The University of Utah MD-PhD Program is rapidly growing with a highly successful history of training physician- scientists. It enjoys robust institutional support, a large and diverse body of 135 outstanding and well-funded research mentors, and an integrated health science campus with adjacent clinical and research facilities. Utah’s MD-PhD program recruits from across the country, but is uniquely attractive to students from the vast Intermountain West region, with no other MSTP within 500 miles, making it a potential new regional hub for students pursuing physician-scientist training. The accelerating momentum of the Program is evident in the tripling of applications and doubling of class size since 2017. The high quality of trainees and the training environment are evidenced by the excellent F30 success rate over the past 5 years (67%). Trainee outcomes are strong, with an 84% MD-PhD completion rate (100% receiving at least an MD or PhD), high research productivity (average of 6.9 publications per trainee, with 2.7 as first/co-first author), and 96% of MD-PhD graduates pursuing residency training. In the past 3 years, 40% of incoming students are from NIH-defined underrepresented groups. The proposed MSTP would further optimize the training program with increased integration between the MD and PhD phases, an improved governance structure with extensive trainee participation, enhanced diversity recruiting, rigorous day-one lab safety training, enhanced mentor training, and detailed program evaluation. A key focus will be smoothing the transitions between research and clinical training via Program activities and curriculum, including a practice clerkship, longitudinal clinical experience during the PhD years, and a proposal preparation course that readies trainees for departmental preliminary exams. The proposed program plan will also emphasize rigor and reproducibility, as well as the responsible conduct of research with formal training and integration into community events (monthly meetings, annual retreat). An extensive array of community and wellness resources ensure that trainees are well-supported during this intense, but highly rewarding training. Four trainee slots are requested in year 1, and 8 slots are requested in years 2-5. Each trainee will be supported for their first two years, but will follow the proposed Program Plan for the entirety of their MD-PhD training.

犹他大学MD-PHD计划正在迅速发展，并具有非常成功的培训医师的历史 - 科学家。它享有强大的机构支持，这是一个庞大而多元化的机构，拥有135个杰出且资金充足的机构 研究导师，以及一个具有相邻临床和研究设施的综合健康科学校园。犹他州的 来自全国各地的MD-PHD计划报告，但对疫苗的学生具有独特的吸引力 西部地区的国际地区，没有其他MSTP在500英里以内，这使其成为潜在的新区域枢纽 接受身体科学培训的学生。该计划的加速动力是证据 自2017年以来，应用程序的三倍和班级规模的两倍。培训和培训的高质量 过去5年（67％）的F30成功率出色的成功率证明了环境。实习生的结果 很强，MD-PHD完成率为84％（至少获得MD或博士学位100％），高研究 生产率（平均每位受训者6.9个出版物，第一/联合第一作者为2.7），MD-PHD的96％ 接受居住培训的毕业生。在过去的三年中，有40％的新生来自NIH定义 代表性不足的群体。 拟议的MSTP将进一步优化培训计划，并增加MD之间的整合 博士阶段是通过广泛的学员参与改善的治理结构，增强了多样性 招聘，严格的一日实验室安全培训，增强的心理培训和详细的计划评估。一个 关键重点是通过计划活动和 课程，包括练习职员，博士学位期间的纵向临床经验和提案 准备课程，为学员准备部门初步考试。拟议的计划计划将 还强调严格和可重复性，以及通过正式培训和 集成到社区活动（每月会议，年度务虚会）。一系列社区和 健康资源可确保在这种激烈但高度有意义的培训期间对学员得到充分支持。 第1年要求四个学员插槽，在2 - 5年内要求8个老虎机。每个学员将得到支持 他们的头两年，但将遵循拟议的计划计划，以进行全部MD-PHD培训。
