Postdoctoral training in tobacco control

描述（由申请人提供）：该计划的目的是支持为期两年的博士后奖学金，这将吸引来自医学，生物学，社会，行为和政策科学等各种背景的跨学科研究的个人，以帮助建立下一代烟草控制学术领导者。这一目标将通过与卫生政策，生物统计学，烟草控制政策和烟草相关成瘾和疾病相关的跨学科课程与来自不同学科的小学和中学导师指导的研究相结合来实现。这门课程，将包括大约20%的研究员的经验，将形成一个密集的研究计划的基础，由来自不同学科的两位导师指导。研究员还将学习如何准备和审查赠款提案。将酌情鼓励它们支持第三年研究金供资的建议。研究导师将来自21名参与教师，他们在烟草控制政策制定和评估，烟草行业作为癌症和其他烟草引起的疾病的载体的研究，针对年轻人和青少年的烟草行业营销策略，二手烟的健康影响，尼古丁药理学以及个人和社区戒烟方面开展了积极的研究项目。教师来自UCSF的所有四所学校（医学，护理，药学和牙科）以及DC Berkeley School of Public Health。该课程，在背景和住在加州大学旧金山分校烟草控制研究和教育中心的研究员的兴趣的巨大变化相结合，将提供一个强大的跨学科的环境，使所有参与这一过程的人有机会学习和欣赏的人在其他学科工作所做的工作。每个研究员的计划将由研究员，他或她的导师和奖学金委员会单独开发。研究金委员会还将挑选研究员并指导他们的进展。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this program is to support a two-year postdoctoral fellowship which will attract individuals with a strong commitment to interdisciplinary research from a wide variety of backgrounds from medical, biological, social, behavioral, and policy sciences to help build the next generation of academic leaders in tobacco control. This objective will be met through a combination of interdisciplinary coursework related to health policy, biostatistics, tobacco control policy and tobacco-related addiction and disease together with research directed by a primary and secondary mentor from different disciplines. This coursework, which will comprise approximately 20% of the fellows' experience, will form the foundation for an intensive research program directed by two mentors from different disciplines. Fellows will also be taught how to prepare and review grant proposals. When appropriate, they will be encouraged to support proposals for a third year of fellowship funding. Research mentors will be drawn from 21 participating faculty members with active research programs in tobacco control policy development and evaulation, studies of the tobacco industry as a vector for cancer and other tobacco-induced diseases, tobacco industry marketing strategies directed at young adults and adolescents, heath effects of secondhand smoke, nicotine pharmacology, and individual and community-based smoking cessation. The faculty are drawn from all four schools at UCSF (Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, and Dentistry) as well as the DC Berkeley School of Public Health. The coursework, combined with the great variety in backgrounds and interest of fellows housed in the UCSF Center for Tobacco Control Research and Education, will provide a strong interdisciplinary environment that gives all people involved in the process an opportunity to learn from and appreciate the work done by people working in other disciplines. Each fellow's program will be individually developed by the fellow, his or her mentors, and the Fellowship Committee. The Fellowship Committee will also select fellows and mentor their progress.
