项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY The proposed studies for this diversity supplement will provide career development and in-depth training in translational immunology for a talented candidate with a Master’s degree in Cellular and Molecular Pathobiology. The parent grant for this application investigates the mechanisms by which pediatric overweight and obesity increase the risk of Multisystem Inflammatory Syndrome in Children (MIS-C), a severe pediatric complication of SARS-CoV-2 infection. In leading the proposed studies, the candidate will develop expertise in concepts of inflammatory signaling and in widely applicable methods used to measure human immune cell activation. From this work, we anticipate that the candidate will publish at least one first-author paper and a present at the national Clinical Immunology Society meeting in 2023. Mentorship from two successful physician-scientist investigators, combined with collaborative interactions with the parent grant study team, will provide highly relevant career development opportunities towards the candidate’s goal of obtaining an MD/PhD at the interface of immunity and infectious pathogens.

项目概要这种多样性补充的拟议研究将提供职业发展和深入培训转化免疫学为一位拥有细胞和分子病理学硕士学位的才华横溢的候选人提供。本申请的家长资助调查了儿童超重和肥胖的机制增加儿童多系统炎症综合征（MIS-C）的风险，这是一种严重的儿科并发症在领导拟议的研究时，候选人将发展以下概念方面的专业知识。炎症信号传导以及广泛适用的用于测量人体免疫细胞激活的方法。这项工作，我们预计候选人将发表至少一篇第一作者论文并在国家级会议上发表演讲 2023 年临床免疫学学会会议。两位成功的医师科学家研究人员的指导，结合与家长资助研究团队的协作互动，将提供高度相关的职业实现候选人获得免疫领域医学博士/博士学位的目标的发展机会和传染性病原体。
