Critical Care Training Program

 描述（由申请人提供）：此机构培训补助金的续期申请旨在为博士后学员提供研究培训，他们将从事与重症监护相关的职业。该培训计划将在埃默里重症监护中心和埃默里大学医学院外科系联合开展。它将是多学科的性质，在外科，医学，儿科，生物医学信息学，麻醉学，生物化学和生物医学工程部门的教师参加培训计划。培训计划为期两年，所有申请人必须具有研究生学位（MD，PhD或同等学历）。我们建议在五年期间共培训17名学员。该培训计划的目标是提供基于临床医生和研究人员之间强有力合作的重症监护研究方面的尖端培训。项目主任/主要研究者是埃默里大学外科教授、埃默里重症监护中心副主任克雷格库珀史密斯。PI/PD将与由Timothy Buchman，MD，PhD（外科教授，Emory重症监护中心主任）和Greg Martin，MD（医学教授，Emory重症监护中心研究主任）组成的执行委员会密切合作。该计划有13个额外的导师，他们在与重症监护相关的领域有着广泛的研究兴趣，从氧化应激到ARDS的代谢组学，再到重症监护病房的实施科学。该计划允许学员选择传统的实验室轨道或临床轨道，他们也将获得临床研究理学硕士学位。有机会跨越整个年龄范围的重大疾病-从新生儿到老年人。为了提供各种各样的机会，导师在亚特兰大地区的以下类型的医院工作-学术（埃默里大学医院），公共/安全网（格雷迪纪念医院），社区（埃默里大学医院市中心），联邦资助（亚特兰大退伍军人事务医疗中心）和儿科（亚特兰大埃格尔斯顿儿童医院）。最终，研究培训计划旨在反映临床重症监护的协作和跨学科性质，并培养独立的研究人员， to improve改善the outcome结果of patients病人in the intensive加强care护理unit单元.

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This renewal submission for an institutional training grant is aimed at providing research training for postdoctoral trainees who will pursue careers related to critical care. The training program will be jointly based in the Emory Critical Care Center and in the Department of Surgery at Emory University School of Medicine. It will be multidisciplinary in nature, with faculty in the Departments of Surgery, Medicine, Pediatrics, Biomedical Informatics, Anesthesiology, Biochemistry and Biomedical Engineering participating in the training program. The training program is two years of length, and all applicants must have a graduate level degree (MD, PhD or equivalent). We propose to train a total of 17 trainees over the 5 year period. The goal of this training program is to provide cutting-edge training in critical care research founded upon strong collaborations among clinicians and investigators. The program director/principal investigator is Craig Coopersmith, Professor of Surgery at Emory University and the Associate Director of the Emory Critical Care Center. The PI/PD will interface closely with an executive committee made up of Timothy Buchman, MD, PhD (Professor of Surgery, Director Emory Critical Care Center) and Greg Martin, MD (Professor of Medicine, Director of Research, Emory Critical Care Center). The program has 13 additional mentors with widely varying research interests in domains related to critical care ranging from oxidative stress to metabolomics of ARDS to implementation science in the intensive care unit. The program allows trainees to choose either a traditional laboratory-based track or a clinical track where they will also obtain a Master of Science in Clinical Research. There are opportunities that span the entire age range of critical illness - from neonates to geriatrics. To provide a diverse set of opportunities, mentors are based at the following types of hospitals in the Atlanta area - academic (Emory University Hospital), public/safety-net (Grady Memorial Hospital), community (Emory University Hospital Midtown), federally-funded (Atlanta Veterans Affairs Medical Center), and pediatrics (Children's Hospital of Atlanta at Egleston). Ultimately, the research training program is designed to reflect the collaborative and interdisciplinary nature of clinical critical care and to develop independent researchers dedicated to improving the outcomes of patients in the intensive care unit.
