Program-Train Predoctoral Students-Clinical Resea*(RMI)

描述（由申请人提供）： 临床研究正在迅速发展，需要越来越复杂的知识基础，早期获得先进的技能和学科之间的更多合作。本申请旨在在约翰霍普金斯医疗机构（医学院、护理学院和彭博公共卫生学院）建立一个博士前临床研究培训计划，为博士前学员在早期专业培训期间提供一套完整的临床研究接触和培训机会，并根据他们的兴趣和承诺程度量身定制。该计划建立在约翰霍普金斯大学韦尔奇预防、流行病学和临床研究中心以患者为导向的研究培训的兴趣和专业知识的坚实基础上。韦尔奇中心成立于1989年，旨在促进医学，公共卫生和护理学院之间的多学科合作。其特点是进行高影响力和高质量的多学科临床研究和培训。该中心汇集了临床研究人员，流行病学家，生物统计学家和行为科学家，分子科学家和临床专家，以应对重要的科学挑战。该中心促进了研究团队的创建（包括受训人员）与美国各地医疗机构的科学家和同事广泛合作。这一提议恰逢全面改革约翰霍普金斯医学院课程的全面努力，该课程包括许多目标，结构要素和与高质量临床研究培训共享的学习方法，为我们提供了一个独特的机会窗口，将临床研究培训有意义地嵌入我们的学习环境。我们建议：a）加强约翰霍普金斯大学的课程，为所有博士预科学员提供核心知识、态度和技能，使他们终身都有兴趣参与临床研究; B）提供有意义的短期培训，（夏季或选修）临床研究经验的博士前学员，每年，这将激发和保持他们在医学院培训和研究生培训期间对临床研究职业的兴趣，以及c）为博士前实习生提供更深入的学习经验，使他们成为模范临床研究人员（在任何学科，专业或亚专业）和临床研究教师，d）增加实习生的多样性，并最终增加参与临床研究的学术教师。我们希望培养下一代的临床研究人员，以解决复杂的健康问题，在职业发展过程中更早开始。通过这样做，我们希望为年轻学者在临床研究中的职业生涯做好最佳准备，从而加快从生物医学发现到实施治疗以改善健康的时间。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Clinical research is evolving rapidly and requires an increasingly sophisticated knowledge base, early acquisition of advanced skills and more collaboration among disciplines. This application seeks to establish a predoctoral clinical research training program at the Johns Hopkins Medical Institutions (School of Medicine, School of Nursing and Bloomberg School of Public Health) to provide an integrated set of exposures and training opportunities in clinical research for predoctoral trainees during their early professional training and tailored to their degree of interest and commitment. The proposed program builds on a strong foundation of interest and expertise in training in patient-oriented research at Johns Hopkins based in the Welch Center for Prevention, Epidemiology and Clinical Research. The Welch Center was established in 1989 to foster multidisciplinary collaboration between the Schools of Medicine, Public Health and Nursing. Its hallmark has been the conduct of high-impact and high quality multidisciplinary clinical research and training. The Center brings together clinical researchers, epidemiologists, biostatisticians and behavioral scientists with molecular scientists and clinical specialists to address important scientific challenges. The center has catalyzed the creation of research teams (including trainees) with extensive collaboration among scientists across the medical institutions and colleagues across the U.S. This proposal coincides with a sweeping effort to comprehensively reform the Johns Hopkins medical school curriculum that embraces many goals, structural elements and learning methods shared with high quality clinical research training, presenting us with a unique window of opportunity to embed clinical research training meaningfully into our learning environment. We propose to a) enhance the curriculum at Johns Hopkins to provide all predoctoral trainees with core knowledge, attitudes and skills for lifelong interest in participation in clinical research studies, b) provide meaningful short term (summer or elective) clinical research experiences for predoctoral trainees, annually, that will stimulate and maintain their interest in a clinical research career during their medical school training and post-graduate training and c) provide predoctoral trainees with a more intensive learning experience that prepares them to be exemplary clinical researchers (in any discipline, specialty or subspecialty) and teachers of clinical research and d) increase the diversity of trainees and ultimately academic faculty participating in clinical research. We hope to train the next generation of clinical researchers to address complex health problems by starting earlier in the process of career development. In doing so, we hope to optimally prepare young scholars for careers in clinical research and thereby speed the time from biomedical discovery to implementation of therapies to improve health.
