Abstract Physician-scientists play key roles in discoveries and the ensuing translation of research advances into improved health care for patients, a process central to the NIH Roadmap. Therefore, dedicated and intensive research education is essential to developing the next generation of clinician-scientists. Otolaryngologists are trained and primed to undertake research in the NIDCD mission areas of hearing, balance, voice, communication disorders, taste, smell, and related cellular biology. The goal of this training grant is to provide research experiences at key stages of medical training. Specifically, we propose to support: 1) 9-month predoctoral research experience for two medical students interested in otolaryngology and the communication sciences, to encourage pursuit of residencies that include research training and, ultimately, academic careers; and 2) 18 months of research education for otolaryngology residents to define and develop a research interest to be continued as an academic faculty member. Preceptors have been selected from the internationally-recognized faculty at the University of Michigan, consisting of basic science, translational and clinical researchers with primary appointments in the departments of Otolaryngology-Head & Neck Surgery, Neurology, Psychiatry, Psychology, Anesthesiology, Family Medicine, Internal Medicine, Pediatrics, Human Genetics and Mechanical Engineering. Major focuses of research include the mechanisms of hearing loss and hearing restoration, head and neck oncology, tissue bioengineering, nerve regeneration, 3D printing, applied cochlear implant research and health services for deaf and hard of hearing patients. Each trainee will have academic otolaryngology faculty as either a primary or a secondary mentor. Emphasis will be placed on project design/translational potential, multidisciplinary collaboration, grantsmanship, manuscript development, and presentation of research proposals and findings. Opportunities will be provided to attend extramural or intramural conferences or educational courses relevant to the trainee's chosen research discipline. The program benefits from the well-equipped facilities of the Department of Otolaryngology-Head and Neck Surgery and the Kresge Hearing Research Institute as well as our broader university infrastructure. The Michigan Institute for Clinical and Health Research (MICHR), funded by a Clinical Translational Science Award, also provides outstanding training opportunities as well as resources in clinical research methodology. In addition, the University of Michigan has extensive investments in both clinical and basic research in terms of numerous core facilities, and major cross-departmental centers.
