DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Vanderbilt University has a long and distinguished history of advancing the science and practice of medicine and preparing scholars for basic and clinical research. The K30 Clinical Research Curriculum, founded in 1999, provides the foundation of support that has strengthened and expanded Vanderbilt's capacity to train clinical investigators. Its 44 current NIH training grants and remarkable expansion of its research programs over the past five years exemplifies its exciting clinical research environment. In 1999, Vanderbilt created a formal alliance with Meharry Medical College to support clinical research and training which has successfully competed for 66 grants, several NIH funded centers and grants, and a clinical research training program that extensively utilizes the Vanderbilt K30 curriculum. The goal of this proposal is to improve the formal clinical research curriculum developed through the initial K30 award for the multidisciplinary clinical research training of clinical investigator trainees at Vanderbilt University Medical Center and Meharry Medical College. This formalized curriculum provides fundamental skills, methodology, theories, and conceptualizations necessary for a well-trained, independent, clinical researcher to make life-long contributions to the advancement of medicine and medical science. The curriculum and learning environment is designed to provide a basis for the development of careers and scientific endeavors across the spectrum of clinical investigation. The training therefore provides preparation for (1) patient-oriented research -including mechanisms of human disease, therapeutic interventions, clinical trials, and the development of new technologies; (2) epidemiologic and behavioral studies; and (3) health services research. The curriculum supports trainees through three degree programs: (1) Vanderbilt Master of Science in Clinical Investigation; (2) Vanderbilt Master of Public Health and (3) Meharry Master of Science in Clinical Investigation. In this next phase of the clinical research curriculum, the program will (1) work with the Vanderbilt Center on Teaching to evaluate and improve each course, (2) expand and improve elective courses for additional depth in selected areas, (3) implement continuous quality improvement processes within all courses and within the overall program structure, as well as continue to recruit and train exceptional clinical investigators.

描述（由申请人提供）： 范德比尔特大学在推动医学科学和实践以及为基础和临床研究培养学者方面拥有悠久而辉煌的历史。 K30 临床研究课程创立于 1999 年，为加强和扩大范德比尔特培训临床研究人员的能力提供了支持基础。 目前 NIH 的 44 项培训资助以及过去五年中研究项目的显着扩展体现了其令人兴奋的临床研究环境。 1999 年，范德比尔特与梅哈里医学院建立了正式联盟，以支持临床研究和培训，该联盟已成功竞争 66 项拨款、多个 NIH 资助的中心和拨款，以及广泛利用范德比尔特 K30 课程的临床研究培训计划。 该提案的目标是改进通过最初的 K30 奖项开发的正式临床研究课程，用于范德比尔特大学医学中心和梅哈里医学院的临床研究者实习生的多学科临床研究培训。这个正式的课程提供了训练有素的、独立的临床研究人员所必需的基本技能、方法论、理论和概念，以便他们为医学和医学科学的进步做出终身贡献。 课程和学习环境旨在为整个临床研究领域的职业发展和科学努力提供基础。 因此，培训为（1）以患者为导向的研究做好了准备——包括人类疾病机制、治疗干预、临床试验和新技术的开发； (2)流行病学和行为研究； (3) 卫生服务研究。 该课程通过三个学位课程支持学员：（1）范德比尔特临床研究理学硕士； (2) 范德比尔特公共卫生硕士和 (3) 梅哈里临床研究理学硕士。 在临床研究课程的下一阶段，该计划将（1）与范德比尔特教学中心合作评估和改进每门课程，（2）扩展和改进选修课程，以进一步提高所选领域的深度，（3）在所有课程和整个计划结构内实施持续的质量改进流程，并继续招募和培训优秀的临床研究人员。
