DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Vanderbilt University proposes a five-year renewal of its Biomedical Informatics Training Program. Begun in 2001, the program offers MS and PhD degrees in Biomedical Informatics, as well as nondegree postdoctoral and short-term training experiences. The program has experienced steady growth in high quality applicants and currently has more than 20 trainees, including 16 predoctoral and postdoctoral students funded by our NLM training grant, now in its fourth year. The Training Program's administrative home, the Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI), has likewise grown - in faculty, resources, and productivity - to become widely regarded as among the top informatics programs nationally. The informatics-rich environments of the Vanderbilt University Medical Center and the VA Tennessee Valley Healthcare System provide "hands on" training experiences that are exemplary. The MS and PhD degree programs include a core curriculum of courses in biomedical informatics and the foundation disciplines of computer science, biomedicine, and research methodology. Degree-seeking students pursue concentrated study in one of several application domains, including clinical informatics and bioinformatics, and the emerging areas of clinical research and translational informatics and organizational informatics now under development. We continue to offer research-intensive nondegree postdoctoral fellowships. For the period 2007-2012, Vanderbilt requests a total of 16 full-time training positions (10 predoctoral and 6 postdoctoral) and 4 shortterm training positions per year. Through the Meharry-Vanderbilt Alliance, we will continue to recruit Meharry students, graduates, and residents who seek training in biomedical informatics and expand recruitment efforts to underrepresented minorities from other institutions. Since its inception in 1991, the Vanderbilt Biomedical Informatics initiative has had one, key unifying idea: the best research and the best innovation arise from a deep understanding of the problems being addressed, and a commitment to creating tools and systems that serve real-world needs. Application and evaluation of these informatics innovations results in scalable tools that address today's most urgent challenges in healthcare delivery, biomedical research, and health professions education. Vanderbilt biomedical informatics graduates will become the next generation of scholars and innovators, leading the charge against these and other challenges not yet imagined.

描述(由申请人提供)： 范德比尔特大学提议将其生物医学信息学培训计划续订五年。该项目始于2001年，提供生物医学信息学的硕士和博士学位，以及非学位博士后和短期培训经验。该项目经历了高素质申请者的稳步增长，目前有20多名实习生，其中包括16名由我们的NLM培训补助金资助的博士前和博士后学生，现已进入第四个年头。该培训计划的管理机构生物医学信息学系(DBMI)也同样成长起来--师资、资源和生产力--成为被广泛认为是全国顶级信息学课程之一。范德比尔特大学医疗中心和弗吉尼亚州田纳西谷医疗系统的信息学丰富的环境提供了堪称典范的“动手”培训经验。硕士和博士学位课程包括生物医学信息学的核心课程，以及计算机科学、生物医学和研究方法论的基础学科。寻求学位的学生在几个应用领域中的一个集中学习，包括临床信息学和生物信息学，以及正在发展中的临床研究和翻译信息学和组织信息学的新兴领域。我们继续提供研究密集型非学位博士后奖学金。在2007-2012年期间，范德比尔特要求总共16个全职培训职位(10个博士前和6个博士后)和4个短期职位 每年的培训岗位。通过Meharry-Vanderbilt联盟，我们将继续招募Meharry 寻求生物医学信息学培训并扩大招聘范围的学生、毕业生和住院医生 努力减少来自其他机构的少数群体代表人数。自1991年成立以来，范德比尔特 生物医学信息学计划有一个关键的统一理念：最好的研究和最好的创新源于对正在解决的问题的深刻理解，并致力于创造服务于现实世界需求的工具和系统。这些信息学创新的应用和评估产生了可扩展的工具，以应对当今医疗保健提供、生物医学研究和卫生专业教育中最紧迫的挑战。范德比尔特生物医学信息学毕业生将成为下一代学者和创新者，带头应对这些和其他尚未想象的挑战。
