Neuroimmunology is the interdisciplinary study of interactions between the immune system and the central nervous system in health and disease. The Ohio State Wexner Medical Center is a unique training environment in this context because the faculty mentors of the proposed training program have expertise that covers all major aspects of basic and clinical Neuroimmunology. The goal of this training grant is to provide comprehensive training across key areas of relevance within the field of neuroimmunology including neurotrauma, autoimmunity, stress, neural development, aging, and biological rhythms. Students will enter the program either soon before or immediately after successful completion of their candidacy exam. These students will have an opportunity to work in a highly collaborative research environment with established mentors and clinical partnerships. Thus, we are unique nationally in terms of crossing the boundaries of traditional neuroscience and immunology training, and therefore are positioned to offer students an exceptional training experience in Neuroimmunology that will extend beyond the conventional training experiences that currently exist within “umbrella” graduate training programs. Trainees will engage in unique program-specific learning and professional development experiences including course-work, clinical experiences/mentorship, and professional networking with scholars in the Neuroimmunology field. These trainees will be a benefit to the national neuroscience and immunology communities based on their advanced graduate training experience that is augmented by a translational experience with the clinical pairing. Our TPNI students will be positioned to excel as post-doctoral fellows and will be competitive for future faculty positions.

神经免疫学是免疫系统和中枢神经系统之间相互作用的跨学科研究。 神经系统健康与疾病俄亥俄州韦克斯纳医疗中心是一个独特的培训 在这种背景下的环境，因为拟议培训计划的教师导师拥有专业知识， 涵盖基础和临床神经免疫学的所有主要方面。这项培训补助金的目标是提供 在神经免疫学领域的相关关键领域进行全面培训，包括 神经创伤、自身免疫、应激、神经发育、衰老和生物节律。学生将进入 计划之前不久或之后立即成功完成他们的候选人资格考试。这些 学生将有机会在一个高度协作的研究环境中工作， 导师和临床伙伴关系。因此，我们在跨越国界方面是独一无二的。 传统的神经科学和免疫学培训，因此定位于为学生提供一个特殊的 在神经免疫学的培训经验，将超出传统的培训经验， 目前存在于“伞式”研究生培训方案中。学员将参与独特的方案具体 学习和专业发展经验，包括课程工作，临床经验/指导， 并与神经免疫学领域的学者建立专业网络。这些受训人员将有利于 国家神经科学和免疫学社区基于他们先进的研究生培训经验 通过临床配对的翻译经验来增强。我们的TPNI学生将被定位为 优秀的博士后研究员，并将为未来的教师职位的竞争力。
