PROJECT SUMMARY This proposal aims to continue and improve upon a residency training research track with the explicit goal of recruiting MD/PhD and medical graduates with a track record in conducting research. The program provides early exposure to clinical research in psychiatry to stimulate interest in translational research among our basic science trainees. In addition, research track residents have 14.5 months of protected time for an independent research project. These months are augmented by intensive mentoring, overseen by the PIs, functioning as “meta-mentors,” as well as a customized curriculum focused on ethics, statistics, research design, and principles of translational research. All this is attained while meeting ACGME clinical training requirements so that graduates are board-eligible in psychiatry. This approach is intended to remedy the current state of affairs wherein MD/PhDs often are faced with “re-starting” their research after a hiatus created by the need for clinical training. We already have early evidence that our 4-year program permits research track residents to “jump start” their research career, rendering them better prepared for research fellowships and the K-award process, ultimately setting them up for successful careers as independent investigators. As an added bonus, the training infrastructure established by the research track program provides an opportunity for multiple “on-ramps” for residents without prior research experience to explore research and develop basic research skills. Through this program we anticipate enhancing the pipeline of physician-scientists prepared to conduct translational research in psychiatry, a key goal of the NIMH.

项目摘要 该提案旨在继续和改进住院医师培训研究轨道，其明确目标是 招募在进行研究方面有良好记录的MD/PhD和医学毕业生。该计划提供 早期接触精神病学的临床研究，以激发我们的基础研究人员对转化研究的兴趣。 科学实习生此外，研究轨道居民有14.5个月的保护时间为独立的 研究项目。这几个月还得到强化辅导，由PI监督， “元导师”，以及一个定制的课程，侧重于道德，统计，研究设计，和原则 translational translational research翻译研究所有这些都是在满足ACGME临床培训要求的同时实现的， 毕业生都有资格进入精神病学委员会这种做法是为了补救目前的状况 其中MD/PhD经常面临着“重新开始”他们的研究后，由于临床需要而产生的中断， 训练我们已经有早期的证据表明，我们的4年计划允许研究轨道居民“跳跃开始” 他们的研究生涯，使他们更好地准备研究奖学金和K奖的过程， 最终使他们成为成功的独立调查员。作为额外的奖励，培训 研究轨道计划建立的基础设施为多个“入口”提供了机会， 没有先前研究经验的居民探索研究和发展基本的研究技能。通过这个 该计划，我们预计加强管道的医生，科学家准备进行转化研究 这是NIMH的一个关键目标。
