DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The CAM Research Training in Neuroscience and Stress T32 program will continue to utilize ongoing cross- institutional collaborations to provide a multidisciplinary setting for training both basic and clinical CAM researchers. Oregon Health & Science University formally houses the training grant and most of the faculty, but some faculty have primary appointments at the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University, the National College of Natural Medicine, and Western States Chiropractic College. The CAM research training program will build upon other NIH funded educational programs located at Oregon Health & Science University and has access to many excellent core resources including, most importantly, the Oregon Clinical and Translational Research Institute. The positions funded will be two pre-doctoral positions per year in the Department of Behavioral Neuroscience at OHSU and six positions per year for post-doctoral fellows. The post-doctoral positions will be open to people recently obtaining a clinical doctorate degree or a PhD, targeting approximately equal numbers of clinical and basic science researchers. The mentors include many established researchers who have done funded research in areas of CAM along with neuroscience or stress. There are additionally some less well-established CAM researchers and well-established non-CAM researchers who will be part of the program. To ensure adequate mentorship, those trainees wanting to do research with these faculty will be assigned dual mentors to ensure high quality research in a CAM-related project. This training program will continue the tradition of cooperativity amongst the CAM and neuroscience community in Oregon and at OHSU that has led to strong research and educational programs and that fosters collaborations across departments, schools and institutions. The major activities of the program include coursework, a focused journal club and in depth research training with mentors' laboratories. Trainees will learn scientific writing, specific research methodologies individualized for each, and have guidance on their career planning. In addition, trainees coming from this program will have the ability to interact with those who do CAM research in neuroscience or stress, be it at the cellular, whole animal, or human level of analysis, and to understand the scientific literature from all of these areas. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This institutional training grant will provide stipends for pre- and post-doctoral trainees wishing to pursue a career in research to better understand the mechanisms and utility of complementary medicines for those with disorders related to dysfunction of the nervous system or to stress. The trainees will learn from formal classroom settings, monthly journal clubs, and from working closely with their successful primary and co- mentors.

描述（由申请人提供）：神经科学和压力CAM研究培训T32项目将继续利用正在进行的跨机构合作，为培训基础和临床CAM研究人员提供多学科环境。俄勒冈健康与科学大学正式提供培训经费和大部分教员，但一些教员在俄勒冈州立大学的莱纳斯鲍林研究所、国家自然医学学院和西部州脊医学院担任主要职务。CAM研究培训计划将建立在俄勒冈健康与科学大学的其他NIH资助的教育计划的基础上，并可获得许多优秀的核心资源，包括最重要的是俄勒冈临床和转化研究所。资助的职位将是OHSU行为神经科学部门每年两个博士前职位和博士后研究员每年六个职位。博士后职位将向近期获得临床博士学位或博士学位的人员开放，目标是临床和基础科学研究人员的数量大致相等。导师包括许多知名的研究人员，他们在CAM以及神经科学或压力领域做过资助研究。此外，还有一些不太成熟的CAM研究人员和成熟的非CAM研究人员将成为该计划的一部分。为了确保充分的指导，那些希望与这些教师一起做研究的学员将被分配双重导师，以确保在cam相关项目中进行高质量的研究。这个培训项目将延续俄勒冈州和OHSU的CAM和神经科学社区之间的合作传统，这种合作已经导致了强大的研究和教育项目，并促进了部门，学校和机构之间的合作。该计划的主要活动包括课程作业、重点期刊俱乐部和导师实验室的深入研究培训。学员将学习科学写作、个性化的具体研究方法，并在职业规划方面得到指导。此外，来自该项目的学员将有能力与那些在神经科学或压力方面进行CAM研究的人进行互动，无论是在细胞，整个动物还是人类的分析水平上，并了解所有这些领域的科学文献。
