Respiratory Research Training Grant

描述（由申请人提供）： 该计划的目的是培养医生-科学家或博士后生物科学家，以多学科协作的方式进行肺部和重症监护医学的临床相关研究，从而为他们的学术生涯做好准备，这些职业的特点是独立的研究生产力和其他人在这些学科的成功培训。 该计划的显着特点是其培训教师的质量和专业知识，其多学科和多样化的研究方法的成功整合，以及其在培养院士的成功。 研究培训可在三个轨道：呼吸细胞和分子生物学;综合呼吸生理学;和临床调查（CI）。每个轨道都有经验丰富的导师为学员提供了丰富的研究课题，一个研究学习小组作为每周或每隔一周举行会议的中心焦点，并建议教学课程工作，以丰富研究培训经验，使学员接触到更广泛的方法和研究课题。 CI轨道包括在流行病学或卫生服务部门的MPH或MS程序中注册。 除了这三个轨道，还有一个翻译研究培训计划。 参加一个主要培训轨道的学员谁希望成为翻译研究者接受有限的交叉培训，在一个替代学科。 他们参加两个轨道的研究学习小组，并在扩大辅导计划。 该计划的特点是第一年（临床实习生）的研究导师和项目选择过程，包括由高级培训教师为每位实习生提供咨询，然后在秋季的一周内，实习生被解除临床责任，与选定的潜在导师进行面试。 指导委员会跟踪研究员在研究、训练山羊方面的进展，并提供职业咨询和学术工作安置方面的帮助。研究员在几个论坛上介绍他们的研究，包括非正式的实验室会议以及更有组织的研究小组，大学范围内的肺部研究会议以及区域和国家会议。 培训包括指导手稿和赠款写作和审查过程中的海报和幻灯片研究演示文稿以及手稿和赠款。 该计划强调以道德和科学负责的方式进行研究，并持续致力于吸引来自代表性不足的少数民族的个人。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this program is to train physician-scientist or post-doctoral PhD biologic scientists in a multidisciplinary collaborative approach to clinically relevant research in pulmonary and critical care medicine, and thus to prepare them for academic careers characterized by independent research productivity and the successful training of others in these disciplines. The program's distinguishing characteristics are the quality and expertise of its training faculty, its successful integration of multiple disciplines and diverse research methodologies, and its success in training academicians. Research training is available in three tracks: respiratory cell and molecular biology; integrative respiratory physiology; and clinical investigation (CI). Each track has a critical mass of experienced mentors providing a rich range of research topics for the trainee, a research study group as a central focus which meets weekly or every other week, and recommended didactic course work to enrich the research training experience by exposing the trainee to a broader range of methodology and research topics. The CI track includes enrollment in an MPH or MS program in the Departments of either Epidemiology or Health Services. In addition to the three tracks, there is a translational research training program. Trainees enrolled in one of the primary training tracks who desire to become translational investigators receive limited cross-training in an alternate discipline. They participate in the research study groups of both tracks and in an expanded mentoring program. The program features a process of research mentor and project selection by the first year (clinical trainees) including counseling each trainee by senior training faculty followed by a week in the fall during which trainees are relieved of their clinical responsibilities to conduct interviews with selected potential mentors. Mentoring committees track the fellows' progress toward their research training goats and provide career counseling and help in academic job placement. Fellows present their research in several forums including informally at laboratory meetings as well as in more structured research study groups, a University-wide pulmonary research conference and at regional and national meetings. The training includes instruction in manuscript and grant writing and a review process for poster and slide research presentations as well as for manuscripts and grants. The program stresses the conduct of research in an ethical and scientifically responsible manner and has an on-going commitment to attract individuals from under-represented minorities.
