 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The postdoctoral Pediatric Endocrinology and Diabetes Training Program at the University of Michigan is designed to recruit and provide high quality research training in one of two major tracks, Basic Science or Clinical Investigation & Epidemiology to qualified candidates. Now on its 9th year, the theme of the Program is developmental programming of disorders of glucose metabolism. The program is organized to complement the established training program in clinical pediatric endocrinology for M.D.s, and for basic scientist pursuing a career in endocrine research, by providing 2 years of intensive postdoctoral training using closely-mentored research training program individually structured for each trainee. The program is actively supported by 11 faculty from 7 UM Departments, all with extensive research and mentoring experience within their respective areas of expertise. The Program also includes an extensive didactic component tailored to each trainee's educational background and research interests. Trainees in the Basic Sciences complete a 3-month course designed to expose them to a variety of state-of-the-art techniques, as well as to skills in performing hypothesis-driven, controlled research studies. Trainees in Clinical Investigation & Epidemiology choose between Outcomes & Epidemiology or Clinical Research. They complete courses leading to either a Master of Public Health in Biostatistics & Epidemiology or a Master of Science in Clinical Research Design & Statistical Analysis. In addition to the formal curriculum, trainees attend weekly clinical and research seminars; receive instruction preparing and delivering oral presentations; ethical conduct of research and can choose short certificate leading courses in public policy, or entrepreneurship. Mentored research is supported the Medical School resources including the Centers of Comprehensive Diabetes Research, Nutrition Obesity Research, Organogenesis, Human Growth and Development, Comprehensive Metabolomic Center, Molecular & Behavioral Neuroscience Institute and the Michigan Institute for Clinical and Health Research. To optimize each trainee's potential for development of a successful academic career, trainees are required to submit abstracts to national meetings, submit a first-authored research manuscript, and apply for individual grant funding. Expansion of our Program will help alleviate the critical shortage of successful Pediatric Endocrinologists and Pediatric Physician-Scientists.

 描述（由应用程序提供）：密歇根大学的小儿小儿内分泌学和糖尿病培训计划旨在招募并提供高质量的研究培训，以在两种主要的轨道中为合格的候选人提供基础科学或临床研究和流行病学之一。该计划的主题已于第9年，正在开发葡萄糖代谢疾病的编程。该计划的组织是为了完成M.D.S临床小儿内分泌学的既定培训计划，以及用于从事内分泌研究职业的基础科学家，通过为每个受训者提供了密切的研究培训计划，以提供2年的内分泌研究培训。该计划得到了来自7个UM部门的11位教职员工的积极支持，所有这些都在各自的专业领域内拥有丰富的研究和心理经验。计划还包括针对每个学员的教育背景和研究兴趣量身定制的广泛的教学成分。基础科学的学员完成了为期3个月的课程，旨在使他们了解各种最先进的技术，以及进行假设驱动的，受控研究的技能。临床研究和流行病学的学员在结果与流行病学或临床研究之间进行选择。他们完成了导致生物统计学和流行病学公共卫生硕士的课程，或者是临床研究设计与统计分析的科学硕士学位。除了正式的课程外，学员还参加每周的临床和研究中心；收到准备和交付口头演示的指导；研究的道德行为，可以选择公共政策或企业家精神的简短证书领导课程。指导的研究得到了医学院资源的支持，包括综合糖尿病研究中心，营养肥胖研究，器官发生，人类成长和发展，综合代谢组中心，分子和行为神经科学研究所以及密歇根州的临床和健康研究所。为了优化每个受训者的成功学术职业的潜力，要求受训者向国家会议提交摘要，提交首次撰写的研究手稿并申请个人赠款资金。我们计划的扩展将有助于减轻成功的儿科内分泌学家和儿科医师科学家的严重短缺。
