DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a renewal application to the NIBIB for continuing our "broad-based" post-doctoral training program in cardiovascular (CV) imaging. CV disease remains the leading cause of morbidity and mortality in the US, yet there are unmet needs in detecting and characterizing CV disease and monitoring/guiding therapy. There are now a multitude of CV imaging technologies and disciplines involved in CV research, from the molecular to clinical level, requiring future generations of CV imaging researchers to have dedicated multi- disciplinary training. Aim: Continue to bring together trainees and mentors from three core and complementary areas - engineering, molecular imaging, and clinical imaging - for a structured two-year research and educational program in CV imaging. Trainees: Four (4) post-doctoral fellows, with balance of MD and PhD backgrounds from all three of the above areas, who train over a two-year period. Mentors: Twenty-one (21) Stanford faculty mentors - half with MDs and three-quarters with PhDs - who are engaged in CV imaging research. Both the School of Medicine and the School of Engineering are well represented, including Cardiovascular Medicine, Radiology/Radiological Sciences, Electrical Engineering/Bioengineering, and the Molecular Imaging Program at Stanford (MIPS). Training Program: Research - two years of research in CV imaging under a primary mentor, with a secondary mentor from a complementary discipline (e.g., MD to complement PhD). Education - Structured program consisting of courses and seminars in 1) Multi-Modality Cardiovascular Imaging, 2) Cardiovascular Imaging Frontiers, 3) Multi-Disciplinary Innovation, and 4) Research Career Development. Environment: Stanford has a strong environment of innovation and technology-based CV imaging research, with NIH-funded programs and numerous facilities in the Schools of Medicine and Engineering, plus additional support from the Cardiovascular Institute and the Center for Biomedical Imaging at Stanford. Impact: We have successfully brought together a broad range of trainees and faculty mentors/co-mentors across Schools/Departments, 1st group in 2009 and 2nd group in 2011. Of the 8 initial trainees, 4 have garnered Assistant Professor or Instructor positions, 3 are continuing in cardiology or post-doctoral fellowship, and 1 is in biomedical industry. Our goal is to continue this innovative program to train the next generation of CV imaging investigators.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是NIBIB的续签申请，继续我们在心血管（CV）成像方面的“广泛”博士后培训计划。心血管疾病仍然是美国发病率和死亡率的主要原因，但在检测和表征心血管疾病以及监测/指导治疗方面仍有未满足的需求。目前，从分子水平到临床水平，CV的研究涉及多种CV成像技术和学科，要求未来几代CV成像研究人员进行专门的多学科培训。目标：继续将来自工程、分子成像和临床成像三个核心和互补领域的学员和导师聚集在一起，进行为期两年的心血管成像结构化研究和教育计划。受训者：四(4)名博士后，具有上述三个领域的医学博士和博士学位，培训时间为两年。导师：21（21）名斯坦福大学教师导师，其中一半拥有医学博士学位，四分之三拥有博士学位，他们从事CV成像研究。医学院和工程学院都有很好的代表，包括心血管医学、放射学/放射科学、电气工程/生物工程和斯坦福大学的分子成像项目（MIPS）。培训计划：研究——在一名主要导师的指导下进行两年的CV成像研究，并有一名来自互补学科的辅助导师（例如，医学博士补充博士学位）。教育-结构化课程包括1)多模式心血管成像，2)心血管成像前沿，3)多学科创新，4)研究职业发展的课程和研讨会。环境：斯坦福大学拥有强大的创新和基于技术的心血管成像研究环境，有美国国立卫生研究院资助的项目和医学院和工程学院的众多设施，以及斯坦福大学心血管研究所和生物医学成像中心的额外支持。影响：我们成功地汇集了各学院/部门的广泛的学员和教师导师/共同导师，2009年的第一组和2011年的第二组。首批8名学员中，4人获得助理教授或讲师职位，3人继续从事心脏病学或博士后研究，1人在生物医学行业。我们的目标是继续这一创新项目，培养下一代心血管成像研究人员。
