T32 Training Program for Institutions That Promote Diversity from Morehouse School of Medicine

摘要 这一培训计划的总体目标是吸引和培养有才华的代表性不足的少数民族前， 博士和博士后学生到医学的莫尔豪斯学院（MSM），并准备他们追求 临床和转化研究（CTR）的独立研究职业机会，从而增加 从事临床心血管疾病和睡眠相关CTR的高技能研究者的数量 紊乱 以下目标将推动该计划的总体目标：目标1：开发多学科临床 心血管和睡眠障碍研究培训计划，将招募URM候选人在整个 亚特兰大临床和转化科学研究所（ACTSI）及其合作机构（MSM，埃默里， 格鲁吉亚理工学院）。我们将针对对心血管和睡眠障碍研究感兴趣的博士研究生 在MSM MSCR计划的博士/MSCR轨道招生，并针对博士后学生 对心血管和睡眠障碍研究感兴趣，以便参加MSM MSCR计划。目标二： 加强心血管和睡眠障碍的临床和转化研究培训环境， 少数民族T32学员。我们将促进T32学员之间的跨学科讨论和科学交流， 教师和导师。 我们将利用MSM研究生医学教育计划的多样性和优势，基础科学 心血管和神经科学研究所的卓越研究， 为实现上述目标，培训和技术服务机构的资源和指导。

Abstract The overall goal of this training program is to attract and train talented under-represented minority pre- doctoral and post-doctoral students to Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) and prepare them to pursue independent research career opportunities in Clinical and Translational Research (CTR) thereby augmenting the number of highly skilled investigators pursuing CTR related to clinical cardiovascular disease and sleep disorders. The following aims will drive the overall goal of this program: Aim 1: Develop a multidisciplinary clinical cardiovascular and sleep-disorders research training program that will recruit URM candidates across the Atlanta Clinical and Translational Science Institute (ACTSI) and its partner institutions (MSM, Emory, and Georgia Tech). We will target PhD graduate students interested in cardiovascular and sleep disorders research for enrollment in the PhD/MSCR track in the MSM MSCR program, and target post-doctoral students interested in cardiovascular and sleep disorders research for enrollment in the MSM MSCR program. Aim 2: Enhance the clinical and translational research training environment in cardiovascular and sleep disorders for minority T32 trainees. We will promote interdisciplinary discourse and scientific exchange among T32 trainees, faculty and mentors. We will harnesses the diversity and strength of MSM graduate medical education programs, the basic science research excellence of the Cardiovascular and Neuroscience institutes, the outstanding clinical research resources and mentorship of the ACTSI to address the above aims.
