描述（由申请人提供）：一支训练有素的临床研究队伍对于推进耳鼻喉头颈外科（OHNS）的患者护理至关重要。本申请的目标是为三组受训者提供与NIDCD任务领域相关的临床研究方面的严格培训：1)博士后，从任何认可的美国耳鼻喉科培训计划毕业的OHNS研究人员（2年经验），2)希望在OHNS相关领域进行临床研究培训和经验的博士博士后（2年经验），3)杜克大学医学院三年级学生（1年经验）。每年培养博士后3人，博士生预科1人。该项目的教师来自杜克大学临床研究所（DCRI， 8名教师）、耳鼻喉科头颈外科（OHNS， 8名教师）、放射肿瘤科（1名教师）和杜克大学全球健康研究所（DGHI， 3名教师）。博士后培养计划包括：1)临床研究健康科学硕士（MHS）学位的教学课程，2)结构化研究经验和论文要求，3)临床研究网络开发和利用的结构化经验，4)职业生涯和领导力发展的教育和指导，5)继续临床和外科技能发展的机会（每周最多半天至一天），6)提供一项过渡性活动，以制定拨款提案并过渡到学术教师职位。对于那些对全球健康有特殊兴趣的学员，MHS计划可以修改为包括全球健康硕士计划的课程，相关的结构化和指导研究经验将在杜克大学教师的直接监督下在发展中国家的杜克大学设施中完成。博士前培训计划的目标是将杜克大学医学院的学生引入耳鼻喉科临床研究，为未来的学术耳鼻喉科医生做好准备。他们的课程将包括教学课程和结构化的研究经验。项目管理包括指导委员会和内部和外部咨询委员会。受训者由杜克临床研究所（DCRI）的高级教师提供双重指导，他们在临床研究方面都有广泛的投资组合，以及耳鼻喉科头颈外科和其他项目的教师。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): A well trained clinical research workforce is essential to advance patient care in Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery (OHNS). The goal of this application is to provide rigorous training in clinical research related to the mission areas of th NIDCD, to three groups of trainees: 1) postdoctoral, post-residency OHNS research fellows graduated from any accredited US Otolaryngology training program (2 year experience), 2) PhD postdoctoral fellows with a desire for clinical research training and experience in OHNS related fields (2 year experience), and 3) third year Duke medical students (1 year experience). The program includes 3 postdoctoral and 1 pre-doctoral trainees per year. Faculty for the program are drawn from the Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI; 8 faculty), the Division of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery (OHNS; 8 faculty), the Department of Radiation Oncology (1), and the Duke Global Health Institute (DGHI; 3 faculty). The post-doctoral training program includes: 1) didactic coursework in fulfillment of the Masters in Health Science in Clinical Research (MHS) degree, 2) structured research experience and thesis requirement, 3) structured experience in development and utilization of a clinical research network, 4) education and mentoring in professional career and leadership development, 5) opportunity for continued clinical and surgical skill development (one half to one day per week maximum), and 6) provision for a bridging activity to develop a grant proposal and transition to academic faculty position. For those trainees with a specific interest in global health, the MHS program may be modified to include coursework from the Masters in Global Health program, and the associated structured and mentored research experience would be completed in a Duke facility in a developing country under the direct supervision of Duke faculty. The goal of the pre-doctoral training program is to introduce Duke medical students who are engaged in their required year of formal research training to otolaryngology-based clinical research, in order to prime the pipeline of academic otolaryngologists of the future. Their program will include didactic coursework and a structured research experience. Program administration includes a Steering Committee and Internal and External Advisory Boards. Trainees are provided dual mentorship by senior faculty at the Duke Clinical Research Institute (DCRI), all of whom have extensive portfolios in clinical research, and the Division of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery and other program faculty.
