PROJECT SUMMARY Advances in basic science and technology are occurring at an unprecedented pace. Training the next generation of vision scientists in how to use this knowledge to create new clinical and public health interventions is critical toward reducing the frequency and severity of blindness, a major public fear with devastating individual and societal costs. Unfortunately, ophthalmologists often lack the background to envision how to use recent advances in basic and clinical research to improve patient care, and visual scientists often lack the clinical perspective to identify gaps in patient care that could guide their research. This application proposes to create an institutional K12 mentored experience at the Oregon Health & Science University (OHSU) for junior clinician scientist faculty who are in their first few years out of training. This program's overall goal is to prepare these promising individuals for successful, independent academic and scientific careers in vision science research by providing didactic education and intensive mentored research experience in a multidisciplinary environment. The vision research and training environment at OHSU is highly collaborative and interdisciplinary, with strong programmatic support in translation of research from bench to bedside in areas such as gene therapy, molecular genetics, drug development, clinical trials, ophthalmic imaging, animal model development and biomedical informatics. The university has top educational programs in clinical ophthalmology and basic visual science, and has been ranked in the top 5 nationally in NEI- supported research by the Blue Ridge Institute for Medical Research for the past several years. This training program will fill an important gap in education; currently there are no programs at OHSU (or north of San Francisco and west of Chicago) which support the training of clinician-scientists in visual science and ophthalmology. Specifically, we propose a program that will support two K12 recipients at any given time, at different career stages, chosen by an Advisory Committee. Training will consist of four key components: (1) Individualized research projects with mentors and collaborators, (2) A didactic course in the fundamentals of basic, clinical, and translational vision science and access to clinical research programs through the Oregon Clinical & Translational Research Institute (OCTRI), such as the Human Investigations Program (HIP) and Master of Clinical Research Program, (3) Regular research seminars hosted by program faculty and the ophthalmology department, and (4) Training in responsible conduct of research. We believe that this program will provide clinical perspective to trainees with existing backgrounds in basic science, and basic science background to trainees with existing backgrounds in clinical ophthalmology. OHSU is a setting where rigorous training in basic and clinical research through this K12 program will provide promising junior clinician scientist faculty members with the support and background to allow them to realize their career goals of becoming independent vision scientists, clinicians and educators.

项目摘要 基础科学和技术正在以前所未有的速度进步。培训下 一代视觉科学家如何利用这些知识创造新的临床和公共卫生 干预措施对于减少失明的频率和严重程度至关重要，失明是公众的主要恐惧， 造成巨大的个人和社会代价。不幸的是，眼科医生往往缺乏背景知识， 设想如何利用基础和临床研究的最新进展来改善病人护理， 科学家们往往缺乏临床的视角来确定病人护理中的差距，从而指导他们的研究。这 一份申请建议在俄勒冈州健康与科学学院创建一个机构K12辅导体验 大学（OHSU）为初级临床医生科学家教师谁是在他们的头几年的培训。这 该计划的总体目标是为这些有前途的人做好准备，以获得成功，独立的学术和 通过提供教学教育和密集的指导研究，促进视觉科学研究的科学事业 在多学科环境中工作。在OHSU的视觉研究和培训环境是高度 协作和跨学科，在翻译研究从板凳强大的方案支持， 在基因治疗、分子遗传学、药物开发、临床试验、眼科等领域的临床应用 成像、动物模型开发和生物医学信息学。这所大学有一流的教育项目 在临床眼科和基础视觉科学，并已在全国排名前5位的NEI- 在过去的几年里，蓝岭医学研究所支持了这项研究。本次培训 该计划将填补教育的重要空白;目前在OHSU（或San Francisco北部）没有计划 弗朗西斯科和芝加哥西部），支持临床科学家在视觉科学和 眼科具体来说，我们提出了一个计划，将支持两个K12收件人在任何给定的时间， 不同的职业阶段，由咨询委员会选择。培训将包括四个主要部分：（1） 与导师和合作者的个性化研究项目，（2）基础知识的教学课程 基础、临床和转化视觉科学，并通过俄勒冈州获得临床研究项目 临床和转化研究所（OCTRI），如人类研究计划（HIP）和 临床研究硕士课程，（3）定期研究研讨会主办的程序教师和 眼科，和（4）在负责任的研究行为的培训。我们相信这个项目 将提供临床的观点，以学员与现有的背景，在基础科学和基础科学 背景培训对象为具有临床眼科学背景的学员。OHSU是一个严格的环境， 通过这个K12计划进行的基础和临床研究培训将为有前途的初级临床科学家提供 教师的支持和背景，让他们实现自己的职业目标，成为 独立的视觉科学家、临床医生和教育工作者。
