CENTER ON DEMOGRAPHY AND ECONOMICS OF HEALTH AND AGING

斯坦福大学人口与健康与老龄化经济学中心（CDEHA）将促进人口、经济、健康和医疗保健趋势的研究，以及这些趋势对老年人福祉的影响。其方案项目领域是：1)医疗技术对老年人的成本、结果和福祉的影响；2)美国和其他国家的医疗保健、成本、健康和经济结果的纵向和队列研究；3)退休经济学与人口变化；4)国际人口研究。建议支助行政和通讯基础设施（核心A）；从所有四个方案领域的活动开始发展新项目（核心B）；创新的外部网络活动，以支持关于保健和保健技术增长的内部协作以及关于人口研究的内部协作（核心C）。这些核心的覆盖范围补充了对医学院正在进行的活动的现有支持。经济学系莫里森人口和资源研究所，初级保健和结果研究中心，以及卫生政策中心。咨询委员会将负责监督CDEHA的活动。受益于支持多学科研究的大学环境，CDEHA可以获得临床专业知识和经济学以及与人口统计学和经济学相关的其他学科的优势的独特组合；能够利用正在进行的项目和研究支持的广泛基础，以及与项目领域相关的美国和国际数据的收集，以及与大型纵向数据库一起工作的专业知识。拟议中的中心将支持加强通信、研讨会、主要会议和研究开发。它包含了吸引实习生和初级教员的机制。对CDEHA活动的结构化持续评价应使中心能够根据经验和机会修改其程序和研究领域。

The Stanford Center on the Demography and Economics of Health and Aging (CDEHA) will promote the study of trends in demography, economics, health, and health care, and the effects of these trends on the well-being on the elderly. Its program project areas are: 1) effects of medical technology on costs, outcomes, and well-being of the elderly; 2) longitudinal and cohort studies of medical care, costs, and health and economic outcomes in the United States and other countries; 3) economics of retirement and demographic change; and 4) international population studies. Support is proposed for administrative and communications infrastructure (Core A); new project development beginning with activity in all four program areas (Core B); and innovative external network activities in support of an internal collaboration on health and health care technology growth and another on population studies (Core C). Reach of these cores supplements existing support for ongoing activities in the medical school. Economics department Morrison Institute for Population and Resource Studies, the Center for Primary Care and Outcomes Researcher, and the Center for Health Policy. An Advisory committee will be responsible for oversight of CDEHA activities. Benefitting from a university environment supportive of multi-disciplinary research, CDEHA has access to a unique combination of clinical expertise and strength in economics and other disciplines relevant to demography and economics; the ability to draw upon an extensive foundation of ongoing projects and research support and collections of U.S. and international data relevant to the program areas, along with the expertise to work with large longitudinal databases. The proposed center will support enhanced communications, seminars, major conferences, and research development. It incorporates mechanisms to attract trainees and junior faculty. Structured ongoing evaluation of CDEHA activities should enable the center to modify its procedures and research areas as experience and opportunities dictate.
