PROJECT SUMMARY The proposed research program seeks to establish a formal training paradigm to support USC neurosurgery residents in pursuit of successful academic careers as clinician-scientists. Physician-scientists are uniquely positioned to address many challenges at the forefront of medicine today. However, due to constraints on time, opportunity, and support, the number of neurosurgeons engaged in meaningful research has declined substantially. The USC R25 Neurosurgery Research Education Program provides the resources, mentorship, and support required to address this gap. The Neurosurgery Department has a strong track record of training productive academic neurosurgeons with active research programs. Recently, USC has recruited multiple transformative, senior faculty members within the neuroscience disciplines. Each of these Institute/ Center Directors has developed strong collaborations with the USC Neurosurgery department and is a mentor/ advisor on this training grant. The USC Neurosurgery Research Education Program incorporates thirty-five faculty members from seventeen different academic departments across the university. Mentors are clinicians and scientists with federal/ foundational funding and prior records notable for successful mentorship. A multi-tiered mentorship system affords each trainee a research supervisor for his/her direct investigative study, direction from a Neurosurgery Research Mentorship Committee and career development guidance from team of clinician-scientists within the candidate's chosen neurosurgery/ neuroscience subspecialty. An educational program is tailored towards developing successful clinician-scientists. This includes a short introductory seminar series and monthly, semi-structured, mentorship sessions with senior clinician-scientists involved with the R25 program. A Transition to Academic Faculty Committee provides sustained guidance and oversight to R25 graduates during their final years of residency training and initial junior faculty appointment. An External Advisory Committee of senior investigators (institutional and national) with strong training program experience assists in guiding the program. The over-arching aim of the proposal is to develop neurosurgeon-scientists capable of securing NIH K-, and ultimately R-, series funding to support independent research.

项目摘要 拟议的研究计划旨在建立一个正式的培训模式，以支持南加州大学神经外科 居民追求成功的学术生涯作为临床科学家。科学家是独一无二的 能够应对当今医学前沿的许多挑战。但是，由于时间的限制， 机会和支持，从事有意义的研究的神经外科医生的数量已经下降 实质上。南加州大学R25神经外科研究教育计划提供资源，指导， 并提供必要的支持以弥补这一差距。神经外科有着良好的培训记录 多产的学术型神经外科医生，有活跃的研究项目。最近，南加州大学招募了多名 神经科学学科中具有变革性的高级教员。每个研究所/中心 董事与南加州大学神经外科部门建立了强有力的合作关系，是导师/顾问 培训补助金南加州大学神经外科研究教育计划包括35名教师 来自全校17个不同学术部门的成员。导师是临床医生， 科学家与联邦/基金会的资金和先前的记录显着的成功导师。多层 导师制为每名学员提供一名研究导师，指导其直接的研究学习、指导 来自神经外科研究导师委员会的指导和来自 候选人选择的神经外科/神经科学子专业的临床科学家。一个教育 该计划是专为培养成功的临床科学家。这包括一个简短的介绍 研讨会系列和每月，半结构化，与高级临床医生，科学家参与指导会议， R25计划过渡到学术教师委员会提供持续的指导和监督， R25毕业生在他们的最后几年的居住培训和初始初级教师任命。外部 具有丰富培训项目经验的高级研究者（机构和国家）咨询委员会 协助指导方案。该提案的首要目标是培养神经外科医生科学家 有能力获得NIH K-，最终R-系列资金，以支持独立研究。
