Research Training Program in Disease-Oriented Neuroscience

描述(由申请者提供)：项目描述：该培训计划的目的是在宾夕法尼亚大学神经学住院期间提供重要的研究经验，作为一种手段，加速我们绝大多数以学术为导向的受训人员在住院和研究职业发展之间的过渡。该计划将在一家以研究为导向的大型机构进行，该机构有一个住院医师项目，培训美国一些最优秀的候选人，该项目具有足够的灵活性，可以鼓励有意义的临床培训中断，而不会影响神经学住院医师的重要目标。符合条件的居民将通过管理委员会申请该项目，通过与研究导师共同开发研究项目来提供研究能力的证据。然后，他们将能够在项目上投入6-12个月的时间，在项目结束时返回驻地实习计划。预计在此期间从临床培训中收集的数据将导致作为博士后实习生的进一步研究，以及以后的研究。培训计划将由不同部门的经验丰富的临床和实验室研究人员进行，他们在促进年轻职业方面有过往记录，包括但不限于神经学、神经科学、生物工程和医学。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Program Description: The aim of this training program is provide a significant research experience during the neurology residence at the University of Pennsylvania, as a means of accelerating the transition between residency and research career development for our overwhelmingly academically-oriented trainees. The program will be conducted in a large research-oriented institution with a residency program that trains some of the best candidates in the country and that has enough flexibility to encourage a meaningful hiatus from clinical training without compromising the important goals of a neurology residency. Eligible residents will apply to the program through an administrative committee, providing evidence of research aptitude through the development of a research project in conjunction with a research mentor. They will then be able to devote 6-12 months to a project, returning to the residency program at its conclusion. It is expected that the data gathered during this hiatus from clinical training will lead to further research as post-doctoral trainees, and beyond. The training program will be conducted by experienced clinical and laboratory research faculty in various departments with a track record in promoting young careers, including but not limited to Neurology, Neuroscience, Bioengineering, and Medicine.
