DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Pittsburgh proposes a five-year renewal of its training program in Biomedical Informatics. The T15 grant is currently entering its 25th consecutive year. Our program is notable for the long and distinguished history of biomedical informatics research in Pittsburgh, the continuous evolution and refinement of our educational programs, the strong institutional commitment to biomedical informatics and our training program, and the rich biomedical and computational research environment in which our training program is set. The program has an administrative home in the Department of Biomedical Informatics (DBMI) within the University of Pittsburgh School of Medicine. DBMI provides space, equipment, and financial support for training program administration, faculty, graduate students and postdoctoral scholars. The program is supported by an interdepartmental core faculty of 29 faculty members, including all 17 faculty members with primary appointments in DBMI. The Training Program Director, a tightly knit leadership group of faculty co- directors, and two experienced staff members support the overall operation of the program. The Pittsburgh BMI Training Program offers research training in all four sub-disciplines of Biomedical Informatics: translational bioinformatics, clinical research informatics, healthcare/clinical informatics, and public health informatics. Additionally, we also offer specialized research training in dental informatics. Students in our T15-funded training program may pursue an MS or PhD in Biomedical Informatics, an MS or PhD in Intelligent Systems - Biomedical Informatics Track, an MD/PhD through the Medical Scientist Training Program, or advanced postdoctoral research. The training program has undergone significant enhancements during the past funding period including a new core curriculum, improved advising structure, improved program evaluation plan, and enhanced efforts to recruit trainee candidates, including candidates from under-represented minorities and disadvantaged backgrounds. Enhancements for the proposed funding period include new advanced graduate seminars, new professional development content, and enhanced training in the responsible conduct of research. We have a strong track record of success in training biomedical informatics researchers in all sub- disciplines. Trainees from our program are publishing research articles in high impact journals in the field, winning national awards for their research, writing successful K grants and individual fellowship awards, and securing research positions in academics, industry and government upon graduation.

描述（由申请人提供）：匹兹堡大学提出了为期五年的生物医学信息学培训计划。 T15赠款目前连续第25年进入。我们的计划在匹兹堡的生物医学信息学研究的悠久而杰出的历史，我们的教育计划的持续发展和完善，对生物医学信息学和我们的培训计划的强大制度承诺以及我们培训计划的丰富生物医学和计算研究环境。该计划在匹兹堡大学医学院的生物医学信息学（DBMI）部门设有行政住所。 DBMI为培训计划管理，教师，研究生和博士后学者提供空间，设备和财务支持。该计划得到了由29名教职员工组成的部门间核心教职员工的支持，其中包括所有17名教职员工在DBMI任命。培训计划主任是一个紧密的教职董事领导小组，两名经验丰富的工作人员支持该计划的整体运作。 匹兹堡BMI培训计划在生物医学信息学的所有四个子学科中提供研究培训：转化生物信息学，临床研究信息学，医疗保健/临床信息学和公共卫生信息学。此外，我们还提供有关牙科信息学的专门研究培训。我们T15资助的培训计划中的学生可以攻读生物医学信息学，智能系统中的MS或PHD的MS或博士学位 - 生物医学信息学轨道，通过医学科学家培训计划或先进的博士后研究。 在过去的资金期间，该培训计划进行了重大增强，包括新的核心课程，改进的咨询结构，改进的计划评估计划，并加强了为招募培训人员候选人的努力，包括来自代表性不足的少数群体和劣势背景的候选人。拟议资助期的增强功能包括新的高级研究生研讨会，新的专业发展内容以及负责任的研究进行的增强培训。 我们在培训所有子学科的生物医学信息学研究人员方面都有成功的记录。我们计划的学员正在该领域的高影响期刊上发表研究文章，赢得了国家奖项，为他们的研究赢得了奖项，撰写成功的K赠款和个人奖学金奖项，并在毕业后确保了学术，工业和政府的研究职位。
