DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of this Research Training Program continues to be the pre-and post-doctoral training of individuals for investigative careers directed at the improved understanding of behavioral mechanisms associated with cardiovascular health, illness, risk, and the investigation of interventions and community partnerships designed to prevent or control disease and promote enhancement of cardiovascular health status. The rationale of the program uses a model of early exposure of trainees to faculty mentors and their research as a means of socialization of trainees toward their future career activities. Trainees are recruited from the relevant health professions, in particular, Medicine, Public Health, Nursing, and disciplines which include Health Education, Behavioral Sciences, Nutrition, Psychology, Sociology, Economics, Anthropology, and Public Policy. The Program is designed to educate trainees with a background in the health professions to develop more behaviorally oriented research and trainees with a background in the behavioral sciences to apply their research to cardiovascular health and illness. These complementary emphases continue to be viewed as important to building the necessary multi-disciplinary research manpower base to address cardiovascular problems relevant to the heath of the public. The faculty have been recruited to reflect this interdisciplinary base and provide appropriate role models for trainee career development. The Program has been successful and remains committed to attracting highly qualified minority trainees and placing further emphasis on cardiovascular disease and risk in minorities and women. The Program continues to be a strong collaborative one between the Schools of Medicine, Public Health, and Nursing. To date 100 postdoctoral and 58 pre-doctoral trainees have graduated with 7 current postdoctoral and 1 predoctoral trainees active. These include a mixture of individuals with MD's, PhD's, particularly in Behavioral Science and Public Health. A variety of research activities such as dietary and physical activity interventions to prevent high blood pressure; community-based cardiovascular risk reduction; and cardiovascular risk in minority populations; as well as facilities continue to be made available to trainees. This program continues to be significant for the health of the public, in its training of future investigators to understand, treat, and prevent heart and vascular diseases, and their associated risks, better. The new knowledge and its application, developed by these trainees, will improve the prevention and control of problems, such as hypertension, nationally, and in high risk underserved minority populations in particular. This program is directly relevant to the health of the public in its training of future investigators to understand, prevent and treat heart and vascular diseases and their associated risk factors better. Thus, this new knowledge, developed by these trainees, is important to addressing our number one health problem-heart disease

描述（由申请人提供）：该研究培训计划的目标仍然是对从事研究职业的个人进行博士前和博士后培训，旨在提高对与心血管健康、疾病、风险相关的行为机制的理解，以及旨在预防或控制疾病并促进增强心血管健康状况的干预措施和社区伙伴关系的调查。该计划的基本原理是利用受训者早期接触教师导师及其研究的模型，作为受训者对未来职业活动进行社会化的手段。学员来自相关健康专业，特别是医学、公共卫生、护理以及健康教育、行为科学、营养学、心理学、社会学、经济学、人类学和公共政策等学科。该计划旨在教育具有健康专业背景的学员开展更多以行为为导向的研究，并教育具有行为科学背景的学员将其研究应用于心血管健康和疾病。这些互补的重点仍然被认为对于建立必要的多学科研究人力基础以解决与公众健康相关的心血管问题非常重要。聘请教师是为了反映这种跨学科基础，并为实习生的职业发展提供适当的榜样。该计划取得了成功，并将继续致力于吸引高素质的少数族裔学员，并进一步强调少数族裔和妇女的心血管疾病和风险。该项目仍然是医学院、公共卫生学院和护理学院之间强有力的合作项目。迄今为止，已有100名博士后和58名博士前培训生毕业，其中7名博士后和1名博士前培训生在职。其中包括拥有医学博士、博士学位的个人，特别是在行为科学和公共卫生领域。各种研究活动，例如预防高血压的饮食和身体活动干预措施；以社区为基础的降低心血管风险；和少数民族人群的心血管风险；并继续向学员提供设施。该项目对未来的研究人员进行培训，以更好地了解、治疗和预防心脏和血管疾病及其相关风险，对公众的健康仍然具有重要意义。这些学员开发的新知识及其应用将改善全国范围内，特别是服务不足的高危少数群体中高血压等问题的预防和控制。该项目对未来的研究人员进行培训，以更好地了解、预防和治疗心脏和血管疾病及其相关危险因素，这与公众的健康直接相关。因此，这些学员开发的新知识对于解决我们的头号健康问题——心脏病非常重要
