Project Summary The challenge of drug-resistant microbes requires that a new generation of basic scientists be broadly trained and educated in anti-infective research so that a cadre of investigators will be available in the future to combat this global health problem. Coupled with the problem of resistance, this need is especially acute given the reduced number of new, effective antibiotics that have entered clinical practice in the past two decades. Thus, the objective of this new training grant at Emory University is to provide high quality training to a select group of highly motivated graduate students for careers as independent investigators in research on anti- infectives. The program will select three PhD candidates yearly from four graduate programs within the Graduate Division of Biological and Biomedical Sciences of Emory University for a two year period of training in the areas of antimicrobial resistance and therapeutic discovery. These graduate programs include faculty members from basic science and clinical departments of the School of Medicine, Emory College of Arts and Sciences and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC). Educational training will consist of a course of study and programmatic events in sub-disciplines that emphasize research and education in anti-infective resistance and drug development; research training opportunities are provided in 25 laboratories with active research programs in these areas of research.

项目摘要 耐药微生物的挑战要求新一代的基本科学家成为 经过广泛培训和受过反感染研究的教育，以使研究人员将是 将来可以解决这个全球健康问题。加上问题 抗药性，鉴于新的有效抗生素数量减少了，这种需求尤其急剧 在过去的二十年中，已经进入了临床实践。因此，这个新的目标 埃默里大学的培训补助金是为一群高度的高质量培训提供高质量的培训 作为抗抗事研究的独立研究者的动机研究生 感染。该计划将每年从四个研究生课程中选择三名博士学位候选人 在埃默里大学生物学和生物医学科学研究生师内 在抗菌耐药性和治疗发现领域进行的两年培训。 这些研究生课程包括基础科学和临床部门的教职员工 埃默里艺术与科学学院医学院和疾病中心 控制与预防（CDC）。教育培训将包括一个学习课程， 子学科的程序化事件强调反感染的研究和教育 抗药性和药物发展； 25中提供了研究培训机会 在这些研究领域具有活跃研究计划的实验室。
