Substance use and substance use disorders (SUD) constitute major public health problems due to their associated disability, comorbidity and mortality. Addressing these burdens requires cutting-edge public health research conducted by scientists of the highest caliber. In 2012, the Substance Abuse Epidemiology Training Program (SAETP) at Columbia University Irving Medical Center (CUIMC) in New York City was established with the objective of training talented young scientists to become the next generation of leaders in substance abuse epidemiology. Through competitive applications, SAETP has successfully, attracted a diverse group of fellows that have been productive and successful during and after training. Completed SAETP fellows have attained prestigious research positions in academic research settings and many have obtained their own independent funding. We now propose the next 5-year renewal cycle for SAETP. SAETP exists in a very rich, stimulating environment, offering unparalleled academic medical center resources. With its specialized training for substance abuse epidemiology careers, SAETP is unique at CUIMC. Dr. Deborah Hasin and Dr. Silvia Martins, SAETP MPIs, are internationally recognized substance abuse epidemiologists with extensive successful mentoring experience. The 24 other SAETP faculty members offer interdisciplinary expertise (e.g., epidemiology, psychiatry, psychology, sociomedical sciences, biostatistics, nursing) and have outstanding records of publishing, funding, collaborations, and mentoring productive and successful trainees. At any given time in the renewal, SAETP will continue to train 4 pre-doctoral fellows for training periods of 3-5 years each, and 4 post-doctoral fellows for training periods of 2-3 years each, a number that has worked well in the current cycle. Fellows will be selected based on their prior accomplishments, commitment to substance abuse epidemiology careers, and fit with the SAETP program. Recruitment efforts to enroll under-represented minority trainees have been successful, with 33% of SAETP fellows from such groups to date (50% currently); we will continue these recruitment efforts. SAETP will provide broad, intensive training in substance abuse epidemiology and related areas; depth in one or more areas of specialization; cutting-edge methodological skills, development of conceptual skills, including formulation of key research questions and testable hypotheses, and the ability to design and conduct high-quality substance abuse epidemiology studies. Fellows will receive mentoring and participate in many training components, e.g., weekly substance abuse epidemiology faculty-fellow seminars, research internships, academic courses. Fellows will also receive training in the Responsible Conduct of Research and Rigor and Reproducibility in Research. SAETP training will enable fellows to publish papers, hone presentation skills, learn to write fundable grant proposals, and enhance collaboration and leadership skills. This rigorous, enriched training will prepare a new generation of outstanding researchers to address the epidemiology of substance use and SUD, which are urgent public health problems.

物质使用和物质使用障碍 (SUD) 构成了重大的公共卫生问题，因为它们 相关的残疾、合并症和死亡率。解决这些负担需要尖端的公共卫生 由最高水平的科学家进行的研究。 2012年药物滥用流行病学培训 纽约市哥伦比亚大学欧文医学中心 (CUIMC) 项目 (SAETP) 成立 目标是培养有才华的年轻科学家成为下一代实质领导者 滥用流行病学。通过竞争性申请，SAETP 已成功吸引了多元化的群体 培训期间和培训后富有成效和成功的研究员。完成 SAETP 研究员有 在学术研究环境中获得了享有声望的研究职位，许多人还获得了自己的 独立资助。我们现在为 SAETP 提出下一个 5 年更新周期。 SAETP 存在于一个非常丰富的、 刺激的环境，提供无与伦比的学术医疗中心资源。凭借其专业的培训 对于药物滥用流行病学职业，SAETP 在 CUIMC 是独一无二的。黛博拉·哈辛博士和西尔维娅博士 Martins，SAETP MPI，是国际公认的药物滥用流行病学家，拥有广泛的研究经验。 成功的辅导经验。其他 24 名 SAETP 教员提供跨学科专业知识（例如， 流行病学、精神病学、心理学、社会医学科学、生物统计学、护理学）并拥有杰出的 出版、资助、合作以及指导富有成效和成功的学员的记录。在任意给定的 续签期间，SAETP将继续培养4名博士前研究员，每人培训期限为3-5年， 博士后4名，培训期限2-3年，在当前工作中发挥了良好的作用 循环。研究员将根据他们之前的成就、对药物滥用的承诺来选择 流行病学职业，并符合 SAETP 计划。招募代表性不足的少数族裔的努力 受训者取得了成功，迄今为止，33% 的 SAETP 研究员来自此类团体（目前为 50%）；我们将 继续这些招聘工作。 SAETP 将提供有关药物滥用的广泛、强化培训 流行病学及相关领域；在一个或多个专业领域的深度；前沿方法论 技能、概念技能的发展，包括关键研究问题和可测试问题的制定 假设，以及设计和进行高质量药物滥用流行病学研究的能力。研究员 将接受指导并参加许多培训内容，例如每周药物滥用 流行病学教员研讨会、研究实习、学术课程。研究员也将接受培训 负责任的研究行为以及研究的严谨性和可重复性。 SAETP 培训将使 研究员发表论文，磨练演讲技巧，学习撰写可资助的拨款提案，并提高 协作和领导能力。这种严格、丰富的培训将培养新一代的优秀人才 研究人员致力于解决药物滥用和 SUD 的流行病学问题，这是紧迫的公共卫生问题。
