DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The aim of our program is to train post-doctoral biomedical, behavioral, health care and other public health scientists to do research on treatment for alcohol abuse and alcoholism. An overarching goal is to enhance the critical scientific reasoning skills needed for our trainees to advance treatment research in alcohol abuse. From our perspective such research will benefit from interventions guided by sophisticated and fully developed theory using a multidisciplinary framework that includes the biological, psychological, social and cultural context in which interventions occur. While other institutional training programs may address treatment/early intervention research, this is the primary mission for this post-doctoral program. Distinctive features of our training program are: that it is interdisciplinary; that it embraces no single ideology or theory concerning the nature of dysfunctions related to alcohol or drug abuse; that it provides training at each level of intervention research; that it views prevention, early intervention and treatment along a continuum; and that it provides trainees with highly individualized opportunities to contribute to the knowledge base of alcohol/drug-related dysfunction and what to do about it. The training program for fellows is typically two years but on occasion we extend this training period for three years. The program accepts on average four new fellows per year. The training experience is structured to provide individualized research experience and training, complemented by a common academic curriculum to which 20% of fellows' training time is allocated. Four distinct areas are covered in the curriculum: (1) statistics/research methodology; (2) grantsmanship; (3) ethical issues in research; and (4) a two-year series of alcohol-specific seminars. The fellow's individual research training experience emerges from a plan developed by the fellow and agreed to by his/her mentors. The program has a primary emphasis on training in clinical trials with a secondary emphasis on the translation of clinical research into services research. The recent addition of neurobiology and behavioral genetics didactic and research experiences expands our focus of translational research from basic to clinical research in this upcoming cycle.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们的计划的目的是培养博士后生物医学，行为，卫生保健和其他公共卫生科学家做治疗酒精滥用和酒精中毒的研究。一个总体目标是提高我们的学员所需的关键科学推理技能，以推进酒精滥用的治疗研究。从我们的角度来看，这样的研究将受益于先进和充分发展的理论指导下的干预措施，使用多学科框架，包括生物，心理，社会和文化背景下发生的干预措施。虽然其他机构的培训计划可能会解决治疗/早期干预研究，这是这个博士后计划的主要使命。我们的培训方案的显著特点是：它是跨学科的;它不包含任何单一的意识形态或理论，涉及与酒精或药物滥用有关的功能障碍的性质;它在干预研究的每一个层面提供培训;它认为预防、早期干预和治疗沿着一个连续体;它为受训者提供了高度个性化的机会，为酒精/毒品知识库作出贡献，研究员的培训计划通常为两年，但有时我们会将培训期延长至三年。该计划平均每年接受四名新研究员。培训经验的结构是为了提供个性化的研究经验和培训，辅之以共同的学术课程，其中20%的研究员的培训时间分配。课程包括四个不同的领域：（1）统计/研究方法;（2）研究;（3）研究中的道德问题;（4）为期两年的酒精专题研讨会系列。研究员的个人研究培训经验来自研究员制定并经其导师同意的计划。该计划主要侧重于临床试验培训，次要侧重于临床研究转化为服务研究。最近增加的神经生物学和行为遗传学的教学和研究经验，扩大了我们的重点转化研究从基础到临床研究在这个即将到来的周期。
