Project Summary: This R25 application seeks five years of sponsorship for our advanced training course entitled: Frontiers in Reproduction (FIR), held annually at the MBL in Woods Hole under the Directorship of Dr. Rafael A. Fissore (UMass, Amherst). The course is directed towards advanced graduate students, post-doctoral fellows, and physician-scientists who are committed to fundamental, translational or clinical research studies in the field of reproductive biology. FIR introduces participating trainees to state-of-the-art research in the field, spanning reproductive endocrinology, germ cell and organ development, gametogenesis and implantation and placentation, and Assisted Reproductive Technologies (ART). We provide trainees with fundamental concepts, knowledge of “cutting edge” research and laboratory techniques, career mentoring and instruction in the ethical, legal, and societal impact of research in reproduction. To achieve this goal, we propose the following specific aims: 1) Provide a coherent series of lectures covering fundamental concepts spanning the broad field of reproductive biology and introducing students to the open questions in the field. 2) Provide lectures and discussions on the emerging concepts and techniques in ART and its applications. 3) Train students in advanced cellular and molecular techniques required to probe the cellular and organ function underlying reproduction through state-of-the-art and hands-on demonstrations and mini-projects. 4) Provide opportunities for career planning and advancement by offering training on scientific communication, data analysis, and oral presentations. 5) Educate trainees on the ethical considerations involved in the use of human and animals, and on the use of animals as research models. 6) Foster a diverse, collegial environment that leads to long-term mentorship relationships and collaborations among trainees and between students and faculty. FIR is divided into three topical scientific sections, each lasting 2 weeks. The course meets 5-6 days a week with 2 daily lectures and hands-on laboratory exercises. FIR continually incorporates new faculty, topics and technological breakthroughs to ensure that the training remains at the forefront of the field. The course will provide a significant benefit to biomedical research through the training of new investigators in the field of reproductive biology and biotechnology, and ART. Reproductive science is a broad and well-established field with enormous impact in society and with biomedical implications across the entire spectrum of NIH’s portfolios.

项目摘要：此 R25 申请为我们的高级培训课程寻求五年的赞助 题为：生殖前沿（FIR），每年在伍兹霍尔的 MBL 举办，由 Dr. Rafael A. Fissore（麻省大学阿默斯特分校）该课程面向高级研究生、博士后。 致力于基础、转化或临床研究的研究员和医师科学家 FIR 向学员介绍该领域最先进的研究， 涵盖生殖内分泌学、生殖细胞和器官发育、配子发生和植入以及 我们为学员提供基本概念、胎盘植入和辅助生殖技术（ART）。 “尖端”研究和实验室技术知识、职业指导和道德指导、 生殖研究的法律和社会影响 为了实现这一目标，我们提出以下具体建议。 目标： 1）提供一系列连贯的讲座，涵盖广泛的领域的基本概念 生殖生物学并向学生介绍该领域的开放性问题 2) 提供讲座和指导。 讨论 ART 中的新兴概念和技术及其应用 3) 对学生进行高级培训。 探测生殖细胞和器官功能所需的细胞和分子技术 通过最先进的实践演示和小型项目 4) 提供职业机会。 通过提供科学传播、数据分析和口语培训来规划和推进 5) 对学员进行有关使用人类和动物的道德考虑的教育，以及 使用动物作为研究模型 6) 营造一个多元化的学院环境，以实现长期的目标。 受训者之间以及学生和教师之间的指导关系和合作存在分歧。 该课程分为三个主题科学部分，每个部分持续 2 周，每周 5-6 天，每天 2 次讲座。 FIR 不断融入新的师资、主题和技术。 突破以确保培训保持在该领域的前沿。 通过培训生殖生物学领域的新研究人员，有利于生物医学研究 生物技术和生殖科学是一个广泛且成熟的领域，对人类产生巨大影响。 社会并对 NIH 整个投资组合领域产生生物医学影响。
