Medical Genetics Research Training Grant

描述（由申请人提供）：该研究培训计划的主要目标是培养未来医学遗传学的领导者，他们将从各种培训途径中脱颖而出。许多人将拥有医学博士学位；其他将是医学博士/博士。在儿科、医学、精神病学、病理学和其他专业领域接受过临床培训，并有资格获得培训补助金。儿科-遗传学联合住院医师也将有资格在他们的第4年和第5年住院医师。这些人的整体培训计划包括一个临床年，在此期间，研究员有大量的临床负荷，并完成他/她在人类遗传学和分子生物学方面的部分教学课程。第一年由宾夕法尼亚大学医学院和费城儿童医院（CHOP）资助，而整个培训计划的研究年份的资金则从该培训赠款中寻求。在第二年，医学博士研究员完成教学课程并开始研究训练。在第二年的大部分时间，第三年的所有时间，通常是第四年，这个人基本上100%地投入到基础科学实验室的研究中。研究机会非常多样化，在宾夕法尼亚大学14个系的39名教员的实验室进行培训。在研究期间，受训者还参加研讨会课程，参加期刊俱乐部，研究会议和部门研究务虚会，并进行最少的临床活动，不超过5%的努力。申请中要求提供这两到三年的培训津贴。医学博士实习生可能需要进一步的研究培训（不包括在培训经费中），这可能是另一个博士后研究经历，也可能是受保护的教职员工任命，并得到资深教职员工的大量指导。该基金将资助医学遗传学研究人员最多三年的研究，以及医学博士/博士两年的研究。的家伙们。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The major goal of this research training program is to train the future leaders of medical genetics who will emerge from a variety of training pathways. Many will have M.D. degrees; other will be M.D./Ph.D.s with clinical training in Pediatrics, Medicine, Psychiatry, Pathology and other specialty areas who will be eligible for support from this training grant. Combined Pediatrics-Genetics residents will also be eligible during their 4th and 5th years of residency. The overall training program for these individuals consists of one clinical year during which the fellow has a substantial clinical load and fulfills a portion of her/his didactic course work in human genetics and molecular biology. This first year is funded by the University of Pennsylvania School of Medicine and the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP), while funds for the research years of the overall training program are sought from this training grant. During the second year, the M.D. fellow completes didactic course work and begins research training. During most of the second year and all of the third year and often the fourth years, the fellow devotes essentially 100% effort to research in a basic science laboratory. Research opportunities are extremely diverse with training in the laboratories of 39 faculty from 14 departments at Penn. During the research years, the trainee also takes seminar courses, attends journal clubs, research meetings, and departmental research retreats, and carries out minimal clinical activities, not to exceed 5% effort. Training stipends for these two to three years are requested in the application. The M.D. trainee will likely require further research training (not covered by this training grant), which might be another postdoctoral research experience or a protected faculty appointment with considerable mentoring from a senior faculty member. This grant will fund up to three research years of the M.D. investigator in medical genetics, and two years for M.D./Ph.D. fellows.
