PROJECT SUMMARY This application is for the 3rd competitive period of this Training Program, the sole training program in lung science in Columbia University. The 2nd competitive period was highly successful. We more than doubled trainee recruitment from the 1st cycle. We were successful with our emphasis in recruiting women. A major emphasis in this cycle will be to enhance Diversity in the trainee and mentor pools. A majority of our graduates placed in competitive faculty positions at major academic centers and were awarded competitive funding. We will continue our high standard of training for promising MD, or PhD (or equivalent) postdocs to prepare them for academic careers in lung science. Main features of the Program are: mentored training in research, exposure to multiple courses in basic and translational science in pulmonology, and to multiple courses in career development and scientific conduct. Research areas span a wide range of pulmonary disciplines including basic and translational science of Acute Lung Injury (ALI), Lung Development, Asthma/COPD and Lung Vascular Biology. New training directions include stem and pluripotential cell biology, precision medicine and genomics. We almost doubled our pool of world class mentors, several being innovators in their fields. Research facilities are mainly centered in the Vagelos College of Physicians and Surgeons, Columbia University. Fewer than 2% of applicants are selected from a competitive pool of applicants after review of their credentials and interviews with the members of the Program’s Executive Committee. The Program will continue to be selective, of high quality and inclusive of under-represented minorities.

项目概要 此申请适用于本训练计划的第三个竞赛期，是肺科唯一的训练计划 哥伦比亚大学的科学第二期非常成功。 从第一轮的实习生招募开始，我们就重点招募了女性。 本周期的重点是增强学员和导师队伍的多样性。 我们在主要学术中心安排了具有竞争力的职位，并获得了有竞争力的资助。 将继续为有前途的医学博士或博士（或同等）博士后提供高标准的培训，为他们做好准备 该计划的主要特点是：研究方面的指导培训。 接触过肺病学基础和转化科学的多门课程，以及肺病学的多门课程 职业发展和科学行为涵盖广泛的肺部学科。 包括急性肺损伤 (ALI)、肺发育、哮喘/慢性阻塞性肺病 (COPD) 的基础和转化科学 新的培训方向包括干细胞和多能细胞生物学、精准医学。 我们的世界级导师数量几乎增加了一倍，其中几位是各自领域的创新者。 研究设施主要集中在哥伦比亚瓦格洛斯内外科医学院 经过审查后，只有不到 2% 的申请者从竞争激烈的申请者中脱颖而出。 该计划执行委员会成员的证书和访谈将继续进行。 具有选择性、高质量并包容代表性不足的少数群体。
