DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This NCD-LIFESPAN project seeks to increase capacity in Southeast Asia, primarily in Vietnam and secondarily in Cambodia, in regards to (a) developing culturally-appropriate, research-based treatments for mental health problems; (b) conducting intervention trials of these treatments; (c) disseminating research results to favorably impact service provision. The NCD-LIFESPAN project builds on two successful ICOHRTA grants, the focus of which has been development of a child- and adolescent-focused, research-oriented PhD Clinical Sciences program at Vietnam National University (VNU). In 2009 our VNU Master's in Clinical Sciences enrolled its first cohort of 15 students, and a second cohort of 15 students in 2010. In addition to providing the curricular foundation for the PhD program, the master's program will be used as a dissemination platform and as a structure for dissemination research for the evidence-based treatment programs developed through the VNU Clinical Psychology program. The NCD-LIFESPAN Specific Aims are to (1) enhance the VNU Clinical Sciences program through: (1a) support for further development of VNU faculty in regards to research, clinical, instructional / mentoring, and administrative expertise; and (1b) development of a Subspecialty in Trauma and PTSD that was identified as of particular need in Vietnam, and Cambodia; and (2) broaden the geographical impact of our program within Vietnam, and Southeast Asia by: (2a) increasing the geographical diversity of our graduate students based within Vietnam, by providing scholarships to students who live a significant distance from the university; and (2b) collaborating with the Psychology Department at the Royal University of Phnom Penh (RUPP), Cambodia, to enhance their graduate program in Clinical Psychology and Trauma Treatment, by providing (2b1) training for RUPP faculty at VNU, (2b2) technical support around curriculum development, and (2b3) funding for small collaborative research projects. Vietnam National University would be LMIC site #1, and the Royal University of Phnom Penh would be LMIC site #2. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: The proposed project focuses on increasing research capacity around the treatment of mental health problems in Cambodia and Vietnam. Mental health has been identified in the literature as well as by our Cambodian and Vietnamese colleagues as a high priority public health area for each country. The project is therefore directl relevant to the public health in Cambodia and Vietnam.

描述（由申请人提供）：该NCD-LIFESPAN项目旨在提高东南亚的能力，主要是在越南，其次是在柬埔寨，关于（a）开发文化适当的，基于研究的精神健康问题治疗;（B）进行这些治疗的干预试验;（c）传播研究结果，以有利的 影响服务提供。NCD-LIFESPAN项目建立在两个成功的ICOHRTA赠款的基础上，其重点是在越南国立大学（VNU）开发一个以儿童和儿童为中心的，以研究为导向的临床科学博士课程。2009年，我们的VNU临床科学硕士招收了第一批15名学生，并于2010年招收了第二批15名学生。除了为博士项目提供课程基础外，硕士项目还将用作传播平台和通过万耀大学临床心理学项目开发的循证治疗项目的传播研究结构。NCD-LIFESPAN的具体目标是（1）通过以下方式加强VNU临床科学计划：（1a）支持VNU教师在研究，临床，教学/指导和管理专业知识方面的进一步发展;（1b）在越南和柬埔寨确定为特别需要的创伤和创伤后应激障碍的子专业的发展;和（2）扩大我们的计划在越南和东南亚的地理影响：（2a）增加我们的研究生在越南的地理多样性，通过提供奖学金给住在离大学很远的学生;以及（2b）与柬埔寨金边皇家大学（RUPP）心理学系合作，通过为VNU的RUPP教师提供（2b 1）培训，（2b 2）围绕课程开发的技术支持，（2b 3）资助小型合作研究项目。越南国立大学将是LMIC站点#1，金边的皇家大学将是LMIC站点#2。 公共卫生相关性：拟议项目的重点是提高柬埔寨和越南心理健康问题治疗方面的研究能力。心理健康在文献中以及我们的柬埔寨和越南同事中已被确定为每个国家的高度优先公共卫生领域。因此，该项目与柬埔寨和越南的公共卫生直接相关。
