NHGRI/DIR Medical Genetics Training Programs

医学遗传学培训计划负责培训临床遗传学、实验室遗传学和基因组学、临床和医学生化遗传学方面的医生和博士水平的科学家，使其成为有资格参加美国医学遗传学委员会提供的认证考试的委员会。 医学遗传学培训计划包括：医学遗传学和基因组医学住院医师培训计划、儿科和医学遗传学与基因组医学联合住院医师培训计划、母胎医学和医学遗传学与基因组医学联合住院医师培训计划、生殖与医学遗传学和基因组医学联合住院医师培训计划、医学生化遗传学住院医师培训计划、临床生化遗传学住院医师培训计划、实验室遗传学和基因组学住院医师培训计划。培训地点包括：美国国立卫生研究院临床中心、国家儿童医学中心、约翰霍普金斯大学、沃尔特里德陆军医学中心、Quest诊断实验室和GeneDx实验室。这些项目的毕业生有资格参加各自专业的委员会认证考试，并被录取以在大学环境中担任学术职位或运营基因诊断实验室。这些项目为寻求临床遗传学、细胞遗传学、分子遗传学、临床生化遗传学和医学生化遗传学委员会认证的医学博士和博士提供培训。自1997年以来，我们在这些专业方面培训了180多名研究员。 临床、生化遗传学和儿科/医学遗传学研究员在国立卫生研究院担任全职职位。参加实验室遗传学和基因组学计划的个人在根据该计划/NHGRI支持的基础设施进行培训时，从他们的实验室获得工资。NHGRI支持的基础设施包括教师、实验室设置以及一次性用品、课程材料、科学会议和书籍的旅行津贴。该计划因其遗传学培训的深度和广度以及培训学员的数量而在全国范围内得到认可。国立卫生研究院的精英研究环境也为研究员提供了一个独特的机会，在他们的培训期间进行研究，优化他们成为遗传学世界未来领导者的潜力。

The Medical Genetics Training Program is responsible for training physicians and Ph.D. level scientists in clinical genetics, laboratory genetics and genomics, clinical and medical biochemical genetics to become Board eligible to sit for the certification exam offered by the American Board of Medical Genetics. The Medical Genetics Training Program includes: the Medical Genetics and Genomic Medicine Residency Training Program, the Combined Pediatrics and Medical Genetics and Genomic Medicine Residency Training Program, the Combined Maternal Fetal Medicine and Medical Genetics and Genomic Medicine Residency Training Program, the Combined Reproductive and Medical Genetics and Genomic Medicine Residency Training Program, the Medical Biochemical Genetics Residency Training Program, the Clinical Biochemical Genetics Fellowship Training Program, the Laboratory Genetics and Genomics Fellowship Training Program. Sites of training include: the NIH Clinical Center, Children's National Medical Center, Johns Hopkins University, Walter Reed Army Medical Center, Quest Diagnostic laboratories and GeneDx laboratories. Graduates of these programs are eligible to sit for Board certification exam in their specialty and matriculate to take academic positions in University settings or to run genetic diagnostic laboratories., the NIH/Children's National Medical Center Combined Pediatrics Medical Genetics Residency Program. These programs provide training for MDs and or Ph.Ds who seek Board certification in Clinical Genetics, Cytogenetics, Molecular Genetics, Clinical Biochemical Genetics and Medical Biochemical Genetics. Since 1997 we have trained over 180 fellows in these specialties. The Clinical, Biochemical Genetics and Pediatric/Medical Genetics Fellows hold full time positions at the National Institutes of Health. Individuals enrolled in the Laboratory Genetics and Genomics program have salaries from their labs while they train under the Program/NHGRI supported infrastructure. NHGRI supported infrastructure includes faculty, laboratory settings with budget for disposables, course materials, travel allowance for scientific meetings and books. This program is nationally recognized for both its depth and breadth of training in genetics as well as the number of trainees it has produced. The elite research setting of the National Institutes of Health also provide Fellows with a unique opportunity to do research during their training optimizing their potential to be future leaders in the world of genetics.
