DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Cardiovascular disease is a leading cause of mortality in the United States. Understanding the physiology and pathology of the heart and circulation is the foundation for improving the treatment and prevention of cardiovascular diseases. Wayne State University has an outstanding track record in providing extensive training in the cardiovascular sciences and an exceptional record in the training of minority students in the Detroit metropolitan area, contributing a major role in research education in the region. This new T32 proposal seeks financial support to strengthen our research training effort in the development of a new generation of scientists who will not only pursue cardiovascular research to improve health care, but also strengthen our economic base by innovations that will be translated to medical practice. This proposal encompasses a focused program of excellence in training predoctoral graduate students in cardiovascular research. Based on a selective team of 14 training faculty with complementary scientific expertise in cardiovascular physiology and diseases, the new Detroit Cardiovascular Training Program will emphasize preparing 21st century scientists with strong backgrounds in molecular mechanisms of cardiovascular health and diseases, who are equipped with integrative and translational approaches to scientific investigation. The goal of this new program is to support 4 predoctoral trainees per year. Trainees will be selected from an excellent pool of candidates, including under-represented minorities who may come from an NIH-supported Initiative for Maximizing Student Diversity (IMSD) program. In addition to externally funded active individual research programs with proven training productivity, our training faculty has a long-standing history of joint research an training collaborations. This strong research environment enables us to provide multidisciplinary training in cardiovascular science through a combination of didactic courses and mentored research in areas including hypertension, cardiac muscle contractility, heart failure, myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury, and cardiovascular adaptation. The training program provides comprehensive didactic and practical instructions in the responsible conduct of research. Career development training will include research seminars and workshops focusing on writing and presentation skills and fellowship and research grant writing and evaluation. Exceptional institutional commitment is in place to support our Program. Operation of the Program will be monitored by a Steering Committee consisting of the Program Director, Program Coordinator, and three training faculty members. The Program will be reviewed regularly by an Internal Advisory Committee in consultation with external advisors. The Department of Physiology Office staff will provide administrative support to the personnel, accounting, and programmatic operations of the Program.

描述（由申请人提供）：心血管疾病是美国死亡率的主要原因。了解心脏和循环的生理和病理是改善心血管疾病治疗和预防的基础。韦恩州立大学在提供心血管科学的广泛培训方面具有出色的往绩，并在底特律大都会地区培训少数族裔学生方面具有出色的记录，在该地区的研究教育中扮演了重要角色。这项新的T32提案寻求财政支持，以加强我们的研究培训工作，以发展新一代科学家，他们不仅会从事心血管研究以改善医疗保健，而且还通过将其转化为医疗实践的创新来增强我们的经济基础。 该建议涵盖了一项针对卓越培训心血管研究专业研究生的卓越计划。基于一支由14个培训教师组成的团队，具有心血管生理学和疾病方面的互补科学专业知识，底特律新的心血管训练计划将强调为具有强大的心血管健康和疾病分子机制的21世纪科学家准备，这些科学和疾病的分子机制具有综合性和翻译方法。这个新计划的目标是支持每年4名托管学员。学员将从一大批候选人中选出，包括代表性不足的少数民族，他们可能来自NIH支持的倡议，以最大程度地提高学生多样性（IMSD）计划。 除了具有经过验证的培训生产力的外部资助的活跃的个人研究计划外，我们的培训学院还拥有长期的联合研究培训合作历史。这种强大的研究环境使我们能够通过结合教学课程和在包括高血压，心脏肌肉收缩力，心力衰竭，心肌缺血性灌注促进损伤和心血管适应等领域的领域中进行多学科培训。该培训计划在负责任的研究中提供了全面的教学和实用指导。职业发展培训将包括研究研讨会和研讨会，专注于写作和演讲技巧以及研究金以及研究赠款的写作和评估。 为支持我们的计划做出了杰出的机构承诺。该计划的运作将由指导委员会监控，该指导委员会由计划主任，计划协调员和三名培训教师组成。该计划将与外部顾问协商内部咨询委员会定期审查。生理办公室工作人员将向该计划的人员，会计和程序运营提供行政支持。
