Neuroscience Resident Research Program

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一份更新提案，描述了马萨诸塞州总医院（MGH）和哈佛医学院（HMS）布莱根妇女医院（BWH）的神经病学和神经外科住院医师研究培训计划。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，并在两级系统中对齐了一个专门的神经科学导师核心小组，其中包括负责R25候选人整体职业发展的“网关”导师和直接负责候选人科学活动的“研究”导师。导师已根据研究活动精心挑选，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。此外，一个指导委员会将密切监督驻地研究培训经验的所有方面。该计划在其前5年的资助中已经取得了巨大的成功，其中包括23名学员，他们制作了许多具有高影响力的第一作者出版物，并获得了K12和K23基金会的资助。这种计划结构建立在这些成功的基础上，以确保神经病学和神经外科住院医师获得最高水平的培训，以成为杰出的医生科学家。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a renewal proposal describing 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 aligned in a two tiered system which includes a 'gateway' mentor responsible for the overall career development of the R25 candidate and a 'research' mentor directly responsible for the scientific activities of the candidate. Mentors have been carefully selected 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. In addition, a steering committee will closely oversee all aspects of the resident research training experience. This program has already had tremendous success in its first 5 years of funding which has included 23 trainees who have produced numerous high-impact first author publications and earned foundation as well as K12 and K23 funding. This programmatic structure builds on these successes to ensure that neurology and neurosurgical residents obtain the highest level of training possible to launch careers as outstanding physician-scientists.
