Training & Education

MDCRC培训和教育核心的总体目标是向学员提供必要的技能 将基础科学、肌肉疾病研究的进展转化为精心设计的人体临床试验。至 要想获得成功，学员必须了解 临床研究中要使用的干预措施，要接近的遗传病目标的生物学， 人类和动物研究的伦理和设计良好的临床试验的重要性 问题。这些概念将通过一系列正式课程和研讨会、与 科学家和伦理学家，与临床科学家的定期互动以及与基础科学家的互动。 在MDCRC主任和联席主任的指导下进行的指导研究将向学员介绍 从事翻译研究工作所需的实用技能。

The overall goal of the MDCRC Training and Education Core is to provide trainees with the skills necessary to translate advances in basic science muscular disease research into well-designed human clinical trials. To be successful the trainees must have an understanding of the concepts, features, and limitations of the interventions to be used in clinical studies, the biology of the inherited disease target to be approached, the ethics of human and animal research and the importance of well designed clinical trials to answer specific questions. These concepts will be taught through a series of formal courses and seminars, discussions with scientists and ethicists, regular interactions with clinical scientists and interactions with basic scientists. Mentored research under the direction of the MDCRC director and co-director will present trainees with the practical skills needed to pursue careers in translational research.
