DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed NRSA program will focus on training postdoctoral fellows in Mental Health Services Research. The proposed program is a five-year extension of the currently funded NRSA fellowship program at the Centers for Mental Healthcare Research, University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS). The goal of the postdoctoral program is to produce accomplished researchers poised to lead independently funded studies in collaborative mental health services research environments. In support of this goal, trainees are immersed in a multidisciplinary program of mentored research, customized didactics, and supplemental formal and informal instruction. Trainees will represent a variety of disciplines such as psychiatry, nursing, psychology, sociology, social work, economics, and biostatistics. Producing new investigators builds and sustains the mental health research field. As one of the few large mental health services research groups in the nation and one of the few based on an academic health sciences campus, the Centers for Mental Healthcare Research offers a unique training opportunity for both physicians and non-physicians to learn the skills and knowledge to be successful as a mental health research investigator. The proposed program will include both common and specialized components to address similarities and differences in prior education, clinical experiences, and areas of competency that trainees bring to the program. Program components include mentored research activities and a core of four seminars developed specifically for the trainees. Faculty will individualize the academic and research opportunities for trainees to enhance their existing experience and research interests. In addition, trainees will receive individual mentoring to develop research proposals, papers, and grants applications. Three aspects of this competitive renewal are different from our submission 5 years ago and add to the depth and breadth of our training experience while preserving its essential nature. We propose to 1) add a psychiatry resident research experience in order to attract more physicians into the field, 2) more fully develop our mental health policy focus, and 3) extend and expand our coursework and capacity through the College of Public Health (COPH) located on our campus. Funding is requested for 2 Postdoctoral positions per year (2 FTE) and 4 three-month Research Residency Track fellows per year (1 FTE per year total). Efforts will be made to attract trainees who are committed to a career in mental health services research. Minority candidates will be actively sought through a number of programs and University initiatives.

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的NRSA计划将侧重于培训博士后研究员在精神卫生服务研究。拟议的计划是一个为期五年的延长目前资助的NRSA奖学金计划在中心的精神卫生保健研究，阿肯色州大学医学科学（UAMS）。博士后项目的目标是培养有成就的研究人员，准备在协作心理健康服务研究环境中领导独立资助的研究。为了支持这一目标，学员沉浸在一个多学科的指导研究，定制教学法，并补充正式和非正式的指令程序。学员将代表各种学科，如精神病学，护理，心理学，社会学，社会工作，经济学和生物统计学。产生新的调查人员建立和维持心理健康研究领域。作为全国为数不多的大型心理健康服务研究小组之一，也是为数不多的基于学术健康科学校园的研究小组之一，心理健康研究中心为医生和非医生提供了一个独特的培训机会，学习技能和知识，作为一名成功的心理健康研究调查员。拟议的计划将包括共同和专门的组成部分，以解决在以前的教育，临床经验和能力，学员带来的程序领域的相似性和差异。方案的组成部分包括指导研究活动和专门为受训人员举办的四个研讨会。学院将为学员提供个性化的学术和研究机会，以提高他们现有的经验和研究兴趣。此外，学员将接受个人指导，以制定研究提案，论文和赠款申请。这次竞争性续约的三个方面与我们5年前提交的不同，增加了我们培训经验的深度和广度，同时保留了其基本性质。我们建议1）增加精神病学居民的研究经验，以吸引更多的医生进入该领域，2）更充分地发展我们的心理健康政策重点，3）通过公共卫生学院（COPH）扩展和扩大我们的课程和能力位于我们的校园。资金要求每年2个博士后职位（2 FTE）和每年4个为期三个月的研究驻留跟踪研究员（每年共1 FTE）。将努力吸引致力于精神卫生服务研究事业的受训人员。少数民族的候选人将通过一些程序和大学的举措积极寻求。
