DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): In this proposal, we describe a collaborative, predoctoral interdisciplinary training program that will produce scholars who will receive rigorous grounding in an academic discipline (health economics, policy analysis, or organizational theory) and who will acquire extensive training and research experience in addiction. The proposal builds on the considerable strengths of current teaching, clinical, and research enterprises at Yale University. We link state-of-the-art methods with some of the nation's leading clinical and research experts in addiction. The primary focus will be on illicit drugs, tobacco and HIV/AIDS as a critical comorbidity occurring with HIV/AIDS. Our request for the next 5 years is for 4 predoctoral positions. Students will enroll in a well-established PhD program in the Health Policy and Administration (HPA) division at Yale School of Public Health. Students will be trained through formal classes, seminars, and mentored research. Each student will be required to obtain expertise in a disciplinary area: health economics, policy analysis or organizational theory, as well as econometrics and biostatistics. Ethical conduct is taught and required for the trainees. They will also learn about addiction in the Division of Substance Abuse (DSA) in Psychiatry at the Yale School of Medicine, as well as through an integrative course taught by Dr. Sindelar. Students will attend existing comprehensive addiction research seminars in DSA and participate in an expanded version of a current course on addiction policy offered by Dr. Sindelar. Two seminars in health services research in HPA will also be required. This curriculum will uniquely prepare students for a career in addiction health services research. Faculty mentors on this proposal have outstanding productivity in research, external funding, teaching, mentoring and training predoctoral and postdoctoral fellows. Many have long-term, productive collaborations with each other through research centers. Thirty mentors have been selected primarily from HPA and DSA. Trainees will be required, and have ample opportunities, to apply their interdisciplinary training to ongoing research in substance abuse treatment, addiction health services research and policies applied to addiction. By attracting a diverse group of high-quality, motivated, predoctoral trainees and providing them in-depth training, excellent mentoring and a rich, interdisciplinary research environment, we expect to produce the next generation of experts in addiction health economics, health services research, and policy analysis. Trainees will produce research that is policy-oriented, population-based and addresses both prevention and treatment, with a goal of improving lives of addicted individuals and reducing the negative impact of addiction on society. Note that while there are multiple training programs at Yale, there is no doctoral-level training program at Yale focused specifically on health economics, policy analysis, and organizational theory as applied to addicted populations.

描述(由申请人提供)：在本提案中，我们描述了一个协作的、博士后跨学科培训计划，该计划将培养出将在某一学术学科(卫生经济学、政策分析或组织理论)获得严格基础并将获得广泛的成瘾培训和研究经验的学者。该提案建立在耶鲁大学目前的教学、临床和研究企业的相当大实力的基础上。我们将最先进的方法与一些全国领先的成瘾临床和研究专家联系起来。主要重点将放在非法药物、烟草和艾滋病毒/艾滋病这一与艾滋病毒/艾滋病并存的严重疾病上。我们对未来5年的要求是4个博士前职位。学生们将在耶鲁大学公共卫生学院卫生政策和行政(HPA)部门注册一个完善的博士项目。学生将通过正式课程、研讨会和有指导的研究来接受培训。每个学生将被要求获得一个学科领域的专业知识：卫生经济学、政策分析或组织理论，以及计量经济学和生物统计学。对受训者传授道德行为，并要求他们遵守。他们还将通过耶鲁医学院精神病学的药物滥用(DSA)部门以及辛德拉尔博士教授的综合课程了解成瘾。学生将参加DSA现有的全面成瘾研究研讨会，并参加由辛德拉尔博士提供的当前成瘾政策课程的扩展版本。还需要在HPA举办两次关于卫生服务研究的研讨会。这门课程将为学生在成瘾健康服务研究领域的职业生涯做好独特的准备。关于这一提议的教师导师在研究、外部资助、教学、指导和培训博士后和博士后研究员方面具有出色的生产力。许多人通过研究中心相互之间进行了长期的、富有成效的合作。30名导师主要从HPA和DSA中挑选出来。受训者将被要求并有充足的机会，将他们的跨学科培训应用于正在进行的药物滥用治疗、成瘾健康服务研究和成瘾政策方面的研究。通过吸引不同的高素质、积极进取的博士前实习生，并为他们提供深入的培训、出色的指导和丰富的跨学科研究环境，我们预计将培养出成瘾健康经济学、健康服务研究和政策分析方面的下一代专家。受训者将进行以政策为导向、以人群为基础的研究，同时涉及预防和治疗，目的是改善成瘾个人的生活，减少成瘾对社会的负面影响。请注意，虽然耶鲁大学有多个培训项目，但耶鲁大学没有专门针对成瘾人群应用的卫生经济学、政策分析和组织理论的博士级培训项目。
