Postdoctoral Training in Clinical Genetics Research

描述（由申请人提供）：本机构NRSA竞争性延续申请的目的是在爱荷华州大学（Ul）提供临床遗传护理方面的扩展博士后研究培训计划。该培训旨在为博士后研究员提供新的跨学科机会，以扩展他们在临床遗传护理研究中的知识和技能，重点是a）识别常见疾病，疾病症状或对治疗反应的基因组因素之间的关系，B）检查社区中的民族文化因素，个人，家庭和社区反应，以遗传疾病的风险和条件与遗传成分，该计划的目标是：1。准备在博士后水平的护士参与和领导跨学科的研究团队在调查临床基因组问题和干预措施，2。加强研究培训过程，加快进入一个研究生涯，是响应NIH路线图，3的优先事项。为学院实习生的研究合作和指导，4产生的机会。通过准备一批精通临床基因组问题识别和调查的研究人员，为基因组学和护理科学的进步做出贡献。具体目标将通过密集参与正在进行的教师研究，由受训人员进行研究，课程，参加研究研讨会和国家会议来实现;和出版，演示，研究传播，并与教师的grananecraft经验。该培训计划建立在Ul临床基因组学和护理研究的教师的研究优势之上。该奖学金培训计划补充了Ul现有的博士前和博士后机会，但不会重复该校园的其他培训机会。临床遗传学护理博士后培训提供了独特的机会，为临床遗传学护理学者的发展提供了研究培训，以发展科学知识，为个人和家庭的护理，遗传因素有助于常见的慢性健康疾病的风险，以及由一个或多个基因的改变引起的疾病。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this competing continuation application for an Institutional NRSA is to provide an expanded postdoctoral research training program in clinical genetic nursing at The University of Iowa (Ul). The training is designed to provide new interdisciplinary opportunities for postdoctoral fellows to extend their knowledge and skills in clinical genetic nursing research with an emphasis on a) identification of relationships among genomic factors in common diseases, disease symptoms, or response to treatments, b) examination of ethnocultural factors, individual, family, and community responses in communities, to genetic disease risk and conditions with genetic components, The program objectives are to: 1. Prepare nurses at the post-doctoral level to participate in and lead interdisciplinary research teams in investigating clinical genomic questions and interventions, 2. Enhance the research training process and accelerate entry into a research career that is responsive to priorities in the NIH Roadmap, 3. Generate opportunities for faculty-trainee research collaboration and mentorship, 4. Contribute to the advancement of genomic and nursing science by preparing a cadre of researchers who are skilled in the identification and investigation of clinical genomic problems. The specific objectives will be achieved through intensive participation in ongoing faculty research, conduct of research by the trainee, coursework, participation in research seminars and national conferences; and publication, presentation, research dissemination, and grantsmanship experiences with faculty. The training program builds on the research strengths of the faculty at Ul in clinical genomics and nursing research. This fellowship training program complements existing pre and post-doctoral opportunities at Ul, but does not duplicate other training opportunities on this campus. Clinical genetics nursing postdoctoral training provides unique opportunities for development of clinical genetic nursing scholars by providing research training required to develop scientific knowledge for care of individuals and families for whom genetic factors contribute to risk for common chronic health disorders, as well as disorders resulting from alterations in one or more genes.
