DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This T32 training program proposal in Infectious Diseases (P.I., J.R. Schwebke) builds on the established strengths in basic and clinical research of the combined Adult and Pediatric Divisions of Infectious Diseases at the University of Alabama School of Medicine at Birmingham (UAB). Moreover, the track records of both Divisions in training MDs, graduate students and PhD post docs, are strong and sustained. We have been funded by this grant for 10 years and are extremely proud of the trainees who have been supported by this grant. Our proposal features opportunities for training experiences in five well established, well funded and nationally recognized research programs led by well funded, productive, and highly visible senior investigators/mentors. These programs and program leaders are: Virology - non-HIV (Britt, Whitley - Peds ID), Mycology (Pappas - Adult ID), Sexually Transmitted Diseases (Hook, Schwebke - Adult ID), HIV/AIDS (Saag, Johnson - Adult ID), and Vaccines and Immunology (Briles - Microbiology, Peds ID and Goepfert - Adult ID). Each of these programs centers on interdisciplinary fundamental and/or clinical research in high priority areas directly linked to current public needs. In addition, each program has been highly successful in obtaining core federal funding (primarily NIH and CDC) through investigator-initiated R01's and/or large program project, cooperative agreement and contract awards in response to federally mandated RFAs. Our training proposal seeks funding for two trainees per year, MD or MD/PhD, to fund their third and fourth years of research. Our goal is to produce high quality, productive individuals who will be competitive for NIH K awards and future independent research. Programmatically, an effective interdisciplinary research experience will be implemented by incorporation of required coursework into each individual research plan formulated by the mentor and trainee. Trainees' participation in the curriculum of the NIH Center for Clinical and Translational Research (CCTS) will be required for those training in clinical research. Pursuit of an MSPH will also be available. The overall performance and direction of the training program will be reviewed by the Program Director and Co-Directors on a semi-annual basis.

描述（由申请人提供）：该传染病T32培训计划提案（P.I， J.R. Schwebke）建立在伯明翰阿拉巴马大学医学院（UAB）成人和儿科传染病联合部门的基础和临床研究方面的既定优势之上。此外，两个学部在培养博士、研究生和博士博士后方面的记录都是强劲而持久的。我们得到这项资助已经有10年了，我们为得到这项资助的学员感到非常自豪。我们的提案提供了在五个建立良好、资金充足、国家认可的研究项目中进行培训的机会，这些研究项目由资金充足、富有成效、知名度高的高级研究人员/导师领导。这些项目和项目负责人是：病毒学-非艾滋病毒（Britt， Whitley -儿科ID），真菌学（Pappas -成人ID），性传播疾病（Hook， Schwebke -成人ID），艾滋病毒/艾滋病（Saag， Johnson -成人ID），疫苗和免疫学（briiles -微生物学，儿科ID和Goepfert -成人ID）。这些项目中的每一个都集中在与当前公共需求直接相关的高优先领域的跨学科基础和/或临床研究。此外，每个项目都非常成功地通过研究者发起的R01和/或大型项目、合作协议和合同授予获得核心联邦资金（主要是NIH和CDC），以响应联邦授权的rfa。我们的培训计划每年为两名医学博士或医学博士/博士提供资助，以资助他们第三年和第四年的研究。我们的目标是生产高质量，富有成效的个人谁将是竞争NIH K奖和未来的独立研究。通过将必修课程纳入导师和受训者制定的每个研究计划，将有效地实现跨学科研究经验。临床研究方面的培训需要学员参加美国国立卫生研究院临床与转化研究中心（CCTS）的课程。此外，还将提供追击MSPH的服务。培训计划的总体表现和方向将由项目总监和联合总监每半年审查一次。
