项目摘要

Support is requested for continuation of a postdoctoral training program in emerging infectious diseases and biodefense that would support 6 trainees annually and prepare them for clinical, epidemiological, applied or basic research careers in this field. Training will be provided by 21 Program Faculty and 15 Associate Program Faculty in the departments of Pathology, Internal Medicine, Microbiology and Immunology, Pediatrics, Biochemistry and Molecular Biology and Preventive Medicine and Community Health at the University of Texas Medical Branch (UTMB). Faculty include a number ot former trainees. Other resources available at UTMB for the training program include the Center for Biodefense and Emerging Infectious Diseases, the Western Regional Center for Biodefense and Emerging Infectious Diseases, the Institute for Human Infections and Immunity, the Center for Hepatitis Research, the Sealy Center for Vaccine Development, the Keck Center for Virus Imaging, the Sealy Center for Structural Biology, the Galveston National Laboratory, the WHO/PAHO Collaborating Center for Tropical Diseases, and the Galveston Global Health Consortium. There is currently a shortage of trained research scientists with the knowledge and experience necessary to work with emerging infectious disease agents or NIAID category A, B, and C priority pathogens. UTMB now has a critical mass of outstanding faculty and support personnel working the this area, including state-of-the-art containment facilities needed to work with highly pathogenic organisms. The program's goal is leverage the rich and vibrant research environment at UTMB to enable trainees to become independent investigators within the broad field of emerging infectious diseases and biodefense. RELEVANCE (See instructions): Emerging infections and biodefense are important areas of research and there are not enough trained investigators in these fields. This grant will address this shortage by training outstanding.investigators in a dynamic training environment.

请求支持继续开展新发传染病和新发传染病的博士后培训计划生物防御每年支持 6 名学员，帮助他们为临床、流行病学、应用或该领域的基础研究事业。培训将由 21 名项目教员和 15 名助理提供病理学、内科、微生物学和免疫学系的项目教师，儿科、生物化学和分子生物学以及预防医学和社区健康德克萨斯大学医学分部 (UTMB)。教职人员包括许多以前的实习生。其他资源 UTMB 提供的培训计划包括生物防御和新发传染病中心疾病，西部地区生物防御和新发传染病中心，研究所人类感染和免疫、肝炎研究中心、西利疫苗中心开发、凯克病毒成像中心、西利结构生物学中心、加尔维斯顿国家实验室、世界卫生组织/泛美卫生组织热带病合作中心和加尔维斯顿全球中心健康联盟。目前缺乏训练有素、具备相关知识和能力的研究科学家。与新发传染病病原体或 NIAID A、B 和 C 类相关的工作经验优先病原体。 UTMB 现在拥有一批优秀的教职人员和支持人员，该区域包括最先进的遏制设施，需要与高致病性生物体一起工作。该计划的目标是利用 UTMB 丰富而充满活力的研究环境，使学员能够成为新兴传染病和生物防御广泛领域的独立研究人员。相关性（参见说明）：新出现的感染和生物防御是重要的研究领域，但训练有素的人员不足这些领域的研究者。这笔赠款将通过培训杰出的调查人员来解决这一短缺问题动态的训练环境。
