PROJECT SUMMARY The proposed research program seeks to establish a formal training paradigm to support USC neurosurgery residents in pursuit of successful academic careers as clinician-scientists. Physician-scientists are uniquely positioned to address many challenges at the forefront of medicine today. However, due to constraints on time, opportunity, and support, the number of neurosurgeons engaged in meaningful research has declined substantially. The USC R25 Neurosurgery Research Education Program provides the resources, mentorship, and support required to address this gap. The Neurosurgery Department has a strong track record of training productive academic neurosurgeons with active research programs. Recently, USC has recruited multiple transformative, senior faculty members within the neuroscience disciplines. Each of these Institute/ Center Directors has developed strong collaborations with the USC Neurosurgery department and is a mentor/ advisor on this training grant. The USC Neurosurgery Research Education Program incorporates thirty-five faculty members from seventeen different academic departments across the university. Mentors are clinicians and scientists with federal/ foundational funding and prior records notable for successful mentorship. A multi-tiered mentorship system affords each trainee a research supervisor for his/her direct investigative study, direction from a Neurosurgery Research Mentorship Committee and career development guidance from team of clinician-scientists within the candidate's chosen neurosurgery/ neuroscience subspecialty. An educational program is tailored towards developing successful clinician-scientists. This includes a short introductory seminar series and monthly, semi-structured, mentorship sessions with senior clinician-scientists involved with the R25 program. A Transition to Academic Faculty Committee provides sustained guidance and oversight to R25 graduates during their final years of residency training and initial junior faculty appointment. An External Advisory Committee of senior investigators (institutional and national) with strong training program experience assists in guiding the program. The over-arching aim of the proposal is to develop neurosurgeon-scientists capable of securing NIH K-, and ultimately R-, series funding to support independent research.

项目摘要 拟议的研究计划旨在建立正式的培训范式来支持USC神经外科 居民追求成功的学术职业，成为临床医生。医师科学家是独特的 定位于当今医学最前沿的许多挑战。但是，由于时间的限制， 机会和支持，从事有意义研究的神经外科医生的数量有所下降 基本上。 USC R25神经外科研究教育计划提供资源，指导， 解决此差距所需的支持。神经外科部门的训练记录很强 具有活跃研究计划的生产性学术神经外科医生。最近，南加州大学招募了多个 神经科学学科中的变革性高级教师。这些研究所/中心 董事已与USC神经外科部建立了强大的合作，并且是导师/顾问 在这项培训补助金上。 USC神经外科研究教育计划包括35位教职员工 来自大学的十七个不同学术部门的成员。导师是临床医生， 具有联邦/基础资金和先前记录的科学家成功指导。多层 指导系统为每个学员提供了他/她直接调查研究的研究主管 来自神经外科研究指导委员会和职业发展指导 候选人选择的神经外科/神经科学专业中的临床医生科学家。一个教育 计划是针对发展成功的临床医生的量身定制的。这包括简短的介绍性 研讨会系列和每月，半结构化的指导性会议与高级临床医生参与 R25程序。向学术教师委员会的过渡提供了持续的指导和监督 R25毕业生在居住培训的最后几年和初级教师任命期间。外部 具有强大培训计划经验的高级调查员咨询委员会（机构和国家） 协助指导该计划。该提案的整理目的是开发神经外科医生 能够确保NIH K-并最终获得R-系列资金，以支持独立研究。
