 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objectives of the proposed Training Program are to provide advanced research training in the subdisciplines of Communication Sciences and Disorders to ten predoctoral and ten postdoctoral fellows (i.e., two new predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees will begin the program each year with the expectation that each will be supported for two years). This program is also intended to address the critical shortage of academic researchers in speech, language and hearing research, by drawing trainees from a very broad range of academic disciplines (i.e., including Biomedical Engineering, Neuroscience, and Speech, Language, and Hearing). During the training period, trainees will complete a range of required courses, participate in a weekly research symposium, and will complete a lab rotation that complements their research focus area. These activities have been selected to broaden the trainees' understanding of the full continuum of health research (i.e., from basic research through implementation of clinical practice). Trainees will integrate broadly into the community of researchers at Boston University in Communication Sciences and Disorders, and will also participate actively in national scientific conferences. The Training Faculty supporting this Training Program includes a very broad range of NIH-supported academic researchers focused on speech, language and hearing research. Key outcomes include the full range of accomplishments anticipated for high-achieving pre- and postdoctoral scholars: contributions to peer-reviewed manuscripts, application for federal research (e.g., NIH NRSA mechanisms) and/or training support, active participation in national or international scientific conferences, and eventually, employment by research universities with high levels of research activity.

 描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的培训计划的目标是提供先进的研究培训，在传播科学和疾病的子学科，以十个博士前和十个博士后研究员（即，每年将开始两名新的博士前和博士后受训人员参加该方案，预计每人将得到两年的支助）。该计划还旨在解决言语，语言和听力研究学术研究人员的严重短缺问题，通过吸引来自广泛学科的学员（即，包括生物医学工程、神经科学和言语、语言和听力）。在培训期间，学员将完成一系列必修课程，参加每周一次的研究研讨会，并将完成补充其研究重点领域的实验室轮换。选择这些活动是为了扩大受训人员对整个卫生研究的理解（即，从基础研究到临床实践的实施）。学员将广泛融入波士顿大学传播科学和疾病研究人员社区，并积极参加国家科学会议。支持该培训计划的培训学院包括一系列非常广泛的NIH支持的学术研究人员，专注于语音，语言和听力研究。主要成果包括高成就的博士前和博士后学者预期的全部成就：对同行评审手稿的贡献，联邦研究的申请（例如，NIH NRSA机制）和/或培训支持，积极参与国家或国际科学会议，并最终被具有高水平研究活动的研究型大学雇用。
