DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Venous and arterial thrombotic diseases strike about two million Americans each year. Previously, academic institutions have been the source of insights into the pathogenesis and novel therapies for these disorders. With the recent trends of Hematology trainees toward careers in oncology and stem cell biology, it is crucial to continue to develop a pipeline of future investigators in the area of thrombosis and hemostasis. The goal of this multidisciplinary training program is to train a group of bright, young postdoctoral fellows to conduct independent and state-of-the-art basic and/or clinical research involving the molecular pathogenesis and treatment of disorders of thrombosis or hemostasis. All trainees will receive core instruction in the normal and abnormal physiology of hemostasis, including the roles of platelets, coagulation factors, fibrinolysis and endothelial cells. To serve as the basis for the subsequent research studies, coursework and mentoring will ensure an understanding of the principles of genetics, biochemistry, cell biology, molecular biology, epidemiology and statistics. Although the training will be tailored to the trainees interests, based on the strengths of the faculty in this Program, three areas will receive particular emphasis. 1) Animal models of vascular thrombosis and hemorrhage will be used to dissect crucial pathophysiologic mechanisms, to test novel therapies and to identify modifying genes. 2) Shear stress and bioengineering. Blood flow and shear stress have important affects on the physiology of thrombus formation, and the principles of rheology will be studied. Established systems of intravital microscopy, parallel plate flow chambers and cone and plate viscometers will be used to characterize molecules, gone regulation and signaling events participating in thrombus formation. 3) Clinical research in epidemiology, design and analysis. This latter component will be the cornerstone of future translational research efforts. A major strength of this program is the successful bridging and collaborations of our basic (bioengineers, hematologists, geneticists, biochemists, cell biologists) and clinical research faculty (hematologists, clinical and genetic epidemiologists, statisticians). Superior mentorship will be emphasized, and plans are in place to teach and evaluate the mentoring abilities of the trainees. Finally, a comprehensive strategy is in place for recruiting underrepresented minorities.

描述（由申请人提供）： 静脉和动脉血栓性疾病每年袭击约200万美国人。 以前，学术机构一直是这些疾病的发病机制和新疗法的见解来源。 随着血液学受训人员最近的趋势，在肿瘤学和干细胞生物学的职业生涯，这是至关重要的，继续发展未来的研究人员在血栓形成和止血领域的管道。 这个多学科培训计划的目标是培养一批聪明，年轻的博士后研究员进行独立和国家的最先进的基础和/或临床研究，涉及血栓形成或止血疾病的分子发病机制和治疗。所有学员将接受止血的正常和异常生理学的核心指导，包括血小板、凝血因子、纤维蛋白溶解和内皮细胞的作用。 作为后续研究的基础，课程和指导将确保遗传学，生物化学，细胞生物学，分子生物学，流行病学和统计学的原理的理解。虽然培训将根据学员的兴趣，根据教师在本计划的优势，三个领域将得到特别强调。1)血管血栓形成和出血的动物模型将被用于解剖关键的病理生理机制，测试新的治疗方法和鉴定修饰基因。2)剪应力与生物工程。 血流和切应力对血栓形成的生理过程有重要影响，并将研究其流变学原理。将使用已建立的活体显微镜、平行板流动室以及锥板粘度计系统来表征参与血栓形成的分子、gone调节和信号传导事件。3)流行病学、设计和分析的临床研究。 后一个组成部分将是未来翻译研究工作的基石。 该计划的主要优势是我们的基础（生物工程师，血液学家，遗传学家，生物化学家，细胞生物学家）和临床研究教师（血液学家，临床和遗传流行病学家，统计学家）的成功桥接和合作。 将强调上级指导，并制定计划 教导和评估学员的辅导能力。 最后，为招聘代表性不足的少数群体制定了一项全面战略。
