...... report of a November 1999
workshop ......
As scientific knowledge accumulates at an
ever-increasing pace, extraordinary opportunities present themselves for making
substantial progress in all aspects of biomedical science. To make the most of
these opportunities, new approaches and competencies are required of modern
investigators — and accordingly, major innovations in recruiting,
educating, training, and retaining the future research work force are called
for.
With these imperatives in mind, the National Heart,
Lung, and Blood Institute (NHLBI) undertook a review of its current training
and career development programs and convened a meeting of experts on November
2-3, 1999, to consider all aspects of this important area. The deliberations
produced a number of recommendations, summarized in this report.
