DIABETES RESEARCH AND TRAINING CENTER

这项提议寻求芝加哥大学的延续 糖尿病研究和培训中心。该中心是一个 涉及70多个部门的跨部门合作努力 调查人员。该中心的目标是：1)促进糖尿病和 支持性、综合性、协作性和 多学科环境；2)加强临床和基础 现有糖尿病研究人员的研究能力；3) 鼓励没有参与糖尿病研究的研究人员成为 对研究糖尿病和内分泌学相关问题感兴趣；4) 制定和实施两种医疗保健培训方案 糖尿病诊断和治疗中的专业人员和患者 糖尿病；5)促进将新的研究成果转移到 临床领域，在那里他们可能被正式考虑从 疾病的发病机制、诊断和治疗；以及6)告知 其他在专业和非专业背景下取得的成就， 糖尿病研究和培训的机会和进展。 此应用程序包含三个独立组件的建议； 基础生物医学研究部门--管理核心部门 以及示范和教育部分。基础生物医学 研究部分由四个核心实验室组成，以促进糖尿病 研究，以及促进参与的试点和可行性计划 在与糖尿病相关的研究中，更年轻和成熟的研究人员。 管理核心组件负责监督 该中心作为一个整体的运作。示范与教育 组件由教育资源核心和演示组成 单位。综合起来，这些目标和组件定义了 芝加哥大学DRTC。

This proposal seeks the continuation of the University of Chicago Diabetes Research and Training Center. The Center is an interdepartmental and cooperative endeavor involving more than 70 investigators. The aims of the Center are: 1) to foster diabetes and endocrinology research in a supportive, integrative, collaborative and multidisciplinary environment; 2) to enhance the clinical and basic research capabilities of established diabetes investigators; 3) to encourage investigators not involved in diabetes research to become interested in pursuing problems related to diabetes and endocrinology; 4) to develop and implement programs for the training of both health care professionals and diabetic patients in the diagnosis and management of diabetes; 5) to facilitate the transfer of newer research findings to the clinical arena where they may be formally considered in terms of the pathogenesis, diagnosis and treatment of the disease; and 6) to inform others in both professional and lay settings of the accomplishments, opportunities and advancements in diabetes research and training. This application contains proposals for three separate components; the Basic Biomedical Research component, the Administrative Core Component and the Demonstration and Education component. The Basic Biomedical Research component consists of four Core Laboratories to foster diabetes research, and a Pilot and Feasibility Program to foster the participation of younger and established investigators in research related to diabetes. The Administrative Core Component is responsible for overseeing the operation of the Center as a whole. The Demonstration and Education Component consists of an Education Resource Core and a Demonstration Unit. Taken together, these objectives and components define The University of Chicago DRTC.
