DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This training program provides 8 - 12 weeks of basic and outcomes research training for medical students aspiring to careers as clinician-scientists with a budding interest in vascular surgery. Mentored research training in molecular and cell biology, biomechanics, coagulation thrombosis, angiogenesis and clinical outcomes is provided with a focus on clinically relevant problems such as atherogenesis, intimal hyperplasia, prosthetic/host interactions and thrombosis. This program will replace our privately funded and highly successful, The William J. von Liebig Summer Research Program in Vascular Surgery, now drawing to a close. Students pursue a program of highly mentored research, conducted and closely supervised by the program director, co-director and mentors who have well-established records of peer-reviewed research, and who were selected both for the current research activities and their proven commitment to train medical student research fellows. Students are matched with the program's faculty on the basis of the background and research interest of the individual student. Students are provided with a specific, achievable goal within an ongoing research project. They work directly with a postdoctoral fellow who supervises daily activities and who has a specific assignment of mentorship. Students also have a protected time on a weekly basis with the senior investigators/mentors. Programs in responsible conduct of research along with classroom-based discussion section is mandatory. In addition to didactic lectures presented by the faculty, at weekly meetings of all students, an established mentor provides an overview of his/her career and laboratory history. The mentors and postdoctoral fellows are part of our parallel and highly successful T32: Harvard-Longwood Research Training in Vascular Surgery. This program has a focus on research related to vascular surgery and gives students a further perspective on the evolution of an academic career. It also demonstrates the value of interdisciplinary collaboration through our exemplary faculty. Upon completion of the T35 program, the student will have had an introductory research experience in the most positive light. They will have come to know successful Clinician-Scientists and will be supported as much as possible as their career evolves regardless of their final chosen specialty. All students have access to Harvard libraries, and the opportunity to attend myriad didactic sessions in the Longwood Medical area. Selection is based on the candidates' demonstrated ability and interest in an academic career. Applicants will be students who have completed at least one year of medical school. Our applicant pool is drawn from a national search, which consistently (under the preexisting program) brings us about 40 highly qualified applicants. Special attention is given to recruitment of women and minorities. We attract outstanding students from all over the country and have demonstrated our commitment to providing an inspiring experience that will foster interest in a clinician-scientist career.

描述（由申请人提供）：该培训计划为有志于成为临床科学家并对血管外科有初步兴趣的医科学生提供8 - 12周的基础和结果研究培训。在分子和细胞生物学、生物力学、凝血血栓形成、血管生成和临床结果方面提供指导研究培训，重点关注临床相关问题，如动脉粥样硬化、内膜增生、假体/宿主相互作用和血栓形成。这个项目将取代我们私人资助的，非常成功的，威廉·j·冯·李比希血管外科夏季研究项目，该项目即将结束。学生进行的研究项目受到高度指导，由项目主任、副主任和导师进行和密切监督，这些导师在同行评审的研究中有着良好的记录，他们被选中进行当前的研究活动，并证明他们致力于培养医学学生研究人员。根据学生个人的背景和研究兴趣，学生与该计划的教师相匹配。在一个正在进行的研究项目中，为学生提供一个具体的、可实现的目标。他们直接与一名博士后一起工作，后者负责监督日常活动，并有具体的指导任务。学生每周也有一个受保护的时间与高级调查员/导师在一起。负责任的研究项目以及课堂讨论部分是强制性的。除了教师的教学讲座外，在所有学生的每周会议上，一位已建立的导师会提供他/她的职业生涯和实验室历史的概述。这些导师和博士后都是我们并行且非常成功的T32：哈佛-朗伍德血管外科研究培训的一部分。该课程侧重于血管外科相关的研究，让学生对学术生涯的发展有更深入的了解。它还通过我们的模范教师展示了跨学科合作的价值。完成T35课程后，学生将有一个最积极的介绍性研究经验。他们将认识成功的临床科学家，并将尽可能多地支持他们的职业发展，而不管他们最终选择的专业是什么。所有学生都可以进入哈佛图书馆，并有机会参加朗伍德医学区无数的教学会议。选择是基于候选人在学术生涯中表现出的能力和兴趣。申请人必须在医学院完成至少一年的学习。我们的申请人才库是从全国范围内的搜索中抽取的，（在既存计划下）始终能给我们带来大约40名高素质的申请人。特别注意征聘妇女和少数民族。我们吸引了来自全国各地的优秀学生，并证明了我们的承诺，提供一个鼓舞人心的经验，将培养对临床科学家职业的兴趣。（摘要结束）
