项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Chicago has a strong and longstanding tradition of conducting innovative interdisciplinary research in basic, clinical, and social sciences, and inspiring and training physician-scientists to perform such research has always been a key mission. The Pritzker School of Medicine sponsors a research training program for medical students during the summer between their first and second years of medical school that is an integral part of our approach to realizing this mission, serving as a formal mechanism to introduce medical students to basic, clinical, and social science research and to the possibility of pursuing a research career in academic medicine. The purpose of this application is to request support to establish a new Short- Term Aging-related Research (STAR) T-35 program to provide summer training in basic, clinical, and social science research for Pritzker medical students to inspire and to begin to prepare them to purse careers in aging research. Building on the established processes of the successful Pritzker School of Medicine Summer Research Program, the program will admit nine T-35 sponsored students each year with an additional nine supported by the Pritzker School of Medicine. A cadre of institutionally and nationally prominent principal investigators in basic, clinical, and social science relevant to aging will mentor individual trainees. In addition, trainees will take part in didactic instruction in responsible conduct of research, statistics, clinical geriatrics and an innovative course called Translational Research in Aging which will expose them to concepts in biology, clinical geriatrics, and the social sciences that are central to the study of aging. The proposed STAR program is aligned with the research objectives of the NRSA T-35 by linking medical students with cutting edge, aging-related researchers with basic, clinical, and social science foci. Through course instruction and experiential learning, STAR graduates will have a mastery of the conduct of research within the context of aging. Through our evaluation and tracking mechanism, we will be able to determine if participants show a greater propensity to continue pursuing research as a career. Given the aging of the population, it is imperative that a new cadre of investigators is prepared to conduct research aimed at understanding and improving the health of older persons. Through the STAR Program, we will address this need by preparing and inspiring the next generation of physicians to enter academic research careers in aging.

描述（由申请人提供）：芝加哥大学在基础科学、临床科学和社会科学领域开展创新性跨学科研究有着悠久而悠久的传统，激励和培训医师科学家进行此类研究一直是一项关键使命。普利兹克医学院在医学院第一年和第二年之间的暑假期间为医学生赞助了一项研究培训计划，这是我们实现这一使命的方法的一个组成部分，作为向医学生介绍基础知识的正式机制，临床和社会科学研究以及从事学术医学研究职业的可能性。本申请的目的是请求支持建立一个新的短期衰老相关研究 (STAR) T-35 计划，为普利兹克医学院的学生提供基础、临床和社会科学研究方面的夏季培训，以激发并开始帮助他们做好从事衰老研究事业的准备。基于普利兹克医学院夏季研究计划成功的既定流程，该计划每年将招收 9 名 T-35 资助的学生，另外 9 名学生将得到普利兹克医学院的支持。与老龄化相关的基础、临床和社会科学领域的机构和全国知名主要研究者组成的骨干队伍将为个别学员提供指导。此外，学员将参加负责任的研究、统计、临床老年医学的教学，以及名为“衰老转化研究”的创新课程，这将使他们了解生物学、临床老年医学和社会科学的概念，这些概念对于老年医学至关重要。衰老研究。拟议的 STAR 计划将医学生与基础、临床和社会科学领域的前沿、老龄化相关研究人员联系起来，与 NRSA T-35 的研究目标保持一致。通过课程教学和体验式学习，STAR 毕业生将掌握在老龄化背景下开展研究的能力。通过我们的评估和跟踪机制，我们将能够确定参与者是否表现出更大的倾向继续将研究作为职业。鉴于人口老龄化，必须有一支新的研究人员队伍准备开展旨在了解和改善老年人健康的研究。通过 STAR 计划，我们将通过准备和激励下一代医生进入老龄化学术研究职业来满足这一需求。
