DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this project is to enhance and expand Dr. Christopher Martin's patient-oriented research (POR) program in adolescent and young adult alcohol and drug problems, in the context of mentoring efforts with a set of outstanding trainees who have the potential to be future leaders in the field. Dr. Martin is a mid-career investigator with a strong track record and ongoing funding in POR, and a history of successful mentoring and research training. Effort and salary support will involve intensive mentoring with outstanding young investigators, and career development activities in health disparities and the genetics of addiction that will enhance the mentoring activities. The mentoring and career development activities are highly integrated, with the mutually reinforcing goals of advancing trainee careers and enhancing Dr. Martin's program of POR. Two trainees are junior faculty members with K- awards on which Dr. Martin serves as co-mentor: an NCI grant on the correlates of Nicotine Dependence in African-American youth, and an NIDA grant on substance use and risky sex. Another trainee will begin a postdoctoral fellowship with Dr. Martin as primary mentor beginning 9/2012. Dr. Martin also will mentor three outstanding trainees who will soon finish or have recently finished graduate school. These trainees share Dr. Martin's interests in longitudinal latent variable modeling and/or candidate gene approaches to substance problem phenotypes in the context of developmental and environmental influences. These trainees will collaborate on these topics with Dr. Martin, and he will serve as a mentor helping them develop their next grant proposal as they move on to postdoctoral or junior faculty positions in Pittsburgh or elsewhere. Dr. Martin will identify and mentor other TBN postdoctoral and junior faculty trainees (e.g., those with K23 and K01 support) during the K24 period. There are a rich set of institutional resources available to support the mentoring and research plans.

描述(由申请者提供)：该项目的总体目标是加强和扩大Christopher Martin博士的以患者为导向的青少年酒精和毒品问题研究(POR)计划，在指导努力的背景下，与一组有潜力成为该领域未来领导者的杰出学员进行指导。马丁博士是一名职业生涯中期的研究员，在POR方面有着良好的记录和持续的资金支持，并有成功的指导和研究培训的历史。努力和工资支助将包括与杰出的年轻调查员进行密集的指导，以及在健康差距和成瘾遗传方面的职业发展活动，这将加强指导活动。指导和职业发展活动是高度整合的，具有相辅相成的目标，即推进实习生职业生涯和加强马丁博士的POR计划。两名受训者是初级教员，获得了K奖，马丁博士担任共同导师：一项是关于非裔美国年轻人对尼古丁依赖相关性的NCI拨款，另一项是NIDA关于物质使用和高风险性行为的拨款。另一名实习生将从2012年9月开始与马丁博士一起开始博士后研究，担任主要导师。马丁博士还将指导三名即将毕业或刚刚毕业的优秀实习生。这些受训者与马丁博士一样，对纵向潜变量建模和/或候选基因方法在发育和环境影响背景下的物质问题表型方面感兴趣。这些实习生将与马丁博士在这些主题上进行合作，马丁博士将担任导师，帮助他们在进入匹兹堡或其他地方的博士后或初级教职时制定下一份拨款申请。Martin博士将在K24期间确定并指导其他TBN博士后和初级教员实习生(例如，那些得到K23和K01支持的人)。有一套丰富的机构资源可用于支持指导和研究计划。
