ABSTRACT: An over-arching goal of the Department of Dermatology at The University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center is to produce scientific leaders in skin biology and skin disease. To sustain this goal, we seek to renew our T32 Dermatology Research Training Program, which primarily recruits MD/PhD or MD candidates from dermatology residency applicants as early as the residency match. The program’s success can be measured by our graduates’ achievements in acquiring federal grants as principal investigators (over 60% of graduates to date) and leadership positions in academia and industry. These accomplishments validate current policies: (1) selecting candidates with proven scientific achievements and strong potential for independent investigation; (2) continuing a physician-scientist track that trains 2 yrs. in clinical dermatology and then 2 yrs. in research (historically fundamental and/or translational, but with recent expansion into clinical); and (3) preceptorship under outstanding faculty from our Graduate School of Biosciences. The program will continue to be administered: by the same director and 2 co- directors (a senior one and a junior one who is a program alumnus) plus a new (internationally renowned) PhD scientist, by a coordinator, and by 3 advisors who hold Dean-ship positions at Southwestern. We gathered 38 potential preceptors (including a Nobel laureate and 9 members of the National Academy of Science), all of whom have received NIH R01 grants and are effective mentors and meaningful interactors with dermatology personnel. In the aggregate, our preceptors’ publications rate a high mean H-index of 64. For the next funding cycle, we have already recruited 6 outstanding post-doc trainees. The program was given exceptional reviews by Dennis Roop PhD in 2018 and by Alice Pentland MD in 2019, with Dr. Pentland judging the program in the context of comments from the Study Section.

抽象的： 德克萨斯大学西南分校皮肤科的总体目标 医学中心旨在培养皮肤生物学和皮肤病方面的科学领导者，为了维持这一目标，我们。 寻求更新我们的 T32 皮肤病学研究培训计划，该计划主要招募医学博士/博士或 皮肤科住院医师实习申请者中的医学博士候选人最早与该项目的住院医师匹配。 成功可以通过我们的毕业生作为校长获得联邦拨款的成就来衡量 研究者（迄今为止超过 60% 的毕业生）以及学术界和工业界的领导职位。 成就验证了现行政策：（1）选择具有经过验证的科学成就的候选人 以及独立调查的强大潜力；(2) 继续培养 2 名医生-科学家 临床皮肤病学 2 年，然后从事研究（历史上是基础性的和/或转化性的，但是） (3) 在我们研究生的杰出教师的指导下 该计划将继续由同一位院长和 2 名共同管理。 董事（一名高级董事和一名初级董事，均为项目校友）加上一名新董事（国际 （著名）博士科学家，由一名协调员和 3 名担任院长职务的顾问组成 我们聚集了 38 位潜在的导师（包括一位诺贝尔奖获得者和 9 位成员）。 美国国家科学院院士），他们都获得过 NIH R01 资助，是卓有成效的导师 以及与皮肤科人员有意义的互动。总的来说，我们的导师的出版物。 平均 H 指数为 64。对于下一个融资周期，我们已经招募了 6 名优秀的人 该项目在 2018 年获得了丹尼斯·鲁普 (Dennis Roop) 博士和 2019 年，爱丽丝·彭特兰 (Alice Pentland) 医学博士，彭特兰 (Pentland) 博士根据来自 研究科。
