Sickle Cell Scholar Plan

我们中心奖学金计划的主要目标是为候选人在以下领域的职业生涯做准备 学术医学和生物医学研究，并协助个人(医学博士、博士、 或医学博士。博士)成为镰状细胞疾病领域富有成效的独立调查人员。该程序将添加 随着时间的推移，这些“学者”的数量达到了临界值。最重要的是，正是这一干部个人将会， 我们希望，成为明天的临床项目主任和NIH首席研究员。资源 这个人将包括在圣克里斯托弗医院接受最先进的临床护理的患者 儿童和托马斯·杰斐逊大学医院，玛丽安·安德森医院的临床研究人员 综合镰刀细胞中心，儿科的MAC研究实验室设施，地址为 托马斯·杰斐逊大学和卡德萨计划的实验室设施和教育计划 血液学研究也在杰斐逊医学院。玛丽·斯图尔特博士，世界卫生组织首席调查员 计划，将作为这位学者的导师之一，酌情进行双重指导，依赖于 学者为追求其学术和学术活动而确定的研究活动领域。它 预计此人将制定一项研究计划，以补充正在进行的基础 玛丽安·安德森中心研究人员的科学、翻译和临床研究。

The primary objective of the Scholar Program at our Center is to prepare the candidate for a career in academic medicine and biomedical research and to assist in the development of individuals (either MD, PhD, or MD. PhD) into productive independent investigators in the field of sickle cell disease. This program will add to the critical mass of such "Scholars" over time. Most important is that it is this cadre of individuals who will, we hope, become the Clinical Program Directors and NIH Principal Investigators of tomorrow. The resources for this individual will include patients receiving state-of-the-art clinical care at St. Christopher's Hospital for Children and Thomas Jefferson University Hospital, the clinical research staff of the Marian Anderson Comprehensive Sickle Cell Center, the MAC Research Laboratory Facilities in the Department of Pediatrics at Thomas Jefferson University, and the Laboratory Facilities and Education Program of the Cardeza Program for Hematology Research also at Jefferson Medical School. Dr. Marie Stuart, the Principal Investigator of the Program, will serve as one of the Mentors for this Scholar, with dual mentorship as appropriate, dependent on the area of research activities identified by the Scholar in pursuit of his/her academic and scholarly activities. It is anticipated that this individual will develop a research program that will complement the ongoing basic science, translational, and clinical research of the Marian Anderson Center's investigators.
