DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a resubmission of our renewal proposal requesting an additional five years of T35 funding to support a three-month summer training program at the National Center for Rehabilitative Auditory Research (NCRAR) for students enrolled in a Doctor of Audiology (Au.D.) clinical degree program. We request funding to cover four students annually for the duration of the grant. Gabrielle Saunders, Ph.D. will be the Program Director. She will be assisted by an Advisory Committee. The long-term objective of our program is to increase the number of individuals with a clinical Au.D. who go on to pursue a Ph.D. and a career in research audiology. The NCRAR is a VA-funded research center consisting of 15 Ph.D. investigators, 12 of whom are T-35 faculty. NCRAR research focuses on diagnosis, rehabilitation and prevention of auditory disorders through human studies, through translational and applied studies, many of which use clinical methodologies to obtain data. It thus has particular appeal and application to the clinical Au.D. students, for whom the program is designed. During the summer, each student works with their mentor to design and conduct a research project, while also working in their mentor's laboratory, attending courses held by NCRAR faculty and guests, participating in NCRAR journal groups, meetings and seminars, holding discussions with each NCRAR Investigator, attending a summer audiology conference and visiting other local research facilities. Finally, students are required to present their mentored research project to members of the NCRAR, and at the American Auditory Society annual meeting. They are also encouraged to work with their mentor to publish the findings of this project. All students enrolled in an accredited Au.D. program are eligible to participate. The program is publicized via mailings to Au.D. Department Chairs, on the NCRAR website, and at audiology conferences throughout the year. To apply, students must send a statement of interest describing what they hope to gain from the traineeship, curriculum vitae, at least two letters of recommendation and an applicant evaluation form completed by their Au.D. program advisor. Applications are evaluated by the NCRAR faculty using undergraduate GPA, letters of recommendation, the content of their personal statement and the applicant evaluation form as metrics. To date, 20 students have participated in the NCRAR T35 training program. Twelve of the past trainees have now graduated from their Au.D. programs. Four of our past students are now enrolled in Ph.D. programs, two are research audiologists, and the others have chosen a clinical pathway. These data, combined with highly positive evaluations from participating students, Au.D. program faculty (see letters of support), and the NCRAR faculty demonstrates that our program successfully accomplishes the goals of the NIH T35 training program, which is to increase the number of Au.D. graduates pursuing a career in auditory research.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是我们续签提案的重新提议，要求另外五年的T35资金支持在国家康复疗法听觉研究中心（NCRAR）为期三个月的夏季培训计划（NCRAR），供招募听力学博士学位（AU.D.）临床学位课程的学生。我们要求资金在赠款期间每年覆盖四名学生。 Gabrielle Saunders博士将是计划主任。她将得到咨询委员会的协助。我们计划的长期目标是增加具有临床AU.D的个体的数量。继续攻读博士学位的人以及研究听力学的职业。 NCRAR是由VA资助的研究中心，由15博士学位组成。调查人员，其中12名是T-35教师。 NCRAR研究的重点是通过人类研究，翻译和应用研究来诊断，康复和预防听觉障碍，其中许多研究使用临床方法来获取数据。因此，它具有对临床AU.D的特殊吸引力和应用。该计划设计的学生。在夏季，每个学生都与他们的导师一起设计和开展研究项目，同时还在他们的导师实验室工作，参加NCRAR教师和嘉宾举办的课程，参加NCRAR期刊小组，会议和研讨会，与每个NCRAR调查员进行讨论，并参加了夏季听觉学会议，并访问了其他当地研究机构。最后，要求学生向NCRAR的成员和美国听觉协会年度会议介绍他们的指导研究项目。还鼓励他们与他们的导师一起发布该项目的发现。所有学生都参加了认可的AU.D.计划有资格参加。这 程序通过邮寄给AU.D.部门主席，NCRAR网站上以及全年的听力学会议。要申请，学生必须发送一份利益声明，描述他们希望从学员，课程，至少两张推荐信以及其AU.D填写的申请人评估表中获得的收益。计划顾问。 NCRAR教师使用本科GPA，推荐信，其个人陈述的内容以及申请人评估表作为指标对申请进行评估。 迄今为止，有20名学生参加了NCRAR T35培训计划。过去的十二名学员现在已经从AU.D毕业。程序。我们过去的四个学生现在已入学博士学位。计划，两个是研究听力学家，其他计划选择了临床途径。这些数据，加上参与学生的高度积极评估，AU.D。计划教师（请参阅支持信），NCRAR教师表明，我们的计划成功地完成了NIH T35培训计划的目标，这将增加AU.D的数量。从事听觉研究职业的毕业生。
