Biomedical Imaging for Clinician Scientists

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请是建立一个结构化的密集的为期一年的培训计划，在生物医学成像的基础上，在加州大学旧金山分校放射科。该计划将开放给放射科居民谁是或已完成培训。该培训计划的主要长期目标是培养一批学术放射科医生，他们将成为生物医学成像领域的领导者，并帮助解决目前缺乏此类临床科学研究人员的问题。更具体地说，该计划将招募候选人，他们将由指定的临床放射科医生，基础科学家和临床医生团队指导。每个受训者将隶属于放射科现有的一个科室，并酌情与科室实验室的研究人员和其他科室的临床医生合作。鉴于UCSF跨学科合作的悠久历史，放射学系内临床和研究教师的深度和多样性，该部门非常适合提供这样的培训计划，该部门将毗邻UCSF新的43英亩生命科学使命湾校区。这些新的资源将进一步提高部门和机构的能力，以吸引研究人员，并继续在UCSF开创性的，尖端的生物医学成像的悠久传统。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is to establish a structured intensive one-year training program in Biomedical Imaging based in the Department of Radiology at UCSF. The program will be open to Radiology residents who are in or have completed training. The primary long-term objective of this training program is to produce a cadre of academic radiologists who will become leaders in Biomedical Imaging, and help address the current lack of such clinical scientific investigators. More specifically, the program will recruit candidates who will be mentored by a designated team of clinical radiologists, basic scientists, and clinicians. Each trainee will be affiliated with one of the existing sections within the Department of Radiology, and collaborate as appropriate with researchers from the departmental laboratories and clinicians from other departments. The Department is ideally positioned to provide such a training program, given the long history of interdisciplinary collaboration at UCSF, the depth and diversity of the clinical and research faculty within the Department of Radiology, which will be adjacent to the new 43-acre Life Sciences Mission Bay campus of UCSF. These new resources will further increase the ability of the department and institution to attract researchers and continue the long tradition of ground breaking, cutting edge Biomedical Imaging at UCSF.
