DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Charles F. von Gunten, MD, PhD is seeking support as an established investigator in palliative care, part of National Cancer Institute's prevention and control program. Palliative care can be summarized as the prevention and relief of suffering. As an established investigator with a track record of funded research, peer-reviewed publications and mentoring, he is now in a unique position to foster further development of the field as called for in the recent reports by the Institute of Medicine and National Cancer Policy Board. In roles as Director of the Center for Palliative Studies at San Diego Hospice & Palliative Care, a teaching and research affiliate of the University of California San Diego School of Medicine, member of the NCI-designated University of California San Diego Moores Comprehensive Cancer Center, Co-Principal of the EPEC Project, Senior Associate Editor of the Journal of Palliative Medicine and Chairman, American Board of Hospice and Palliative Medicine, the NCI is able to protect his abilities to conduct palliative care research and mentor trainees and leaders in the field. He has pursued research objectives to understand education (particularly physicians) and symptom control (particularly neuropathic pain) and as well as broad advocacy and leadership objectives to achieve his goals. Scientifically supported approaches to the prevention and relief of suffering are as important to the overall care of patients with cancer and their families as are approaches to the treatment of cancer itself. He needs protected time to continue a vital research program in the creation and dissemination of palliative care knowledge and reentering new physician scientists in the field. He is responsible for the educational and research developments in the largest department of subspecialist palliative medicine physicians in the USA. In addition, he is responsible for nurturing and developing nurse practitioners, nurses, social workers, and chaplains in a similar way. His personal research plan addresses the question "How is palliative care best taught?" This K05 will permit him to conduct educational research for resident physicians, physician fellows, nurses, social workers and chaplains. This K05 will permit him to mentor junior investigators in projects to test the ability of infusional lidocaine to relieve severe refractory pain, to understand patient, family, staff communication in terminal illness, and to test the ability of acupuncture to relieve distress in patients with terminal illness. All reentered investigators are seeking NCI funding and have the potential to become independent investigators.

描述（由申请人提供）：Charles F. von Gunten 医学博士正在寻求作为姑息治疗领域知名研究者的支持，姑息治疗是国家癌症研究所预防和控制计划的一部分。 姑息治疗可以概括为预防和减轻痛苦。 作为一名在资助研究、同行评审出版物和指导方面拥有良好记录的知名研究者，他现在处于独特的地位，可以按照医学研究所和国家癌症政策委员会最近的报告中的要求，促进该领域的进一步发展。 担任圣地亚哥临终关怀与姑息治疗中心姑息研究中心主任、加州大学圣地亚哥分校医学院的教学和研究附属机构、NCI 指定的加州大学圣地亚哥摩尔斯综合癌症中心成员、EPEC 项目联合负责人、《姑息医学杂志》高级副主编以及美国临终关怀与姑息医学委员会主席，NCI 能够 保护他进行姑息治疗研究并指导该领域的学员和领导者的能力。 他追求的研究目标是了解教育（特别是医生）和症状控制（特别是神经性疼痛），以及广泛的宣传和领导目标以实现他的目标。 科学支持的预防和减轻痛苦的方法对于癌症患者及其家人的整体护理与癌症本身的治疗方法同样重要。 他需要受保护的时间来继续一项重要的研究计划，以创造和传播姑息治疗知识，并重新进入该领域的新医师科学家。 他负责美国最大的专科姑息医学医师部门的教育和研究发展。 此外，他还负责以类似的方式培养和发展执业护士、护士、社会工作者和牧师。 他的个人研究计划解决了“如何最好地教授姑息治疗？”的问题。 K05 将使他能够为住院医生、研究员、护士、社会工作者和牧师进行教育研究。 K05 将使他能够指导初级研究人员参与一些项目，以测试输注利多卡因缓解严重顽固性疼痛的能力，了解绝症患者、家人和工作人员的沟通能力，以及测试针灸缓解绝症患者痛苦的能力。 所有重新加入的研究人员都在寻求 NCI 的资助，并有潜力成为独立研究人员。
