Training Program

有相关的培训和职业发展经验 莫尔豪斯医学院/塔斯基吉大学/UAB综合癌症中心合作伙伴关系通过NCI赞助的这一合作伙伴关系的培训部分，我们已经培训了17名初级教师和博士后以及85名研究生。该合作伙伴关系提供以下培训和职业发展活动：夏季癌症研究培训计划。这个为期8周的项目促进了癌症研究领域的研究生培训和职业发展。通过参加研讨会、工作坊和小型课程，研究人员和学生提高他们在癌症和癌症研究方面的知识、科学技术和专业知识以及生物伦理知识和技能。该培训计划包括三个组成部分： 课程作业--三个机构各有一门课程，由该机构的教员授课：密歇根大学癌症教育、MSM授课、理工大学研究中的生物伦理学； ？实践/实地培训--学生与导师联系在一起，从事与癌症有关的具体项目； 研讨会--学生参加为期两天的具有重要生物伦理内容的暑期学院，并在各自的机构参加研讨会。 夏令营。为研究生、博士后、初级教师和研究人员提供机会，以获得生物伦理学和癌症研究方面的知识，发展和应用分析技能，并为未来的研究合作播种种子。每年约有80名参与者参加暑期研究所的许多活动，包括互动生物伦理学讲习班、计算机数据库搜索实践培训、全体会议和小组会议，以及与调查人员和学生一起工作的海报会议 参加伙伴关系赞助的培训计划。 UAB癌症预防和控制培训计划(CPCTP)。NCI自1988年以来一直资助UAB的CPCTP。包括医科学生和公共卫生研究生在内的240多名暑期实习生已经完成了这个为期8周的癌症研究学期。少数民族占博士后的25%，博士后的45%，占所有实习生的29%。 预防心血管疾病差异深南伙伴关系/阿拉巴马州合作 心血管平等(ACCE)。这笔NHLBI赠款的总体目标是通过在预防方面的公平来减少心血管差异，方法是(1)开展心血管预防研究以减少差异，以及(2)培训研究人员和临床医生获取和传播心血管知识和研究技能。该项目是UAB，Cooper Green Mercy的合作 医院(阿拉巴马州唯一一家提供急性综合医院护理的县级安全网社区医院)和塔斯基吉大学。通过这笔赠款，我们已经培训了26名初级教师和博士后。 深南少数民族老龄化研究资源中心(RCMAR)。深南RCMAR调查员开发核心的目标是通过一个专注于少数族裔老龄化和健康差距研究的正式培训计划，在不同领域的调查人员中建立研究能力。该核心旨在支持塔斯基吉大学莫尔豪斯医学院(MSM)的指导和研究 (Tu)、阿拉巴马大学(UA)和阿拉巴马大学伯明翰分校(UAB)。核心是整个深南RCMAR的关键组成部分，重点关注在老年非裔美国人中特别普遍的健康状况，并在非裔美国人和白人之间表现出健康差异。通过这笔赠款，我们已经培训了8名初级教师和博士后。

RELEVANT EXPERIENCE IN TRAINING AND CAREER DEVELOPMENT Morehouse School of Medicine/Tuskegee University/UAB Comprehensive Cancer Center Partnership Through the training component of this NCI-sponsored partnership, we have trained 17 junior faculty and postdocs and 85 graduate students. The partnership offers the following training and career development activities: Summer Cancer Research Training Program. This 8-week program facilitates graduate student training and career development in cancer research. Through participation in seminars, workshops, and mini-courses, research faculty and students enhance their knowledge, scientific techniques and expertise, and bioethics knowledge and skills in cancer and cancer research. The training program includes three components: ¿ Coursework - one course at each of the three institutions, taught by faculty of that institution: Cancer Education at UAB, Grantwriting at MSM, Bioethics in Research at TU; ¿ Practical/Field Training - Students are linked with mentors to work on specific cancer-related projects; ¿ Seminars - Students attend a two-day Summer Institute with a significant bioethical component, as well as seminars at their respective institutions. Summer Institute. Provides an opportunity for graduate students, post-docs, junior faculty, and investigators to gain knowledge in bioethics and cancer research, develop and apply analytical skills, and plant seeds for future research collaborations. About 80 participants each year engage in the Summer Institute's many activities, including interactive bioethics workshops, hands-on training in searching computerized databases, plenary and small-group sessions, and a poster session with work of investigators and students participating in the Partnership-sponsored training program. UAB Cancer Prevention and Control Training Program (CPCTP). NCI has funded UAB's CPCTP continuously since 1988. More than 240 summer interns, including medical students and public health graduate students, have completed this 8-week term in cancer research. Minorities have accounted for 25% of pre-doctoral, 45% of post-doctoral, and 29% of all trainees. Deep South Partnership for Prevention of CVD Disparities/Alabama Collaboration for Cardiovascular Equality (ACCE). The overall goal ofthis NHLBI grant is the reduction of disparities in cardiovascular disparities through equity in prevention by (1) performing research in cardiovascular prevention to reduce disparities, and (2) training researchers and clinicians in the acquisition and dissemination of cardiovascular knowledge and research skills. The project is collaboration of UAB, Cooper Green Mercy Hospital (Alabama's only county-owned safety-net community hospital offering acute general hospital care) and Tuskegee University. Through this grant we have trained 26 junior faculty and post-docs. Deep South Resource Center for Minority Aging Research (RCMAR). The goal ofthe Deep South RCMAR Investigator Development Core is to build research capacity among investigators from different fields through a formal training program focusing on minority aging and health disparities research. This Core is designed to support mentoring and research at Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM), Tuskegee University (TU), the University of Alabama (UA), and the University of Alabama at Birmingham (UAB). The Core is a key component ofthe overall Deep South RCMAR, focusing on health conditions that are particulariy prevalent among older African Americans and for which health disparities have been demonstrated between African Americans and whites. Through this grant we have trained 8 junior faculty and post-docs.
