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.

项目概要 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和分子科学系 (DPMS) 处于有利地位，可以在广泛的药理学领域提供一流的职业培训。训练任务 药理学和分子科学 (PMS) 培训计划的重点是为学员提供国家- 专注于药物设计、作用机制和药物设计的最先进的研究知识和专业技能 开发和翻译的过程。我们的总体目标是培养多元化的崭露头角的科学家—— 各种药理学相关职业的学者。该计划的课程和活动具体是 旨在提供涵盖药物发现和开发流程各个组成部分的培训，并 培养积极的培训体验。我们通过众多旨在实现这一目标的活动 培养学员的核心能力并为药理学职业做好准备。除了辅导之外 实验室研究，我们的计划有四个培训组成部分：1）专业和广泛的课程作业 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) 与利伯大脑发育研究所 (LIBD) 的合作关系，使学生能够接触到 转化生物技术研究环境和临床药理学部，提供以下方面的培训： 临床和转化药理学领域，3）以药理学为重点的多方面职业建设和 通过我们广泛的校友和制药职业关系以及机构的网络活动 资源，以及 4) 负责任地进行研究和实施的多方面药理学相关培训 在整个培训过程中不断提高可重复性的方法。通过上述计划，我们武装我们的学员 具备在广泛领域取得成功所需的必要知识基础、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、博士委员会口试/笔试以及外部考试的工具 评论。重要的是，我们努力为我们的学员提供获得技能的途径，使他们能够实现 工作与生活的平衡，并在他们选择的职业道路上积极影响社会。该计划拟招募 每年保留九名新学员，他们将在第一年的培训中获得培训补助金的支持。 在随后几年的指导研究中，他们将得到我们资金充足且多样化的培训的支持 学院。该计划旨在支持所有学员获得适当的学位时间（约 5 年）。我们提供 独特的以药理学为中心的职业和专业发展课程和环境， 学员具备适应不断变化的生物医学研究环境并直接促进进入的技能 进入广泛的药理学相关职业道路。
