Training To Provide the Knowledge, Skills, and Culture To the Next Generation of Cardiovascular Scientists

项目摘要 心血管疾病仍然是美国的头号死因。有效 未来开发新的诊断和治疗方法来识别和治疗心血管疾病， 需要高度协作和多学科的团队组成的最好的基础，翻译和 临床研究者。我们拥有高度协作和多学科的科学基础设施， 已创建支持转化心血管研究，教育和培训。的 T32应用程序的导师都是各自领域的知名科学家，对培训充满热情， 并认识到最终需要优化培训和保留下一个人才的两个未满足的需求 最好的心血管研究者的一代。首先，它对心血管系统至关重要。 研究人员必须具备多学科技能，并在高度跨学科，协作和 翻译团队有效地将知识从板凳转移到床边，转移到社区， 回来了第二，为了获得最佳的生产力，以改善心血管健康， 因此，必须利用整个科学工作队伍中最优秀的人的贡献。在 在俄亥俄州州立大学，我们的目标是成为一个模型1）有影响力，协作和 转化心血管研究和2）建立未来的女性科学领导者，以扩大 我们最好的调查员的素质我们提出的T32将在博士前课程中解决这些目标。 这是实现这些目标的最佳时期。因此，该博士前T32计划 有两个目标： 1.提供多方面的心血管研究培训，协同工作， 多学科团队将促进科学发现的有效翻译， 人体健康 2.向所有受训者提供提高妇女地位的培训，改善妇女文化 成功，并促进妇女在独立的科学事业中的保留， 心血管研究，从而提高质量的研究人员和领导者的数量。

PROJECT SUMMARY Cardiovascular disease remains the number one cause of death in the United States. The efficient development of future novel diagnostics and therapies to identify and treat cardiovascular disease will require highly collaborative and multi-disciplinary teams consisting of the best basic, translational and clinical investigators. We have a highly collaborative and multi-disciplinary scientific infrastructure that has been created to support translational cardiovascular research, education, and training. The mentors on this T32 application are all established scientists in their field, have a passion for training, and recognize two unmet needs that will ultimately be required to optimally train and retain the next generation of the best cardiovascular investigators. First, it will be essential for cardiovascular researchers to possess multi-disciplinary skills and work in highly inter-disciplinary, collaborative and translational teams to efficiently move knowledge from the bench to the bedside, to the community and back. Second, in order to obtain optimal productivity towards improving cardiovascular health of the population, it is essential to utilize the contributions from the best of the entire scientific workforce. At The Ohio State University, our goal is to become a model 1) for impactful, collaborative and translational cardiovascular research and 2) for establishing future women scientific leaders to expand the quality of our best investigators. Our proposed T32 will address these goals during the predoctoral period when training towards these goals is most impactful. This Predoctoral T32 Program therefore has 2 goals: 1. To provide multi-faceted cardiovascular research training to work in collaborative, multidisciplinary teams that will facilitate efficient translation of scientific findings to improve human health. 2. To provide training for the advancement of women to all trainees, improve the culture for women to succeed, and advance the retention of women in independent scientific careers in cardiovascular research thus enhancing the numbers of quality researchers and leaders.
