine research grand rounds, and by formal graduate level course work tailored to the individual scientific needs of each trainee. The special strengths of this program include: 1) The diverse skills and research interests of the faculty in a wide variety of areas including growth factors, thyroid, pituitary, adrenal, signal transduction, molecular genetics, diabetes, obesity, bone and mineral metabolism, lipid disorders, metabolic derangements and reproductive endocrinology. 2) The substantial laboratory resources of the faculty and recently expanded clinical research resources of the OHSU Clinical and Translational Research Center, which facilitates training in state-of-the-art clinical investigation. 3) The outstanding environment for research in both clinical as well as cellular and molecular endocrinology and related areas at OHSU and its affiliated institutions (Vollum Institute and Oregon National Primate Research Center). A major premise of the training program is that the need for skilled physician-investigators will only continue to increase over the coming decades and is critical for continued advancements in human health care. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This program seeks to train independent academic endocrinologists who will function as independent laboratory scientists capable of developing research programs that address endocrine disorders in the future.

描述(由申请人提供)： 这项申请建议继续支持俄勒冈健康与科学大学在内分泌学和新陈代谢方面成功的研究型培训计划。该项目目前已进入第14个年头，其主要目标是通过在激励和大学学术环境中提供假设驱动的、基础的和面向疾病的研究方面的强化培训，为成功的科学职业生涯培养合格的受训人员。应聘者将拥有医学博士、医学博士或博士学位。成功的医学博士候选人将在参加该计划之前完成住院医师培训以及第一年的临床内分泌团契培训。这一要求允许医学博士和博士生将至少80%的时间投入到假说驱动的内分泌研究方面的第一手体验和培训上，并由一位公认的成功的研究人员监督。研究活动将由每周的期刊俱乐部、进行中的研究会议、内分泌研究大轮次以及根据每个受训者的个人科学需求量身定做的正式研究生水平的课程工作来补充。该项目的特殊优势包括：1)教师在各种领域的不同技能和研究兴趣，包括生长因子、甲状腺、垂体、肾上腺、信号转导、分子遗传学、糖尿病、肥胖症、骨骼和矿物质代谢、脂质紊乱、代谢紊乱和生殖内分泌学。2)OHSU临床和翻译研究中心拥有雄厚的实验室资源和最近扩大的临床研究资源，以促进最先进的临床研究培训。3)OHSU及其附属机构(Vollum研究所和俄勒冈国家灵长类动物研究中心)在临床、细胞和分子内分泌学及相关领域的出色研究环境。该培训计划的一个主要前提是，在未来几十年里，对熟练的医生-调查人员的需求只会继续增加，这对人类卫生保健的持续进步至关重要。 公共卫生相关性：该计划旨在培养独立的学术内分泌学家，他们将作为独立的实验室科学家，能够开发未来解决内分泌疾病的研究计划。
