Learners to LeAders in benign Urology, benign Nephrology, and non-Cancer Hematology

项目摘要 计划概述 这是一个单一的整合U2C/TL1培训计划(良性泌尿外科学员至领导者，良性 肾病学和非癌症血液学[启动]计划)，寻求整合、扩展和转变 北加州的肾脏、泌尿学和血液学(KUH)生物医学研究培训。以4为基数 拥有杰出研究资源和培训成就的机构-加州大学旧金山分校 旧金山大学(UCSF)、加州大学伯克利分校(UC Berkeley)、加州大学戴维斯分校(UC Davis)、 和斯坦福大学-我们提出了一种创新的方法来培训22名(4名博士后和18名博士后)实习生 每年跨越成人和儿科KUH学科。我们将寻找和招募最有前途和最多样化的 一组受训人员，使他们能够进行KUH研究，并为这些发射计划受训人员提供 优秀的基础、翻译或临床研究培训。我们的总体目标是建立统一的培训 促进跨学科合作和培训最有前途的初级调查人员的计划 横跨我们的四个机构。因此，我们预计发射计划将使具备以下知识的科学家毕业- 受过培训，能够成功竞争研究资金，并能够创造性地和协作地思考 产生新颖而有影响力的科学。发射计划将由U2C多PI(博士伊莱恩)领导 KU、马歇尔·斯托勒和凯瑟琳·坂本)以及TL1多派(徐志远博士、菲利普·比奇博士、 和Mark Walters)，他们每个人都在研究和研究培训方面拥有互补的专业知识 肾病学、泌尿学和血液学的学科我们拥有的世界级培训教师 被选入我们计划的人不仅是基于他们自己的科学和学术成就，而且 以及他们在指导和对培训的承诺方面的记录。发射计划是仿照 在我们的机构中，有几个非常成功的培训计划，培养了无数优秀的 来自不同学科的科学家使用团队科学的方法。

PROJECT ABSTRACT Program Overview This is a single consolidated U2C/TL1 training program (the Learners to LeAders in benign Urology, benign Nephrology, and non-Cancer Hematology [LAUNCH] Program) that seeks to integrate, expand, and transform kidney, urologic, and hematologic (KUH) biomedical research training in Northern California. Based at four institutions with outstanding research resources and training accomplishments—University of California San Francisco (UCSF), University of California Berkeley (UC Berkeley), University of California Davis (UC Davis), and Stanford University—we propose an innovative approach to train 22 (4 pre- and 18 post-doctoral) trainees annually across adult and pediatric KUH disciplines. We will identify and recruit the most promising and diverse group of trainees to enable them to conduct KUH research and provide these LAUNCH Program trainees with outstanding basic, translational, or clinical research training. Our overall goal is to establish a unified training program that promotes interdisciplinary collaboration and training of the most promising junior investigators across our four institutions. Thus, we expect that the LAUNCH Program will graduate scientists who are well- trained, able to compete successfully for research funding, and able to think creatively and collaboratively to generate novel and impactful science. The LAUNCH Program will be led by the U2C multi-PI’s (Drs. Elaine Ku, Marshall Stoller, and Kathleen Sakamoto) as well as the TL1 multi-PI’s (Drs. Chi-yuan Hsu, Philip Beachy, and Mark Walters), each of whom possess complementary expertise in research and research training within the disciplines of nephrology, urology, and hematology. The world-class training faculty whom we have included in our program were selected not only based on their own scientific and scholarly achievements but also their track record of mentorship and commitment to training. The LAUNCH Program is modeled after several highly-successful training programs at our institutions that have trained numerous exceptional scientists from a wide range of disciplines using a team science approach.
