项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Numerous authorities have highlighted the "endangered" pipeline of physician-scientists and in particular the challenges faced by an even rarer breed - the neurosurgeon-scientist. These challenges are myriad and increasing, and include expanding bureaucracy, greater clinical demands, diminishing research time, rapid pace of advancement in basic science, and limited funding for research training. The mission of the WUSM Department of Neurosurgery, its Residency Training Program, and the Neurosurgery Research Education Program proposed in this grant is to train and develop the future generation of neurosurgeon-scientists so that they can not only contribute to but also lead new discoveries in basic, translational, and clinical neuroscience. The structure of this R25 program incorporates several strategic enhancements to an already robust neurosurgery resident research program such that resident participants will be extremely well prepared to obtain the best junior faculty positions in the country and subsequently secure extramural funding including K series career development awards. An excellent institutional environment for neuroscience research and education in the Department of Neurosurgery and allied Clinical and Basic Science Departments supports this training program. The neurosurgery department at Washington University has a long and distinguished track record of training academic neurosurgeons spanning many decades. This success has been particularly strong over the past 10 years, with over 60% of graduates entering academic practice and nearly 20% of graduates becoming successful NIH-funded neurosurgeon-scientists. The proposed Neurosurgery Research Education Program leverages our past educational experiences and the strong neuroscience community at Washington University in order to develop an enhanced and distinct research training track specifically for neurosurgeons who are inclined to pursue academic careers as independent researchers, with the overall long-term goal of ensuring that highly-trained neurosurgeon-scientists will be available to make future advances that will lead to a reduction in the burden of neurological diseases.

描述（由申请人提供）：许多权威机构都强调了“濒临灭绝”的医师科学家队伍，特别是更罕见的群体——神经外科医生科学家所面临的挑战。这些挑战是无数且不断增加的，包括不断扩大的官僚主义、更大的挑战。临床需求、研究时间的减少、基础科学的快速发展以及研究培训的资金有限 WUSM 神经外科的使命、住院医师培训计划和该拨款中提出的神经外科研究教育计划旨在培训和培养下一代神经外科医生科学家，使他们不仅能够为基础、转化和临床神经科学做出贡献，而且能够引领新的发现。该 R25 计划的结构包含多项内容。对本已强大的神经外科住院医师研究计划进行战略性增强，使住院医师参与者将为获得该国最好的初级教员职位做好充分准备，并随后获得包括 K 系列职业发展奖在内的校外资金神经科学研究的良好机构环境。华盛顿大学神经外科系在培训学术神经外科医生方面拥有悠久而卓越的记录，在过去的十年中取得了特别巨大的成功。多年来，超过 60% 的毕业生进入学术实践，近 20% 的毕业生成为 NIH 资助的成功的神经外科医生科学家。拟议的神经外科研究教育计划利用了我们过去的教育经验和强大的实力。华盛顿大学神经科学界旨在专门为那些倾向于作为独立研究人员从事学术职业的神经外科医生开发一个增强且独特的研究培训课程，总体长期目标是确保训练有素的神经外科医生科学家能够未来取得的进展将有助于减轻神经系统疾病的负担。
