DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This proposal is a revised competing renewal of training grant, DE07294 (years 11 through 15), and is in direct response to the reissue of PAR-00-116 from the National Institutes of Dental and Craniofacial Research, release date: May 5, 2005. The proposal is designed to develop a cadre of highly skilled, interactive scientists who can successfully address the expanding opportunities in dental, oral, and craniofacial research. The training program is highly interdisciplinary by design, serving a wide variety of interactive disciplines at pre-doctoral and post-doctoral training levels. Because of the variety of training levels, and the interdisciplinary and translational/clinical emphasis in the research and educational programs, the mentors and the Director are uniquely positioned to respond effectively and directly to the goals outlined in the program announcement. The goals of the training program are to: 1) produce dentist-scientists to conduct clinically relevant oral health research; 2) train a multi-disciplinary cadre of talented investigators for careers in dental and craniofacial science; and 3) develop the next generation of dental school faculty. The training emphasizes three primary research areas which include: 1) bone biology; 2) dental biomaterials (including biomechanics, bioinformatics and dental and craniofacial bioengineering); and 3) dental translational/clinical research. The growth of these training and research efforts has greatly expanded over the past five years. Highlights include: 1) the construction of 14,000 sq. ft. of additional research space was completed and occupied in April, 2004; 2) a threefold increase in outside research funding support from $1.5M in 2001 to over $5.0M in 2006; 3) an increase in filled tenure track faculty positions from 4 in 2001 to 13 in 2006; and 4) an increase in the number of trainees supported from a variety of sources increased from15 in 2001 to 52 in 2006. For each year of training there will be 10 to 12 dental summer research fellowship students supported from dental school funds; 10 engineering students for 10 weeks of training, who will be funded from "Dental Science Research Training Program for Engineers" (DK 069501); three full-time pre-doctoral students; five dentists pursuing interdisciplinary Ph.D. degrees; and two basic science faculty and/or dental faculty short-term trainees. A total of eight full-time appointments are requested for year 11, nine in year 12 and 10 in years 13 through 15 in pre- and post-doctoral training. Two short-term training positions for faculty are requested for years 11 through 15. A main component of the proposal is to train dentists in the scientific method in sufficient depth to enable them to become collaborative, interdisciplinary, reasonably independent, basic, and/or translational/clinical researchers.

说明（由申请人提供）：本提案是培训补助金 DE07294（第 11 至 15 年）的修订竞争更新，是对国家牙科和颅面研究所重新发布的 PAR-00-116 的直接回应，发布日期：2005 年 5 月 5 日。该提案旨在培养一批高技能、互动的科学家，他们能够成功应对牙科、口腔和口腔领域不断扩大的机会。颅面研究。该培训计划在设计上是高度跨学科的，为博士前和博士后培训级别的各种互动学科提供服务。由于培训水平的多样性以及研究和教育项目的跨学科和转化/临床重点，导师和主任处于独特的地位，可以有效、直接地响应项目公告中概述的目标。培训计划的目标是： 1）培养牙医科学家进行临床相关的口腔健康研究； 2) 为牙科和颅面科学的职业培训一支由才华横溢的研究人员组成的多学科骨干队伍； 3) 培养下一代牙科学校教师。培训强调三个主要研究领域，包括：1）骨生物学； 2）牙科生物材料（包括生物力学、生物信息学和牙科及颅面生物工程）； 3) 牙科转化/临床研究。在过去五年中，这些培训和研究工作的增长大大扩大。亮点包括： 1) 14,000 平方英尺的额外研究空间的建设于 2004 年 4 月竣工并入住； 2) 外部研究经费支持增加三倍，从 2001 年的 150 万美元增加到 2006 年的 500 万美元以上； 3) 终身教授职位从2001年的4个增加到2006年的13个； 4) 获得各种来源支持的学员人数有所增加，从 2001 年的 15 名增加到 2006 年的 52 名。每年的培训中，将有 10 至 12 名牙科暑期研究奖学金学生获得牙科学校资金的支持； 10名工程专业学生进行10周的培训，将由“工程师牙科科学研究培训计划”（DK 069501）资助；全日制博士前学生3名；五名牙医正在攻读跨学科博士学位。学位；以及两名基础科学教师和/或牙科教师短期实习生。在博士前和博士后培训中，第 11 年总共需要 8 个全职任命，第 12 年需要 9 个全职任命，第 13 至 15 年需要 10 个全职任命。要求为 11 至 15 年级的教师提供两个短期培训职位。该提案的一个主要组成部分是对牙医进行足够深入的科学方法培训，使他们能够成为协作的、跨学科的、相当独立的、基础的和/或转化/临床研究人员。
