项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-range goal of activities at Meharry supported by NIMHD Endowment Program for Increasing Research and Resources Capacity is to develop a research capacity and infrastructure supportive of basic, translational, clinical and community-based research focused on eliminating health disparities. One of the acknowledged gaps in the nation's ability make significant inroads toward eliminated minority health disparities is the absence of a critical mass of clinician (physician and dental) scientists. Current trends in NIH funding suggest that scientists most likely to be recruited and retained in clinical research and subsequently obtain NIH funding are dual degree (M.D. /Ph.D. or D.D.S. /Ph.D.) recipients. Therefore the objective of the current application to endow highly integrated initiatives that will positively impact the above national priorities by 1) diversifying the future manpower in science; 2) increasing the number of physician- or dental-scientists; and 3) improving the written and oral communications skills of trainees (pre- and post-doctoral), particularly M.D./Ph.D. and D.D.S/Ph.D. students, and faculty investigators. It is widely known that communications skills in reading, writing and speaking clearly are crucial to scientific We plan to accomplish the goals of this application by pursuing the following two specific aims: 1. To expand and strengthen M.D./Ph.D. training and initiate a D.D.S./Ph.D. program at MMC; and 2. To develop an Office for Enhancing Scientific Communicating. This project will be a college-wide collaboration among the MMC School of Dentistry, the School of Graduate Studies and Research, the School of Medicine and the Office for Research. MMC is uniquely poised to execute this project given its long and successful history in training minority dentists, physicians and biomedical scientist MMC is a designated health professional School under the category of Certain Historically Black Colleges and Universities (HBCUs).

描述（由申请人提供）：由NIMHD恩育计划支持的梅哈里活动的远程目标，用于提高研究和资源能力，是为了建立研究能力和基础设施，支持基本，转化，临床和社区的研究，重点是消除健康差异。该国能力的公认差距之一是消除少数族裔健康差异的重大侵害是缺少临床医生（医师和牙科）科学家的临界质量。当前的趋势 NIH资金表明，最有可能在临床研究中招募和保留的科学家，随后获得NIH资金是双学位（M.D. /Ph.d。或D.D.D.S. /Ph.d。）。因此，当前申请赋予高度综合举措的目的将通过1）多样化科学的未来人力来积极影响上述国家优先事项； 2）增加医师或牙科科学家的数量； 3）改善书面和口头受训者的沟通技巧（博士后和博士后），特别是M.D./ph.d。和D.D.S/Ph.D。学生和教职调查员。众所周知，阅读，写作和说话方面的沟通技巧对我们计划实现目标的科学至关重要通过追求以下两个具体目标：1。扩展和加强M.D./ph.d。培训并启动D.D.S./ph.d。在MMC的计划；和2。开发一个办公室来增强科学沟通。该项目将是MMC牙科学院，研究生研究与研究学院，医学院和研究办公室之间的合作。鉴于其在培训少数族裔牙医，医生和生物医学科学家MMC的悠久历史上，MMC已独一无二地执行该项目，这是一所指定的卫生专业学校，这些学校是某些历史上黑人大学（HBCUS）的类别。
