DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a competing renewal application for a NIDA Mentored Clinical Scientists Development Program Award in Drug Abuse and Addiction (K12; PAR-07-346). The applicant Institution is the American Academy of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry (AACAP) under the leadership of Dr. Paula Riggs (Program Director/Principal Investigator). The majority of psychiatric and substance use disorders (SUD) begin during childhood or adolescence. Although the co-occurrence of psychiatric and substance use disorders is extremely common, the Institute of Medicine (2003) has identified a critical shortage of child and adolescent psychiatrists with dual training in developmental psychopathology and addiction. This shortage has contributed to broad research gaps and a lack of empirically-supported prevention and treatment. To address these gaps and the aims of this Initiative, we propose to support the career development of six child and adolescent psychiatrists who are committed to research independence in clinically relevant areas of drug abuse and addiction. In order to accomplish this aim, it will be necessary to expand the network of senior investigators and addiction research centers and training opportunities for young investigators, which is the second aim of the Initiative. During two previous funding periods from 1998-2004 (Leventhal.Pl) and 2005-2009 (Riggs, PI), the AACAP Physician Scientist Program in Substance Abuse (K12) has significantly increased the number of child and adolescent psychiatrists with addiction research careers and expanded the network of mentors and addiction research training centers by partnering with NIDA's Clinical Trials Network as a training platform for the AACAP K12. The commitment, environment and resources of the AACAP make it an ideal institutional "home" for the K12. With more than 90% of the child and adolescent psychiatrists in the country as members, the AACAP is well-positioned to facilitate the speed at which research is translated into practice. If funded, we propose to continue building on the success of our two previous AACAP K12 Awards to address the aims of this NIDA Initiative. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Increasing the number of child and adolescent psychiatrists with dual training in mental health and addiction research will provide them with the skills necessary to develop basic research advances in prevention and treatment and improve patient care.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是NIDA指导临床科学家药物滥用和成瘾发展计划奖（K12; PAR-07-346）的竞争性续期申请。申请机构是美国儿童和青少年精神病学学会（AACAP），由Paula Riggs博士（项目主任/首席研究员）领导。大多数精神和物质使用障碍（SUD）开始于儿童或青少年时期。虽然精神疾病和药物使用障碍的共同发生极为普遍，但医学研究所（2003年）发现，在发育精神病理学和成瘾方面接受过双重培训的儿童和青少年精神病学家严重短缺。这种短缺造成了广泛的研究差距和缺乏经验支持的预防和治疗。为了解决这些差距和该倡议的目标，我们建议支持六名儿童和青少年精神病学家的职业发展，他们致力于在药物滥用和成瘾的临床相关领域进行独立研究。为了实现这一目标，有必要扩大高级研究人员和成瘾研究中心的网络，并为年轻研究人员提供培训机会，这是该倡议的第二个目标。在1998-2004年（Leventhal.Pl）和2005-2009年（Riggs， PI）的前两个资助期间，AACAP药物滥用医师科学家计划（K12）显著增加了从事成瘾研究职业的儿童和青少年精神病学家的数量，并通过与NIDA的临床试验网络合作，扩大了导师网络和成瘾研究培训中心，作为AACAP K12的培训平台。AACAP的承诺、环境和资源使其成为K12理想的机构“家”。美国90%以上的儿童和青少年精神科医生都是AACAP的成员，因此AACAP在加快研究成果转化为实践方面处于有利地位。如果获得资助，我们建议在前两个AACAP K12奖项的成功基础上继续努力，以实现这一NIDA倡议的目标。与公共卫生的关系：增加在心理健康和成瘾研究方面受过双重培训的儿童和青少年精神病医生的人数，将使他们具备必要的技能，在预防和治疗方面取得基础研究进展，并改善病人护理。
