Medical Scientist Training Program

项目总结 迈阿密大学米勒医学院医学科学家培训计划的目标 (UMMSM)是提供一个丰富、支持性和包容性的培训环境，促进 多元化、事业心强、以目标为导向的内科科学家，他们将追求与国家 循证医学的艺术研究。米勒学校已做好充分准备，确保 MSTP。不断扩大基础和临床资助研究，成立了几个新的NIH 资助的中心和培训赠款、机构对新基础设施和核心设施的投资 过去10年，以及迈阿密多样化的人口和进入拉丁美洲和加勒比的机会，使 UMMSM是MSTP培训的杰出场所。从学院和大学招收学生 他们是通过注重研究经验的全面审查过程挑选出来的， 性格，以及对研究和医学双重职业的热情。南佛罗里达州独特的人口统计数据 是招收多元化MSTP学生群体的关键因素，MSTP学生群体有36%的实习生 在医学界代表性不足(26%的少数民族代表性不足)。2017年MSTP T32的获奖情况 增加了我们的应用程序的数量和质量，并促进了更强大的机构和 项目领导支持，使项目规模在5年内增长了30%。该计划是 与新设立的UMMSM NextGenMD课程很好地结合在一起，高度重视学术 活动。该课程允许MSTP学生在7-8年内有效地完成他们的双学位课程 在经历了临床前课程(14个月)和临床助理(第一名)后，纳入了博士培训 6个月)。学生可以在8个跨学科项目中选择博士培训项目 生物医学，以及公共卫生科学和生物医学工程专业。毕业生 提供培训，以培养开展严格和道德研究所需的能力 MSTP对正规培训的支持，以加强富有成效的导师-学员关系，并由 一系列其他MSTP活动，增强建立坚实的内科科学家独特身份所需的技能。 其中包括为医学院早期阶段的MSTP学生举办的期刊俱乐部，纵向临床 在研究生培训期间的经验，包括接触临床研究相关活动，以及 学生主导的活动，将所有MSTP学生聚集在一起，例如每月一次的科学与专业 发展研讨会，每月临床病例回顾，年度MSTP学生研究研讨会， 年度务虚会及其他职业发展和社会活动。该计划的可衡量结果 包括良好出版记录、NRSA研究金申请的高成功率以及 完美的住院医生配对。总体而言，MSTP提供了一种集成的培训体验，可以促进真正的 文化和学习如何产生创新研究并将其转化为医学的热情。

PROJECT SUMMARY The goal of the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) at the University of Miami Miller School of Medicine (UMMSM) is to provide a rich, supportive and inclusive training environment that fosters the development of diverse, highly motivated and goal-oriented physician scientists who will pursue careers matching state of the art research with evidence-based medicine. The Miller School is fully positioned to ensure the success of the MSTP. The continuous expansion of basic and clinical funded research, the establishment of several new NIH funded Centers and training grants, the Institutional investment in new infrastructure and core facilities over the last 10 years, as well as Miami’s diverse population and access to Latin America & the Caribbean, make UMMSM an outstanding place for MSTP training. Students are recruited from colleges and universities throughout the US and are selected through a holistic review process that focuses on research experience, character, and passion for a dual research and medicine career. South Florida’s unique demographics has been a key element in the recruitment of a diverse MSTP student body, which has 36% of trainees underrepresented in medicine (26% underrepresented minorities). The award of a MSTP T32 in 2017 has increased the number and quality of our applications and has also facilitated stronger institutional and programmatic leadership support, resulting in a 30% increase in the program size in 5 years. The Program is well integrated with the newly established UMMSM NextGenMD curriculum that highly values scholarly activities. This curriculum allows MSTP students to complete their dual degree in 7-8 years, and effectively incorporates PhD training after exposure to both preclinical coursework (14 months) and clinical clerkships (1st 6 months). Students are able to select among PhD training programs in eight interdisciplinary Programs in Biomedical Sciences, as well as Programs in Public Health Sciences and Biomedical Engineering. Graduate training that confers the development of competencies needed to carry out rigorous and ethical research and MSTP support of formal training to enhance productive mentor-mentee relationships are complemented by a series of other MSTP activities enhancing skills necessary to build a solid physician scientist unique identity. These include a journal club for MSTP students in their early years of medical school, longitudinal clinical experiences during graduate training which includes exposure to clinical research related activities, and student-led activities that bring together all MSTP students, such as monthly Scientific & Professional Development Workshops, monthly Clinical Case Reviews, annual MSTP Student Research Symposium, annual Retreat and other career development and social activities. Measurable outcomes of the program include, among others, strong publication records, high success rates of NRSA fellowship applications, and excellent residency matches. Overall the MSTP provides an integrated training experience that fosters a true culture and passion for learning how to generate and translate innovative research to medicine.
