The Next Generation Substance Abuse Research Training at Charles R. Drew University (CDU) and UCLA (NGSART-CU)

代表性不足的少数群体研究人员和来自弱势群体的研究人员 背景在一般研究和资助中的代表性不足， 妮达下一代物质滥用障碍研究训练在查尔斯 R.德鲁大学（CDU）和加州大学洛杉矶分校（NGSART-CU;被称为SART）建立在15个 DIDARP/MIDARP计划（PI：Friedman），其中125人主要是少数民族 学生在物质使用障碍领域获得了有意义的研究经验 沿着培训和指导。该补助金旨在提供假设驱动的 研究、技能发展课程和主要面向本科生的指导， 在既定的支线计划中获得学士学位后和硕士学位的学生（早期阶段） 在CDU，需要一个研究项目/论文和博士后学生的目标， 培养下一代物质使用障碍研究人员。学员将 允许从16名高级物质使用障碍研究人员中选择一名导师， CDU和加州大学洛杉矶分校，也将有6个社区教师导师， 将帮助学员进行传播和社区参与， CDU的特色研究主题将涵盖物质使用障碍的广泛领域 研究将由NIDA资助，并将包括基础科学的机会， 临床、流行病学和生物行为研究。广泛的技能建设 将为参与者提供培训，旨在将他们的研究推进到下一个 水平NGSART-CU的目标是： 1.为大多数代表性不足的人提供假设驱动的研究机会 少数民族本科生、学士后和硕士生（早期） （目标16/年）和博士后研究生（目标3/年） 2.提供创新的、最先进的技能发展课程， 学员的技能，以推进到物质使用障碍研究的下一个层次。 3.向受训人员提供负责任地进行研究的培训 我们希望这个R25赠款将培训下一代的物质使用障碍 研究人员，并为他们提供技能，使他们能够成功地在他们的下一个 研究水平。

Underrepresented minority researchers and researchers from disadvantaged backgrounds are underrepresented in both research in general and in funding from NIDA. The Next Generation Substance Abuse Disorders Research Training at Charles R. Drew University (CDU) and UCLA (NGSART-CU; to be known as SART) builds on 15 years of DIDARP/MIDARP program (PI: Friedman) in which 125 mostly minority students received a meaningful research experience in substance use disorder fields along with training and mentorship. This grant proposes to provide hypothesis-driven research, courses for skill development and mentorship primarily to undergraduates, post-baccalaureate and masters students (early-stage) in established feeder programs at CDU that require a research project/thesis and post-doctoral students with the goal of training the next generation of substance use disorder researchers. Trainees will be allowed to choose a mentor from one of 16 senior substance use disorder researchers at CDU and UCLA and will also have the option of one of 6 community faculty mentors that will help the trainee with dissemination and community engagement, one of the specialties of CDU. Research topics will cover the broad area of substance use disorder research that would be funded by NIDA and will include opportunities for basic science, clinical, epidemiological and biobehavioral research. A wide array of skill building trainings will be offered to participants designed to advance their research to the next level. The aims of NGSART-CU are: 1. To provide-hypothesis driven-research opportunities to mostly underrepresented minority undergraduates, post-baccalaureate and masters students (early-stage) (Target 16/year) and post-doctoral students (Target 3/year) 2. To provide innovative, state-of-the-art courses for skill development to give trainees skills to advance to the next level of substance use disorder research. 3. To provide training in responsible conduct of research to trainees We expect this R25 grant will train the next generation of substance use disorder researchers and provide them with skills that will allow them to succeed at their next research level.
