Clinical Research Career Development (RMI)

产品说明：（申请人提供）：本申请旨在约翰霍普金斯医疗机构建立多学科临床研究开发项目。 下一代临床研究者将需要深入的知识，技能，态度和早期研究经验，使他们能够与其他学科的同事进行有效的沟通和工作。 建议的具体目标是：1）培养具有创造力和成功的研究人员，他们可以领导和参与多学科团队的研究项目; 2）为来自不同学科和专业的学员提供临床研究职业发展的核心知识，技能，态度和经验; 3）将各机构的临床研究培训整合到一个共同的途径中，并有机会强调不同的翻译界面（从工作台到床边，从床边到实践/人群，以及复杂的定量方法）;以及4）增加参与临床研究的代表性不足的少数民族的人数，并加强他们的准备工作。 该计划将汇集医学，公共卫生和护理学院强大的多学科单位，特别是韦尔奇预防，流行病学和临床研究中心，临床调查研究生培训计划和一般临床研究中心。 研究人员将为即将招募的学员创建一个统一的计划，其中包括结构化的核心课程。 受训者将参加团队，并由来自11个不同学科的110名科学家中的至少两名指导受训者产生的研究问题，以培养合作态度和技能。 为了增加从事临床调查的少数民族人数，霍华德大学医学院和牙科学院的导师、学员和初级教师将有资格参加。 现有计划的整合和以学员为中心的多学科学习的重点将提高学员进行有意义的影响科学研究的能力。 最终目标是培养一支具有强大基础的研究人员队伍，以促进跨学科研究，从而帮助他们产生新知识，加快实验室中新发现和创新的转化，将其转化为实践，并转化为人群以改善健康。

DESCRIPTION: (provided by applicant): This application seeks to establish a Multidisciplinary Clinical Research Development Program at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions. The next generation of clinical investigators will need in-depth knowledge, skills, attitudes, and early research experiences that allow them to communicate and work effectively with their colleagues from other disciplines. The proposed specific aims are: 1) to develop creative and successful researchers who can lead and participate in research projects with multidisciplinary teams; 2) to provide trainees from different disciplines and specialties with the core knowledge, skills, attitudes, and experience for career development in clinical research; 3) to integrate clinical research training across institution into a common pathway with opportunities to emphasize different translational interfaces (bench to bedside, bedside to practice/population, and complex quantitative methods); and 4) to increase the number of and strengthen the preparation of under-represented minorities participating in clinical research. The program will bring together strong multidisciplinary units across the Schools of Medicine, Public Health, and Nursing, particularly the Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology, and Clinical Research, the Graduate Training Program in Clinical Investigation, and the General Clinical Research Center. The investigators will create a unified program with a structured core curriculum for the cohort of trainees to be recruited. Trainees will participate in teams and be mentored by at least two of 110 scientists from eleven different disciplines on trainee-generated research questions in order to foster collaborative attitudes and skills. To improve the number of minorities with careers focused on clinical investigation, mentors, trainees, and junior faculty from Howard University's Colleges of Medicine and Dentistry will be eligible to participate. Integration of existing programs and a focus on trainee-centered, multidisciplinary learning will enhance the capability of trainees to perform scientific studies with meaningful impact. The ultimate goal is to prepare a cadre of researchers with a strong foundation to stimulate cross-disciplinary research, thereby helping them to generate new knowledge that will speed translation of new discoveries and innovation in the laboratory to the bedside, into practice, and into populations to improve health.
