PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT The overall objective of the T32 “Translational Vision Research Training at UCSD” program is to train postdoctoral fellows to be become outstanding translational vision research scientists. The program builds on the exceptional training record of faculty from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine (ranked among the top 10 institutions for NIH Training grants) in general, and the Shiley Eye Institute in particular who have mentored scientists to translate basic science results into improved clinical care. Moreover, UCSD is highly collaborative with strong programmatic support for the translation of vision research from bench to bedside in areas such as genetics/proteomics, clinical research, bioengineering, ophthalmic imaging and image analysis, drug delivery, and data science, biomedical informatics and artificial intelligence. The short-term objectives of the T32 Training Grant program are to provide 2 postdoctoral fellows each year with training and instruction by mentors who direct NIH-funded laboratories. The program will provide a coordinated framework for the recruitment and training of postdoctoral fellows in three trainings tracks that focus on the Shiley Eye Institute and UCSD faculty's core strengths, (1) clinical/human subjects research and (2) genomics/proteomics and 3) data science/informatics/artificial intelligence. Each Training Track has an integrated mentor group, with an outstanding track record in training full-time postdoctoral scientists, and National Eye Institute support for their research. Twenty-two faculty mentors representing 11 UCSD departments, the Institute of Genomic Medicine and the new Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute will participate in the program. The program benefits from resources provided by the Clinical Translational Research Institute, Vision Research Center core grant, the UCSD Supercomputer Center. The multi-disciplinary vision research training experience includes didactic instruction appropriate to the area being studied, research experience with a lead mentor as well as professional development seminars, lectures and journal clubs in various disciplines. Instruction in research ethics and leadership, laboratory management, and grant writing will be required. To oversee the training program, solicit and review applications, and monitor/facilitate progress through each postdoctoral fellow's Individual Development Plan (IDP), the administrative structure of the training program includes a Program Director, Linda Zangwill, PhD, co-Director, Radha Ayyagari, PhD and an Executive Committee. In addition, an External Advisory Committee provides independent evaluation of the training program. Every postdoctoral fellow in the T32 Translational Vision Research Training Program at UCSD will be expected to exit well prepared for a vision research career in academia or industry.
