DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our Training Program in Pulmonary Disease provides comprehensive research training for individuals with a serious commitment to a career in lung biology and biomedical research, particularly as it interfaces with clinical pulmonary medicine. Our primary premise has long been that lung diseases represent major health problems in the U.S. and that progress toward improved understanding of the pathobiology of these diseases are required to make progress toward treatment and prevention. The program has a long history, training numerous physicians and scientists who have subscribed to this mission. The program is under new leadership and strives to maintain the previous scientific and training success, while adapting the next generation of researchers to new basic and clinical science knowledge and technology. Recent changes have included expanded resources (space and faculty - including 6 Ph.D. scientists). This has allowed us to broaden the scope of research questions related to lung biology, and attack the problems at the most basic and translational levels incorporating new cores in the Lung Biology Center and Harvard Medical Center. We have also enhanced our didactic program and further solidified program organization for oversight and mentoring of trainees. We identify trainees with a demonstrated interest in a research career. We also identify an environment where these individuals can pursue a problem of interest and in which creative and solid thinking combined with state-of-the-art technology is being used to pursue the problem, and provide them with the tools and mind-set to attack other problems in the future. Finally, we provide a prolonged period of support (3-5 years) so that trainees are prepared ultimately to become a productive independent investigator, and the next leaders in pulmonary academics. This has resulted in our 46 trainees publishing 332 manuscripts over the past decade, and of the 37 trainees who have completed the program, 33 have obtained grant awards. Importantly, 62% of our trainees spend over 50% if their time doing research, and only one trainee (3%) in the past decade is now in private practice. (END OF ABSTRACT)

描述（由申请人提供）： 我们在肺部疾病方面的培训计划为对肺部生物学和生物医学研究事业的认真承诺的人提供了全面的研究培训，尤其是与临床肺医学相关的人。长期以来，我们的主要前提是肺部疾病代表美国的主要健康问题，并且需要改善对这些疾病病理生物学的理解的进展是为了在治疗和预防方面取得进展。该计划的历史悠久，培训了订阅此任务的众多医生和科学家。该计划在新的领导下，努力保持以前的科学和培训成功，同时将下一代研究人员适应新的基础和临床科学知识和技术。最近的变化包括扩大资源（空间和教职员工 - 包括6名博士学位科学家）。这使我们能够扩大与肺部生物学相关的研究问题的范围，并在最基本和转化的水平上攻击肺部生物学中心和哈佛医疗中心的新核心的问题。我们还增强了我们的教学计划，并进一步巩固了对学员的监督和指导的计划组织。我们确定对研究生涯充满兴趣的学员。我们还确定了一个环境，这些人可以追求一个兴趣的问题，其中创造性和扎实的思维与最先进的技术相结合来追求问题，并为他们提供未来攻击其他问题的工具和思维方式。最后，我们提供了很长时间的支持（3 - 5年），以便最终准备成为一名富有生产力的独立研究员，并成为肺部学者的下一个领导者。这导致了我们的46名学员在过去十年中发布了332份手稿，其中37名已完成该计划的学员中有33名获得了赠款奖。重要的是，如果他们的时间进行研究，我们有62％的学员的支出超过50％，而过去十年中只有一名受训者（3％）正在私人执业中。 （抽象的结尾）
