NRSA Training Core

Einstein-Montefiore临床和转化研究所（ICTR）开发并支持 临床和翻译（C/T）教育和职业发展计划的高度整合的核心 研究，加快了我们的第一个CTSA赠款在2008年的资金。在我们相互联系和协调的 教育和职业发展计划，我们的创新博士临床研究（PCI） 发展成为一个不断增长和越来越有效的培训计划;这一新的应用程序将提供进一步的 增长和增强。我们新的NRSA培训核心应用程序的具体目标是：1）识别， 教育，支持和指导有才华的博士和MD-PhD候选人成为有影响力和成功的 临床/转化科学家; 2）鼓励和促进转化研究合作， 对受训者进行跨学科的共同指导，并采用新的方法来支持团队科学; 3）促进 一种负责任地对待所有研究的研究文化，严格地进行所有研究， 以支持其可重复性的方式进行研究; 4）严格评估并不断改进我们的预 博士后教育项目。我们的学生不仅由我们的NRSA培训补助金资助， 机构资金，但也（酌情）通过其他校外来源，包括新的培训赠款 来自Burroughs Wellcome基金和医学科学家培训计划（MSTP）的资助， NIH/NIGMS。我们力求为我们的毕业生提供的知识和技能，为他们在广泛的 设置范围。扩展我们的博士课程，eCLIPSE（教育连接实验室调查 和人口科学在爱因斯坦），已经成长出我们的创新博士在临床研究，这开始 我们的第一笔CTSA拨款eCLIPSE的总体目标是培养受过交叉训练且易于操作的科学家 以实验室为基础的基础科学家和以人口为导向的科学家所采用的技术和研究方法 研究人员我们的核心课程包括精心挑选的课程，从我们的生物医学 科学博士课程和我们的临床研究硕士课程，辅以特定的程序 研讨会和监督。eCLIPSE的一个基石是周到和认真的共同指导， 这些研究人员中有一名来自实验室科学，另一名来自人口科学。 一个新的导师培训计划，强调共同辅导，计划在下一个项目期间，因为是一个小说 征聘努力从生物科学以外的相关学科中物色候选人。我们的初始PCI 入学者于2012年获得博士学位;此后，2016年又授予了4个博士学位（3个博士学位，1个医学博士/博士学位）， 目前有9名博士预科生（6名博士，3名医学博士/博士）正在攻读学位。

The Einstein-Montefiore Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (ICTR) has developed and supported a highly integrated core of education and career development programs in clinical and translational (C/T) research, accelerated by the funding of our first CTSA grant in 2008. Among our interlinked and coordinated education and career development programs, our innovative PhD in Clinical Investigation (PCI) has developed into a growing and increasingly effective training program; this new application will provide further growth and enhancement. The Specific Aims in our new NRSA Training Core application are: 1) to identify, educate, support, and mentor talented PhD and MD-PhD candidates to become impactful and successful clinical/translational scientists; 2) to encourage and facilitate translational research collaborations through interdisciplinary co-mentoring of trainees and novel approaches to supporting team science; 3) to promote a research culture that approaches all research responsibly, conducts all research rigorously, and reports all research in a manner supporting its reproducibility; 4) to rigorously evaluate and continuously improve our pre- and post-doctoral educational programs. Our students are funded not only by our NRSA training grant and institutional funds, but also (as appropriate) through other extramural sources, including a novel training grant from the Burroughs Wellcome Fund and the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) grant from NIH/NIGMS. We seek to provide our graduates with the knowledge and skills to serve them well in a broad range of settings. The expansion our PhD program, eCLIPSE (education Connecting Laboratory Investigation and Population Science at Einstein), has grown out of our innovative PhD in Clinical Investigation, which began with our first CTSA grant. The overall goal of eCLIPSE is to produce scientists who are cross trained and facile with the techniques and research methods employed by both laboratory-based basic scientists and population-oriented researchers. Our core curriculum includes carefully selected courses from both our biomedical sciences PhD program and our MSc program in Clinical Research, complemented by program-specific seminars and oversight. A cornerstone of eCLIPSE is thoughtful and conscientious co-mentoring from established investigators, with one mentor from the laboratory sciences and one from the population sciences. A new mentor training program, emphasizing co-mentoring, is planned for the next project period, as is a novel recruitment effort to identify candidates from relevant disciplines beyond the biological sciences. Our initial PCI enrollee received her PhD in 2012; since then, 4 additional PhDs were conferred in 2016 (3 PhD, 1 MD/PhD), and there are currently 9 predoctoral students (6 PhD, 3 MD/PhD) working toward their degrees.
