 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We seek to renew our postdoctoral Interdisciplinary Training Program in Biobehavioral Pain Research at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions (JHMI). Chronic pain is one of the most common and disabling symptoms in our society. Pain is a highly complex phenomenon that involves, genetic, molecular, neurophysiologic, cognitive-emotional, and sociocultural determinants. The treatment of pain remains inadequate in almost every clinical situation and consequently demands programs to create specialized, interdisciplinary training in pain research that addresses the tremendous challenge of developing, evaluating, disseminating, and integrating effective pain treatments into clinical care. The overarching goal of the proposed postdoctoral program is to prepare the next generation of innovative research leaders to work cooperatively within an interdisciplinary team to address the complex problem of pain. To this end, we are again requesting support for four postdoctoral fellows. We expect each of these fellows to stay in the program for two years, unless they receive independent funding (e.g. an F32 grant). To encourage a diverse program, we are requesting support for two fellows (PhDs) who are in the first year of post-graduate research (PGY0), as well as two fellows who have completed their residency following medical school (PGY5). This renewal proposes to emphasize the neuroscience of pain throughout the training. Each faculty mentor is actively funded, engaged in the education of young investigators, and committed to interdisciplinary collaboration. The Program incorporates coursework and mentored research experiences in at least two scientific domains that are synthesized by: 1) an integrated research project, 2) an extramural grant application, and 3) the writing and publishing of papers. The training objectives are to: 1) develop an enhanced foundation in the neuroscience of pain; 2) engender a broad conceptualization of pain that includes, but is not limited to, neurobiologic, cognitive, emotional, behavioral, and social processes; 3) develop skills for communicating, networking and collaborating with scientists in other disciplines; and 4) design and conduct an integrative pain research project. Each fellow is to be collaboratively mentored by two core faculty with distinct domains of pain research expertise in either: 1) neuroscience, 2) clinical research and 3) behavioral or social science. Program faculty cut across the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, and Public Health. Our goal is to prepare the next generation of pain scientists to lead interdisciplinary research teams that will innovatively address the problem of pain using transformative research paradigms.

 描述（由申请人提供）：我们寻求在约翰霍普金斯医疗机构（JHMI）更新我们的生物行为疼痛研究博士后跨学科培训计划。慢性疼痛是我们社会中最常见和致残的症状之一。疼痛是一种高度复杂的现象，涉及遗传、分子、神经生理、认知情感和社会文化决定因素。疼痛的治疗在几乎所有的临床情况下仍然不足，因此需要在疼痛研究中创建专业的跨学科培训计划，以解决开发，评估，传播和将有效的疼痛治疗整合到临床护理中的巨大挑战。拟议的博士后计划的总体目标是准备下一代创新研究领导者在跨学科团队中合作，以解决疼痛的复杂问题。为此，我们再次请求支持四名博士后研究员。我们希望这些研究员中的每一个都能在项目中呆上两年，除非他们得到独立的资助（例如F32赠款）。为了鼓励多样化的计划，我们要求支持两名研究员（博士）谁是在研究生研究的第一年（pgy 0），以及两名研究员谁已经完成了他们的居住医学院（pgy 5）。这次更新建议在整个培训过程中强调疼痛的神经科学。每个教师导师都积极资助，从事年轻研究人员的教育，并致力于跨学科合作。该计划包括课程和指导研究经验，在至少两个科学领域是由合成：1）综合研究项目，2）校外资助申请，和3）论文的写作和出版。培训目标是：1）在疼痛的神经科学中建立一个增强的基础; 2）产生广泛的疼痛概念，包括但不限于神经生物学，认知，情感，行为和社会过程; 3）发展与其他学科的科学家沟通，网络和合作的技能;和4）设计和进行综合疼痛研究项目。每位研究员将由两名核心教师合作指导，他们在以下领域具有不同的疼痛研究专业知识：1）神经科学，2）临床研究和3）行为或社会科学。项目教师横跨医学、护理和公共卫生学院。我们的目标是准备下一代的疼痛科学家领导跨学科的研究团队，将创新地解决使用变革性的研究范式疼痛的问题。
