DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): For more than a quarter-century, the University of North Carolina (UNC) Injury Prevention Research Center (IPRC) has transformed and advanced the field of injury control. At the start of our second quarter- century, IPRC is positioned to continue to be a world leader in collaborative efforts to reduce the incidence and consequences of injury and violence. Our Mission of building the field of injury and violence prevention and control is implemented in our Vision of collaborative evidence-based action in local, state, national, and global communities. The theme for the 5-year cycle proposed in this application is "Preventing Injury and Violence by Connecting Interdisciplinary Research to Programs, Policy and Practice". IPRC has three Cores, each with its own Aim. The Aim of the Administration & Leadership Core is to "Foster and Sustain Innovative Interdisciplinary Research". The Aim of the Outreach & Translation Core is to "Translate Research Findings into Programs, Policies, and Practice". The Aim of the Training & Education Core is to "Train the Next Generation of Injury Researchers and Practitioners". IPRC research activities are focused on six program areas: Motor Vehicle-related Injury, Violence Against Children & Youth, Prescription Drug Overdose, Traumatic Brain Injuries, Intimate Partner Violence, and Falls in Older Adults. The four research projects proposed in this application address four of these six areas. Project 1 is a Falls Prevention project entitled "There is No BEAUTY in Falling (Bringing Education and Understanding to You)". It addresses falls prevention using hair stylists to deliver falls prevention messaging. Project 2 is a Traumatic Brain Injury project entitled "Head Impact Biomechanics as a Behavior Modification Tool to Reduce Mild Traumatic Brain Injury Risk." It examines a behavioral intervention that uses advanced helmet technology to help youth football athletes develop safer tackling techniques. Project 3 is Motor Vehicle-related Injury project entitled "Driver Licensing Policies and Young People in NC: Unintended Consequences on Racial/Ethnic Minority Populations". It quantifies the effect of graduated driver licensing in minority and economically underserved communities using road traffic crash data and driver licensing data. Project 4 is a Prescription Drug Overdose project entitled "Evaluation of the Proactive Reporting Provision of North Carolina's Prescription Drug Monitoring Program". It studies the effect of introducing proactive reporting into the state's prescription drug monitoring program using data from the monitoring program database. In addition to these research projects, the outreach, translation, and training initiatives proposed in this application are designed to facilitate workforce development and policy change. IPRC has developed innovative techniques for translating scientific research into tangible changes in policies and practice. Our enhanced capacity for research translation is due in part to our significant staff expertise in this area and in part to ur long-standing history of active collaboration with our state's Injury and Violence Prevention Branch in the NC Dept. of Health & Human Services.

描述（由申请人提供）： 四分之一个多世纪以来，北卡罗来纳州大学伤害预防研究中心（IPRC）已经改变和推进了伤害控制领域。在我们的第二个季度开始-世纪，IPRC的定位是继续是一个世界领导者的合作努力，以减少伤害和暴力的发生率和后果。我们建立伤害和暴力预防和控制领域的使命是在我们在地方，州，国家和全球社区的协作循证行动的愿景中实施的。本申请中提出的5年周期的主题是“通过将跨学科研究与方案，政策和实践相结合来预防伤害和暴力”。IPRC有三个核心，每个核心都有自己的目标。管理与领导核心的目标是“促进和维持创新的跨学科研究”。外联和翻译核心的目标是“将研究成果转化为计划，政策和实践”。培训和教育核心的目的是“培养下一代伤害研究人员和从业人员”。IPRC的研究活动集中在六个项目领域：机动车相关伤害，暴力侵害儿童和青少年，处方药过量，创伤性脑损伤，亲密伴侣暴力，以及老年人的福尔斯。本申请中提出的四个研究项目涉及这六个领域中的四个。项目1是一个福尔斯预防项目，题为“跌倒没有美（给你带来教育和理解）"。它解决了福尔斯预防使用发型师提供福尔斯预防消息。项目2是一个创伤性脑损伤项目，题为“头部撞击生物力学作为行为矫正工具，以减少轻度创伤性脑损伤风险。“它研究了一种行为干预，使用先进的头盔技术，以帮助青少年足球运动员发展更安全的铲球技术。项目3是机动车相关伤害项目，题为“北卡罗来纳州的驾驶执照政策和年轻人：对种族/少数民族人口的意外后果”。它量化的影响，在少数民族和经济欠发达的社区使用道路交通事故数据和驾驶执照的数据毕业的驾驶执照。项目4是一个处方药过量项目，题为“评价北卡罗来纳州处方药监测方案的主动报告规定”。它研究的影响，引入主动报告到国家的处方药监测计划使用的数据从监测计划数据库。除了这些研究项目外，本申请中提出的外联、翻译和培训举措旨在促进劳动力发展和政策变革。IPRC开发了创新技术，将科学研究转化为政策和实践的切实变化。我们的研究翻译能力的增强部分是由于我们在这一领域的重要工作人员的专业知识，部分是由于我们与我们国家的伤害和暴力预防分支在NC部门积极合作的长期历史。卫生与公众服务部
