DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Rapid introduction of basic science discoveries into clinical fields requires close collaboration of basic and clinician scientists. Accomplishing this n otolaryngology requires a multidisciplinary approach to better define and treat the many disorders of the head and neck. Residency programs today offer limited research training for otolaryngologists, but few become independent investigators. In contrast, the basic sciences postdoctoral training offers little exposure to the clinical setting, making translational research difficult. The goal of this application is to provide research training in otolaryngology and its related sciences. Support is requested for in-depth training for 1) residents, 2) postdoctoral fellows, 3) predoctoral students and 4) short-term medical students. All trainees will receive an interactive basic research experience with ongoing exposure to and interaction of trainees in the clinical setting through conferences and courses. The pre- and postdoctoral trainees will have a 24-month block of training. Research training for MDs will begin in medical school with students doing short-term (3-month) projects and continue through the residency program with a 2-year block midway through the clinical training. One resident will be admitted each year into this research track. Early introduction and continued research involvement throughout the residency will increase our ability to attract academically oriented faculty members into the field, with backgrounds to become independent investigators. This cross-field exposure will enhance the experience for trainees and promote clinical and basic science interactions as a faculty. A major strength of the program is drawing members of the faculty from a wide variety of departments of the School of Medicine and across the UC campuses involved in otolaryngology related research. This will enhance collaborative efforts in related fields of hearing, balance, smell, taste, speech, language and head and neck cancer. All faculty members have primary or secondary appointments within the Department of Otolaryngology, creating an ideal environment for translational research between basic and clinician scientists. Through this multidisciplinary approach to research training for different levels of trainees from a variety of fields, recruitment and retention of a research-oriented academic faculty involved in research into disorders of the ears, nose and throat will be increased.

描述(由申请人提供)：将基础科学发现快速引入临床领域需要基础和临床科学家的密切合作。要做到这一点，耳鼻喉科需要一个多学科的方法来更好地定义和治疗头部和颈部的许多疾病。如今，住院医师计划为耳鼻咽喉科医生提供的研究培训有限，但很少有人成为独立调查人员。相比之下，基础科学博士后培训很少接触临床环境，进行转化性研究 很难。这项申请的目标是提供耳鼻喉科及其相关科学的研究培训。要求对1)住院医师、2)博士后研究员、3)博士前学生和4)短期医学生进行深入培训。所有受训人员将通过会议和课程获得与受训人员在临床环境中持续接触和互动的互动基础研究体验。博士后和博士后实习生将接受为期24个月的培训。医学博士的研究培训将从医学院开始，学生进行短期(3个月)的项目，并在临床培训中途通过为期2年的住院医师计划继续进行。每年将有一名居民获准进入这一研究轨道。在整个实习期间的早期介绍和持续的研究参与将增加我们吸引以学术为导向的教职员工进入该领域的能力，这些教职员工具有成为独立调查人员的背景。这种跨领域的接触将增强受训者的体验，并促进临床和基础科学作为教员的互动。该项目的一个主要优势是吸引了来自医学院和加州大学校园内从事耳鼻喉科相关研究的多个部门的教职员工。这将加强在听力、平衡、嗅觉、味觉、言语、语言和头颈癌等相关领域的合作努力。所有教职员工都有耳鼻喉科的初级或二级职位，为基础和临床科学家之间的转化性研究创造了一个理想的环境。通过这种多学科方法，为来自不同领域的不同水平的受训人员进行研究培训，将增加对从事耳鼻喉疾病研究的以研究为导向的学术人员的招聘和保留。
