AAMC HSR INSTITUTE FOR MINORITY FACULTY

描述 这是美国医学院协会的一份申请书 (AAMC)，要求提供四年的资金来举办一系列研讨会 以及由25所少数民族初级医学院的2个小组参加的讲习班 教职员工。每一批人将参加一个为期两年的计划 年(4年内共有50名参与者)。程序是设计的 发展参与者的卫生服务研究(HSR)技能。它是 重点是帮助参与者制定一份概念性文件， 最终成长为R01类型的拨款申请，为期18个月。 这一目标将通过要求 参与者所在部门腾出20%的时间；通过将每个人配对 有导师的参与者；以及所有参与者参加特别是 召开研讨会(其中一个是模拟研究部分，以批评 申请)，以及两次AHSR年会。调查人员还 声明将同时使用过程和结果对计划进行评估 措施。 该应用程序紧密地模仿以前的项目来建模该项目 是由AHCPR在1991年和1993年资助的，它在之前的两个队列中 25名和27名参与者分别通过类似的过程。第一 队列在1994年完成了该计划，第二个队列将完成 该计划于1996年推出。

DESCRIPTION This is an application from the Association of American Medical Colleges (AAMC) that requests funding for four years to conduct a series of seminars and workshops involving 2 cohorts of 25 minority junior medical school faculty members. Each cohort would participate in a program lasting two years ( a total of 50 participants over 4 years). The program is designed to develop the participants' health services research (HSR) skills. It is focused on helping the participants develop a concept paper that would eventually grow into an R01-type grant application, over an 18-month period. This goal will be accomplished by demanding a commitment from the participant's department to free 20% of his/her time; by pairing each participant with a mentor; and by all participants attending four especially convened seminars (one being a mock study section to critique the applications), as well as two AHSR annual meetings. The investigators also state that the program will be evaluated using both process and outcome measures. The application models the project closely on predecessor projects which were funded by AHCPR in 1991 and 1993 which have taken 2 previous cohorts of 25 and 27 participants respectively through a similar process. The first cohort completed the program in 1994, and the second cohort will complete the program in 1996.
