DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this proposal is to provide the basis for a national effort to support, train, and mentor junior neurosurgical faculty members at appropriate institutions nationwide. This application describes the details of all key aspects or the mechanism for recruiting applicants and the developing them into surgeon-scientists through a Neurosurgeon Research Career Development Program (NRCDP). The proposal also addresses topics such as the rationale for the program, the relevant history of the PI and Institution and the need for the NRCDP. The proposal addresses the mechanism that will be use to develop and promote a network of established faculty and the rationale for selection of a National Advisory Committee (NAC). It also details a plan for negotiation and coordination with participating institutions, departments and Chairpersons. There is a well-designed plan for recruitment of the best applicants, under-represented minorities, and a detailed plan for the selection of scholar-applicants based on their potential for success, the track record of their mentor, and the support of their Chairpersons. There is also a plan for monitoring the scholars via bi-annual progress reports and site visits. In addition, there is a plan for an annual two-day retreat that includes applicant interviews, talks and lectures, and an advisory board meeting for review of the scholar applicants. The Principal Investigator and the Institution are optimally positioned to administer this award. The PI is the Neurosurgical residency program director at the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH), has three R01 funded projects, and has assembled a highly accomplished and diverse advisory committee. The department has a strong track record of producing neurosurgeons that become accomplished independent surgeon-scientists. The PI has served on numerous NIH study sections, and will chair the advisory committee, but will not vote on individual applications. This will ensure that proposals are evaluated fairly and competently. The PI, department and institution have the necessary infrastructure, experience, and motivation to successfully and fairly administer this award on a nation-wide basis to generate a core of skilled, competent, and innovative neurosurgeon-scientists that will become the backbone for the next generation of neurosurgical discovery and treatment.

描述（由申请人提供）：本提案的目的是为国家努力在全国范围内的适当机构支持，培训和指导初级神经外科教师提供基础。本申请描述了所有关键方面的细节或招募申请人的机制，并通过神经外科医生研究职业发展计划（NRCDP）将其发展为外科医生科学家。该提案还讨论了项目的基本原理、PI和机构的相关历史以及NCDP的必要性等主题。该提案涉及将用于发展和促进既定教师网络的机制，以及选择国家咨询委员会的理由。它还详细说明了与参与机构、部门和主席进行谈判和协调的计划。有一个精心设计的计划，招聘最好的申请人，代表性不足的少数民族，并有一个详细的计划，根据他们的成功潜力，他们的导师的跟踪记录，以及他们的主席的支持，选择申请人。还计划通过每两年一次的进展报告和现场访问来监测学者。此外，还有一个为期两天的年度务虚会计划，其中包括申请人面试，会谈和讲座，以及一个顾问委员会会议，审查学者申请人。 主要研究者和机构最适合管理该奖项。PI是马萨诸塞州总医院（MGH）的神经外科住院医师项目主任，有三个R01资助的项目，并组建了一个高度成功和多样化的咨询委员会。该部门有一个强大的记录生产神经外科医生，成为有成就的独立外科医生科学家。PI曾在许多NIH研究部门任职，并将担任咨询委员会主席，但不会对个人申请进行投票。这将确保提案得到公平和适当的评价。PI，部门和机构有必要的基础设施，经验和动机，在全国范围内成功和公平地管理这个奖项，以产生一个熟练，有能力和创新的神经外科科学家的核心，将成为下一代神经外科发现和治疗的骨干。
