Psychiatric Research Residency Training Track

描述（由申请人提供）：此申请是为精神病学部门建立一个为期4年的住院医师研究培训轨道（RRTT），与普通精神病学住院医师计划一起运行。我们的计划是由最近的医学研究所报告推动的，该报告建议专门的精神病学研究培训作为扭转精神病学研究人员数量少的部分解决方案。我们的RRTT将强调分子和转化神经科学，因为这是我们优秀教师中相当一部分的优势。我们将积极招募研究兴趣与我们的优势相匹配的住院医师。R25将允许我们修改普通精神病学住院医师，并丰富非RRTT住院医师的研究素养和经验。这项申请的意义在于，在五年（住院医师+奖学金）结束时，该领域将获得10名高素质的研究人员，他们接受了最现代的神经科学和精神病学技术的培训。RRTT为每位住院医师提供了一个明确的独立进程，以巩固他们未来的成功。这些人将接受培训，以接近具有潜在临床应用的研究问题作为他们工作的基本终点。他们的研究经历将在实验室进行，这些实验室的项目通常与校园内其他世界知名的实验室有联系。这项申请的创新之处在于：(i)其杰出的教师，他们在指导研究人员成为独立研究者方面有着悠久的历史，（ii）根据每个RRTT居民的需求量身定制的研究经验，包括访问实验室的外部专家或邀请到校园，以及（iii） RRTT行政人员对该计划的积极评估和监督。评估将包括设定明确的目标和结果，RRTT的表现将由内部和外部小组进行审查，以不断改进RRTT和住院医师计划。在资助期结束时，我们将发表一篇关于我们正在提议的项目的积极和消极经验的文章。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is for the Department of Psychiatry to establish a 4-year resident research training track (RRTT) to run alongside the general psychiatry residency program. Our plan is driven by the recent Institute of Medicine report that recommends dedicated psychiatry research training as a partial solution to reversing the low number of psychiatrist researchers. Our RRTT will emphasize molecular arid translational neuroscience, because that is the strength of a considerable portion of our outstanding Faculty. We will actively recruit residents whose research interests match our strengths. The R25 will allow us to modify the general psychiatry residency and enrich the research literacy and experience of residents not in the RRTT The significance of this application is that at the end of five years (residency + Fellowship) the field will receives 10 highly qualified researchers trained in the most modern techniques of neuroscience and psychiatry The RRTT provides a clear progression for each resident toward independence in order to consolidate their future success. These individuals will be trained to approach research questions with potential clinical applications as an essential end point of their work. Their research experiences wilI be in laboratories whose programs are often linked to other world-renown laboratories around the campus. The innovative aspects of this application are: (i) its outstanding Faculty who have a long history of mentoring researchers to become independent investigators, (ii) a research experience that is tailored to each RRTT resident's needs including access to external experts in their laboratories or invited onto campus, and (iii) an active evaluation and oversight of the program, by the administrative staff of the RRTT. The evaluation will include setting clear goals and outcomes, and the performance of the RRTT will be reviewed internally and by an external panel so as to constantly improve the RRTT and the residency program. At the end of the funding period we will publish an article on the positive and negative experiences of the program we are proposing.
