Training in Perinatal Medicine

项目摘要 该培训计划的主要目标是培养新生儿学家，产妇， 胎儿医学（MFM）专家和知道如何合作的非临床科学家 并有能力，根据个人在研究方面的功绩，识别，理解， 并解决围产期生物学和医学中的重要问题。该培训计划提供基本和 临床转化研究培训，包括围产期/发育生理学的概念和技术， 生物化学，细胞和分子生物学。据我们所知，我们是唯一的T32培训计划 以这种焦点、结构和目标来设计。学员将在展示研究成果后被任命 承诺和成就在他们的第一或第二年的奖学金/博士后培训。在他们的第一 一年，学员与教师导师在他们的主要研究项目，同时融入更广泛的 围产期生物学社区在CU-AMC通过我们的T32课程。这给了他们多学科的 围产期生物学所需的培训。在负责任的研究行为和严格的正规培训 需要研究设计和相关的数据科学和定量方法。第二年，致力于 以完成研究项目、投稿、扩大研究员的研究与 跨学科方法和进一步的职业发展培训。研究设计研讨会项目， 摘要和手稿的准备，实验室和职业管理，并提供写作。这 我们的目标是实现我们的两个具体目标。我们的主要具体目标是提供培训， 确保T32研究员短期和长期成功的环境，定义如下：1）出版物，2） 任命研究密集型职位，3）职业发展奖，4）试点和项目赠款，5） 基于研究的奖项和荣誉，以及6）科学领导职位。我们的第二个具体目标是 进一步加强与CU-AMC围产期生物学和医学相关的研究工作， 1)与T32研究员的合作手稿，2）学员的共同导师，3）联合赠款提交，以及4） 共同制定创新方案。这一目标直接使T32研究员受益，因为它模拟了 我们希望他们长期参与的合作研究。我们还将重点放在 招募NIH定义的代表性不足的少数民族到我们的T32计划， 研究和职业发展资金（每个城市资源管理受训人员12 000美元）， 新生儿医学。我们的方法使学员能够更成功地进入学术领域， 在基础或临床转化科学的职业生涯。多年来，该培训计划的毕业生 在国内和国际上取得了很高的学术地位，并对发展和 支持研究培训计划。在我们的学员中实现这种最终的研究/学术领导 这是该计划的一个主要目标。

PROJECT SUMMARY The primary goal of this Training Program is to develop academic leaders among Neonatologists, Maternal- Fetal Medicine (MFM) Specialists, and Non-Clinician Scientists who know how to work together collaboratively and have the capacity, based on personal meritorious accomplishments in research, to identify, understand, and solve important problems in Perinatal Biology and Medicine. This training program provides basic and clinical-translational research training, including concepts and techniques in perinatal/developmental physiology, biochemistry, and cell and molecular biology. To our knowledge, ours is the only T32 Training Program designed with this focus, structure, and goal. Trainees will be appointed after demonstrating research commitment and accomplishment during their late 1st or 2nd yr of fellowship/postdoctoral training. During their 1st year, trainees work with Faculty Mentors on their primary research projects while integrating into the broader perinatal biology community at CU-AMC through our T32 Curriculum. This gives them the multidisciplinary training required in Perinatal Biology. Formal training in Responsible Conduct of Research and Rigorous Research Design and Relevant Data Science and Quantitative Approaches are required. The 2nd year is devoted to the completion of the research projects, manuscript submission, expansion of the Fellow's research with interdisciplinary approaches, and further career development training. Seminar programs in research design, abstract and manuscript preparation, laboratory and career management, and grant writing are provided. This approach allows us to fulfill our two Specific Aims. Our primary specific aim is to provide the training and environment that ensures short- and long-term success of T32 Fellows as defined by: 1) publications, 2) appointment to research-intensive positions, 3) Career Development Awards, 4) Pilot and Project Grants, 5) research based awards and honors, and 6) Scientific Leadership Positions. Our secondary specific aim is to further strengthen the research endeavors related to Perinatal Biology and Medicine at CU-AMC as defined by 1) collaborative manuscripts with T32 Fellows, 2) co-mentorship of Trainees, 3) joint grant submissions, and 4) joint establishment of innovative programs. This aim directly benefits the T32 Fellows as it models the type of collaborative research we want them to engage in long-term. We also will place a major emphasis on the recruitment of NIH defined underrepresented minorities to our T32 Program with supplemental research and career development funds ($12,000 per URM Trainee) provided by the Section of Neonatology. Our approach equips the trainees with the capacity to move more successfully into academic careers in either basic or clinical-translational science. Over many years, graduates of this training program have achieved high academic positions nationally and internationally and have had major impact on developing and supporting research training programs. Attaining such ultimate research/academic leadership among our trainees is a major aim of this program.
