DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We are requesting a continuation of R25 CA089017, Multidisciplinary Training in Image-guided Therapy (IGT) at the Brigham and Women's Hospital. As we close in on the end of the second cycle, we are eager to continue on a successful track record in training MD and PhD fellows in the principles and practices of image-guided therapy for the treatment of cancer and cancer- related illnesses. To this end, we have prepared an application that has retained the most successful features of the training program that includes the most recent research occurring within the National Center for Image Guided Therapy (www.ncigt.org) (P41 EB015898, previously P41 RR019703) as well as in other relevant areas of the hospital community. The NCIGT provides a unique centralized infrastructure for clinical investigators, biomedical engineers, and basic scientists in promoting and advancing IGT methods and related clinical applications primarily aimed at the detection, diagnosis, and treatment of cancer. Fellows have the NCIGT efforts and new innovative technologies made available to them through seven training units: 1) Imaging; 2) Computation; 3) Tumor Ablation; 4) Focused Ultrasound; 5) Image-guided Neurosurgery; 6) Image-guided Prostate Therapy; and 7) the Advanced Multimodality Image-Guided Operating (AMIGO) suite. The AMIGO, which is our new operating suite at the Brigham devoted to image-guided therapy, is a main area for Fellows to receive education and training and to initiate and complete cancer-focused research projects. At the outset of this two-year fellowship, trainees work with the PI, the Director of Education, and a senior faculty member/mentor to tailor an educational program that best meets the individual's needs and career goals. Fellows are exposed to both a specialized and a didactic curriculum, while concentrating on a specific area of cancer research. Additional mentors are assigned according to "Individual Training Plans." While each training program is unique, all fellows are required to engage in a research project of considerable duration and produce a "mock" or a real NIH grant application that is evaluated and reviewing internally. The PI, Advisory Committee, senior mentors, and other mentors, (depending on the research topic), take part in these reviews. The PI and Advisory Committee also provide oversight and strategic planning by 1) developing and refining a general recruitment plan and one targeted for underserved populations and women; 2) assessing curriculum design and content; 3) identifying trends in IGT research and training; and 4) making recommendations on the selection of fellows and placement in the program.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们请求继续在Brigham and Women's Hospital进行R25 CA 089017，图像引导治疗（IGT）多学科培训。当我们接近第二个周期的结束时，我们渴望继续在培训医学博士和博士研究员方面取得成功，这些研究员将图像引导治疗的原则和实践用于治疗癌症和癌症相关疾病。为此，我们准备了一个应用程序，保留了培训计划中最成功的功能，包括国家图像引导治疗中心（www.ncigt.org）（P41 EB 015898，以前为P41 RR 019703）以及医院社区其他相关领域的最新研究。NCIGT为临床研究人员、生物医学工程师和基础科学家提供了一个独特的集中基础设施，以促进和推进IGT方法和相关临床应用，主要目的是检测、诊断和治疗癌症。研究员通过七个培训单元获得NCIGT的努力和新的创新技术：1）成像; 2）计算; 3）肿瘤消融; 4）聚焦超声; 5）图像引导神经外科; 6）图像引导前列腺治疗;和7）高级多模态图像引导手术（AMIGO）套件。AMIGO是我们在布里格姆专门用于图像引导治疗的新手术室，是研究员接受教育和培训以及启动和完成以癌症为重点的研究项目的主要区域。在这个为期两年的奖学金开始时，学员与PI，教育主任和高级教员/导师合作，定制最能满足个人需求和职业目标的教育计划。研究员接触到专业和教学课程，同时专注于癌症研究的特定领域。根据“个人培训计划”分配额外的导师。虽然每个培训项目都是独一无二的，但所有研究员都必须参与一个相当长时间的研究项目，并制作一份“模拟”或真实的NIH资助申请，供内部评估和审查。PI、咨询委员会、高级导师和其他导师（取决于研究主题）参加这些审查。PI和咨询委员会还通过以下方式提供监督和战略规划：1）制定和完善一般招聘计划以及针对服务不足人口和妇女的招聘计划; 2）评估课程设计和内容; 3）确定IGT研究和培训的趋势;以及4）就研究员的选择和计划中的安置提出建议。
