The Developing Center On Public Health And Interventions

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请为预防自杀的公共卫生和人口干预研究中心（DC-PHPIPS;请注意，在整个文本中，这将被简化为PHP-Center）代表我们对公共卫生和人口导向的方法的集体愿景，以预防自杀和自杀未遂，以及由无数相关风险因素引起的发病率。PHP-Center是一个合作研究联盟的产物，该联盟涉及一系列不同但互补的科学家，他们将专注于设计，实施和评估新的预防计划，并开发和测试新的预防理论。PHP中心正在发展成为一个没有围墙的中心，尽管它位于罗切斯特大学自杀研究和预防中心。具体来说，PHP中心旨在建立一个独特的，多学科的研究企业，将提供自杀预防的发展领域的智力中心;发起以科学为导向的自杀预防和公共心理健康年会;开发，实施和评估新的研究设计和措施的使用，将新的理论和分析方法应用于自杀预防和干预研究;创建“预防研究孵化器”（PRI;“孵化器”），以促进严谨的研究，建立在“自然的机会”，现在正在出现的发展;并进行高质量的调查，推动努力，以减少自杀，自杀未遂，和相关的先决条件的死亡率和发病率。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application for the DEVELOPING CENTER ON PUBLIC HEALTH AND POPULATION INTERVENTIONS FOR THE PREVENTION OF SUICIDE (DC-PHPIPS; note that throughout the text this will be simplified to PHP-Center) represents our collective vision for public health and population-oriented approaches to preventing suicide and attempted suicide, and the morbidity arising from myriad associated risk factors. The PHP-Center is the product of a collaborative research consortium involving a diverse, yet complementary array of scientists who will focus their efforts on designing, implementing, and evaluating new prevention programs, and developing and testing new theories of prevention. The PHP-Center is developing as a center that has no walls, even as it is based at the University of Rochester's Center for the Study and Prevention of Suicide. Specifically, the PHP-Center aims to build a unique, multidisciplinary research enterprise that will provide an intellectual epicenter for the developing field of suicide prevention; initiate a scientifically-oriented Suicide Prevention and Public Mental Health annual meeting; develop, implement, and assess the use of novel research designs and measures, and extend the application of new theoretical and analytic approaches to suicide prevention and intervention research; create a "Prevention Research Incubator (PRI; "Incubator") to foster the development of rigorous research that builds upon the 'natural opportunities' that now are arising; and, carry out high quality investigations that move forward efforts to reduce the mortality and morbidity of suicide, attempted suicide, and related antecedent conditions.
