Neuroscience Resident Research Program

描述（由申请人提供）：项目描述：本提案描述了马萨诸塞州总医院（MGH）和哈佛医学院（HMS）布里格姆妇女医院（BWH）神经病学和神经外科住院医师的研究培训计划。该计划结合了这些校园提供的各种令人兴奋的合作研究机会，以及一个专门的神经科学导师核心小组。导师已经由PI在研究活动的基础上精心挑选，在成功的研究生涯的早期阶段指导临床医生的经验，并致力于将神经病学和神经外科住院医师发展成为有效的医生科学家。指导委员会在创建该应用程序期间定期举行会议，并将密切监督驻地研究培训经验的所有方面。 公共卫生相关性：人们广泛认识到需要对神经系统疾病进行转化和临床研究。神经病学和神经外科住院实习生是正在完成临床培训的年轻医生，他们对当前技术的局限性有第一手的了解。马萨诸塞州总医院和哈佛医学院布里格姆妇女医院的许多住院医生都有广泛的研究背景，并表示对神经学研究感兴趣。这个应用程序将链接在哈佛系统中的研究资源的巨大深度和广度，以一小群专门的高级神经科学家。这些科学家是活跃的研究人员，他们有丰富的经验培训年轻的医生研究人员，并深切关注神经学研究的未来。这些资深科学家将担任导师，指导神经病学住院医师的初步研究经验。一个指导委员会将帮助匹配居民和导师，并将监测该计划的效率的各个方面。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Project Description: This proposal describes the Research Training Program for Neurology and Neurosurgery Residents at Massachusetts General Hospital (MGH) and Brigham and Women's Hospital (BWH) of Harvard Medical School (HMS). The program combines the exciting variety of collaborative research opportunities available at these campuses with a dedicated core group of neuroscience mentors. Mentors have been carefully selected by the PIs on the basis of research activity, experience guiding clinicians in the early stages of successful research careers, and commitment to this program to develop neurology and neurosurgery residents into effective physician-scientists. A steering committee has been meeting regularly during the creation of this application and will closely oversee all aspects of the resident research training experience. Public Health Relevance: There is a widely recognized need for translational and clinical research in neurological diseases. Neurology and neurosurgery resident trainees are young physicians who are completing their clinical training and have first-hand knowledge of the limits of current technologies. Many of the residents at Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospitals of Harvard Medical School have extensive research backgrounds, and have expressed interest in neurological research. This application will link the tremendous depth and breadth of research resources available in the Harvard system to a small group of dedicated senior neuroscientists. These scientists are active researchers who have abundant experience training young physician researchers and who care deeply about the future of neurological research. These senior scientists will serve as mentors to guide the initial research experience of the neurology residents. A steering committee will help match residents and mentors and will monitor all aspects of the program's efficacy.
