DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed training program in "Aging Health and Health Services Research" will be implemented within an environment rich in research resources and a proven track record of advanced training in research methods with application to aging, chronic illness and health care delivery systems. The Brown University Department of Community Health has a long established commitment to studies of health services in the elderly and chronically ill populations. The Department of Community health has 20 tenured, tenure-track, or fixed term faculty, 10 faculty members with joint appointments (Sociology, Economics, Medicine, etc.), 30 research faculty, and 56 volunteer faculty (from the state's Department of Health, Department of Mental Health, Rehabilitation and Hospitals as well as from Community Service Agencies). The 50 full-time and research faculty are Pl's on over 70 grants and research contracts with an annual budget in excess of 25 million dollars. These grants currently support nearly a dozen graduate students. This proposal seeks funding for 4 traineeships per year that would allow us to recruit the best students as fellows in their first two to three years of graduate studies. The proposed project addresses all 4 of the major goals of the NIA Strategic Plan for research, by educating well trained researchers, with multi-disciplinary experience and a broad understanding of the biological, social, health, service and policy aspects of aging. At the same time, they will be knowledgeable and highly skilled in the traditional and emerging methodologies for analyzing the highly complex and nested data that characterize the new era of Epidemiology. The training grant has five specific aims: 1) Recruit high quality doctoral students into aging research; 2) Provide training in substantive topics relevant to health services research in aging; 3) Provide education in epidemiological methods and statistical approaches with applications to aging research; 4) Provide research experiences in ongoing epidemiological and health services research projects; and, 5) Prepare students for academic and research careers as independent scientists. These aims will be accomplished by a combination of prescribed courses, mandatory seminars, journal clubs and training program meetings as well as applied research experiences working with any one of the numerous funded faculty.

描述（由申请人提供）：“老龄化健康和健康服务研究”的拟议培训计划将在一个研究资源丰富的环境中实施，并在研究方法中应用于老龄化，慢性病和医疗保健提供系统的先进培训方面有良好的记录。布朗大学社区卫生系长期致力于老年人和慢性病人群的卫生服务研究。社区卫生系有20名终身教职、终身制或固定任期教职员工，10名联合任命的教职员工（社会学、经济学、医学等），30名研究人员和56名志愿者教师（来自该州卫生部，精神卫生部，康复和医院以及社区服务机构）。50名全职和研究人员是PL的超过70赠款和研究合同，每年的预算超过2500万美元。这些赠款目前支持了近十几名研究生。这项提案寻求每年4个实习生的资金，使我们能够在研究生学习的前两到三年招募最好的学生作为研究员。 拟议的项目涉及NIA研究战略计划的所有4个主要目标，通过教育训练有素的研究人员，具有多学科经验和对老龄化的生物，社会，健康，服务和政策方面的广泛理解。与此同时，他们将在传统和新兴方法学方面知识渊博，技能高超，用于分析流行病学新时代的高度复杂和嵌套数据。培训补助金有五个具体目标：（1）招募高素质的博士生从事老龄化研究;（2）提供与老龄化保健服务研究有关的实质性专题的培训;（3）提供流行病学方法和统计方法在老龄化研究中的应用方面的教育;（4）提供正在进行的流行病学和保健服务研究项目的研究经验; 5）为学生作为独立科学家的学术和研究生涯做好准备。这些目标将通过规定的课程，强制性研讨会，期刊俱乐部和培训计划会议以及与众多资助教师中的任何一个合作的应用研究经验相结合来实现。
