CLINICAL RESEARCH CURRICULUM AWARD

本申请要求支持开发、实施和评估威斯康星州医学院（MCW）临床研究调查员培训的全学院核心课程。该计划将提供为期2年的课程，其中包括对所有临床研究人员至关重要的方法，理论和概念化技能的基本领域的通用平台，以及针对受训者研究生涯特定领域的个性化指导的专业平台。 该计划是专为现有的初级教师，研究培训计划的毕业生，并致力于人类相关的临床研究追求的研究员。 在第一年，候选人将通过结构化的教学研讨会，小组介绍他们的研究和一对一的研究导师进行培训。 第一年的结构化研讨会旨在解决以下基本领域：临床再研究方向，科学伦理和诚信，研究设计，生物统计分析以及科学技术的进步。 在第二年，他们通过结构化研讨会接受额外的培训，以及研究演示和一对一的指导。 第二年的结构化工作研讨会旨在解决以下领域：写作，研究综述研究部分，机构审查委员会和临床研究资金来源。 该计划的招聘小组委员会已经确定了合格的学员学院范围内谁可以从这个计划中受益。 还确定了具有既定学术和培训技能的教师导师。 在第一个两年周期，委员会将挑选12名受训人员，并为他们配备适当的导师。 该计划的长期目标有三个方面：1）为学员提供理论和实践技能，使他们能够成功地竞争同行评审的指导职业奖励资金; 2）进一步加强已经致力于从事临床研究的研究人员的努力，并促进他们进行资助研究的能力（或待定）由职业或初级研究奖;和3）完善完成职业生涯中期教师调查员的技能，从而促进他们的导师角色。 凭借其在临床研究资源和承诺的历史，以及与密尔沃基地区内的其他学院和研究所的联盟互动，威斯康星州医学院应该提供一个良好的环境，以实现这些目标。

This application requests support to develop, implement, and evaluate a college-wide core curriculum for clinical research investigators training at the Medical College of Wisconsin (MCW). The program will offer a 2-year course which includes a general platform in the basic areas of methodology, theory, and conceptualization skills vital for all clinical investigators, as well as a specialized platform of individualized mentorship in areas specific to the trainee's research career. The program is designed for existing junior faculty, graduates of research training programs, and fellows committed to human-related clinical research pursuits. In year one candidates will be trained through structured didactic seminars, group presentation of their research, and one-to-one research mentorship. The structured seminars in year one are developed to address the following basic areas: orientation to clinical reasearch, ethics and integrity in science, research designs, biostatistical analysis, and advances in scientific techniques. In year two they receive additional training through structured workshops, as well as research presentations and one-on-one mentorship. The structured workship seminars in year two are developed to address the following areas: writing, the research review study section, the Institutional Review Board, and sources for clinical research funding. The program recruitment subcommittee has already identified qualified trainees college-wide who could benefit from this program. Faculty preceptors with established academic and training skills have also been identified. For the first 2-year cycle, the committee will select 12 trainees and match them with appropriate mentors. The long-term goal of this program is 3-fold: 1) provide trainees with theoretical and practical skills that will allow them to compete successfully for peer-reviewed mentored career awards funding; 2) further enhance efforts of investigators already committed to pursuing clinical research and facilitating their ability to conduct research funded (or pending) by a career or junior research award; and 3) refine the skills of accomplished mid-career faculty investigators, thereby facilitating their mentorship roles. With its history in clinical research resources and commitments, as well as its consortium interactions with other colleges and institutes within the Milwaukee area, The Medical College of Wisconsin should provide an excellent environment in which to fulfill these goals.
