全球需要培养能够在临床实践中使用研究,将研究知识转化为实践,并开展影响医疗保健质量,疗效和效率的研究的临床科学家。补充和替代医学(CAM)行业接受了培养医生研究人员的呼吁,以开展CAM模式的转化和应用研究。CAM大学在实施研究培训时面临着独特的挑战,与传统的研究密集型(TRI)大学和医学中心相比,大多数医学研究都是在那里进行的。作者介绍了2006年至2012年期间CAM和TRI机构,国立健康科学大学和伊利诺伊大学芝加哥公共卫生学院之间的指导研究计划(MRP)的发展和成果。CAM博士预科生在TRI进行了一个完整的沉浸式学期,包括教学课程和与TRI教师研究导师的积极研究。一半的参与医生的脊椎(DC)的学生继续博士课程和一半建立了综合医学,初级保健临床职业。为导师和学员制定严格的标准,传达期望,在导师,学员和家庭学校顾问之间建立牢固的关系,快速应对障碍,并提供CAM和TRI调查人员的充分支持,是MRP成功的关键。为了维持研究机会,建立了DC和公共卫生硕士(DC/MPH)以及临床和转化研究硕士(DC/MS CTS)的协调学位课程。
The global need to develop clinician-scientists capable of using research in clinical practice, translating research knowledge into practice, and carrying out research that affects the quality, efficacy, and efficiency of health care is well-documented. The complementary and alternative medicine (CAM) professions embrace the call to develop physician-researchers to carry out translational and applied research for CAM modalities. CAM universities face unique challenges when implementing research training compared to traditional, research intensive (TRI) universities and medical centers where the majority of medical research is carried out. The authors present the development and outcomes of a mentored research program (MRP) between a CAM and a TRI institution, the National University of Health Sciences and the University of Illinois at Chicago School of Public Health, between 2006 and 2012. CAM pre-doctoral students engaged in a full-immersion semester at the TRI, including didactic courses and active research with a TRI faculty research mentor. Half of the participating doctor of chiropractic (DC) students continued on to PhD programs and half established integrative medicine, primary care clinical careers. Establishing rigorous criteria for mentors and mentees, communicating expectations, developing solid relationships between the mentor, mentee, and home school advisor, responding quickly to impediments, and providing adequate support from CAM and TRI investigators were key to the MRP success. To sustain research opportunities, coordinated degree programs for the DC and master of public health (DC/MPH) and master of clinical and translational research (DC/MS CTS) were established.
