DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The lack of investigators with the skills and clinical knowledge required effectively investigating benign urological disorders and identifying improved methods of diagnosis and treatment has been identified as a critical need by the NIH and Institute of Medicine. In particular, there is a lack of MDs and PhDs with the skills necessary to establish successful careers as independent researchers capable of translating research findings to clinical practice. The University of Wisconsin (UW) is uniquely suited to provide this training. Our training program will benefit substantially from a close and enthusiastic partnership with the Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (ICTR). ICTR is the academic home responsible for implementing programs supported by the Clinical and Translational Sciences Award (CTSA) competitively renewed at the UW. It is a stated goal of the ICTR KL2 training program to include recipients of other institutional or independent K awards in career development activities of the ICTR KL2 program. The resources of the ICTR are manifold and will provide a foundation for our planned recruiting, training, and educational activities. The ICTR has an active KL2 program that currently supports 19 trainees, and these individuals, combined with 3 trainees in the K12 program, constitute a critical mass that will benefit from well-established programs of training and mentoring. Trainees will have the option to pursue graduate degrees or certificates in Clinical Investigation. We will also combine efforts with ICTR to increase the number of underrepresented minorities and disadvantaged individuals choosing to pursue postdoctoral training. There will be synergy between the proposed K12 program and the Educational Enrichment Program described in the recent P20 award for which Dr. Bushman (co-PI of current proposal) is the PI (1 P20 DK097826-01; Urinary Biomarkers of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) in Men). Further, we are preparing an application for an O'Brien Center award, in accordance with the December 14, 2012, submission deadline for which Dr. Bushman will serve as PI. In summary, this K12 program incorporates excellent trainers in a variety of disciplines who will prepare trainees for outstanding careers as independent researchers investigating problems of significant relevance to benign urology.

描述（由申请人提供）：缺乏具有有效研究良性泌尿系统疾病并确定改进的诊断和治疗方法所需的技能和临床知识的研究人员已被NIH和医学研究所确定为迫切需要。特别是缺乏具备必要技能的医学博士和博士 建立成功的职业生涯作为独立的研究人员能够将研究成果转化为临床实践。威斯康星州（UW）的大学是唯一适合提供这种培训。我们的培训计划将大大受益于密切和热情的伙伴关系 临床和转化研究所（ICTR）。ICTR是负责实施由临床和转化科学奖（CTSA）支持的项目的学术之家，该奖项在UW竞争性更新。卢旺达问题国际法庭KL 2培训方案的既定目标是让其他机构或独立K奖获得者参加卢旺达问题国际法庭KL 2方案的职业发展活动。卢旺达问题国际法庭的资源是多方面的，将为我们计划的征聘、培训和教育活动提供基础。卢旺达问题国际法庭有一个正在实施的KL 2方案，目前支助19名受训人员，这些人加上K12方案的3名受训人员，构成了一个关键群体，将受益于完善的培训和辅导方案。受训人员将可以选择攻读临床研究的研究生学位或证书。我们还将联合收割机与卢旺达问题国际法庭共同努力，增加代表性不足的少数民族和处境不利的个人选择接受博士后培训的人数。拟议的K12项目与最近P20奖项中描述的教育丰富项目之间将存在协同作用，Bushman博士（当前提案的共同PI）是该项目的PI（1 P20 DK 097826 -01;男性下尿路症状（LUTS）的尿生物标志物）。此外，我们正在准备奥布莱恩中心奖的申请，按照2012年12月14日的提交截止日期，Bushman博士将担任PI。总之，这个K12计划结合了各种学科的优秀培训师，他们将为学员的杰出职业生涯做好准备，作为独立研究人员调查与良性泌尿学显著相关的问题。
