Clinical Research Training Program

该提案概述了临床研究培训计划（CRTP）的发展，旨在提供 对有兴趣从事职业的优秀研究生研究员和初级教师进行高度集中的培训 临床生物医学研究。该计划整合了来自四个紧密联系的机构的资源， 长岛（斯托尼布鲁克大学医学中心[牵头机构]，温斯洛普大学医院， 布鲁克海文国家实验室和退伍军人事务医疗中心/北港）开发一个单一的培训 临床学者的环境。该计划为期两年，有一个密集的教学培训期， 第一年和21个月的指导研究，最终发展的研究 提议讲授式教学包括流行病学、生物统计学、分子生物学、生物学和生物学等课程。 医学/分子遗传学，研究机会介绍，实验临床研究， 流行病学研究和临床试验，数据管理与信息学，法律的，伦理和监管 医学研究中的问题和研究建议的制定。指导研究将是 在六个高度结构化的跨学科中心（糖尿病/代谢，心血管疾病， 感染/伤口愈合、神经精神疾病、癌症、临床结局和流行病学 研究），旨在确保研究经验的一致性和成功。成功完成 该培训将最终获得公共卫生研究生课程的临床研究证书 (Year 1），以及，对于那些谁承担额外的课程所需的学员，公共硕士 将授予评估科学的健康学位。临床研究培训计划的目标 是准备参与者成功地竞争研究资金，并建立职业生涯， 学术中心的独立临床研究者。

This proposal outlines the development of a Clinical ResearchTraining Program (CRTP) designed to offer highly focused training to outstanding postgraduate fellows and junior faculty interested in pursuing careers in clinical biomedical research. The program integrates resources from four closely-affiliated institutions on Long Island (Stony Brook University Medical Center [Lead Institution], Winthrop University Hospital, Brookhaven National Laboratory, and Veterans Affairs Medical Center/Northport) to develop a single training environment for Clinical Scholars. The program spans two years with an intensive didactic training period in the first year and a 21-month period of mentored research culminating in the development of a research proposal. The didactic teaching includes courses in Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Molecular Medicine/Molecular Genetics, Introduction to Research Opportunities, Experimental Clinical Research, Epidemiological Studies and Clinical Trials, Data Management & Informatics, Legal, Ethical and Regulatory Issues in Medical Research, and Development of a Research Proposal. Mentored research will be completed in six highly-structured, interdisciplinary Centers (Diabetes/Metabolism, Cardiovascular Disease, Infection/Wound Healing, Neuropsychiatric Disorders, Cancer, and Clinical Outcomes and Epidemiology Research), designed to ensure uniformity and success of the research experience. Successful completion of the training will culminate in a Certificate in Clinical Research from the Graduate Program in Public Health (Year 1), and, for those trainees who undertake the additional coursework required, a Master of Public Health degree in Evaluative Sciences will be conferred. The goal of the Clinical Research Training Program is to prepare participants to compete successfully for research funding, and establish careers as independent clinical investigators at academic centers.
