鉴于社会工作教师进行老龄化研究的未开发潜力，我们已经设计，实施和评估了在美国老龄化研究的教师培训计划。具体目标包括：加强参与者有关研究方法的知识和技能，提高他们对老龄化研究资助的认识，建立参与者的专业网络和导师机会，以及增加他们向外部资助机构提交强有力申请的数量。这期特刊介绍了参与者在培训计划中的经验，以及培训计划如何有助于他们在一系列背景下有效进行老龄化研究的能力。特别是，参与者分享了他们为获得美国国立卫生研究院、疾病控制和预防中心和阿尔茨海默氏症协会等机构的资助而采取的步骤，以及他们在这种支持下进行的研究。项目参与者还描述了他们如何让本科生和研究生参与他们的研究项目，学生开展了哪些活动，以及学生如何从这些经历中受益。由于访问教师在培训计划中发挥了关键作用，作为教师和导师，我们还包括了一篇论文，重点是他们的反思，为什么他们同意担任教师，他们以何种方式为培训活动做出了贡献，他们在该计划中的工作如何影响他们，以及他们会给年轻的教师提出什么样的建议，他们正在发展自己的研究。
Given the untapped potential of social work faculty to conduct aging research, we have designed, implemented, and evaluated a faculty training program in aging research in the United States. Specific aims included: strengthening participants' knowledge and skills related to research methodology, enhancing their awareness of grant support available for aging research, building participants' professional network and opportunities for mentorship, and increasing the number of strong applications they submit to external funding agencies. This special issue presents participants' experiences with the training program and how it contributed to their ability to effectively conduct aging research in a range of contexts. In particular, participants share the steps they took to secure grant support from agencies such as National Institutes of Health, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and Alzheimer's Association, and the research they conducted with this support. Program participants also describe how they involved undergraduate and graduate students in their research projects, what activities the students undertook, and how the students benefited from these experiences. Since the visiting faculty played a key role in the training program as instructors and mentors, we have also included a paper that focuses on their reflections regarding why they agreed to serve as faculty, in what ways they contributed to the training activities, how their work in the program affected them, and what suggestions they would give to junior faculty who are growing their research in aging.
