PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT The Postgraduate Training Program in Medical Imaging (PTPMI) provides recent doctoral graduates with research training in medical imaging technology as it pertains to normal and pathophysiological functions applied to nuclear medicine (PET and SPECT), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), Optical Imaging, Image Processing and Artificial Intelligence (AI). The importance of the field of Medical Imaging Sciences has been recognized by the establishment of the National Institute of Biomedical Imaging and Bioengineering (NIBIB). And within medical imaging science, imaging research and technology and more recently AI have revolutionized the practice of Radiology. Trainees may enter the field of medical imaging research after study of a curriculum that focuses directly on radiological science or after earning a doctoral degree in the physical sciences, mathematics, biophysics, or computer science. MDs with established professional interest in quantitative imaging research are also encouraged to apply. The PTPMI provides trainees an innovative training and strong background via customized and diverse mentoring as well as structured didactic courses and seminars, enabling graduates to critically evaluate the field and develop their own research ideas. Trainees participate in leading--‐edge research, with the opportunity to interact with a world--‐class multi-institutional faculty in a setting that combines the resources of the Harvard Medical School (HMS), and the Harvard--‐affiliated Teaching Hospitals. The rationale for this program is based on several factors: 1) the growing need for basic scientists with training in medical imaging sciences applied in modalities such as PET, SPECT, MR, CT and optical; 2) the availability of outstanding research programs that provide exciting opportunities for trainees in imaging technologies and AI; 3) the availability of cutting-edge facilities with commercial and prototype imaging systems; 4) an unusually strong and diverse group of mentors and, in addition, a faculty who provide additional expertise and extend the range of contacts available to trainees; and 5) long--‐standing, diverse collaborations, both within the Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) as well as HMS, other HMS--‐affiliated hospitals, Harvard University, and the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). PTPMI has been characterized over the past funding period by exceptionally strong outcomes in terms of inclusion and diversity with 32% of T32 trainees URM and 36% women, as well as in terms of career outcomes with 60% T32 alumni in academic positions and 40% in industrial R&D positions, all in areas directly related to NIBIB priorities in biomedical imaging and bioengineering technologies.

项目摘要 /摘要 医学成像研究生培训计划（PTPMI）为最近的博士毕业生提供了 医学成像技术的研究培训与正常和病理生理功能有关 应用于核医学（PET和SPECT），磁共振成像（MRI），光学成像，图像 处理和人工智能（AI）。医学成像科学领域的重要性一直是 由国家生物医学成像与生物工程研究所（Nibib）的建立认可。 在医学成像科学中，成像研究和技术以及最近的AI 彻底改变了放射学的实践。学员可以在学习后进入医学成像研究领域 直接关注放射科学或获得物理博士学位后的课程 科学，数学，生物物理学或计算机科学。具有既定专业兴趣的MD 还鼓励定量成像研究应用。 PTPMI通过定制和潜水员为受训者提供了创新的培训和强大的背景 指导以及结构化的教学课程和半小便，使毕业生能够批判性评估 范围并发展自己的研究思想。学员参加了领导---边缘研究， 与世界互动的机会---班级多机构教师在结合资源的环境中 哈佛医学院（HMS）和哈佛大学 - 贴有教学医院。 该计划的基本原理是基于几个因素：1）对基础科学家的日益增长的需求 以PET，SPECT，MR，CT和光学的方式应用的医学成像科学培训； 2） 出色的研究计划的可用性为受训者的成像提供了令人兴奋的机会 技术和人工智能； 3）具有商业和原型成像的尖端设施的可用性 系统； 4）一个异常强壮的导师团体，此外，还有一个提供的教师 额外的专业知识，并将可用的联系范围扩展到培训； 5）长---站长，潜水员 在马萨诸塞州综合医院（MGH）和HMS，其他HMS的合作 哈佛大学医院和马萨诸塞州理工学院（MIT）。 PTPMI在过去的融资期间以异常强劲的结果来表征 32％的T32学员URM和36％的女性以及职业生涯的包容性和多样性 在学术职位上有60％T32校友的成果，在工业研发职位上有40％ 与生物医学成像和生物工程技术中的nibiB优先级直接相关。
