MSM Interdisciplinary Sleep/Clinical Cardiovascular Research Training Program

这一培训计划的总体目标是吸引和培训有才华的未被充分代表的少数族裔 博士生到男男性接触者，并为他们在临床寻求独立研究职业机会做好准备 和翻译研究(CTR)，从而增加了高技能调查人员的数量 CTR与临床心血管疾病和睡眠障碍有关。 以下目标将推动本计划的总体目标：目标1：发展多学科临床 心血管和睡眠障碍研究培训计划将在全国范围内招募URM候选人 ACTSI及其伙伴机构(MSM、Emory和佐治亚理工学院)。我们的目标是博士生 对心血管和睡眠障碍感兴趣的研究为参加MSM的PHD/MSCR轨道做准备 MSCR计划，目标是对心血管和睡眠障碍研究感兴趣的医学生 注册参加MSM MSCR计划的MD/MSCR路径。目标2：提高临床和翻译水平 为少数T32受训人员研究心血管和睡眠障碍的培训环境。我们会 促进T32学员、教师和导师之间的跨学科讨论和科学交流。 我们将利用MSM研究生医学教育项目的多样性和优势， 心血管和神经科学研究所的卓越科研成果，杰出的临床 亚特兰大临床与翻译科学研究所(ACTSI)的研究资源和指导 实现上述目标。 相关性(请参阅说明)： 这一培训方案解决了培养可持续发展的少数族裔科学家的迫切需要 作为21世纪的主要研究人员，通过制定和实施创新战略和 建立在现有计划(如ACTSI)优势之上的协作。

The overall goal of this training program is to attract and train talented under-represented minority pre- doctoral students to MSM and prepare them to pursue independent research career opportunities in Clinical and Translational Research (CTR) thereby augmenting the number of highly skilled investigators pursuing CTR related to clinical cardiovascular disease and sleep disorders. The following aims will drive the overall goal of this program: Aim 1: Develop a multidisciplinary clinical cardiovascular and sleep-disorders research training program that will recruit URM candidates across the ACTSI and its partner institutions (MSM, Emory, and Georgia Tech). We will target PhD graduate students interested in cardiovascular and sleep disorders research for enrollment in the PhD/MSCR track in the MSM MSCR program, and target medical students interested in cardiovascular and sleep disorders research for enrollment in the MD/MSCR track in the MSM MSCR program. Aim 2: Enhance the clinical and translational research training environment in cardiovascular and sleep disorders for minority T32 trainees. We will promote interdisciplinary discourse and scientific exchange among T32 trainees, faculty and mentors. We will harnesses the diversity and strength of MSM graduate medical education programs, the basic science research excellence ofthe Cardiovascular and Neuroscience institutes, the outstanding clinical research resources and mentorship ofthe Atlanta Clinical and Translational Science Institute (ACTSI) to address the above aims. RELEVANCE (See instructions): This training program addresses the critical need for development of a sustainable pool of minority scientists as leading investigators for the 21 st century, by developing and implementing innovative strategies and collaborations that build upon the strengths of existing programs such as the ACTSI.
