Research Training and Education Core (Core D)

我们在AHA烟草监管和成瘾中心（A-TRAC）的多学科教育培训核心的总体目标是培养下一代烟草相关心血管医学和政策的基础，临床和翻译学术研究人员，并交叉培训烟草监管科学的研究人员。调查人员将获得科学调查和公共卫生方面的专业知识，以便向FDA烟草产品中心提供相关调查结果，以规范烟草产品的制造，分销和营销。我们将利用我们机构（波士顿大学- BU，埃默里大学，约翰霍普金斯大学- JHU，纽约大学- NYU，路易斯维尔大学- UofL，密西西比大学医学中心- UMMC），并利用美国心脏协会（AHA）附属机构的研究和培训计划的广泛组合。我们的教育和培训核心将侧重于职业发展和研究不同烟草使用对心血管疾病的不利影响，重点关注以下主题： 基础、临床和转化心血管科学。我们将与其他烟草监管科学中心（TCORS）合作，为TCORS网络P50中心内的学员/早期职业教师制定严格，创新的多机构职业和研究发展计划。

The overall goal of our Multidisciplinary Educational Training Core in the AHA-Tobacco Regulation and Addiction Center (A-TRAC) is to develop the next generation of basic, clinical, and translational academic investigators in tobacco-related cardiovascular medicine and policy and to cross-train investigators in tobacco regulatory science. Investigators will gain expertise in both scientific investigation and public health to inform the FDA Center for Tobacco Products with relevant findings for regulation of the manufacture, distribution and marketing of tobacco products. We will leverage the outstanding expertise, facilities, infrastructure, and research experience at our institutions (Boston University - BU, Emory University, Johns Hopkins University - JHU, New York University - NYU, University of Louisville - UofL, University of Mississippi Medical Center - UMMC) and utilize the broad portfolio of American Heart Association (AHA)-affiliated institutions' research and training programs. Our Education and Training core will focus on career development and research of the adverse consequences of cardiovascular disease from diverse tobacco uses with a strong thematic focus on fundamental, clinical and translational cardiovascular science. We will work with the other Tobacco Centers of Regulator Science (TCORS) to develop a rigorous, innovative multi-institutional career and research development programs for trainees/early career faculty within P50 Centers of the TCORS network.
