DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-range goal of activities at Meharry supported by NIMHD Endowment Program for Increasing Research and Resources Capacity is to develop a research capacity and infrastructure supportive of basic, translational, clinical and community-based research focused on eliminating health disparities. One of the acknowledged gaps in the nation's ability make significant inroads toward eliminated minority health disparities is the absence of a critical mass of clinician (physician and dental) scientists. Current trends in NIH funding suggest that scientists most likely to be recruited and retained in clinical research and subsequently obtain NIH funding are dual degree (M.D. /Ph.D. or D.D.S. /Ph.D.) recipients. Therefore the objective of the current application to endow highly integrated initiatives that will positively impact the above national priorities by 1) diversifying the future manpower in science; 2) increasing the number of physician- or dental-scientists; and 3) improving the written and oral communications skills of trainees (pre- and post-doctoral), particularly M.D./Ph.D. and D.D.S/Ph.D. students, and faculty investigators. It is widely known that communications skills in reading, writing and speaking clearly are crucial to scientific We plan to accomplish the goals of this application by pursuing the following two specific aims: 1. To expand and strengthen M.D./Ph.D. training and initiate a D.D.S./Ph.D. program at MMC; and 2. To develop an Office for Enhancing Scientific Communicating. This project will be a college-wide collaboration among the MMC School of Dentistry, the School of Graduate Studies and Research, the School of Medicine and the Office for Research. MMC is uniquely poised to execute this project given its long and successful history in training minority dentists, physicians and biomedical scientist MMC is a designated health professional School under the category of Certain Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

由NIMHD捐赠计划支持的Meharry活动的长期目标是提高研究和资源能力，以发展支持基础，转化，临床和社区研究的研究能力和基础设施，重点是消除健康差距。 国家能力的公认差距之一是在消除少数民族健康差距方面取得重大进展 缺乏临床医生（内科医生和牙科医生）科学家的临界质量。的当前趋势 NIH的资助表明，最有可能被招募并保留在临床研究中并随后获得NIH资助的科学家是双学位（医学博士）。/博士 或者是D.D.S. /博士）受惠人士 因此，本申请的目标是通过以下方式赋予高度综合的举措，这些举措将对上述国家优先事项产生积极影响：1）使未来的科学人力资源多样化; 2)增加医生或牙科科学家的数量; 3）改善书面和口头 学员（博士前和博士后）的沟通技能，特别是医学博士/博士和D.D.S/Ph.D.学生和研究人员。众所周知，阅读、写、说等沟通技巧对科学研究至关重要。 本申请通过追求以下两个具体目标来实现：1.为了扩大和加强医学博士/博士培训并启动D.D.S./博士在MMC的程序;和2.建立一个加强科学交流办公室。 该项目将是MMC牙科学院，研究生学习和研究学院，医学院和研究办公室之间的全学院合作。MMC是唯一准备执行这个项目，因为它在培训少数民族牙医，医生和生物医学科学家MMC的悠久而成功的历史是某些历史上黑人学院和大学（HBCU）类别下指定的卫生专业学校。
