DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Clinical decision making should be based upon the best evidence available. Most often, this evidence comes from biomedical research. Thus, it is important that medical school curriculum contain the seminal scientific literature in its content, and that it teach all medical students how to critically evaluate research. The National College of Natural Medicine (NCNM) is committed to using a science-based curriculum to train naturopathic physicians and Chinese medicine practitioners. However, the current curriculum does not reinforce critical evaluation of scientific literature throughout the curriculum. In addition, most of the faculty members at NCNM have not been formally trained in critical evaluation of research, or in the conduct of biomedical research. Hence, the main goal of this project is to increase the research training content for our faculty and students. Our program has four specific aims. The first aim is to develop a research education curriculum plan and implement it in the NCNM doctoral program's curriculum-coursework and clinical experiences. We will strengthen and formalize research and EBM skills in didactic courses, then incorporate and integrate these skills throughout the program. Students will be trained to use scientific literature in formulating patient treatment strategies. The second aim is to train faculty in research content, skills, and teaching strategies. We will develop and implement two short-courses to introduce faculty to research concepts and teaching strategies. A team of "Vanguard Faculty" will be trained to assist each faculty member in the transformation of key lectures in their course. For the third aim, we will evaluate the impact of the research education initiative. We will evaluate faculty and student's knowledge and attitudes about having research in their courses. Finally, in aim four, we will disseminate Research CAM Program (R-CAMP) and collaborate with other institutions that have CAM research education initiatives. We will open enrollment in the short-courses to other CAM practitioners. In addition, we will offer content derived from our short-courses in workshops before several conferences, on DVD, or via webinar. We will also disseminate the strategy and process we use to other CAM schools who wish to implement similar programs. From these aims, we expect that future naturopathic physicians and Chinese Medicine practitioners will have an enhanced ability to critically evaluate biomedical literature, be more equipped to participate in clinical research and facilitate the integration of CAM and conventional health care delivery into a patient centered primary care approach.

描述（由申请人提供）：临床决策应基于现有的最佳证据。大多数情况下，这些证据来自生物医学研究。因此，医学院课程的内容包含具有影响力的科学文献，并教会所有医学生如何批判性地评估研究，这一点很重要。国立自然医学学院（NCNM）致力于利用科学的课程来培训自然疗法医师和中医从业者。然而，当前的课程并没有在整个课程中强化对科学文献的批判性评价。此外，NCNM 的大多数教职人员都没有接受过研究批判性评估或生物医学研究进行方面的正式培训。因此，该项目的主要目标是增加我们教师和学生的研究培训内容。我们的计划有四个具体目标。第一个目标是制定研究教育课程计划并将其实施到 NCNM 博士课程的课程作业和临床经验中。我们将在教学课程中加强和规范研究和循证医学技能，然后将这些技能纳入和整合到整个项目中。将培训学生使用科学文献制定患者治疗策略。第二个目标是对教师进行研究内容、技能和教学策略方面的培训。我们将开发并实施两门短期课程，向教师介绍研究概念和教学策略。培养一支“先锋教师”团队，协助每位教师完成课程中的重点讲座转化。对于第三个目标，我们将评估研究教育计划的影响。我们将评估教师和学生对课程研究的知识和态度。最后，在目标四中，我们将传播研究 CAM 计划 (R-CAMP) 并与其他拥有 CAM 研究教育计划的机构合作。我们将向其他 CAM 从业者开放短期课程报名。此外，我们还将在几次会议之前的研讨会上通过 DVD 或网络研讨会提供来自短期课程的内容。我们还将向其他希望实施类似计划的 CAM 学校传播我们使用的策略和流程。基于这些目标，我们期望未来的自然疗法医师和中医从业者能够增强批判性评估生物医学文献的能力，更有能力参与临床研究，并促进将 CAM 和传统医疗保健服务整合到以患者为中心的初级保健方法中。
