Abstract The primary objective of this T32 renewal proposal is to continue the University of Minnesota (UMN) Pediatric Endocrinology Program's tradition of guiding pediatric endocrinology fellows into academic careers, by providing intensive training in basic, translational, patient-oriented, or education science. Our secondary objective is to provide an environment that will facilitate the successful advancement of women into academic careers. The program has been highly successful in achieving its goals. From its inception in 2004 through the summer of 2019, we will have graduated 11 fellows from the 3 year training program, with an additional 3 in training. Nine of our 11 graduates are women, and 7 currently have University faculty appointments. Two are Associate Professors one is expected be promoted to Professor within the next couple years. Our goal at last renewal was to increase the diversity of our trainees, which we achieved by recruiting both an Hispanic and an Africa American fellow. Fellows are selected based on a demonstrated desire to pursue research training. They may follow a clinical/translational, a basic science, or a medical education path, and are expected to obtain a master's degree to formally and rigorously prepare them for a scholarly career. We work closely with incoming fellows to join their research interests with available opportunities and experienced mentors who can support their training and provide guidance for advancement to the next phase of their academic careers. The core group of senior faculty mentors are well established investigators, selected for their ability to impart a culture of responsible, rigorous, and robust science, as is the tradition of the UMN. Numerous and varied research opportunities are available. The program has particular research strengths in the critical public health domains of diabetes, obesity, and metabolism. Members of the Division of Pediatric Endocrinology enjoy a strong tradition of scientific collaboration with other divisions within the Department of Pediatrics, other departments within the UMN, and other institutions including the Mayo Clinic. This provides fellows with a rich environment for scientific collaboration. The program trains physician scientists in the spectrum of skills necessary to be well-grounded in the fundamental underpinnings of their research area by the completion of fellowship so they are ready to enter a junior faculty academic research position.

抽象的 此 T32 更新提案的主要目标是继续明尼苏达大学 (UMN) 儿科 内分泌学项目引导儿科内分泌学研究员进入学术生涯的传统， 提供基础、转化、以患者为导向或教育科学方面的强化培训。我们的中学 目标是提供一个有利于妇女成功晋升学术的环境 职业生涯。该计划在实现其目标方面非常成功。自2004年成立以来，经过 2019 年夏天，我们将有 11 名学员从为期 3 年的培训计划中毕业，另外 3 名学员将在 训练。我们的 11 名毕业生中有 9 名是女性，其中 7 名目前担任大学教员。两个是 副教授预计在未来几年内晋升为教授。我们的最终目标 更新是为了增加我们学员的多样性，我们通过招募西班牙裔和白人来实现这一目标。 非裔美国同胞。研究员的选择是基于对进行研究培训的明确愿望。 他们可能遵循临床/转化、基础科学或医学教育道路，并预计 获得硕士学位，为他们的学术生涯正式而严格地做好准备。我们密切合作 即将到来的研究员通过可用的机会和经验丰富的导师加入他们的研究兴趣，他们可以 支持他们的培训并为他们进入下一阶段的学术生涯提供指导。这 高级教师导师的核心团队是成熟的研究人员，他们是根据他们传授知识的能力而选择的 负责任、严谨和稳健的科学文化，这是UMN的传统。数量众多且多种多样 提供研究机会。该项目在关键公共卫生领域具有特殊的研究优势 糖尿病、肥胖和新陈代谢领域。儿科内分泌科成员享有 与儿科、其他部门内的其他部门进行科学合作的悠久传统 UMN 内的部门以及包括梅奥诊所在内的其他机构。这为同学们提供了丰富的 科学合作的环境。该计划对医师科学家进行一系列技能培训 必须通过完成以下任务，在其研究领域的基本基础上打下坚实的基础 奖学金，以便他们准备好进入初级教职学术研究职位。
