Project Summary The field of pharmacology has a direct impact on the health and care of the U.S. population. Located at The Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, the Department of Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences (DPMS) is well-positioned to provide superb career training in the broad field of Pharmacology. The training mission of the Pharmacology and Molecular Sciences (PMS) Training Program is centered on providing trainees with state- of-the-art research knowledge and professional skills focused on drug design, mechanism of action and the process of development and translation. Our broad objective is to prepare a diverse pool of budding scientist- scholars for a variety of pharmacology-related careers. The Program curriculum and activities are specifically designed to provide training that covers each component of the drug discovery and development pipeline and to nurture a positive training experience. We accomplish this objective through numerous activities designed to develop trainee core competencies and preparation for careers in pharmacology. In addition to mentored laboratory research, our program has four training components: 1) specialized and broad coursework in the areas of basic and clinical pharmacology, physiology, bioorganic chemistry, drug discovery and biomedical sciences, 2) collaborative ties to the Lieber Institute for Brain Development (LIBD), which exposes students to a translational biotech research environment, and the Division of Clinical Pharmacology, which offers training in the areas of clinical and translational pharmacology, 3) multi-faceted pharmacology-focused career building and networking activities through our extensive alumni and pharmaceutical career connections and institutional resources, and 4) multi-faceted pharmacology-related training in the responsible conduct of research and methods to enhance reproducibility that are ongoing throughout training. With the above plan we arm our trainees with the requisite knowledge base, technical and professional skills needed to be successful in the broad field of pharmacology. Our success in achieving these objectives will be measured through validated assessment instruments covering the courses, training activities, Doctorate Board Oral/Written Exams, and through external reviews. Importantly, we strive to provide a pathway for our trainees to attain skills that allow them to achieve work-life balance and to positively impact society in their chosen career paths. The Program intends to recruit and retain nine new trainees each year who will be supported by this training grant for their first year of training. In their subsequent years of mentored research, they will be supported by our well-funded and diverse training faculty. The Program is structured to support appropriate time-to-degree for all trainees (~5 years). We provide a unique pharmacology-focused career and professional development curriculum and environment that arms trainees with the skills to adapt to an ever-changing biomedical research landscape and directly facilitates entry into a broad spectrum of pharmacology-related career paths.

项目摘要 药理学领域对美国人口的健康和护理有直接影响。位于 约翰·霍普金斯大学医学院，药理学与分子科学系（DPMS） 位置很好，可以在药理学领域提供出色的职业培训。训练任务的 药理学和分子科学（PMS）培训计划以向受训者提供州为中心 艺术研究知识和专业技能的重点是药物设计，行动机理和 发展和翻译过程。我们的广泛目标是准备各种各样的新兴科学家 - 各种与药理学有关的职业的学者。计划课程和活动专门 旨在提供涵盖药物发现和开发管道的每个组成部分的培训以及 培养积极的培训经验。我们通过许多旨在的活动来实现这一目标 发展学员的核心能力和药理学职业的准备。除了指导 实验室研究，我们的计划有四个培训组成部分：1）专业和广泛的课程 基础和临床药理学，生理学，生物有机化学，药物发现和生物医学领域 科学，2）与利伯大脑发展研究所（LIBD）的合作关系，该研究所使学生暴露于 转化生物技术研究环境和临床药理学的部门，提供培训 临床和转化药理学领域，3）以药理学为重点的职业大楼和 通过我们广泛的校友和制药职业联系和机构的网络活动 资源和4）在负责任的研究和 提高整个培训过程中正在进行的可重复性的方法。使用上述计划，我们武装学员 凭借必要的知识库，需要在广阔领域取得成功的技术和专业技能 药理。我们在实现这些目标方面的成功将通过经过验证的评估来衡量 涵盖课程，培训活动，博士董事会口试/笔试的仪器以及外部 评论。重要的是，我们努力为学员提供一条途径，以获得使他们能够实现的技能 工作与生活的平衡并积极影响社会在他们选择的职业道路上。该计划打算招募 并保留每年的9名新学员，他们将获得这笔培训赠款的第一年培训。 在随后的指导研究中，我们将得到我们资金丰富且多样化的培训的支持 学院。该计划的结构旨在为所有学员（约5年）提供适当的时间时间。我们提供 以药理学为重点的独特职业和专业发展课程和环境 具有适应不断变化的生物医学研究环境并直接促进进入的学员 进入与药理学有关的职业道路的广泛。
