项目摘要

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. The Core is in its sixth year of support, with the goal of providing an environment that encourages career development in translational neuroscience. Previously, the core had provided the stipend to support a research fellowship for medical students (Mr. Coates, Mr. Kelley, Ms. Ciolino, Ms. Quick and Ms. Pan) who conducted full-time bench research with Drs. Mawe, Wellman, Mawe, Cipolla and Eckenstein, respectively. Mr. Coates published one paper and presented at national meetings. This success motivated Mr. Coates to enter UVM's MD/PhD program. Mr. Kelley has graduated and is currently a resident at the University of North Carolina. Ms. Quick's work has resulted in one published paper while Ms. Ciolino has published two papers. Ms. Pan has graduated with one submitted publication, and she is expected to co-author another. Two MD/PhD students, Joseph Cheung and Julia Cambron, have been supported this year through the Translational Core. A course illustrating the progress of translational neuroscience research has been organized. The course provides an in-depth analysis of research into a single neurological disease. The disease to be covered changes every year. Past disease entities covered include Parkinson's Disease, Multiple Sclerosis, Schizophrenia and Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis and Cerebrovascular Diseases. This year's course will focus on Autism Spectrum Disorders. The course consists of 12 weekly sessions ranging from clinical research to basic molecular approaches. Faculty from the Departments of Neurology, Neurosurgery, Psychology, Medicine and Anatomy & Neurobiology collaborate in this team-taught course. In addition, one to four outside speakers contribute lecture every year (Dr. Michael Moskowitz of Harvard University contributed last year). An Undergraduate Neuroscience Summer fellowship program has been established. Undergraduates perform 10 weeks of research, read primary literature and attend lectures given by COBRE faculty. This year over 110 students (most from institutions outside of UVM) applied, and 8 were accepted. We are focusing on enhancing applications from underrepresented minorities, and two of the eight accepted for this year fall into this category. UVM's Graduate College is actively supporting this effort. Several of our past students have gone on to Ph.D. graduate programs, including two who have joined our Neurosciences program.

该子项目是利用该技术的众多研究子项目之一资源由 NIH/NCRR 资助的中心拨款提供。子项目及研究者 (PI) 可能已从 NIH 的另一个来源获得主要资金，因此可以在其他 CRISP 条目中表示。列出的机构是对于中心来说，它不一定是研究者的机构。 Core 已进入第六个年头，其目标是提供一个鼓励转化神经科学职业发展的环境。此前，核心曾为医学生（Coates 先生、Kelley 先生、Ciolino 女士、Quick 女士和 Pan 女士）提供研究奖学金，这些学生与 Drs. 进行全职实验室研究。分别是 Mawe、Wellman、Mawe、Cipolla 和 Eckenstein。科茨先生发表了一篇论文并在全国会议上发表了演讲。这一成功激励 Coates 先生进入 UVM 的医学博士/博士课程。凯利先生已毕业，目前是北卡罗来纳大学的住院医师。 Quick 女士发表了一篇论文，而 Ciolino 女士发表了两篇论文。潘女士已毕业并提交了一份出版物，预计她将与他人共同撰写另一份出版物。两名医学博士/博士生 Joseph Cheung 和 Julia Cambron 今年通过 Translational Core 获得了支持。已经组织了一门展示转化神经科学研究进展的课程。该课程对单一神经系统疾病的研究进行深入分析。承保的疾病每年都会发生变化。涵盖的既往疾病包括帕金森病、多发性硬化症、精神分裂症、肌萎缩侧索硬化症和脑血管疾病。今年的课程将重点关注自闭症谱系障碍。该课程包括 12 周课程，内容涵盖临床研究到基本分子方法。来自神经病学、神经外科、心理学、医学以及解剖学和神经生物学系的教师在这门团队授课的课程中合作。此外，每年还有一到四名外部演讲者发表演讲（哈佛大学的Michael Moskowitz博士去年贡献了演讲）。本科生神经科学夏季奖学金计划已经建立。本科生进行 10 周的研究、阅读主要文献并参加 COBRE 教师的讲座。今年有超过 110 名学生（大多数来自 UVM 以外的院校）申请，其中 8 名被录取。我们致力于加强代表性不足的少数族裔的申请，今年接受的八份申请中有两份属于这一类别。 UVM 研究生院正在积极支持这项工作。我们过去的几位学生已经继续攻读博士学位。研究生项目，其中包括两名加入我们神经科学项目的人。
