TRANSFUSION MEDICINE RESEARCH TRAINING PROGRAM

这一培训计划的目的是为医学博士、医学博士/博士博士后在多学科领域的输血医学(TM)研究生涯做准备。研究员将在有经验的导师的实验室进行独立研究，导师是从不同兴趣的教师中挑选出来的，他们的兴趣包括细胞膜(红细胞、血小板)结构和功能、自身免疫和肿瘤疾病的免疫生物学、造血学和病毒学。为该项目选择的13名导师包括10名资深科学家，他们拥有丰富的博士前和博士后研究员培训经验，并与当前积极的实验室间合作。该培训计划的独特之处在于提供了一个基础广泛的研究环境，以及一个完善的临床TM奖学金培训计划。这为研究员提供了进行重点研究培训或纳入临床TM奖学金培训的机会，这取决于他们以前的教育经验。在最初的4年培训资助期间(1994年至今)，9名研究员成功地完成了该计划，其中一些人获得了研究资金(例如KO8)或设立了长期职位，负责研究工作，如TM初级教员或研究科学家。

The purpose of this training program is to prepare M.D., M.D./Ph.D. postdoctoral fellows for research careers in the multi-disciplinary field of Transfusion Medicine (TM). Fellows will conduct independent research in the laboratory of an experienced mentor, selected among faculty with diverse interests including cell membrane (red blood cells, platelets) structure and function, immunobiology of autoimmune and neoplastic disorders, hematopoiesis and virology. The 13 mentors selected for this program include 10 senior scientists with extensive experience training both predoctoral and postdoctoral fellows, and with current, active, interlaboratory collaborations. The uniqueness of this training program lies in the availability of a broad-based research environment coupled with a well established clinical TM fellowship training program. This provides fellows with the opportunity to pursue focused research training or to incorporate clinical TM fellowship training depending upon their previous educational experience. During the first 4 years of training grant support (1994 to present), 9 fellows have successfully completed the program, some acquiring research funding (e.g. KO8) or establishing permanent positions with research responsibilities as TM junior faculty or research scientists.
