DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the Immunology Training Program (ITP) is to train PhD and MD/PhD scientists for outstanding careers in immunology-related research. The program includes a wide range of Immunology-related topics, spanning from basic research in areas such as innate immunity, T cell activation, tolerance, antigen processing and presentation, MHC function, complement, antibody structure and function, and mucosal immunity to research in clinically relevant models of infectious diseases (e.g. tuberculosis, HIV), vaccine development, immunopathology, transplantation and autoimmunity. Participating departments provide a rich confluence of basic science and clinical activities and resources, enriching the training of PhD students as they engage in basic and/or translational research in the field of immunology. To accomplish these training goals, the ITP has been developed as a track within the Pathology Graduate Program. Training for the PhD degree in the ITP includes course work, research rotations, formal and informal seminars, a Thesis Proposal Defense/Qualifying Examination, and research experience resulting in scholarly publications and a PhD dissertation. Trainers and research laboratories are located in multiple departments at Case School of Medicine and its affiliated institutions. University Hospitals Case Medical Center (UHCMC), the Cleveland Clinic Foundation (CCF, including the Lerner Research Institute) and the Louis Stokes VA Medical Center (VAMC). The extensive inter-departmental and inter-institutional participation is underscored by explicit co-sponsorship of the ITP by the CWRU Department of Pathology, CCF Department of Immunology, CWRU/UHCMC Division of Infectious Diseases, CWRU Center for Global Health and CWRU/UHCMC Visual Sciences Research Center. Other ITP trainers are located in a wide number of other departments at Case, CCF, UHCMC, MHMC and VAMC. Regardless of their primary affiliation, ITP Trainers hold faculty or trainer appointments in the Case Department of Pathology. RELEVANCE: The Immunology Training Program provides PhD training to produce future investigators who will drive important biomedical research efforts in Immunology and Immunology-related areas of clinical importance, such as infectious diseases, vaccine development, and organ transplantation autoimmunity.

描述（由申请人提供）：免疫学培训计划（ITP）的目标是培训博士学位和医学博士/博士学位科学家在与免疫学有关的研究领域的出色职业。该计划包括各种与免疫学有关的主题，涵盖了先天免疫，T细胞激活，耐受性，抗原加工和呈现，MHC功能，补体，抗体结构和功能以及粘膜免疫的临床相关疾病模型（例如，免疫，HIV，HIV）的临床相关模型中的研究（例如自身免疫性。参与的部门提供了丰富的基础科学和临床活动和资源的融合，在免疫学领域从事基础和/或翻译研究时，丰富了博士生的培训。为了实现这些培训目标，ITP是在病理研究生计划中作为轨道开发的。 ITP博士学位的培训包括课程工作，研究轮换，正式和非正式研讨会，论文提案的辩护/合格考试以及导致学术出版物和博士学位论文的研究经验。培训师和研究实验室位于案例医学院及其附属机构的多个部门中。大学医院病例医疗中心（UHCMC），克利夫兰诊所基金会（CCF，包括Lerner Research Institute）和Louis Stokes VA医疗中心（VAMC）。 CWRU病理学系明确地赞助ITP，CCF免疫学系，CWRU/UHCMC传染病部，CWRU全球健康中心和CWRU/CWRU/UHCMC Visual Sciences研究中心强调了广泛的内部间和机构间参与。 Other ITP trainers are located in a wide number of other departments at Case, CCF, UHCMC, MHMC and VAMC.无论其主要隶属关系如何，ITP培训师都会在病理学系任教或培训师任命。 相关性：免疫学培训计划提供博士培训，以培养未来的研究人员，这些研究人员将推动与临床重要性的免疫学和免疫学相关领域的重要生物医学研究工作，例如传染病，疫苗开发和器官移植自身免疫性。
