PROJECT SUMMARY The University of Iowa Medical Scientist Training Program (MSTP) has successfully prepared students for careers as physician-scientists since its inception as an NIH-funded MSTP in 1977. The goal of the MSTP is to recruit, nurture, and graduate a diverse pool of well-trained physician-scientists with the technical, operational, and professional skills necessary to transition into successful careers in the biomedical research workforce. This goal is achieved through an integrated curriculum that assimilates scientific and clinical training, constantly emphasizing the intersections between science and medicine. Students complete 1.5 years of pre-clinical medical coursework, 4 to 5 years of graduate training, and approximately 1.5 years of clinical clerkships to fulfill the requirements for both the MD and PhD degrees. We have defined seven specific objectives for our graduating students, which are measured in our evidenced-based evaluation process. Upon completion of the MSTP, graduating students will be able to: 1) Combine the knowledge bases of science and medicine to establish a strong foundation; 2) Integrate critical thinking, reasoning and rigor in the conduct of research; 3) Demonstrate integrity in research and clinical practice; 4) Demonstrate skills in oral and written communication; 5) Recognize the importance of diversity, equity and inclusion; work effectively in a diverse professional environment, demonstrating respect for individual differences; 6) Demonstrate leadership in research and clinical care; and 7) Understand the diversity of career options for physician scientists. The U of Iowa MSTP is led by Co-PIs Steven Lentz, MD, PhD (Director) and Pamela Geyer, PhD (Co-Director) who share a long-standing passion for mentoring and training physician-scientists. The Program incorporates specific coursework and activities throughout the course of study to provide integration and enrichment of the curriculum and foster program identity, professionalism, teamwork, communication, career development skills, and mentorship of students during transitions. The Program has 87 talented and diverse faculty members who provide exciting research training opportunities. Students are extensively involved in MSTP leadership, serving as members on the Executive, Admissions, MSTP Mondays, Seminar, Retreat, Wellness, and Women's Group committees. The Program enjoys strong institutional support from the Deans of the Carver College of Medicine and the Graduate College, who promote the MSTP as a driver for innovation in research, education and service at the university. The U of Iowa MSTP currently has 73 trainees, of which 43% are women and 18% are from groups underrepresented in medicine. The majority of our graduates have gone on to careers at major academic medical centers or research institutions. This application requests support for 18 trainees per year, reflecting the strength and outcomes of our training program.

项目摘要 爱荷华大学医学科学家培训计划（MSTP）成功准备了学生 自从1977年作为NIH资助的MSTP成立以来，作为医师科学家的职业。 MSTP将招募，培育和毕业，以培训训练有素的医师科学家多样化 过渡到成功职业所必需的技术，运营和专业技能 生物医学研究人员。通过同化的集成课程实现了这一目标 科学和临床培训，不断强调科学与医学之间的交集。 学生完成1。5年的临床前医疗课程，4至5年的研究生培训，以及 大约有1。5年的临床职员，以满足MD和PHD学位的要求。 我们为即将毕业的学生定义了七个特定目标，这是在我们的 基于证据的评估过程。 MSTP完成后，即将毕业的学生可以： 1）结合科学和医学的知识库以建立坚实的基础； 2）集成 批判性思维，推理和严格的研究； 3）在研究和 临床实践； 4）展示口头和书面交流的技能； 5）认识到的重要性 多样性，公平性和包容性；在多样化的专业环境中有效工作，证明 尊重个体差异； 6）在研究和临床护理方面表现出领导地位；和7） 了解医师科学家的职业选择的多样性。爱荷华州MSTP的U由Co-Pis领导 史蒂文·伦茨（Steven Lentz），医学博士（主任）和帕梅拉·盖尔（Pamela Geyer） 对指导和培训医师科学家的热情。该计划结合了特定的课程 和整个研究过程中的活动，以提供课程的整合和丰富和丰富 培养计划的身份，专业精神，团队合作，沟通，职业发展技能以及 过渡期间学生的指导。该计划有87位才华横溢的教职员工 谁提供令人兴奋的研究培训机会。学生广泛参与MSTP 领导力，担任高管，招生，MSTP星期一，研讨会，务虚会的成员 健康和妇女团体委员会。该计划享有来自 卡佛医学院和研究生学院的院长，他们将MSTP宣传 在大学的研究，教育和服务方面进行创新。爱荷华州MSTP的U当前有73 受训人员，其中43％是妇女，18％来自医学人数不足的人群。多数 我们的毕业生中有主要学术医疗中心或研究机构的职业。 该申请要求每年为18名学员提供支持，反映了我们的实力和结果 培训计划。
