DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): In response to Program Announcement PAR-10-170 from the NIDCR to provide Institutional Training for a Dental and Craniofacial Workforce, a T90/R90 Comprehensive Training Program in Oral Biology is proposed. The proposal builds on twenty years of experience with a highly productive T32 Training Program in Oral Biology at the University of Florida College of Dentistry (UFCD) and will provide breadth and depth in training to basic and clinician scientists in multiple areas that are designated as high priority by the NIDCR. The scientific areas encompassed in this Comprehensive Training Program in Oral Biology include Oral Infectious Diseases, Oral:Systemic Health Connections, Autoimmunity, Bone Biology, Gene Therapy and Stem Cell Biology, Oral Cancers, Salivary Gland Biology, and Pain. To accomplish our goals, a team of experienced and well-funded basic and clinical researchers has been assembled to provide an extensive set of training experiences in the biomedical sciences that are directly relevant to oral health and diseases. Established and time-tested interdisciplinary research training programs in the UFCD and the UF College of Medicine will be utilized, with particular emphasis on the Interdisciplinary PhD Program in Biomedical Sciences and the CTSA- supported Clinical and Translational Science Institute. Trainees will include i) traditional PhD students conducting oral health-related research, ii) dual-degree candidates in our newly-developed DMD-PhD program, iii) DMD/DDS holders seeking a PhD and clinical specialty, iv) traditional post-doctoral PhD scientists, and v) DMD-DDS holders seeking advanced post-doctoral training to prepare them for careers in academic dentistry. Formal training in Clinical Investigation will be available to all individuals supported by the program. The use of combinations of our extensive educational, scientific and clinical resources has allowed us to develop highly integrated yet sufficiently flexible training options to meet the needs of a heterogeneous group of trainees. Collectively, these programs will produce a group of highly skilled and interactive scientists who will generate new knowledge and translate discoveries to tangible advances in the detection, prevention, treatment and cure of diseases and abnormalities of the oral and craniofacial complex. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: In response to a request from the National Institute for Dental and Craniofacial Research to provide Institutional Training for a Dental and Craniofacial Workforce, the University of Florida College of Dentistry has developed a Comprehensive Training Program in Oral Biology. The proposal builds on twenty years of successful training of basic and clinician scientists in oral health research. Using the extensive educational, scientific and clinical resources at our University, we will provide a comprehensive series of pre- and post- doctoral training opportunities in research areas that directly relate to oral health and diseases. Collectively, these programs will produce a group of highly skilled and interactive scientists who will generate new knowledge and translate their discoveries to advances in the detection, prevention, treatment and cure of diseases and abnormalities of the oral and craniofacial complex.

描述(由申请人提供)：为响应NIDCR为牙科和颅面工作人员提供机构培训的计划公告PAR-10-170，提出了T90/R90口腔生物学综合培训计划。这项建议建立在佛罗里达大学牙科学院(UFCD)高效的口腔生物学T32培训计划20年的经验基础上，并将在NIDCR指定为高度优先的多个领域为基础和临床科学家提供培训的广度和深度。这项口腔生物学综合培训计划涵盖的科学领域包括：口腔传染病、口腔：全身健康连接、自身免疫、骨生物学、基因治疗和干细胞生物学、口腔癌症、唾液腺生物学和疼痛。为了实现我们的目标，我们组建了一支经验丰富、资金充足的基础和临床研究人员团队，提供与口腔健康和疾病直接相关的生物医学科学方面的广泛培训经验。将利用UFCD和UF医学院建立的、经过时间考验的跨学科研究培训计划，特别是生物医学科学的跨学科博士计划以及CTSA支持的临床和转换科学研究所。受训人员将包括：i)从事口腔健康相关研究的传统博士研究生；ii)我们新开发的DMD-PhD项目的双学位候选人；iii)寻求博士和临床专业的DMD/DDS持有人；iv)传统的博士后科学家；以及v)寻求高级博士后培训的DMD-DDS持有人，为他们在牙科学术领域的职业生涯做准备。临床调查方面的正式培训将提供给该计划支持的所有个人。利用我们广泛的教育、科学和临床资源的组合，我们能够开发出高度整合但足够灵活的培训方案，以满足不同类别学员的需求。总体而言，这些计划将培养一批高技能和互动的科学家，他们将产生新的知识，并将发现转化为口腔和颅面复合体疾病和异常的检测、预防、治疗和治疗方面的切实进展。 公共卫生相关性：应国家牙科和颅面研究所的要求，为牙科和颅面工作人员提供机构培训，佛罗里达大学牙科学院制定了口腔生物学综合培训计划。该建议建立在二十年来对基础和临床科学家在口腔健康研究方面的成功培训的基础上。利用我们大学广泛的教育、科学和临床资源，我们将在与口腔健康和疾病直接相关的研究领域提供一系列全面的博士后和博士后培训机会。总体而言，这些计划将培养一批高技能和互动的科学家，他们将产生新的知识，并将他们的发现转化为口腔和颅面复合体疾病和异常的检测、预防、治疗和治疗方面的进步。
