项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY / ABSTRACT The overall objective of the T32 “Translational Vision Research Training at UCSD” program is to train postdoctoral fellows to be become outstanding translational vision research scientists. The program builds on the exceptional training record of faculty from the University of California San Diego School of Medicine (ranked among the top 10 institutions for NIH Training grants) in general, and the Shiley Eye Institute in particular who have mentored scientists to translate basic science results into improved clinical care. Moreover, UCSD is highly collaborative with strong programmatic support for the translation of vision research from bench to bedside in areas such as genetics/proteomics, clinical research, bioengineering, ophthalmic imaging and image analysis, drug delivery, and data science, biomedical informatics and artificial intelligence. The short-term objectives of the T32 Training Grant program are to provide 2 postdoctoral fellows each year with training and instruction by mentors who direct NIH-funded laboratories. The program will provide a coordinated framework for the recruitment and training of postdoctoral fellows in three trainings tracks that focus on the Shiley Eye Institute and UCSD faculty's core strengths, (1) clinical/human subjects research and (2) genomics/proteomics and 3) data science/informatics/artificial intelligence. Each Training Track has an integrated mentor group, with an outstanding track record in training full-time postdoctoral scientists, and National Eye Institute support for their research. Twenty-two faculty mentors representing 11 UCSD departments, the Institute of Genomic Medicine and the new Halıcıoğlu Data Science Institute will participate in the program. The program benefits from resources provided by the Clinical Translational Research Institute, Vision Research Center core grant, the UCSD Supercomputer Center. The multi-disciplinary vision research training experience includes didactic instruction appropriate to the area being studied, research experience with a lead mentor as well as professional development seminars, lectures and journal clubs in various disciplines. Instruction in research ethics and leadership, laboratory management, and grant writing will be required. To oversee the training program, solicit and review applications, and monitor/facilitate progress through each postdoctoral fellow's Individual Development Plan (IDP), the administrative structure of the training program includes a Program Director, Linda Zangwill, PhD, co-Director, Radha Ayyagari, PhD and an Executive Committee. In addition, an External Advisory Committee provides independent evaluation of the training program. Every postdoctoral fellow in the T32 Translational Vision Research Training Program at UCSD will be expected to exit well prepared for a vision research career in academia or industry.

项目概要/摘要 T32“UCSD 转化视觉研究培训”计划的总体目标是培训该计划建立在博士后成为杰出的转化视觉研究科学家的基础上。加州大学圣地亚哥分校医学院教师的卓越培训记录（在 NIH 培训补助金方面名列前 10 名的机构），而 Shiley 眼科研究所特别是那些指导科学家将基础科学成果转化为改善的临床护理的人。此外，加州大学圣地亚哥分校高度合作，为视觉研究的转化提供了强有力的计划支持在遗传学/蛋白质组学、临床研究、生物工程、眼科等领域从实验室到临床成像和图像分析、药物输送、数据科学、生物医学信息学和人工智能。 T32培训资助计划的短期目标是每人提供2名博士后研究员由指导 NIH 资助实验室的导师提供为期一年的培训和指导。博士后研究员招聘和培训的协调框架分为三个培训轨道：专注于希利眼科研究所和加州大学圣地亚哥分校教师的核心优势，（1）临床/人类学科研究和 (2) 基因组学/蛋白质组学和 3) 数据科学/信息学/人工智能每个培训课程都有一个。综合导师团队，在培养全职博士后科学家方面拥有出色的业绩记录，以及代表 11 所 UCSD 的 22 名教师导师支持他们的研究。部门、基因组医学研究所和新的 Halıcıoğlu 数据科学研究所将参与该计划受益于临床转化研究所提供的资源，视觉研究中心核心资助，加州大学圣地亚哥分校超级计算机中心多学科视觉研究。培训经验包括适合所研究领域的教学指导、研究经验拥有首席导师以及各种专业发展研讨会、讲座和期刊俱乐部研究伦理和领导力、实验室管理和资助写作方面的指导将是监督培训计划，征求和审查申请，并监控/促进进展。通过每个博士后研究员的个人发展计划（IDP），培训项目包括一名项目主任 Linda Zangwill 博士、联合主任 Radha Ayyagari 博士和一名此外，外部咨询委员会还提供独立评估。 T32 转化视觉研究培训计划的每位博士后研究员加州大学圣地亚哥分校预计将为学术界或工业界的视觉研究职业做好充分准备。
