PROJECT SUMMARY This application is for the 3rd competitive period of this Training Program, the sole training program in lung science in Columbia University. The 2nd competitive period was highly successful. We more than doubled trainee recruitment from the 1st cycle. We were successful with our emphasis in recruiting women. A major emphasis in this cycle will be to enhance Diversity in the trainee and mentor pools. A majority of our graduates placed in competitive faculty positions at major academic centers and were awarded competitive funding. We will continue our high standard of training for promising MD, or PhD (or equivalent) postdocs to prepare them for academic careers in lung science. Main features of the Program are: mentored training in research, exposure to multiple courses in basic and translational science in pulmonology, and to multiple courses in career development and scientific conduct. Research areas span a wide range of pulmonary disciplines including basic and translational science of Acute Lung Injury (ALI), Lung Development, Asthma/COPD and Lung Vascular Biology. New training directions include stem and pluripotential cell biology, precision medicine and genomics. We almost doubled our pool of world class mentors, several being innovators in their fields. Research facilities are mainly centered in the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University. Fewer than 2% of applicants are selected from a competitive pool of applicants after review of their credentials and interviews with the members of the Program’s Executive Committee. The Program will continue to be selective, of high quality and inclusive of under-represented minorities.

项目摘要 此申请是本培训计划的第三个竞争阶段，是肺的唯一培训计划 在哥伦比亚大学学习科学。第二阶段的比赛非常成功。我们比以前 从第一个周期开始招募受训人员。我们在招聘女性方面取得了成功。一个主要 本周期的重点将是加强学员和导师库的多样性。我们的大多数毕业生 被安排在主要学术中心的竞争性教师职位，并获得了竞争性资金。我们 我将继续我们的高标准培训有前途的医学博士，或博士（或同等学历）博士后，以准备他们 肺部科学的学术生涯。该方案的主要特点是：研究方面的指导培训， 接触多门课程的基础和转化科学在肺病，并在多个课程， 职业发展和科学行为。研究领域涵盖广泛的肺学科 包括急性肺损伤（ALI）、肺发育、哮喘/COPD的基础和转化科学， 肺血管生物学。新的培训方向包括干细胞和多能细胞生物学，精密医学 和基因组学。我们的世界级导师库几乎翻了一番，其中有几位是各自领域的创新者。 研究机构主要集中在哥伦比亚的Vagelos内外科医学院 大学只有不到2%的申请人是在审查了他们的申请后从竞争激烈的申请人中挑选出来的。 资格证书和与该计划执行委员会成员的面谈。该计划将继续 有选择性、高质量和包容代表性不足的少数群体。
