DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is the competitive renewal of a T32 training grant that has provided intensive training in Imaging Research with the overall goal of increasing the number of clinician scientists employing imaging in their future research careers. There is an increasingly serious need for such physicians to become the future teachers and mentors in our major clinical specialties. In particular, Radiology has had a relatively weak history of providing formal training and research opportunities as part of the Clinical Residency Program and yet imaging methodology is now pervading many medical/scientific disciplines. Given the interdisciplinary nature of imaging, we have been fortunate to be able to include in addition to Radiology, T32 proposed departments/programs such as General Internal Medicine, Neurology, Neuropathology, Psychiatry, Surgery, and in this renewal, Oncology and Pediatric trainees. During the last 4 years and expected year 5, we have successfully filled the majority of our slots uniquely co-funded by several NIH institutes. Non-faculty residents and fellowship physicians, especially in Radiology and the T32 proposed departments/programs, will obtain a structured, rigorous research training that they would not normally receive. Didactic coursework will be obtained during the clinical years including identification of training mentors and labs followed b a minimum of 1 to 2 years of formal full- time T32 funded research. This also will directly be integrated with existing more advanced training programs, including M.S and Ph.D. degree granting programs and clinical investigation, as well as opportunities and basic science and public health programs. By starting early in their careers, we anticipate this may ultimately have a major effect on the career paths these trainee physicians will take. The ultimate outcome will be increased numbers of physicians who will carry out a research career integrated with both basic and applied approaches. The training program will consist of explicit didactic courses prior to the training year, followed by a full semester of courses during the T32 training years and carefully assigned mentors and laboratories. The faculty is drawn not only from Radiology but from the associated basic departments including Bioengineering, Electrical Engineering, Psychology, and Public Health. Thus, trainees will train not only in Radiology and the other T32 proposed department/program laboratories, but in affiliated departments at Johns Hopkins University and Intramural NIH (Baltimore and Bethesda), as well as potential industrial scientific labs, providing a true intra-disciplinary research training experience. Evaluation will include formal progress reports, mock grant preparation and review, as well as publications and required national presentations. The long-term goal is to attract resident physicians into a career employing imaging research as a major component of their future academic careers.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是T32培训补助金的竞争续订，该培训补助金为成像研究提供了深入的培训，其总体目标是增加在未来研究职业中使用成像的临床医生数量。在我们的主要临床专业中，这些医生越来越需要成为未来的老师和导师。特别是，放射学具有相对较弱的提供的历史 作为临床居住计划的一部分，正式的培训和研究机会，但是影像学方法现在遍布许多医学/科学学科。鉴于成像的跨学科性质，我们很幸运能够包括放射学，T32拟议部门/计划，例如通用内科，神经病学，神经病理学，精神病学，手术，以及在这种更新，肿瘤学和儿科学员中。在过去的四年和预期的第五年中，我们成功地填补了由几家NIH机构共同资助的大多数老虎机。 非教师居民和奖学金医师，特别是放射学和T32拟议部门/计划，将获得他们通常不会接受的结构化，严格的研究培训。在临床年份将获得教学课程，包括识别培训导师和实验室，遵循B至少1到2年的正式全天T32资助研究。这也将直接与现有的更高级培训计划（包括M.S和Ph.D.）集成。学位授予计划和临床调查，以及机会，基础科学与公共卫生计划。通过从他们的职业生涯开始，我们预计这可能最终会对这些学员医生所采取的职业道路产生重大影响。最终结果将是增加与基本方法和应用方法相结合的研究职业的医师数量。 该培训计划将包括在培训年之前的明确教学课程，然后在T32培训期间进行完整的课程，并精心分配了导师和实验室。该学院不仅是从放射学中汲取的，而且还来自相关的基本部门，包括生物工程，电气工程，心理学和公共卫生。因此，学员不仅将在放射学和其他T32拟议的部门/计划实验室中培训，而且还将在约翰·霍普金斯大学和壁内NIH（巴尔的摩和贝塞斯达）的附属系中进行培训，并提供潜在的工业科学实验室，提供真正的学科内部研究培训经验。评估将包括正式的进度报告，模拟赠款准备和审查以及出版物以及所需的国家演讲。长期目标是吸引住院医师从事职业 将成像研究作为其未来学术职业的主要组成部分。
