Anesthesiology Research Training Program

描述(由申请者提供)：麻醉学研究培训计划的主要目标是培养围手术期医学、危重护理和疼痛管理内科科学家，以及能够建立富有成效的学术生涯的实验室研究人员(即，强大的同行评议出版物和具有竞争力的外部资金)。随着麻醉学和围手术期医学的发展，这些人将帮助满足麻醉学和围手术期医学的研究需求，包括培训其他学术麻醉师。我们的计划旨在为以下人员提供实验室研究培训：1)博士后常驻研究员，2)内科科学家发展计划(PSDP)最后几年的住院医师，3)初级教员，4)坚定致力于麻醉学导向研究的博士后研究员。这些研究员将在麻醉系的实验室进行两年的研究，或与麻醉系的研究人员合作。该学院由17名潜在的导师组成，他们拥有不同的研究项目，包括麻醉剂和止痛药作用的分子机制，急性肺损伤的发病机制，以及涉及疼痛和重症监护医学的临床结果研究。学员将可以使用国家公认的导师的设施，因为他们在博士后研究生教育方面有很强的历史，积极的研究，外部同行评审的资金，强大的同行评审出版记录，以及补充麻醉学教师的研究。这项为期两年的计划将包括通过德克萨斯大学医学院和生物医学科学学院提供的精选课程。培训将在一个通过博士和内科科学家之间的互动鼓励转译研究的环境中进行。重点是多样化招生的候选人招聘是一项优先事项。申请者将根据对学术医学事业的奉献精神、强大的医学和研究生教育以及研究经验来选择。我们的实习生将提供内科科学家和研究人员，他们将通过扩大麻醉学及其子专业的科学知识基础，进一步推动麻醉学和围手术期医学领域的发展。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The primary objective of the Anesthesiology Research Training Program is to develop perioperative medicine, critical care, and pain management physician scientists, as well as laboratory investigators who can build productive academic careers (i.e., strong peer review publications and be competitive for extramural funding). These individuals will help serve the research needs of Anesthesiology and Perioperative Medicine as the specialty moves forward, including the training of other academic anesthesiologists. Our Program is designed to provide laboratory research training for: 1) postdoctoral resident fellows, 2) residents in the final years of the physician scientist development program (PSDP), 3) junior faculty fellows, and 4) post doctoral PhD fellows who have a strong commitment to Anesthesiology oriented research. The fellows will spend two years in research in laboratories of, or collaborating with investigators in the Department of Anesthesiology. The faculty consists of 17 potential mentors with diverse research programs, including molecular mechanisms of anesthetic and pain drug action, pathogenic mechanisms of acute lung injury, and clinical outcome studies involving pain and critical care medicine. The trainees will have access to facilities of nationally recognized mentors selected because of a strong history of post doctoral graduate education, active research, extramural peer-reviewed funding, strong peer-reviewed publication record, and research that complements Anesthesiology faculty. The two-year program will include select course offerings through the UB School of Medicine and Biomedical Sciences. The training will take place in an environment that encourages translational research through interactions between PhDs and physician scientists. Recruitment of candidates with an emphasis on diversity enrollment is a priority. Applicants will be selected based on dedication to a career in academic medicine, strong medical and postgraduate education, and research experience. Our trainees will provide physician scientist and investigators, who will further the field of Anesthesiology and perioperative medicine by expanding the scientific knowledge base of Anesthesiology and its subspecialties.
