YALE PEDIATRIC BASIC SCIENCE TRAINING PROGRAM

描述（由申请人提供）：我们提议在耶鲁大学儿科部门开展基础科学培训计划。该计划的长期目标是促进与儿科学相关的基础科学研究的内科科学家的职业发展。这个项目将以我们在培训医师科学家方面的丰富经验和专业知识为基础。该申请要求每年提供一名住院医师和两名医学博士或医学博士/博士博士后奖学金。这一要求基于以下几个因素：1)对致力于研究发育和儿童相关疾病的内科科学家的持续迫切需求。2)我们的培训师资提供了更多的机会。3)申请耶鲁奖学金项目的人数增加。我们在研究员培训方面的经验表明，研究员需要三年或三年以上的研究培训来发展基础科学研究所需的技能。我们相信，一个专门致力于基础科学研究的住院医师和奖学金项目将促进儿科研究科学家的发展。该项目将有几个关键组成部分：(1)建立儿科住院医师的研究课程和研究轨道。(2)招收对儿科研究感兴趣的博士后。(3)为研究员匹配优秀的研究导师。(4)参与核心教学研究课程。(5)批判性和严格的学者和项目评估。(6)建立职业指导项目。在加入该项目期间，博士后将有80%的时间专门用于研究，并将提供3年的支持。此外，将设立一个新的驻地研究轨道。这个项目的重点将放在基础科学培训上，这已经被确定为一个非常需要儿科医师科学家的领域。为了实现这些目标，我们将利用耶鲁大学专门为内科科学家培训而设立的几个项目。所有潜在的导师都有NIH的支持，大多数人都有培训儿科研究员的良好记录。请参阅所需t32相关配套表。参与部门列表如表1所示。附录表2列出了导师和级别。附录表3列出了导师部门的培训计划。附录表4列出了导师资助支持。附录表5列出了过去10年的导师培训生。附录表8列出了过去5年申请亚专业博士后奖学金的情况。预计该项目将培养杰出的儿科学者，他们将从事与儿科相关的基础科学研究的有前途的职业。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose the development of a basic science training program in the Department of Pediatrics at Yale University. The long-term goal of this program is to foster the career development of physician scientists in basic science research related to pediatrics. This program will build on our considerable experience and expertise in training physician-scientists. This application requests postdoctoral stipends for one resident and two MD or MD/PhD postdoctoral fellows per year. This request is based on several factors: 1) The ongoing critical need for physician scientists dedicated to studying development and childhood-related conditions. 2) The expanded opportunities afforded by our training faculty. 3) An increase in applicants to Yale fellowship programs. Our experience in fellow training indicates that three or more years of research training are needed for fellows to develop the skills needed for basic science research. We believe a program specifically dedicated to basic science research in residency and fellowship will lead to the development of additional research scientists in pediatrics. This program will have several key components: (1) Establishment of a research curriculum and research track for pediatric residents. (2) Recruitment of postdoctoral fellows with interests in pediatric research. (3) Matching fellows with superb research mentors. (4) Participation in a core didactic research curriculum. (5) Critical and rigorous Scholar and program evaluation. (6) Establishment of a career guidance program. While enrolled in the program, postdoctoral fellows will have 80% of their time specifically dedicated to research, and support will be provided for 3 years. In addition a new Resident Research Track will be established. The focus of this program will be on basic science training, which has been identified as an area where pediatric physician scientists are greatly needed. To achieve these goals, we will take advantage of several established programs at Yale specifically designed for physician scientist training. All potential mentors have NIH support and a most have a proven record of training pediatric fellows. Please see the required T32-related supporting tables. Table 1 lists participating departments. Appendix Table 2 lists mentors and rank. Appendix table 3 lists mentor department training programs. Appendix Table 4 lists mentor grant support. Appendix Table 5 lists mentor trainees over the past 10 years. Appendix Table 8 lists post-doctoral applicants for subspecialty fellowships over the past 5 years. It is anticipated that this program will lead to the training of exceptional pediatric-based Scholars, who will embark on promising careers focusing on pediatric-related basic science research.
