DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This T32 Vascular Surgery Education and Research Training (VascTrain) Program is designed to train vascular surgery residents in the fundamentals of basic and clinical cardiovascular research. This will be accomplished using a training committee comprised of a principal trainer and a team of associate trainers in a closely supervised training program. The training scheme is based on interactions between the training committee and the trainee in the form of weekly training research sessions. The VascTrain Program is integrated into a Vascular Surgery residency program where all residents participate in a 2 year curriculum designed to provide research training. Funding for 3 positions is sought to support trainees who will enter the program after 3 years of vascular surgery or surgery residency. A few PhD post-doctoral fellows will be accepted into this program. The research areas of focus are based on cardiovascular diseases, its consequences and its treatments. General areas of investigation include the pathogenesis and treatment of intimal hyperplasia, tissue engineered autologous conduits, tissue ischemia induced angiogenesis and wound healing, computational analysis of aortic aneurysm progress and rupture, cardiovascular imaging, epidemiology of cardiovascular disease, and pharmacotherapeutics. The program introduces a multidisciplinary approach to vascular biology research and a dedicated approach to clinical/translational research.

描述(由申请者提供)：该T32血管外科教育和研究培训(VascTrain)计划旨在培训血管外科住院医生基础和临床心血管研究的基础知识。这将通过一个由一名首席培训员和一组助理培训员组成的培训委员会在严密监督的培训方案中完成。培训计划的基础是培训委员会与受训者之间以每周培训研究会议的形式进行的互动。VascTrain计划被整合到血管外科住院医生计划中，所有住院医生都参加了旨在提供研究培训的两年制课程。寻求3个职位的资金，以支持将在血管外科或外科住院医生工作3年后进入该计划的实习生。一些博士后研究员将被这个项目录取。重点研究领域是心血管疾病、其后果及其治疗。主要研究领域包括内膜增生的发病机制和治疗、组织工程自体管道、组织缺血诱导的血管生成和伤口愈合、主动脉瘤进展和破裂的计算分析、心血管成像、心血管疾病流行病学和药物治疗。该项目引入了血管生物学研究的多学科方法和临床/转化性研究的专门方法。
