DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application proposes continued funding for an interdisciplinary research training program in kidney diseases, hypertension, and cell biology. The purpose of this program is to provide training for young clinicians and scientists interested in pursuing research careers involved in diseases of the kidney, regulation of the blood pressure, and basic aspects of cell biology. Trainees will be attracted from programs in urology, pediatric nephrology, nephrology, and the basic sciences. The major theme of the program is to provide the means whereby highly motivated young physicians and scientists can spend an intensive and sustained period of research training under the guidance of an established and productive faculty mentor. A newly instituted part of the program includes a mentoring committee for all candidates. Specific training opportunities include the areas of basic and applied cell biology, abnormalities of the cardiovascular and renal systems in hypertension, developmental biology of the kidney, the biology of urogenital cancer, immunological disorders of the kidney, and clinical investigation in disease of the kidney and urinary tract. Additional opportunities will be available in related areas of physiology, biochemistry, pharmacology, and immunology. In addition, applicants will have the opportunity to work with investigators using epidemiologic and statistical methods. Over 30 faculty have indicated a willingness to participate in the training of such postdoctoral candidates. A broad range of highly specialized expertise permits such training in almost any area related to kidney diseases. The recent increase in the number and quality of applicants to our programs indicates that we are in a strong position to utilize these trainee positions. One of the major characteristics of research and training at the University of Iowa is the interdisciplinary nature of many of the research programs. Faculty members of this Training Program are unanimously eager to contribute to the education of potential young scientists and physicians. At Iowa, research training is an important component of our overall mission. A strong faculty, strong institutional resources, and a strong applicant pool are the hallmarks of this application.

描述（由申请人提供）： 该申请建议继续为肾脏疾病，高血压和细胞生物学的跨学科研究培训计划提供资金。该计划的目的是为有兴趣从事肾脏疾病，血压调节和细胞生物学基本方面的研究职业的年轻临床医生和科学家提供培训。学员将受到泌尿外科，小儿肾脏病，肾脏科和基础科学计划的吸引。该计划的主要主题是提供精力充沛的年轻医生和科学家可以在一位既定且富有成效的教师指导的指导下花费大量和持续的研究培训的手段。该计划的新成立的部分包括所有候选人的指导委员会。特定的培训机会包括基本和应用细胞生物学领域，高血压中心血管和肾脏系统的异常，肾脏的发育生物学，泌尿生殖器癌的生物学，肾脏的免疫学疾病以及肾脏疾病的临床研究和肾脏和尿果。生理学，生物化学，药理学和免疫学的相关领域将提供其他机会。此外，申请人将有机会使用流行病学和统计方法与研究人员合作。 30多名教职员工表示愿意参加此类博士后候选人的培训。广泛的高度专业知识允许在几乎任何与肾脏疾病有关的领域进行此类培训。 我们计划申请人的数量和质量的最新增加表明，我们在利用这些受训人员职位方面处于强大的位置。爱荷华大学研究和培训的主要特征之一是许多研究计划的跨学科性质。该培训计划的教职员工一致渴望为潜在的年轻科学家和医生的教育做出贡献。在爱荷华州，研究培训是我们整体任务的重要组成部分。强大的教师，强大的机构资源和强大的申请人池是该申请的标志。
