项目摘要

Project Summary: This is a proposal for the continuation of the Institutional Training Program in Skeletal, Craniofacial and Oral Biology at the UConn Health, School of Dental Medicine as a T90/R90 program. It is intended to help meet the substantial need for independent scientists trained in research related to improving oral, dental and craniofacial health in the United States. The program has and will continue to train scholars (DMD and non-DMD) who are competent as clinicians and independent scientists, who are able to initiate and maintain funded research programs, who understand multidisciplinary research and who are prepared for the evolution of their research into new directions. Areas of research training include Tissue Engineering and Regenerative Medicine, Cell and Cancer Biology, Computational Biology, Genomics and Bioinformatics, Craniofacial and Skeletal Biology, Gene Regulation, Immunology, Microbiome/Microbiology, Oral Biology, Stem Cell Biology, and clinical and translational research. The major tracks of the training program are the (i) DMD/PhD (7-8 yrs of training with 3- 5 yrs of support from this training grant; 4 present trainees, 1-4 (depending on success of F30s) additional trainees requested over five yrs), (ii) PhD (4-5 yrs of training with 3 yrs of support; 3 present trainees, 6 additional trainees requested), (iii) postdoctoral research (3 yrs training and support; 3 present trainees, 5 additional trainees requested) and (iv) non-citizen PhD trainees (with DDS degrees) (3-5 yrs of training with 3 yrs of support; 1 present trainees 2 additional trainees requested). We will be training individuals with a broad range of backgrounds, from those with BS/BA degrees to those who have completed PhD and/or dental residency training. To provide a solid, common foundation for our scholars/trainees, we have developed Core Activities required of all trainees in all training tracks. We are introducing several new program features to (i) insure training milestones are achieved, (ii) facilitate preparation of F and K awards by trainees, (iii) better integrate clinical and research training for our DMD/PhDs to enhance transition into an academic career, and (iv) career development plans for teaching and laboratory management. UConn Health has a dynamic group of faculty in various areas of research with highly successful collaborations among faculty throughout the Schools of Dental Medicine and Medicine and The Jackson Laboratory for Genomic Medicine. The Biomedical Science PhD program graduate faculty, active and new institutional research centers and clinical programs provide contemporary laboratory, translational and patient oriented research opportunities that enable a diversified training environment for the program tracks, allow flexibility for the individual needs of trainees, and ensure successful progress through the tracks. The institution has vigorous trainee recruitment programs. Several are directed towards under-represented minority candidates. We will continue to provide training that is tailored to each candidate through symposia, seminars, courses, clinical research centers and collaborative research activities which are integrated both within individual tracks and amongst all the tracks of the program.

项目摘要：这是在骨骼，颅面和口腔中继续进行机构培训计划的建议牙科医学学院UConn Health的生物学作为T90/R90计划。它旨在帮助满足对与改善口腔，牙齿和颅面有关的研究培训的独立科学家的巨大需求美国的健康。该计划已经并且将继续培训学者（DMD和非DMD）作为临床医生和独立科学家的能力，能够发起和维护资助的研究计划，了解多学科研究，并为研究的发展做好准备进入新的方向。研究培训领域包括组织工程和再生医学，细胞以及癌症生物学，计算生物学，基因组学和生物信息学，颅面和骨骼生物学，基因调节，免疫学，微生物组/微生物学，口腔生物学，干细胞生物学以及临床和翻译研究。培训计划的主要轨道是（i）DMD/PHD（3-8年的培训7 - 8年这笔培训补助金的5年支持； 4名现任学员，1-4（取决于F30的成功）学员要求五年以上），（ii）博士学位（4 - 5年的培训和3年的支持； 3名现任学员，6岁要求其他学员），（iii）博士后研究（3年培训和支持； 3个现任学员，5 要求的其他学员）和（iv）非公民博士学位学员（具有DDS学位）（3 - 5年的培训3-5年一年的支持； 1名培训人员要求另外2名受训者）。我们将培训广泛的人从具有BS/BA学位的人到完成博士学位和/或牙科的背景范围居住培训。为了为我们的学者/学员提供坚实的共同基础，我们已经开发了核心所有培训轨道中所有受训者所需的活动。我们正在向（i）介绍几个新程序功能实现了确保培训里程碑，（ii）促进受训者的F和K奖项，（iii）更好整合我们的DMD/PHD的临床和研究培训，以增强过渡到学术职业，并（iv）教学和实验室管理职业发展计划。 UConn Health有一个动态的组各个研究领域的教师在整个学校的教师之间取得了非常成功的合作牙科医学和杰克逊基因组医学实验室。生物医学科学博士课程毕业生教师，活跃和新的机构研究中心和临床计划提供当代实验室，转化和以患者为导向的研究机会，使多样化培训计划轨道的环境，为受训者的个人需求提供灵活性，并确保成功通过轨道进步。该机构有剧烈的学员招聘计划。几个是致力于代表性不足的少数民族候选人。我们将继续提供针对的培训每个候选人通过研讨会，研讨会，课程，临床研究中心和协作研究在单个轨道和程序的所有轨道中均集成的活动。
