We propose a new clinical and translational sciences training program at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, Worcester (UMW) campus. Our current application is transdisciplinary – a term describing investigators that work together to expand beyond discipline-based concepts, theories, and methods as a means to address a common research topic. Transdisciplinary teams work collaboratively to address a research topic, but through collaboration develop new questions originating from the cross-fertilization of disciplines. The proposed TL1 will engage pre- and early post-doctoral fellows in training across the entire translational spectrum to participate in a common clinical and translational science program. We have developed this novel training program because we recognize that to accelerate discovery and improve health, clinical and population scientists must understand and interact with the basic biomedical sciences. We will provide skills and experiences that position our trainees to uncover new knowledge that can be translated and implemented into the clinical arena for societal benefit; and inspire basic research based on human needs. Our collective institutional creativity and culture of collaboration support scientific inquiry across disciplinary boundaries, centers, and institutes. The specific aims include: 1. Train and nurture highly qualified pre-doctoral and post-doctoral trainees through the provision of a novel, multifaceted, rigorous TL1 program in clinical and translational research. 2. Recruit trainees from national and local pools of eligible candidates, resulting in a diverse trainee population with respect to clinical background and disciplinary perspective and with diversity with respect to race/ethnicity, social disadvantages, and disabilities. 3. Provide trainees with the strong mentoring teams, rigorous academic training tailored to their research interests, and technical skills necessary to ensure their success as independent investigators and contributors to team science. 4. Provide “hands on” research experience within transdisciplinary teams building on the strengths of current linkages between UMW Departments, Centers, and Institutes. Post-doctoral trainees will complete the Master's in Clinical Investigation (T1 or T2+ concentration); pre- doctoral trainees will complete the clinical and translational science concentration. Our breadth of mentors, scientific disciplines, and academic programs offers the flexibility to individualize each trainee's experience while providing a strong methodological foundation.

我们建议在马萨诸塞州大学开设一个新的临床和转化科学培训项目 伍斯特医学院（UMW）校区。我们目前的应用程序是跨学科的-一个术语描述 研究人员共同努力，超越学科为基础的概念，理论和方法， 这意味着要解决一个共同的研究课题。跨学科团队协作解决 研究课题，但通过合作开发新的问题，源于交叉施肥的 学科拟议的TL 1将在整个培训领域内让博士前和早期博士后研究员参加培训。 翻译谱参与共同的临床和转化科学计划。我们有 开发这个新的培训项目，因为我们认识到，为了加速发现和改善健康， 临床和人口科学家必须了解基础生物医学科学并与之互动。我们将 提供技能和经验，使我们的学员能够发现可以翻译的新知识， 实施到临床竞技场，以造福社会;并激发基于人类需求的基础研究。我们 集体机构创造力和协作文化支持跨学科的科学探究 边界、中心和机构。 具体目标包括： 1.培训和培养高素质的博士前和博士后学员，通过提供 一个新颖的，多方面的，严格的TL 1临床和转化研究计划。 2.从国家和地方合格候选人库中征聘受训人员， 受训人群的临床背景和学科观点， 种族/民族、社会弱势和残疾方面的多样性。 3.为学员提供强大的导师团队，严格的学术培训，为他们量身定制 研究兴趣和必要的技术技能，以确保他们作为独立的成功 团队科学的研究者和贡献者。 4.在跨学科团队中提供“动手”研究经验， UMW部门、中心和研究所之间当前联系的优势。 博士后学员将完成临床研究硕士学位（T1或T2+浓度）; 博士生将完成临床和转化科学的浓度。我们广泛的导师， 科学学科和学术课程提供了灵活性，以个性化每个受训者的经验 同时提供一个坚实的方法论基础。
