项目摘要

Project Summary There is a strong need in psychiatry to invigorate the career development of physician-scientists who can apply advances in neuroscience to applications that improve the diagnosis and treatment of psychiatric patients. The need for physician-scientists in psychiatry may be greater than in other fields of medicine, since at present, we still rely almost entirely on the clinical interaction between clinician and patients to obtain the information needed to establish a diagnosis, to select the most appropriate treatment, and to evaluate the effects of that treatment. One day we may be able to apply biomarkers derived from a knowledge of disease mechanisms to assist in establishment of a diagnosis and to select treatment, but even these biomarkers will need to be validated using clinical information collected by physician-scientists, and then integrated with the patient's clinical narrative to arrive at a precise diagnosis and develop an effective treatment plan. The proposed R25 program at Northwestern University Feinberg School of Medicine (NUFSM) aims to enrich research training for general psychiatry residents and clinical fellows during their usual period of training, so that these individuals maintain and further consolidate their commitment to a career in research that is aligned with the strategic plan of NIMH. We aim to support their training so that they strengthen their commitment to an academic career pathway, where they will acquire critical skills in study design, research methodologies, data analysis, grant writing and career development. Applicants to our post-graduate training programs in psychiatry already demonstrate strong interests and aptitudes for academic careers. Thus, our Northwestern trainees are excellent candidates for an enriched research experience. Also, educational assets currently in place at Northwestern through our CTSA, Physician Scientist Training Programs, Masters of Clinical Investigation program, and various interdepartmental graduate programs can be leveraged to increase the impact of the proposed R25 program. If successful, this application would create the only R25 physician-scientist training program for psychiatry residents in the central Midwest.

项目概要精神病学领域迫切需要振兴能够申请的医师科学家的职业发展神经科学的进步应用于改善精神病患者的诊断和治疗。这精神病学对医师科学家的需求可能比其他医学领域更大，因为目前，我们仍然几乎完全依赖临床医生和患者之间的临床互动来获取信息需要建立诊断、选择最合适的治疗方法并评估治疗效果治疗。有一天，我们也许能够将源自疾病机制知识的生物标志物应用于协助诊断和选择治疗，但即使是这些生物标志物也需要使用医师科学家收集的临床信息进行验证，然后与患者的情况相结合临床叙述以达到精确的诊断并制定有效的治疗计划。西北大学范伯格医学院 (NUFSM) 拟议的 R25 项目旨在丰富在平时的培训期间对普通精神病学住院医师和临床研究员进行研究培训，因此这些人保持并进一步巩固他们对一致的研究职业的承诺符合 NIMH 的战略计划。我们的目标是支持他们的培训，以便他们加强对学术职业道路，他们将获得研究设计、研究方法、数据方面的关键技能分析、资助写作和职业发展。精神病学研究生培训项目的申请人已经表现出对学术职业的浓厚兴趣和能力。所以我们西北的学员具有丰富研究经验的优秀候选人。此外，目前的教育资产西北大学通过我们的 CTSA、医师科学家培训计划、临床研究硕士计划和各种跨部门研究生计划可以用来增加该计划的影响力拟议的 R25 计划。如果成功，该应用程序将创建唯一的 R25 医师科学家培训中西部中部精神病学住院医师计划。
