Training in Pharmacological Sciences

项目概要/摘要： 该培训计划的长期目标是通过严格的培训培养多元化的员工队伍 在生物医学科学领域，培养对药理学原理的深刻理解， 科学家们将很好地参与将基础科学发现推向更高层次的过程， 需要治疗。这项培训将在一个跨学科和包容性的环境中完成， 来自多个机构的学员聚集在一起，他们代表了广泛的科学兴趣和共同的愿望 了解安全有效疗法开发的基本原则。一组3名学员 将被任命为第二和第三年的研究生培训，在他们的培训阶段， 药理学特定的培训是最好的交付和巩固。我们的目标是培养科学家， 药理学学科的原则谁是唯一准备确定和解决研究问题 在生物医学科学中。掌握药理学原理将使学员能够在以下方面担任领导者： 将发现转化为治疗方法。为此，我们制定了一个博士前培训计划，将： 为每位学员提供药理学学科的基础知识，如受体理论， 药物代谢和药代动力学;发展成功所需的专业技能;支持 个人研究指导，在感兴趣的生物医学科学领域提供指导性研究， 培训生与特定学科的培训;并评估个别培训生和计划目标的实现情况。 通过基于能力的评估，就受训人员的进展情况提供及时和可操作的反馈 该计划与一组志同道合的博士前培训项目合作制定。的各个方面 拟议的计划得到了全面评估计划的支持，该计划旨在确保发展 并提供反馈以改进整体培训计划。这些经验是 补充以建立研究道德，科学严谨性，科学数据呈现方面的能力，以及 评估数据。我们向学员传达终身学习的期望和工具， 成功的重要组成部分。将有意识地解决物质主义，以传授技能的领域， 作为沟通、团队合作、指导和自我评估，以帮助培养韧性， 正直和领导力这些计划的目标得到了长期优势的支持，包括历史 伙伴机构之间的合作，学员过去的成功，以及一个充满活力，知识渊博的 支持药理学研究的多样化研究环境。我们的目标是培养出 将成为学术和工业研究，政府和监管事务， 和教育

Project Summary/Abstract: The long-term goal of this training program is to develop members of a diverse workforce with rigorous training in an area of biomedical science and to foster a deep understanding of the principles of pharmacology to create scientists who will be well positioned to participate in the process of moving basic science discoveries to much needed therapies. This training will be accomplished in an interdisciplinary and inclusive environment that brings together trainees from multiple institutions who represent a broad range of scientific interests and a shared desire to understand the principles that underlie the development of safe and effective therapies. A cohort of 3 trainees will be appointed for the second and third year of their graduate training, a stage in their training where pharmacology-specific training is best delivered and solidified. We aim to train scientists equipped with the principles of the discipline of pharmacology who are uniquely prepared to identify and solve research questions in the biomedical sciences. Mastery of the principles of pharmacology will allow trainees to serve as leaders in transitioning discoveries into therapies. To this end we have developed a predoctoral training program that will: provide each trainee with the foundational tenants of the discipline of pharmacology such as receptor theory, drug metabolism, and pharmacokinetics; develop the professional skills necessary for success; support individual research mentoring that provides directed research in an area of biomedical science of interest to the trainee alongside discipline-specific training; and evaluate the attainment of individual trainee and program goals. Timely and actionable feedback on the progress of trainees is provided by a competency-based assessment plan developed in collaboration with a select group of like-minded predoctoral training programs. All facets of the proposed program are supported by a comprehensive evaluation plan designed to both assure the development of individual trainees and provide feedback to improve the overall training program. These experiences are supplemented to build competence in research ethics, scientific rigor, presentation of scientific data, and assessment of data. We convey to trainees the expectation and the tools to pursue life-long learning as an essential component for success. Professionalism will be intentionally addressed to impart skills in areas such as communication, teamwork, mentoring, and self-assessment in order to aid in the development of resilience, integrity, and leadership. These program aims are supported by longstanding strengths that include the history of collaboration amongst the partner institutions, the past success of trainees, and a dynamic, intellectually diverse research environment that supports pharmacological investigation. Our goal is to produce trainees who will become leaders in careers found in academic and industrial research, government and regulatory affairs, and education.
