项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) is a research-intensive health sciences campus. With this award, the UCSF School of Dentistry will hire three new Assistant Professors to develop research projects within an existing multi-disciplinary biomedical core center, the UCSF Center to Address Disparities in Children's Oral Health, which includes faculty from multiple departments at UCSF and other universities. Faculty will also have access to collaborative activities across campus, particularly through the UCSF Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (CTSI), the Center for Health and Community, and the Center for Health Professions. The overall goal of this Center is to conduct research to reduce oral health disparities. The specific research focus is to improve our ability to understand, prevent, and eliminate early childhood caries through prevention, early diagnosis and treatment with children and their caregivers. The new investigators will enhance our efforts from three perspectives - laboratory-based cariology research, systems-based medical sociology/health policy research, and sophisticated statistical analysis. Each person will be appointed in a School of Dentistry home department that is committed to providing an additional two years of support beyond this award's initial two years. Each also will be jointly appointed in a second department in another UCSF school, either the School of Medicine or Nursing and have multiple, senior researchers as mentors. The specific aims are: To appoint three Independent, tenure-track equivalent research intensive Assistant Professors at the UCSF School of Dentistry, one with research training in cariology, one with training in sociology of healthcare systems and health policy, and one in biostatistics. To expand existing Institutional strengths, capacity and the scientific mission of the NIH-funded UCSF Center to Address Disparities in Children's Oral Health (NIH/NIDCR U54 DE019285). To provide career development resources, Infrastructure, mentoring and a collaborative, multidisciplinary environment to foster the scientific success of the new investigators as evidenced by their research productivity. These new investigators will strengthen our ability to understand oral health disparities from both micro and macro-levels, expand our overall impact on the research field, and build research capacity. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposal has strong public health relevance. It is responsive to the NIDCR draft strategic plan, 2009-13, Goal IV: Apply rigorous, multidisciplinary research approaches to eliminate disparities in oral, dental and craniofacial health. The dental caries focus is responsive to two Healthy People 2010 Oral Health Objectives: To reduce the proportion of young children aged 2-4 years with 1) dental caries experience in their primary teeth to 11 percent; and 2) with untreated dental caries in their primary teeth to 9 percent.

描述（由申请人提供）：加州大学旧金山分校（UCSF）是一所研究密集型健康科学校园。凭借这一奖项，加州大学旧金山分校牙科学院将聘请三名新的助理教授，在现有的多学科生物医学核心中心——加州大学旧金山分校儿童口腔健康差异解决中心——内开展研究项目，该中心包括来自加州大学旧金山分校和其他大学多个部门的教员。教职员工还将有机会参与校园内的合作活动，特别是通过加州大学旧金山分校临床与转化科学研究所（CTSI）、健康与社区中心以及卫生专业中心。本中心的总体目标是开展研究，以减少口腔健康差距。具体的研究重点是通过对儿童及其照顾者的预防、早期诊断和治疗，提高我们对儿童早期龋齿的认识、预防和消除能力。新的研究人员将从三个方面加强我们的工作-基于实验室的龋齿学研究，基于系统的医学社会学/卫生政策研究和复杂的统计分析。每个人将被任命在牙科学校的家庭部门，承诺提供额外的两年支持超出这个奖项的最初两年。每个人还将被联合任命到加州大学旧金山分校另一个学院的第二个部门，要么是医学院，要么是护理学院，并有多位资深研究人员作为导师。具体目标是：在加州大学旧金山分校牙科学院任命三名独立的，具有终身教职的研究密集型助理教授，其中一名具有龋齿学研究培训，一名具有医疗保健系统和卫生政策社会学培训，一名具有生物统计学培训。扩大美国国立卫生研究院资助的UCSF儿童口腔健康差异解决中心（NIH/NIDCR U54 DE019285）的现有机构优势、能力和科学使命。提供职业发展资源，基础设施，指导和协作，多学科的环境，以促进新研究者的科学成功，证明他们的研究生产力。这些新的研究人员将加强我们从微观和宏观层面理解口腔健康差异的能力，扩大我们在研究领域的整体影响，并建立研究能力。
