DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a revised application from the Indiana University School of Medicine (IUSM) to support the Indiana Cutaneous Biology Research Training Program (ICBRTP), which will focus on the training of postdoctoral cutaneous biologists. The goal of the proposed program is to produce post-doctoral trainees in an interdisciplinary environment of highly interactive basic scientists and clinicians and prepare them for a career in cutaneous biology research. A group of 10 very experienced senior faculty with a long history of skin-related research have been assembled to serve as preceptors for this T32 training program. This group along with six junior faculty serving as resource faculty have created a highly productive translational research environment. Strengths of the program include the leadership of a Program Director and two Associate Program Directors, all three with established administrative, training, and research experience in both basic and clinical science, and the quality of the preceptors, research environment, and diversity of skin-related research, and a full spectrum of existing resources for performing "bench to bedside" research projects. Preceptors and resource faculty of the ICBRTP represent a total of nine separate clinical or basic science departments and currently have ~ $27 million of peer reviewed direct research funds per year. These preceptors have extensive experience in training young scientists who have successfully continued in academic and research positions. Support is requested for 2 post-doctoral PhD or MD trainees, and an additional fellowship position will be funded by the IU Department of Dermatology. All trainees will take courses in scientific ethics and translational research methods. Didactic coursework requirements will be tailored to the research focus of the post-doctoral fellow. Program-specific educational/research events include a weekly Dermatology Research in Progress meeting, basic science and clinical conferences and attendance at the annual Society for Investigative Dermatology Meeting. In addition to research, trainees will write and present a grant proposal. A program- specific Steering Committee comprising senior investigators who are T32 program directors, External Advisory Committee comprising four investigators who represent diverse training experiences at other institutions, and a four-step program evaluation process are in place. ICBRTP will augment the commitment of the IUSM to educate researchers who will discover new diagnostic tools, and alter therapeutic paradigms in the development of new and more efficacious treatments for skin diseases.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是印第安纳州大学医学院（IUSM）的修订申请，旨在支持印第安纳州皮肤生物学研究培训计划（ICBRTP），该计划将重点关注博士后皮肤生物学家的培训。拟议计划的目标是在高度互动的基础科学家和临床医生的跨学科环境中培养博士后学员，并为他们在皮肤生物学研究中的职业生涯做好准备。一个由10名经验丰富的资深教师组成的小组，他们在皮肤相关的研究方面有着悠久的历史，他们将担任T32培训计划的导师。这个小组沿着有六名初级教员作为资源教员，创造了一个高产的翻译研究环境。该计划的优势包括一个项目主任和两个副项目主任的领导，所有三个建立行政，培训和研究经验，在基础和临床科学，和导师的质量，研究环境，和皮肤相关研究的多样性，以及现有的资源进行全方位的“板凳到床边”的研究项目。ICBRTP的导师和资源教师代表了总共九个独立的临床或基础科学部门，目前每年有约2700万美元的同行评审直接研究资金。这些导师在培训成功地继续担任学术和研究职位的年轻科学家方面拥有丰富的经验。支持是要求2博士后博士或医学博士学员，和一个额外的奖学金职位将由皮肤科的IU部门资助。所有学员将参加科学道德和转化研究方法的课程。教学课程要求将根据博士后研究员的研究重点量身定制。具体计划的教育/研究活动包括每周皮肤病学研究进展会议，基础科学和临床会议，并参加年度皮肤病学研究会议。除了研究，学员将编写和提出赠款建议。一个由T32项目主管高级研究员组成的项目特定指导委员会，由四名代表其他机构不同培训经验的研究员组成的外部咨询委员会，以及一个四步项目评估流程已经到位。ICBRTP将加强IUSM的承诺，教育研究人员发现新的诊断工具，并改变治疗模式，开发新的更有效的皮肤病治疗方法。
