This proposal requests support for the MSTP at the University of Cincinnati College of Medicine (UCCOM). Our dual-degree program was established in 1985 and has been continuously NIH-funded for over 20 years. It enrolls 9 new students each year and currently includes 73 students. A unique and central feature of our program is that our MSTP is a partnership between a top ranked college of medicine and a premier children's hospital (Cincinnati Children's Hospital). The atmosphere afforded by seamless alignment of research and clinical practice provides the ideal research environment for significant and impactful health related research. The overarching mission of the UCCOM MSTP is to recruit, mentor, and educate a diverse group of physician scientists who will become leaders in their chosen careers that integrate clinical medicine and research to advance clinically relevant science and improve health throughout the world. Our Program is supported by a solid infrastructure in clinical and research training. Our students can choose from 11 diverse graduate programs. The success of our Program is best illustrated by the success of our graduates. Our students come from a diverse applicant pool drawn from across the nation. For the class that matriculated in the Fall of 2021. we had 189 applicants, which included applications from 37 states, Washington DC, and Puerto Rico. Our current MSTP students include 12% URM. The average time to complete our MSTP for the last 10 years is 8.0 years and our students have matched at the most competitive residency programs. Since the last funding period, several important and exciting developments have taken place, which include increases in the size and quality of our applicant pool including URM and disabled/disadvantaged applicants, our program faculty, extramural research support among our program faculty, number and breadth of training opportunities for MD/PhD candidates, increased individualized advising, expanded multi-pronged mentoring approaches, implementation of significant DEi initiatives including efforts designed to increase recruitment and retention of URI/M, disabled and disadvantaged students, expansion of both UCCOM and CCHMC facilities, and implementation of evidence based approaches to mentoring including required mentor training for all participating faculty. We are confident that we can continue to achieve our aims and meet the central goal of our program. Towards this goal, we are requesting support for 18 positions.

该提案请求支持辛辛那提大学医学院（UCCOM）的MSTP。我们的双学位课程成立于1985年，并已连续NIH资助超过20年。它每年招收9名新生，目前有73名学生。我们的计划的一个独特和中心的特点是，我们的MSTP是一个顶尖的医学院和首屈一指的儿童医院（辛辛那提儿童医院）之间的合作伙伴关系。研究和临床实践的无缝结合所提供的氛围为重要和有影响力的健康相关研究提供了理想的研究环境。UCCOM MSTP的首要使命是招募，指导和教育一群多样化的医生科学家，他们将成为他们所选择的职业的领导者，将临床医学和研究结合起来，以推进临床相关科学并改善世界各地的健康。 我们的计划得到了临床和研究培训方面坚实基础设施的支持。我们的学生可以从11个不同的研究生课程中选择。我们计划的成功最好地说明了我们的毕业生的成功。我们的学生来自全国各地的多元化申请人。在2021年秋季入学的班级。我们有189名申请者，其中包括来自37个州、华盛顿特区和波多黎各的申请者。我们目前的MSTP学生包括12%的URM。在过去的10年里，完成MSTP的平均时间是8.0年，我们的学生在最具竞争力的居住计划中名列前茅。 自上一个资助期以来，已经发生了几个重要和令人兴奋的发展，其中包括我们的申请人池的规模和质量的增加，包括URM和残疾人/弱势申请人，我们的计划教师，我们的计划教师之间的校外研究支持，MD/博士候选人的培训机会的数量和广度，增加个性化咨询，扩大多管齐下的指导方法，实施重大的DEi举措，包括旨在增加URI/M，残疾和弱势学生的招聘和保留，扩大UCCOM和CCHMC设施，以及实施基于证据的指导方法，包括所有参与教师的必要导师培训。我们相信，我们能够继续实现我们的目标，实现我们计划的中心目标。为了实现这一目标，我们请求支持18个职位。
