DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is a revision of a competing renewal for a T32 post-doctoral training program at Stanford University under the direction of Dr. Allan L. Reiss: T32MH19908, Research Training for Child Psychiatry and Development. The overarching aim of this program is to provide training experiences that will permit the next generation of researchers to design and carry out sophisticated, multi-level, cross-disciplinary research focused on the pressing and unique problems facing child psychiatry. These goals will be accomplished through mentoring from a distinguished and dedicated faculty, trainee-tailored coursework and research experience, and an emphasis on facilitating career development (e.g., as reflected by peer-reviewed publications and grants). Over the 17-year history of this program, the Program Director and affiliated faculty have had considerable success in training productive clinical researchers. Since the last renewal of the program, we have attracted a large number of outstanding applicants, filled all funded slots, retained postdoctoral fellows for the duration of their training periods, and successfully prepared them for careers as independent investigators. Of those trainees completing the T32 program over the past 10 years, 70% assumed research positions in academia or industry and 9% chose to pursue additional post-doctoral research training. Past trainees who pursued research careers are engaged in translational research (30%) or patient- oriented research (35%); the remainder are addressing health service, epidemiological, or basic research questions. To date, more than one-third of these former trainees have received at least one federally funded research grant as a Principal Investigator. Fifty-six percent report that they mentor others. The average scientific publication rate for graduates of our program is 2.0 articles per year. Currently enrolled trainees demonstrate a similar productive course of journal publications and external research funding. In the next grant period, we will further improve upon this highly successful T32 program by: (1) augmenting administrative oversight with the inclusion of a Steering Committee and Internal and External Advisory boards, (2) instituting a significantly enhanced evaluation program to determine program quality and effectiveness and, (3) introducing new measures to enhance the recruitment of underrepresented minorities and candidates with disabilities. Our program aims are to recruit talented and diverse MD, PhD, and MD/PhD postdoctoral fellows, and train them to approach critical research issues in child psychiatry and development from a multidisciplinary, multi-level scientific perspective.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请是斯坦福大学在Allan L. Reiss博士指导下的T32博士后培训计划的竞争性更新修订：T32MH19908，儿童精神病学和发展研究培训。该项目的总体目标是提供培训经验，使下一代研究人员能够设计和开展复杂的、多层次的、跨学科的研究，重点关注儿童精神病学面临的紧迫和独特的问题。这些目标将通过杰出和敬业的教师的指导、为学员量身定制的课程和研究经验，以及强调促进职业发展（例如，通过同行评审的出版物和资助）来实现。在该项目17年的历史中，项目主任和附属教师在培养富有成效的临床研究人员方面取得了相当大的成功。自上次项目更新以来，我们吸引了大量优秀申请者，填补了所有资助名额，并在其培训期间保留了博士后，并成功地为他们成为独立研究者做好了准备。在过去10年完成T32项目的学员中，70%的人在学术界或工业界担任研究职位，9%的人选择继续进行博士后研究培训。过去从事研究工作的学员从事转化研究（30%）或以病人为导向的研究（35%）；其余的是关于卫生服务、流行病学或基础研究的问题。到目前为止，超过三分之一的这些前学员已经获得了至少一项联邦资助的研究经费作为首席研究员。56%的人表示他们会指导他人。我们项目毕业生的平均科学发表率为每年2.0篇文章。目前招收的学员在期刊出版和外部研究经费方面也表现出类似的富有成效的过程。在下一个拨款期内，我们将进一步改进这一非常成功的T32项目，包括：(1)加强行政监督，包括指导委员会和内部和外部咨询委员会；(2)建立一个显著增强的评估项目，以确定项目的质量和有效性；(3)引入新措施，以加强对代表性不足的少数民族和残疾候选人的招聘。我们的目标是招募优秀的、多元化的医学博士和博士后，培养他们从多学科、多层次的科学角度研究儿童精神病学和发展的关键研究问题。
