 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The fundamental mission of academic medicine is the acquisition and application of scientific knowledge to improve health care. In order for the medical enterprise to function effectively, it is critically important for the academic biomedical community to have physician-scientists who receive special training that integrates both a rigorous scientific education with state-of-the-art medical education. These individuals facilitate interactions between the clinic and lab that promote both basic investigation on disease mechanisms and translational research leading to clinical applications. Thus, they are positioned to be leaders in biomedical research and educational communities. The Ohio State University (OSU) Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) was initially funded to achieve these lofty goals in 2011. In this renewal application, we describe the outstanding MD-PhD training program we have developed, which provides rigor, depth, and breadth of both scientific and medical education in a way that facilitates the integration of both sets of training to prepare these dedicated and driven students for careers as successful physician-scientists. Over the preceding grant period, the OSU MSTP has served as a partnership program linking medical school curriculum with three integrated core graduate programs during a time of tremendous curricular evolution. By working closely with medical school and graduate school leadership, we have used new approaches in both areas to develop a cutting-edge curriculum joining foundational knowledge with in-depth scientific inquiry in a wide variety of areas. Medical school coursework is completed using an MSTP-specific modification of OSU's Lead. Serve. Inspire (LSI) curriculum, a competency-based, efficient approach which eschews large lectures in favor of self-directed learning, high-yield student-faculty contact hours, and early, meaningful, patient contact. PhD courses begin in the second year of the program. The prior grant allowed students to earn their degrees in the Biomedical Sciences Graduate Program (BGSP), Neuroscience Graduate Studies Program (NGSP), or Biomedical Engineering (BME). In this proposal, we make good on our plan to expand PhD availability across the University to carefully vetted affiliate programs, leveraging our campus strength in non-traditional, but highly relevant graduate programs. Because of our curricular integration and careful oversight by MSTP Leadership, students complete their studies in a time-efficient manner, typically 8 years. Our innovative MD-PhD program has attracted interest from an outstanding pool of applicants that has doubled in size over the past 5 years concurrent with a doubling in size of our matriculating class from 5 to 10 students per year. Herein we request funds to double our NIH-supported training slots in graded fashion to match this growth. Renewal: students, developing future leaders who will enable the Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center to achieve its stated mission: To improve people's lives through innovation in research, education and patient care.

 描述（由申请人提供）：学术医学的基本使命是获取和应用科学知识，以改善医疗保健。为了使医疗企业有效运作，对于学术生物医学界来说，拥有接受特殊培训的医生科学家至关重要，这些培训将严格的科学教育与最先进的医学教育相结合。这些人促进了 临床和实验室之间的互动，促进了疾病机制的基础研究和导致临床应用的转化研究。因此，他们被定位为生物医学研究和教育界的领导者。该俄亥俄州州立大学（OSU）医学科学家培训计划（MSTP）最初资助，以实现这些崇高的目标在2011年。在此更新申请中，我们描述了我们开发的优秀MD-PhD培训计划，该计划提供了科学和医学教育的严谨性，深度和广度，有助于整合两套培训， 这些专注和驱动的学生为事业作为成功的物理学家，科学家。在前一个赠款期间，俄勒冈州立大学MSTP一直作为一个合作伙伴计划，在巨大的课程演变的时间连接医学院课程与三个综合核心研究生课程。通过与医学院和研究生院领导层密切合作，我们在这两个领域都采用了新的方法来开发尖端课程，将基础知识与各种领域的深入科学探究结合起来。医学院的课程是使用MSTP特定的修改OSU的铅完成。发球LSI课程，一种基于能力的有效方法，它避免了大量的讲座，有利于自我导向的学习，高收益的学生与教师接触时间，以及早期的，有意义的，耐心的 contact.博士课程开始在该计划的第二年。先前的补助金允许学生在生物医学科学研究生课程（BGSP），神经科学研究生课程（NGSP）或生物医学工程（BME）中获得学位。在这项提案中，我们很好地实现了我们的计划，以扩大博士学位在整个大学的可用性，以仔细审查附属计划，利用我们的校园在非传统的，但高度相关的研究生课程的优势。由于我们的课程整合和MSTP领导的仔细监督，学生以一种高效的方式完成学业，通常为8年。我们的创新MD-PhD课程吸引了来自申请人的优秀人才库的兴趣，在过去5年中，申请人的规模翻了一番，同时我们的入学人数从每年5到10名学生增加了一倍。在此，我们要求资金将我们的NIH支持的培训名额增加一倍，以分级的方式来匹配这种增长。 更新：学生，培养未来的领导者谁将使俄亥俄州州立大学韦克斯纳医学中心实现其既定的使命：通过研究，教育和病人护理的创新，以改善人们的生活。
