DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Rochester has a long history of training physician-scientists, with numerous alumni in leadership positions at academic medical centers. Fueled by a ten-year $550 million strategic plan initiated in 1997, the Medical Center is enjoying unprecedented growth with new space for 80 research-intensive faculty organized into highly interactive groups. The combination of a rigorous and innovative educational curriculum with a rich research environment staffed by superlative faculty provides outstanding opportunities for the training of physician-scientists in biomedical sciences and for its meaningful translation to patient care. To capitalize on these opportunities, the University has committed its MD/PhD program to an expansion, which began two years ago with the matriculation of three additional highly qualified students. As evidence of our continuous effort to create the optimal training experience, we have instituted a new administrative structure that provides greater oversight of the program and an advisory system that pairs students with career physician-scientists for their entire tenure in the program. Improved integration of medical and graduate curricula has been achieved by increasing the time available for graduate work in all phases of training, creating MSTP specific problem-based learning groups, and introducing Scientific Reasoning in Medicine, a class for students in the first two program years. Moreover, rigorous MD/PhD specific curricula have been instituted for all PhD programs, including new programs in Biomedical Engineering, Epidemiology, Health Services Research, and Biostatistics and Computational Biology. Coupled with the University of Rochester's commitment, funds from this renewal will ensure that our most qualified participants will develop the skills and insights to initiate and lead the translation from laboratory bench or specialized analyses to patient care during this dynamic era of biomedical research.

描述（由申请人提供）：罗切斯特大学有着悠久的培养医生科学家的历史，在学术医疗中心担任领导职务的校友众多。 在1997年启动的一项为期十年的5.5亿美元战略计划的推动下，医疗中心正在享受前所未有的增长，为80名研究密集型教师提供了新的空间，这些教师被组织成高度互动的团体。 严格和创新的教育课程与丰富的研究环境相结合，配备了最高级的教师，为生物医学科学的医生科学家的培训及其对患者护理的有意义的翻译提供了绝佳的机会。 为了利用这些机会，该大学已承诺其MD/PhD课程的扩展，两年前开始与另外三名高素质学生的入学。 作为我们不断努力创造最佳培训体验的证据，我们已经建立了一个新的行政结构，为该计划提供更大的监督，并建立了一个咨询系统，将学生与职业医生-科学家在该计划的整个任期内配对。 医学和研究生课程的整合得到了改善，增加了研究生工作在培训的所有阶段的时间，创建MSTP特定的基于问题的学习小组，并引入医学科学推理，在前两个方案年的学生类。 此外，严格的MD/PhD特定课程已经制定了所有博士课程，包括生物医学工程，流行病学，卫生服务研究，生物统计学和计算生物学的新课程。 再加上罗切斯特大学的承诺，从这次更新的资金将确保我们最合格的参与者将发展的技能和见解，发起和领导从实验室工作台或专业分析翻译到病人护理在这个生物医学研究的动态时代。
