Conduits: MSHS Translational Science Hub

建议的TL 1导管培训计划的总体目标是，临床和 转化科学，是发展创新的临床转化科学的教育经验， 从而促进招聘、培训、指导和留住来自不同领域的人才， 他们受到启发，参与团队科学，以改善人类健康。拟议方案是 专门针对以下方面的特殊需求、挑战和建议： 加强临床研究者管道：1）现有劳动力缺乏多样性， 支持大量投资，促进少数民族参与翻译工作， 科学领导; 2）减少MD医生-科学家的数量， CTSA为医学生提供资金以获得临床硕士学位的建议 Research.为了应对这些具体挑战，我们在TL 1下提出了两个具体的培训机会 伞：1）西奈团队为基础的翻译教育计划：URM推进器（STTEP UP）倡议 科学和医学，专为URM后学士学位（STEM领域：每年4名学生）和 博士后（特别是住院医师和专科研究员：每年4名学生）学员;以及2）新的 入学（医学院第一年完成后）门户（MD/MSCR）计划（3名学生/年）， 旨在吸引医学生（特别是URM和经济困难的学生），他们可能不会 以前有机会考虑这种职业机会。这项培训工作将 利用我们与伦斯勒理工学院（RPI）的合作伙伴关系， ISMMS和MSHS的教育专业知识。这些努力也将建立在以前的CTSA资助和 在转化疗法、基因组学、大数据分析、个性化治疗等方面的机构投资 医学，特定人群健康和临床试验专业知识，社区参与，团队科学和 导师制为了优化和丰富这一培训工作，我们已经编织到我们的课程努力的结构， 本CTSA提案其他组成部分的计划优势和专业知识，并将利用 与其他CTSA中心的教育领导者之前建立和正在进行的合作。最后，更多 有效地教育我们的学员在翻译科学，我们将开发和实施新的游戏为基础的 学习工具，与RPI的游戏和模拟艺术与科学项目合作。我们提出 创建和传播早期管道计划的模型，旨在专门解决以下需求： 翻译研究队伍中的少数民族（URM）成员。教育项目 所描述的将培养批判性思维以及获得方法技能和原则， 富有成效的团队合作，使具有学科相关知识的个人能够运用他们的专业知识来发展 转化科学研究计划，将加速发现，以改善健康。

The overarching goal of the proposed TL1 training program for Conduits, the Institute for Clinical and Translational Sciences, is to develop innovative educational experiences in clinical translational science thereby fostering recruitment, training, mentorship and retention of talented individuals from diverse backgrounds who are inspired to engage in team science to improve human health. The proposed program is specifically designed to directly address singular unmet needs, challenges and recommendations for strengthening the clinical investigator pipeline: 1) lack of diversity within the current workforce, with strong endorsement for significant investments in fostering the emergence of minority participation in translational science leadership; and 2) diminishing numbers of MD physician-scientists and summary recommendations for CTSA provisions of funding for medical students to earn a Master’s in Clinical Research. To address these specific challenges we propose two specific training opportunities under the TL1 umbrella: 1) the Sinai Team-based Translational Education Program: the URM Propeller (STTEP UP) Initiative for Science and Medicine, designed for URM post-baccalaureate (STEM fields: 4 students per year) and postdoctoral (residents and subspecialty fellows in particular: 4 students per year) trainees; and 2) the new entry (after completion of the first year of medical school) PORTAL (MD/MSCR) program (3 students/year), designed to attract medical students (in particular URM and financially disadvantaged students) who may not have previously been afforded the chance to consider this type of career opportunity. This training effort will leverage our partnership with Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute (RPI), and the scientific, clinical, and educational expertise of ISMMS and the MSHS. These efforts will also build upon previous CTSA-funded and inspired institutional investments in translational therapeutics, genomics, BIG Data analytics, personalized medicine, population specific health and clinical trials expertise, community engagement, team science and mentorship. To optimize and enrich this training effort we have woven into the fabric of our curricular efforts, the programmatic strengths and expertise of other components of this CTSA proposal and will capitalize upon previously established and ongoing collaborations with education leaders at other CTSA Hubs. Finally, to more effectively educate our trainees in translational science we will develop and implement novel game-based learning tools, in collaboration with the Games and Simulation Arts and Science Program at RPI. We propose to create and disseminate models of early pipeline programs designed to specifically address the needs of under-represented minority (URM) members of the translational research workforce. The educational programs described will foster critical thinking as well as the acquisition of methodological skills and principles of productive teamwork, to enable individuals with discipline-related knowledge to apply their expertise to develop translational science research programs that will accelerate discovery to improve health.
