DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Pediatric Endocrinology Research Training Program at the University of Chicago will train pediatric physician-scientist leaders in the investigation of endocrine diseases. This training program will help fill the national shortage of physician-scientists in the area of pediatric endocrinology. Two research training slots are requested in this competitive renewal application so that two trainees can be entered annually into a two-year research training program. Thus, this program is for trainees who have had introductory laboratory and course work in their initial year of pediatric endocrinology training and have developed a research project to which they are prepared to dedicate 80% effort for the two-year training period. The training is based in a combined Pediatric-Adult Endocrinology, Diabetes, and Metabolism unit, the Institute for Endocrine Discovery and Clinical Care which is now 6 years old. We are unique in the country with a fully integrated section that is a major training institution of dual boarded physician scientists in pediatric and adult endocrinology. The Senior Training Faculty numbers 15 investigators from four University departments (Medicine, Pediatrics, Human Genetics, Health Studies) who carry out a broad range of endocrine-related clinical and basic research supported by a substantial base of NIH and other peer-reviewed research grants including 27 R-awards, 2 K- awards, 5 P-awards and 6 U-awards. Each is an established investigator. In addition, the program is aided by the participation of 10 Associate Training Faculty and 5 additional resource training faculty from the Departments of Medicine, Pediatrics, Ob/Gyn and Health Studies. The University provides a rich environment of other faculty and physical resources. Trainees are selected on the basis of prior individual accomplishments including prior research training and experience as well as commitment to an academic research career. Trainees select a basic and clinical research mentor and an advisor, and the trainee and mentors jointly identify a primary and secondary research project. Trainees then undergo at least 3 years of training in the research laboratory of the preceptor(s), during which time they assume a progressively greater responsibility for developing research hypotheses, designing experiments, analyzing the data and preparing abstracts and scientific manuscripts. This research training occurs within the framework of a required core curriculum consisting of courses that describe and review current research methodology and research advances as well as statistical analysis of research data. The setting is one that emphasizes translational research and timely monitoring of trainee progress.

描述（由申请人提供）：芝加哥大学的儿科内分泌研究培训计划将培训儿科医师 - 科学家领导者，以调查内分泌疾病。该培训计划将有助于填补小儿内分泌学领域的医师科学家的全国短缺。在此竞争性更新的应用中要求两个研究培训插槽，以便每年可以将两名学员输入为期两年的研究培训计划。因此，该计划适用于在小儿内分泌培训的初始一年中从事介绍性实验室和课程工作的学员，并且已经开发了一个研究项目，他们准备在两年期培训期间将80％的努力付诸实践。该培训基于一组糖尿病和新陈代谢部门的小儿综合内分泌科，内分泌发现和临床护理研究所现已6岁。我们在该国非常独特，拥有一个完全集成的部分，该部分是小儿和成人内分泌学双重登机医师科学家的主要培训机构。这 高级培训教师编号15位来自四个大学系（医学，儿科，人类遗传学，健康研究）的研究人员进行了广泛的内分泌相关临床和基础研究，由NIH和其他经过同行评审研究的大量基础支持，包括27个R-Awards，2个K-awards，2个k-achards，5 p-awards，5 p-awards，5 p-awards和6 u-awards。每个都是既定的调查员。此外，该计划得到了10名副培训学院的参与以及来自医学，儿科，OB/GYN和健康研究部门的另外5位资源培训学院。该大学提供了其他教师和物理资源的丰富环境。基于先前的个人成就，包括先前的研究培训和经验以及对学术研究职业的承诺。学员选择了基本和临床研究的导师和顾问，学员和导师共同确定了一个主要和二级研究项目。然后，受训者在教育者的研究实验室中至少接受了3年的培训，在此期间，他们对开发研究假设，设计实验，分析数据以及准备摘要和科学手稿的责任逐渐更大。该研究培训发生在所需的核心课程的框架内，该课程由描述和审查当前研究方法论和研究进展的课程以及研究数据的统计分析。该设置强调转化研究并及时监控受训者的进步。
