DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This T-32 Training application is anchored within the Indiana University School of Medicine, the principal School of the Indiana University Purdue University at Indianapolis (lUPUI). The proposed training program in Lung Immunobiology is provided by a multidisciplinary, highly collaborative group of established investigators and highly qualified and dedicated mentors. We have included in the training program classical elements of basic and clinical-translational, research, adding on developing novel technologies. These research skills will enable our trainees to accelerate the advancements in lung research and close the gaps in knowledge that prevented for so many decades the development of phenotypic characterization, effective preventive intervention, and disease- modifying or even curative druts for most patients with lung disease. Being led by Program Director who is a renowned physician scientist and experienced mentor who himself is a minority, and having direct support from an experienced Minority Advisory Board, this application demonstrates our commitment to the development of a successful training program for under-represented and minority scientists. The Program Director will obtain continuous advise and feedback regarding the operation of the Training Grant from several internal and one external committee, composed of leaders in academic medicine If funded, this program will provide the only research training program of pulmonary physicians and scientists in the state of Indiana, which has one of the highest incidence of chronic lung diseases in the country.

描述（由申请人提供）：此T-32培训申请锚定在印第安纳大学医学院，印第安纳大学普渡大学印第安纳波利斯分校（lUPUI）的校长学校。拟议的肺免疫生物学培训计划由一个多学科、高度协作的小组提供，该小组由成熟的研究人员和高素质、敬业的导师组成。我们在培训计划中纳入了基础研究和临床转化研究的经典要素，并增加了开发新技术的内容。这些研究技能将使我们的学员能够加速肺部研究的进展，并缩小几十年来阻碍大多数肺部疾病患者发展表型表征、有效预防干预、疾病修饰甚至治疗药物的知识差距。项目主管是一位著名的内科科学家，也是一位经验丰富的导师，他本人也是少数族裔，并得到了经验丰富的少数族裔顾问委员会的直接支持，这一申请表明了我们致力于为弱势群体和少数族裔科学家开发一个成功的培训项目。项目主任将从几个内部和一个外部委员会（由学术医学领导者组成）获得关于培训基金运作的持续建议和反馈。如果获得资助，该项目将提供印第安纳州唯一的肺病医生和科学家的研究培训项目，印第安纳州是美国慢性肺病发病率最高的州之一。
