项目摘要

Project Summary/Abstract The applicant, Elizabeth A. Lawson, M.D., M.M.Sc., is a practicing neuroendocrinologist at Massachusetts General Hospital and Associate Professor of Medicine at Harvard Medical School. Over the last decade Dr. Lawson’s research has focused on the link between hormone signaling, brain functioning, psychology and eating behavior in humans across a spectrum of weights and eating disorders. Her successful mentoring experience, publication and funding record demonstrate her commitment and passion for patient-oriented research and provide an excellent foundation to accomplish the goals and objectives of the K24 Award. The specific aims are: 1) To enable Dr. Lawson to dedicate time to mentor junior clinical investigators based on her already NIH funded R01 grant on neurobiological underpinnings of avoidant/restrictive eating; 2) To mentor residents, fellows, and junior faculty from Psychiatry, Endocrinology, and other fields at MGH and across institutions with the goal of developing them into clinical investigators who can successfully compete for peer- reviewed grants related to the NIMH mission; and 3) To enable Dr. Lawson to further establish a patient- oriented research program that uses innovative multidisciplinary techniques to investigate the neurobiology underlying eating behaviors, and that provides an ideal environment to develop future leaders in clinical research. The training environment is outstanding in terms of didactic resources and availability of techniques to assess cross-disciplinary endpoints. Importantly, Dr. Lawson has the strong commitment from leadership of both Endocrinology and Psychiatry who have enthusiastically endorsed her research program, mentoring, and K24 proposal. The specific research aims of the application are based on a recently funded R01 investigating the link between hormones, brain function and clinical features in youth with avoidant/restrictive eating. Important new directions will include multimodal neuroimaging, including assessment of brain structure (gray matter volume and white matter connectivity) and relationship with functional brain abnormalities and clinical features.

项目摘要/摘要申请人伊丽莎白·A·劳森（Elizabeth A. Lawson，M.D.）哈佛医学院的综合医院和医学副教授。在过去的十年中劳森的研究重点是骑马信号传导，大脑功能，心理学和人类的饮食行为遍布各种体重和饮食失调。她成功的心理经验，出版和资金记录表明了她对以患者为导向的承诺和热情研究并为实现K24奖的目标和目标提供了良好的基础。具体目的是：1）使劳森博士根据她将时间投入到精神少年临床研究者 NIH已经为R01提供了关于回避/限制性饮食的神经生物学基础的资助； 2）精神来自MGH和整个居民的居民，研究员和初级教师以及其他领域机构的目标是将其发展为临床研究人员，他们可以成功竞争同伴审查了与NIMH任务有关的赠款； 3）使劳森博士能够进一步建立患者 - 面向研究的研究计划，该计划使用创新的多学科技术来研究神经生物学潜在的饮食行为，这为培养未来的临床领导者提供了理想的环境研究。培训环境在教学资源和技术的可用性方面非常出色评估跨学科终点。重要的是，劳森博士从领导领导中做出了坚定的承诺在热情地认可她的研究计划，指导和 K24提案。该应用程序的具体研究目的是基于最近资助的R01调查避免/限制性饮食的年轻人的马匹，大脑功能和临床特征之间的联系。重要的新方向将包括多模式神经影像学，包括评估大脑结构（灰色物质体积和白质连通性）以及功能性脑异常和临床的关系特征。
