UW Patient-Centered Outcomes Research Career Development Program (K12)

描述(由申请人提供)：医学知识和技术的爆炸性增长与低效、有时甚至无效的医疗保健服务形成了鲜明对比。将科学进步转化为更好的健康需要在几个步骤上进行更多和更好的研究，从工作台到医生办公室，再到卫生系统和社区。因此，我们建议在华盛顿大学为博士后和初级教师学者提供多学科K12以患者为中心的结果研究(PCOR)培训计划。我们的目标是培养研究人员，他们将在PCOR的特定领域发展深度，并具有全面的以患者为中心的结果研究的广度知识；为他们提供进行高质量综合研究的方法知识和实践技能；并创造一个给他们注入兴奋的环境，并培养他们早期的职业发展。该计划将涉及来自华盛顿大学医学院、公共卫生、药房和护理学院的教师，以及弗雷德·哈钦森癌症研究中心、团体健康研究所和普吉特湾退伍军人管理局健康服务研究和发展单位等知名附属项目的教师。博士后研究员和初级教师学者将从所有卫生及相关专业和其他学科招聘。多学科核心课程将使所有学者接触到与变革和组织振兴方案有关的学科的理论和方法，选修课将允许在一个重点领域进行深入研究。密集指导的研究经验将是该计划的核心，华盛顿大学及其转化健康科学研究所提供了一系列非凡的研究核心、中心和导师来支持这项工作。我们将不断评估项目结果，如果我们成功，我们的毕业生将成为研究领导者，准备使用最高道德标准和利用新的技术和信息学工具进行多学科比较有效性研究。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The explosion of medical knowledge and technology contrasts with inefficient and sometimes ineffective health care delivery. Translating scientific advances into better health requires more and better research at several steps leading from bench to practitioner's office and to health systems and communities. We therefore propose a Multidisciplinary K12 Patient- Centered Outcomes Research (PCOR) Training Program at the University of Washington for post-doctoral and entry-level faculty Scholars. Our aims are to train investigators who will develop depth in a specific area of PCOR, but also breadth of knowledge about the full spectrum of patient-centered outcomes research; provide them with methodological knowledge and practical skills for conducting high quality integrative research; and create an environment that infuses them with excitement, and nurtures their early career development. The program will involve faculty from the UW Schools of Medicine, Public Health, Pharmacy, and Nursing, as well as prominent affiliated programs such as the Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, Group Health Research Institute and the Puget Sound Veterans Administration Health Services Research and Development unit. Post-doctoral fellows and entry-level faculty Scholars will be recruited from all health and related professions and other disciplines. A multidisciplinary core curriculum will expose all Scholars to the theories and methods of disciplines relevant to PCOR, and elective courses will allow depth of study in a focused area. Intensively mentored research experience will be the centerpiece of the program, and the UW and its Institute for Translational Health Sciences offers an extraordinary range of research cores, centers, and mentors to support this work. We will continuously evaluate program results, and if we are successful, our graduates will become research leaders prepared to conduct multidisciplinary comparative effectiveness research using the highest ethical standards and capitalizing on new technologic and informatics tools.
