DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The lack of investigators with the skills and clinical knowledge required effectively investigating benign urological disorders and identifying improved methods of diagnosis and treatment has been identified as a critical need by the NIH and Institute of Medicine. In particular, there is a lack of MDs and PhDs with the skills necessary to establish successful careers as independent researchers capable of translating research findings to clinical practice. The University of Wisconsin (UW) is uniquely suited to provide this training. Our training program will benefit substantially from a close and enthusiastic partnership with the Institute for Clinical and Translational Research (ICTR). ICTR is the academic home responsible for implementing programs supported by the Clinical and Translational Sciences Award (CTSA) competitively renewed at the UW. It is a stated goal of the ICTR KL2 training program to include recipients of other institutional or independent K awards in career development activities of the ICTR KL2 program. The resources of the ICTR are manifold and will provide a foundation for our planned recruiting, training, and educational activities. The ICTR has an active KL2 program that currently supports 19 trainees, and these individuals, combined with 3 trainees in the K12 program, constitute a critical mass that will benefit from well-established programs of training and mentoring. Trainees will have the option to pursue graduate degrees or certificates in Clinical Investigation. We will also combine efforts with ICTR to increase the number of underrepresented minorities and disadvantaged individuals choosing to pursue postdoctoral training. There will be synergy between the proposed K12 program and the Educational Enrichment Program described in the recent P20 award for which Dr. Bushman (co-PI of current proposal) is the PI (1 P20 DK097826-01; Urinary Biomarkers of Lower Urinary Tract Symptoms (LUTS) in Men). Further, we are preparing an application for an O'Brien Center award, in accordance with the December 14, 2012, submission deadline for which Dr. Bushman will serve as PI. In summary, this K12 program incorporates excellent trainers in a variety of disciplines who will prepare trainees for outstanding careers as independent researchers investigating problems of significant relevance to benign urology.

描述（由申请人提供）：缺乏具有有效研究良性泌尿科疾病的技能和临床知识的研究人员，并确定改进的诊断和治疗方法已被NIH和医学研究所确定为关键需求。特别是缺乏具有必要技能的MDS和PHD 作为能够将研究结果转化为临床实践的独立研究人员的成功职业。威斯康星大学（UW）非常适合提供此培训。我们的培训计划将从亲密而热情的伙伴关系中受益匪浅 与临床和转化研究所（ICTR）一起。 ICTR是负责实施临床和转化科学奖（CTSA）支持的计划的学术住所。 ICTR KL2培训计划的一个既定目标旨在在ICTR KL2计划的职业发展活动中包括其他机构或独立K奖的获得者。 ICTR的资源是多种多样的，将为我们计划的招聘，培训和教育活动提供基础。 ICTR具有一个活跃的KL2计划，目前支持19名受训者，这些人加上K12计划中的3名学员，构成了一个临界群众，该群众将受益于成熟的培训和指导计划。学员将可以选择攻读临床调查的研究生学位或证书。我们还将与ICTR相结合，以增加代表性不足的少数民族和弱势群体的人数，而这些人选择接受博士后培训。拟议的K12计划与最近在P20奖中描述的教育丰富计划之间将有协同作用，Bushman博士（当前建议的Co-Pi）是PI（1 P20 DK097826-01；男性尿道症状（LUTS）的尿液生物标志物（LUTS）中）。此外，我们正在根据2012年12月14日（Bushman博士将担任PI的提交截止日期）的申请申请O'Brien Center奖。总而言之，该K12计划在各种学科中纳入了出色的教练，他们将为杰出职业的受训者做好准备，因为独立研究人员调查了与良性泌尿外科有很大相关性的问题。
