 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a new proposal to establish a training program at Columbia University focused on training physicians in research techniques that will form the basis of careers in translational investigation of cancer biology, diagnosis and treatment. We will identify and recruit individuals with outstanding research potential who have completed clinical training in medical oncology and prepare them for productive careers as translational investigators in oncology. We will utilize a comprehensive two-year program comprised of didactics, workshops, small group sessions, coursework, including a possible master's degree, and individualized training within the research programs of Columbia University faculty to develop the careers of the participants. Funds are requested in a graded fashion to support up to 4 trainees annually. The Molecular Oncology Training Program faculty is comprised of 26 independent investigators who will provide direct supervision of the trainees. The faculty members are uniformly funded by the NCI, other branches of the NIH and other cancer-focused research organizations and have established themselves as thought-leaders in a broad range of cancer-related disciplines. Participating faculty have been identified on the basis of their research productivity and quality, demonstrated collaboration with other investigators, often across research disciplines, and a history of supporting and developing research careers that transition beyond the post-doctoral level. The trainees will be chosen competitively from a highly select group of committed physician researchers on the basis of past accomplishments and their potential to develop careers as productive, independent translational investigators. The Molecular Oncology Training Program will be supported by the diverse research resources at Columbia University and the ongoing expansion and commitment to oncology that has included both laboratory and clinically focused research. The expansion was heralded by the opening of the Irving Cancer Research Center a 300,000 square-foot building within the Columbia University Medical Center that is entirely dedicated to cancer research and the ongoing recruitment of leading clinical-translational research faculty to the Division of Hematology and Medical Oncology. These changes have significantly broadened the diversity of research at Columbia University with a concomitant increase in quality that has established Columbia in the top tier of oncology programs and has attracted a pool of consummately trained physicians committed to careers in translational cancer biology.

 描述（由应用程序提供）：这是一项新的建议，旨在在哥伦比亚大学建立培训计划，重点是研究研究技术的培训医师，这将构成癌症生物学，诊断和治疗转化研究的基础。我们将 确定并招募具有杰出研究潜力的人，他们已经完成了医学肿瘤学领域的临床培训，并为他们作为肿瘤学研究人员的产品职业做好准备。我们将利用一项全面的为期两年的课程完成教学，讲习班，小组会议，课程工作，包括可能的硕士学位和哥伦比亚大学教师研究计划中的个性化培训，以发展参与者的职业。以分级方式要求资金每年提供多达4名学员。 分子肿瘤学培训计划的教师包括26位独立研究人员，他们将直接监督受训者。教职员工由NCI，NIH的其他分支和其他以癌症为中心的研究组织统一资助，并已将自己确立为与癌症相关学科的广泛思想领袖。参与的教师是根据他们的研究生产力和质量确定的 经常在研究学科中与其他研究人员进行合作，以及支持和发展超出博士后水平的研究职业的历史。学员将根据过去的成就及其发展作为生产性，独立的转化调查员的职业的潜力，从高度精选的实体研究人员中进行竞争选择。 分子肿瘤学培训计划将得到哥伦比亚大学的潜水员研究资源的支持，以及包括实验室和临床专注于研究的肿瘤学的持续扩展和承诺。欧文癌研究中心开设了一座30万平方英尺的建筑，该建筑在哥伦比亚大学医学中心的一座建筑物中预示着扩张，该建筑完全致力于癌症研究，并持续招募领先的临床转换研究教师，以使血液学和医学肿瘤学划分。这些变化显着扩大了哥伦比亚大学的研究多样性，质量的伴随增长已经建立了哥伦比亚肿瘤学计划的顶级，并吸引了一群经过培训的医生，致力于转化癌症生物学的职业。
