DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The major thrust of this Gastroenterology Research Training Program is to prepare the M.D., Ph.D, M.D./Ph.D., post-doctoral fellow, and pre-doctoral student for a career as a physician/scientist and/or independent investigator in academic Gastroenterology. There are eight multi-faceted faculty to provide prospective trainees opportunities in contemporary approaches to cellular/molecular biology, oncogenesis, signal transduction pathways, virology, immunology, stem cell biology, and biochemistry. Faculty have been recruited from the Department(s) of Medicine, and Pediatrics, and from the Brown University Pathobiology and the Molecular and Cellular Biology (MCB) Program and all operate well-funded research programs (approximately $4.8 million annual direct costs). In this context, there is a major effort to provide opportunities in translational research at the Liver Research Center and Rhode Island Hospital. In these facilities, there is access to quantitative imaging, laser capture micro-dissection, genomics and proteomics, flow cytometry, transgenic animals, and human tissue banks. The pre-doctoral trainees are recruited from the Pathobiology and MCB Graduate Program(s), and enter with majors in biology, chemistry, and cell biology. These students have a commitment to basic research on the mechanisms of human disease. The Post-doctoral trainees are recruited from several sources including the graduate programs at Brown and elsewhere as well as those having completed the minimum of two years in the Brown University/Affiliated Hospital Clinical Adult and Pediatric Gastroenterology Fellowship Program. We request two postdoctoral M.D., M.D., Ph.D. or Ph.D. trainees who will devote two or three years to basic or translational research. The research effort will be 90% for M.D. or M.D./Ph.D, and 100% for Ph.D post-doctoral Fellows. There is a request for two pre-doctoral trainees enrolled in the M.D., M.D./Ph.D. or Ph.D. graduate programs at Brown University. The trainees are instructed in the responsible conduct of research and have the opportunity to develop communication and teaching skills during the training program. Both pre- and post-doctoral trainees are required to participate in didactic courses that are enriched by weekly research seminars, journal clubs, career development workshops, and symposia. There is a strong mentoring program to develop skills in communication, grantsmanship, interdisciplinary interactions, and the implementation of basic research approaches for the diagnosis and prevention of gastrointestinal diseases. The training program is committed to offering opportunities to minority pre- and postdoctoral trainees, and there is a robust program to recruit underrepresented minority candidates. Thus the Brown University/Lifespan Affiliated Hospital Program is designed to develop academic careers in Gastroenterology and Hepatology. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This grant is a Training Program for diseases of the gastrointestinal tract and liver. Trainees are comprised of pre-doctoral and post-doctoral candidates with the MD, PhD, or both degrees. A major emphasis of the program is to train biomedical scientist and physician scientist using state of the art investigative techniques.

描述（由申请人提供）： 该胃肠病学研究培训计划的主要推力是准备医学博士学位，医学博士学位，医学博士学位，博士后研究员，以及在学术胃肠病学领域的医师/科学家和/或独立研究者的职业生涯。有八个多方面的教师，为当代的细胞/分子生物学，肿瘤发生，信号转导途径，病毒学，免疫学，干细胞生物学和生物化学提供了当代学员的机会。教师是从医学系，儿科系，布朗大学病理学以及分子和细胞生物学（MCB）计划（MCB）计划（MCB）招募的，并且所有运营良好的研究计划（约480万美元的年度直接成本）。在这种情况下，在肝脏研究中心和罗德岛医院的转化研究中提供了一项重大努力。在这些设施中，可以访问定量成像，激光捕获微滴定，基因组学和蛋白质组学，流式细胞术，转基因动物和人体组织库。博士前学员是从病理生物学和MCB研究生计划中招募的，并在生物学，化学和细胞生物学专业的研究中进入。这些学生致力于对人类疾病机制的基础研究。博士后学员是从多个来源招募的，包括布朗和其他地方的研究生课程，以及在布朗大学/附属医院临床成人和儿科胃肠病学奖学金计划中完成至少两年的人。我们要求两家博士后医学博士，博士学位或博士学位将为基础或翻译研究专用两三年的学员。对于M.D.或M.D./PH.D的研究工作将为90％，博士学位后博士研究员将为100％。请求在医学博士，医学博士/ph.d.D.或博士学位布朗大学的研究生课程。学员接受了负责任的研究行为，并有机会在培训计划期间发展沟通和教学技能。学期和博士后学员都必须参加每周研究研讨会，期刊俱乐部，职业发展研讨会和专题讨论会丰富的教学课程。有一个强大的指导计划来发展沟通，授予技巧，跨学科互动以及实施基础研究方法，以诊断和预防胃肠道疾病。该培训计划致力于为少数族裔和博士后学员提供机会，并且有一个强大的计划来招募代表性不足的少数民族候选人。因此，布朗大学/寿命附属医院计划旨在发展胃肠病学和肝病学的学术职业。 公共卫生相关性：该赠款是胃肠道和肝脏疾病的培训计划。学员由具有MD，PhD或两个学位的博士前和博士后候选人组成。该计划的主要重点是使用艺术调查技术培训生物医学科学家和医师科学家。
