Patient-Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) Scholars Program

描述（由申请人提供）：匹兹堡大学（皮特）（医学，公共卫生，护理，药学，牙科医学和健康与康复科学）的健康科学（SHS）的六个学院提议推出一项为期五年的计划，以培养未来的研究人员和领导者以患者为中心的成果研究（PCOR）。该计划将被称为PCOR学者计划，具有以下总体目标：1）制定一个广泛解决医疗保健问题的PCOR学者计划，2）在比较有效性研究方法（CER）和PCOR的方法，理论和概念方面培养优秀的候选人。3)使学者们沉浸在变革和组织振兴方案的多学科中，从研究的概念化到成果的传播和实施，与利益攸关方群体密切合作。4)提供优秀的指导，使研究项目的快速启动，导致高生产力，并成功过渡到独立的学者。5)通过明确界定的政策和程序，严格监测和指导每位学者的职业发展，以确保在成为CER和变革和组织振兴方案的未来领导者方面取得高度成功。通过积极的PCOR K12咨询委员会对学者和整个计划进行持续详细的评估，我们将确保学者不断朝着他们的目标取得良好的进展，并确保该计划促进学者在职业发展的各个方面取得成功。利用完善的临床研究教育研究所作为PCOR学者计划和比较有效资源中心基础设施的机构所在地，学者将通过ICRE学位授予计划的现有CER跟踪学习研究方法。项目总监Wishwa Kapoor，MD，MPH和Sally Morton博士将设计课程和培训，以满足每个学者的具体需求。这种培训将辅之以职业发展和专业精神方面的研讨会和培训（例如，进行科学报告，提高写作效率，谈判，晋升和终身职位的要求，领导能力，平衡生活和工作）以及研究。每位学者将设计一个使用CER开展变革和组织振兴方案的研究项目。利益相关者的参与将是每个项目的基本要素，关于如何让利益相关者参与并随着时间的推移保持关系的说明将包括在学者的正式课程中。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The six Schools of the Health Sciences (SHS) at the University of Pittsburgh (Pitt) (Medicine, Public Health, Nursing, Pharmacy, Dental Medicine, and Health and Rehabilitation Sciences) propose to launch a five year, program to develop future investigators and leaders in patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR). This program will be called the PCOR Scholars Program with the following overarching aims: 1) To develop a PCOR Scholars Program that addresses health care issues broadly, 2) To train outstanding candidates in methods, theories, and concepts in comparative effectiveness research methods (CER) and PCOR. 3) To immerse Scholars in multidisciplinary PCOR, working closely with stakeholder groups from conceptualization of research to dissemination and implementation of results. 4) To provide outstanding mentoring which allows for rapid startup of research projects, leads to high productivity, and the successful transition of Scholars to independence. 5) To rigorously monitor and guide the career development of each Scholar through well-defined policies and processes to ensure a high degree of success in becoming future leaders in CER and PCOR. Through ongoing detailed evaluation of the Scholars and the entire program by an active PCOR K12 Advisory Board, we will assure that Scholars are continuously making excellent progress toward all their goals and that the Program promotes the success of the Scholars in every aspect of career development. Using the well-established Institute for Clinical Research Education as the institutional home for the PCOR Scholar's program and the Comparative Effective Resource Center's infrastructure, the Scholars will learn research methodology through existing CER Track of ICRE's degree granting programs. Program Directors, Wishwa Kapoor, MD, MPH and Sally Morton, PhD, will design program coursework and training to fit each Scholar's specific needs. This training will be complemented by seminars and training in career development and professionalism (e.g., making scientific presentations, increasing writing productivity, negotiating, requirements for promotion and tenure, leadership, balancing life and work) as well as research. Each Scholar will design a research project that uses CER to conduct PCOR. Stakeholder involvement will be an essential element of each project, and instructions on how to involve stakeholders and maintain relationships over time will be included in the Scholar's formal coursework.
