DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Department of Biostatistics and the Department of Psychiatry and Behavior Sciences at the University of Washington proposes a research training program in mental health biostatistics that will support five predoctoral students. The training program will be structured in such a way that trainees will receive (1) sound training in the foundations of biostatistical theory and applications, (2) sound training in mental health services research and neurobiologic research through formal courses, mental health projects, seminars, journal clubs, and interactions with mental health trainees from other disciplines. The program will be centered in the Department of Biostatistics in the School of Public Health. The academic component of the training program will include the foundations of biostatistical theory and applications and course work in the neurobiologic, epidemiology, health services of mental health. Most of formal biostatistical courses to be taken by trainees will be taught by faculty members in the Departments of Biostatistics and Statistics. New courses on methodological issues in mental health research will be supplemented to the existing curriculum. The trainees will also attend regular series of weekly biostatistical seminars and weekly mental health works- in-progress seminars. The research component of the training program will emphasize collaboration in ongoing biostatistical methodology research and significant involvement in one of more mental health research projects. The mental health research projects will be identified from ongoing clinical studies in mental health as well as databases from completed mental health studies at University of Washington, Group Health Cooperative of Puget Sound, and U.S. Department of Veterans Affairs Puget Sound Health Care System. The vast majority of preceptors for this training grant will be from the Departments of Biostatistics and Psychiatry and Behavior Sciences at the University of Washington, and others will be from the Departments of Psychology, Health Services, Epidemiology, and Medicine at the University of Washington as well as the Center for Health Studies of Group Health Cooperative. Preceptors will help the trainees gain the knowledge and skills in biostatistics and mental health necessary to have a successful biostatistical research career in mental health. Each trainee will be one biostatistical preceptor and one clinical preceptor.

描述(由申请人提供)：华盛顿大学生物统计学系和精神病学和行为科学系提出了一个心理健康生物统计学研究培训计划，将支持五名博士前学生。培训计划的结构将使受训者接受(1)生物统计学理论和应用基础的健全培训，(2)通过正规课程、精神健康项目、研讨会、期刊俱乐部以及与其他学科的精神健康受训者的互动，接受健全的精神卫生服务研究和神经生物学研究。该计划将以公共卫生学院生物统计系为中心。培训计划的学术部分将包括生物统计学理论和应用的基础，以及神经生物学、流行病学、心理健康健康服务方面的课程工作。学员将参加的大部分正式生物统计学课程将由生物统计和统计系的教员授课。关于精神健康研究方法问题的新课程将补充到现有课程中。学员亦会定期参加每周一次的生物统计学研讨会和每周一次的精神健康工作进行中研讨会。培训计划的研究部分将强调在正在进行的生物统计学方法学研究中的合作，以及对更多精神健康研究项目之一的重大参与。心理健康研究项目将从正在进行的心理健康临床研究以及华盛顿大学、普吉特湾团体健康合作社和美国退伍军人事务部普吉特湾医疗保健系统已完成的精神健康研究数据库中确定。这笔培训补助金的绝大多数教官将来自华盛顿大学生物统计学、精神病学和行为科学系，其他人将来自华盛顿大学心理学、卫生服务、流行病学和医学系以及团体健康合作社的健康研究中心。导师将帮助受训者获得生物统计学和心理健康方面的知识和技能，以便在心理健康领域取得成功的生物统计学研究生涯。每名学员将担任一名生物统计学导师和一名临床导师。
