Program in Hematology:& Cell Biology Blood Cells

描述(由申请人提供)： 我们正在请求继续支持一项成功地吸引年轻内科科学家进入学术医学的培训补助金。这笔赠款为血液学(内科、病理学、儿科、输血医学)一般临床领域的研究生临床医生提供了在基础水平上获得血细胞研究方面的培训和经验的机会。最优先考虑的是在研究生早期进行临床培训，以最大限度地增加长期学术承诺的机会。大多数被录取的实习生将是完成了1-3年临床培训的医生，研究背景有限，但也有一些实习生将持有博士学位。将为以下人员提供两到三年的血细胞分子和细胞生物学基础培训 成功的申请者。直接研究主管、项目主管和咨询委员会将为每个受训者制定正式计划，包括获得最佳培训体验所必需的课程。此外，每名学员将参加血液学和相关学科的各种正式会议，以及血液疾病分子和细胞生物学领域的国际专家举行的众多研讨会。高强度研究培训经验的坚实基础是由杰出的教师提供的，他们拥有得到良好支持的个人研究计划以及在研究和培训方面的广泛部门间合作。该计划的一个强有力的方面，也是得到加强的一个方面是 二重临床科室--基层科室结构。这从医学和生物化学的联合首席调查人员开始，并作为临床和基础部门的实习主管的平衡而扩展。由经验丰富的教员提供的最佳培训环境、广泛的现代化设施、丰富的生物材料患者来源、广泛的大学核心设施以及成功培训未来血液学学术医生的悠久历史，应可确保继续保持高成功率，培养具有分子间接口研究技能的高素质学术血液学家。 生物学和临床医学。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We are asking for continued support of a training grant which has been successful in attracting young physician-scientists into academic medicine. The grant provides an opportunity for post-graduate clinicians from the general clinical area of hematology (internal medicine, pathology, pediatrics, transfusion medicine) to gain training and experience in the study of blood cells at the fundamental level. Top priority is given to individuals early in their post-graduate clinical training so as to optimalize the chance of a long-term academic commitment. Most trainees accepted will be physicians who have completed from 1-3 years of clinical training with limited research backgrounds although some trainees will be PhD degree holders. Two to three years of fundamental training in the molecular and cell biology of blood cells will be provided to successful applicants. A formal plan for each trainee including coursework necessary for an optimum training experience will be planned by the immediate research supervisor, the program directors and the Advisory Committee. In addition, each trainee will participate in a variety of formal conferences in Hematology and related disciplines as well as numerous seminars by international experts in the areas of molecular and cell biology of blood diseases. The solid foundation for an intensive research training experience is provided by distinguished faculty with well supported individual research programs and extensive interdepartmental cooperation in research and training. A strong aspect of this program and one which as been strengthened is the dual clinical department-basic department structure. This begins with the Co-Principal Investigators from Medicine and Biochemistry and extends as a balance of trainee supervisors in both clinical and basic departments. The optimal training environment provided by the diverse experience faculty, extensive modern facilities, rich source of patients for biologic material, extensive collegiate core facilities and a long history of success in training future academic physicians in hematology should insure a continued high rate of success in preparing well-qualified academic hematologists with research skills at the interface between molecular biology and clinical medicine.
