Research in the Pathogenesis of Hematologic Disorders

描述（由申请人提供）： 这是纽约大学医学院多学科血液学培训项目的更新申请，该项目已存在超过42年。该计划旨在为5-6名博士后研究员提供为期两年的研究机会，由13名导师组成。培训教师包括学术血液学家和血液病理学家，他们拥有活跃的实验室，将基础科学方法应用于血液疾病的研究，以及纽约大学医学院基础科学部门的导师。在该计划内的教师之间以及与该机构的其他科学家之间有着丰富的互动。该机构的临床研究得到了NIH的认可，被指定为综合癌症中心和艾滋病中心。项目主管的研究横跨这两个领域。新的教师加强了该计划的基础科学方向。该学院与这个框架合作，为学术界未来的工作培养医生科学家。所有项目的一个共同主题是以人类疾病为导向。这些目标将通过培训有前途的候选人在实验的设计，执行和评估，使他们可以加入学术医生，科学家在基础和转化血液学研究的行列来实现。相关性（参见说明）：随着国家人口的老龄化，我们在基础和转化研究中培养血液病方面的医生科学家变得更加必要。纽约大学医学院的培训计划将继续这一使命。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a renewal application for a multidisciplinary hematology training program at New York University School of Medicine which has been in existence for over 42 years. The program is designed to provide two- year research opportunities for 5-6 post-doctoral fellows under the guidance of a faculty of 13 mentors. The training faculty consists of academic hematologists and hematopathologists with active laboratories applying basic science methods to the study of hematologic disorders as well as mentors of the basic science departments of NYU School of Medicine. There is abundant interaction among the faculty members within the program as well as with other scientists at this institution. The clinical research at this institution has been recognized by the NIH in its designation as a Comprehensive Cancer Center and an AIDS Center. The program director's research spans both areas. New faculty members have strengthened the basic science orientation of the program. The faculty works with this framework to train physician-scientists for future work in the academic community. A common theme of all the projects is their orientation to human disease. These aims will be accomplished by training promising candidates in the design, execution and evaluation of experiments so that they may join the ranks of academic physician-scientists in basic as well as translational hematology research. RELEVANCE (See instructions): As the Nation's population is aging, it is becomes even more necessary that we train physician-scientists in hematologic disorders in basic and translational research. The training program at NYU School of Medicine will continue that mission.
