# Hematology Research Training Program

> **NIH NIH T32** · UNIVERSITY OF MINNESOTA · 2020 · $498,131

## Abstract

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT
The American Society of Hematology and National Heart Lung and Blood Insititue has highlighted the need for
the training of physicians and scientists, basic and clinical translational research, in hematology. The training
program in hematology at the University of Minnesota addresses this concern by providing: 1) inter- and multi-
disciplinary research training in five major realms of hematology; 2) senior and junior faculty members of both
genders as mentors; 3) a fusion of research and clinical training for physician and PhD trainees; 4) an
outstanding resource-filled environment; and 5) the skills for trainees to both survive and thrive in academic
medicine. The overarching objective of the training program is to train physicians and scientists for careers in
academic medicine and hematology related research. Our program philosophy is to achieve this by carefully
balancing sufficient structure to ensure rigor of the trainee experience and programmatic flexibility to
accommodate the different needs of trainees. It is our intention to provide trainees with the basic skills that are
adaptable to new paradigms of disease, capable of embracing of new technologies, and committed to the
highest ethical standards. This post-doctoral training program will allow six trainees at least two years of
research experience. This hematology training program, in the tradition of the last 40 years, is confident that
future leaders of hematology research will matriculate through the University of Minnesota program.
