项目摘要

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This proposal requests support for Years 15-20 of the T32 Training Program in Microbial Pathogenesis, a highly successful program that incorporates researchers from 11 departments at the University of Utah. This program was initially an outgrowth of the twice-monthly Microbial Pathogenesis Seminar Series (MPSS), which brought together basic scientists and clinician scientists in Microbiology and Immunology for regular, highly engaging research presentations. Since its inception 14 years ago, the Training Program has sponsored 3 predoctoral and 3 postdoctoral trainees annually. Predoctoral trainees enter graduate school primarily through the Molecular Biology umbrella program, where they are supported for one year while taking rigorous core courses and selecting a thesis laboratory. Predoctoral trainees are selected after entering a laboratory associated with a T32 mentor, while postdoctoral trainees may be recruited from within or outside of the University to work in T32 mentor labs. The Training Program provides many opportunities for exposure of the trainees and the broader community to cutting edge research. Program-sponsored activities include the MPSS, the Microbial Pathogenesis Retreat, the Summer Journal Club, the Clinical-Microbiology Combined Conference, and advanced courses in Bacterial Pathogenesis, Molecular Virology, and Immunology. Critical to the training environment are trainee opportunities for interaction with MPSS speakers who have a variety of research and health perspectives, and the opportunity to host distinguished speakers. Each of the trainees also present their research at the Training Grant Annual Retreat, providing them with an opportunity for exposure to the greater microbial pathogenesis community on campus and to receive feedback from the external scientists. Trainees also present important new discoveries in the Summer Journal Club. Initiated in 2013, the Clinical-Microbiology Combined Conference with the Infectious Disease Fellows in Medicine highlights the clinical manifestation of infectious diseases with mechanistic understanding of microbial virulence factors. Throughout the Training Grant’s history, the trainees have established a record of high impact publications and most are pursuing careers in areas of biomedical research and teaching. The various components of the Training Program clearly serve as the nexus of Microbial Pathogenesis on this campus. This Microbial Pathogenesis community at the University of Utah has grown substantially in recent years, further enhancing the environment of the supported T32 trainees.

项目摘要/摘要该提案要求支持微生物发病机理T32培训计划15 - 20年非常成功的计划，结合了犹他大学11个系的研究人员。这程序最初是两次每个月的微生物发病机理系列（MPSS）的产物，该生长一起购买了微生物学和免疫学的基础科学家和临床科学家，以供普通，高度引人入胜的研究演讲。自14年前成立以来，该培训计划赞助了3 每年占主导地位和3名博士后学员。学会前学员通过分子生物学雨伞计划，在该计划中，他们得到了一年的支持，同时采用了严格的核心课程并选择论文实验室。进入实验室后，选择了托管前学员与T32的心理相关，而博士后学员可以从内部或外部招募在T32心理实验室工作的大学。培训计划为暴露的机会提供了许多机会受训者和更广泛的社区，用于尖端研究。计划赞助的活动包括议员，微生物发病机理撤退，夏季期刊俱乐部，临床微生物学结合会议和细菌发病机理，分子病毒学和免疫学的高级课程。对培训环境是学员与MPS扬声器互动的机会研究和健康的观点，以及主持杰出演讲者的机会。每个培训还在培训赠款年度务虚会上介绍他们的研究，为他们提供了机会暴露于校园中更大的微生物发病机理社区，并从外部科学家。学员还在夏季期刊俱乐部展示了重要的新发现。启动 2013年，临床微生物学与医学中的传染病研究员合并了会议强调了传染病的临床表现，并具有对微生物的机械理解毒力因子。通过培训赠款的历史，培训已经建立了高度的记录影响出版物和大多数在生物医学研究和教学领域从事职业。各种培训计划的组成部分清楚地充当了该校园中微生物发病机理的联系。近年来，犹他大学这个微生物发病机理界已经大大发展进一步增强了受支持的T32学员的环境。
