This is a renewal application for years 33-37 of GM07171 which supports the Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) at Duke University. One of the first MSTP's, this Program has been continually funded by the National Institutes of General Medical Sciences, the first ten years as GM01678 (1966-1975) and the subsequent 29 years as GM07171 (1975-2004). The Program currently has an award of 36 funded positions and is requesting the same number of slots in this renewal. However, the Program has grown significantly since the previous application in 1996 when there were 42 students. Currently, there are 73 students and the Program is now at a new steady state of 70-84 students. This number represents 10 to12% of the Medical School class. The additional funding is provided by the Medical and Graduate Schools, the Duke Medical Alumni Association, and the Duke Endowment. In addition, a $1,000,000 reserve fund has been created to cover unexpected financial needs by the Program. The current Program student body is quite diverse with 19% underrepresented minority enrollment and a gender distribution that is 45% female. A large pool of applicants (200-300 per year) has allowed us to recruit an outstanding group of students. The structure of the Program is unchanged since the prior application. It consists of a basic science core year, a clinical core year, graduate school, and return to a final clinical year. The average program length is 7.4 years. Students may spend their graduate years in the traditional Medical School basic sciences, Chemistry, Zoology, and Biomedical Engineering. Greater flexibility is now available to our students who may also opt a new Biostatistics and Bioinformatics Department, Economics, or Cognitive Neuroscience/Psychology.

这是GM07171 33 - 37年的续签申请，该公司支持杜克大学的医学科学家培训计划（MSTP）。该计划是第一个MSTP之一，是由美国国立一般医学科学研究院（National Institutes of General Medical Sciences）不断资助的，最初是GM01678（1966-1975），随后的29年为GM07171（1975-2004）。该计划目前授予36个资助职位，并要求在此续签中使用相同数量的老虎机。但是，自1996年有42名学生的上一个申请以来，该计划已大大发展。目前，有73名学生，该计划现在处于70-84名学生的新稳定状态。这个数字代表了医学院班的10％至12％。额外的资金由医学院和研究生院，杜克医学校友会和公爵捐赠提供。此外，已经创建了1,000,000美元的预备基金，以满足该计划的意外财务需求。当前的计划学生团体非常多样化，少数族裔的少数群体分配不足，女性为45％。大量申请人（每年200-300）使我们能够招募一群出色的学生。由于先前的应用程序，该程序的结构没有变化。它由基础科学核心年份，临床核心年份，研究生院，返回最后的临床年份。平均程序长度为7。4年。学生可以在传统的医学院基础科学，化学，动物学和生物医学工程中度过毕业生。现在，我们的学生可以使用更大的灵活性，他们还可以选择新的生物统计学和生物信息学系，经济学或认知神经科学/心理学。
