项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Cardiovascular (CV) diseases such as hypertension, stroke and coronary heart disease are the leading cause of death in our nation and worldwide. Despite this, most students in the biomedical sciences lack substantive training in the field of cardiovascular biology. The scientific discipline of CV biology remains a relatively young field with a small critical mass of scientific experts trained in the discipline. The Vasculata research training conference series, which has been sponsored annually by the North American Vascular Biology Organization (NAVBO) since 2004, serves as a critical national resource to the scientific community by providing an invaluable forum for research training of aspiring biomedical scientists in CV biology and related fields. Vasculata 2015 will be held at the University of Virginia (UVA), and as with past Vasculatas, will provide a strong foundation of basic CV biology but with the novel theme of new paradigms for conducting translational and clinical research that lead to development of new and more effective drugs and therapeutic approaches for treating or preventing major CV diseases that are personalized for individual patients based on genetic, epigenetic, genomic, proteomic, bioinformatic, and systems engineering approaches. In addition, we will provide several workshops to build and enhance the technical skill set of trainees, and to provide professional career development advice and guidance, including assistance with their individual development plans (IDPs). Our goal is to inspire and enable graduate and undergraduate students, as well as post-doctoral fellows, clinical fellows, and young and more senior investigators from a variety of disciplines to conduct novel high impact CV research. The NIH funds being requested will be used entirely to support scholarships and travel funds for undergraduate and graduate students as well as post-doctoral fellows to attend the 4-day course. Additional funds for speakers, venue rental, refreshments, and other meeting costs will be provided by the UVA Robert M. Berne Cardiovascular Research Center, the Office of the President of UVA, and by private fundraising efforts including seeking support from Pharmaceutical, Medical Supply, and Medical Device Companies. As in the past, scholarships are given to trainees whose institution or departments do not have funding to support the travel of graduate students, postdoctoral fellows or undergraduate students. Particular attention will be given to enabling under-represented minority trainees to attend.

描述（由适用提供）：高血压，中风和冠心病等心血管（CV）疾病是我们国家和全球死亡的主要原因。尽管如此，生物医学科学中的大多数学生都缺乏心血管生物学领域的实质性培训。简历生物学的科学学科仍然是一个相对年轻的领域，其中有一小部分在学科中训练的科学专家。自2004年以来，北美血管生物学组织（NAVBO）每年赞助的Vasculata研究培训会议系列，通过为科学界提供了一个重要的国家资源，它为科学界提供了一个无价的论坛，用于研究对CV生物学及相关领域的有抱负的生物医学科学家的研究培训。 Vasculata 2015 will be held at the University of Virginia (UVA), and as with past Vasculatas, will provide a strong foundation of basic CV biology But with the novel theme of new paradigms for conducting translated and clinical research that lead to development of new and more effective drugs and therapeutic approaches for treating or preventing major CV diseases that are personalized for individual patients based on genetic, epigenetic, genomic,蛋白质组学，生物信息学和系统工程方法。此外，我们还将提供几个研讨会来建立和增强学员的技术技能，并提供职业职业发展建议和指导，包括有关其个人发展计划（IDP）的帮助。我们的目标是激发和使毕业生和本科生以及博士后研究员，临床研究员以及来自各个学科的年轻和更多的高级调查员，以进行新的高影响力CV研究。所要求的NIH资金将完全用于支持本科生和研究生的科学和旅行资金，以及博士后研究员参加为期4天的课程。 UVA Robert M. Berne心血管研究中心，UVA总裁办公室以及通过私人筹款工作，包括寻求药品，医疗供应和医疗设备公司的支持，将为演讲者，场地租赁，茶点和其他会议费用提供其他资金。与过去一样，奖学金是向机构或部门没有资金来支持研究生，博士后研究员或本科生的旅行的培训。将特别注意使代表性不足的少数族裔学员能够参加。
