Yale-CORE Career Development Program in Patient-Centered Outcomes Research

描述(由申请人提供)：该计划的目标是通过使用比较有效性研究(CER)方法，将学者培养成擅长研究、领导和翻译的以患者为中心的结果研究(PCOR)科学家，从而改善美国的医疗保健。CER通过产生关于替代战略的知识来支持PCOR，以告知患者及其护理人员、卫生保健专业人员和政策制定者的选择。支持卫生保健临床、组织和政策决策的证据远远落后于所需。挑战在于，虽然对这方面的知识有巨大的需求，但我们只有太少的研究人员专注于变革和重建，并接受过CER工具的培训，他们也有技能让患者和公众作为研究过程中的合作伙伴，并有效地将研究转化为行动。拟议的计划将：[目标1]培养具有知识、技能和能力的科学家成为独立的PCOR调查人员，并产生准备应用的实用知识；[目标2]培养未来的领导者，他们有能力领导具有广泛包容性的多学科团队，研究可能改善医疗保健的主题，并参与领导医疗保健的积极变革；[目标3]通过建设学者能力培养知识翻译人员，让包括患者及其照顾者在内的利益相关者参与进来，使用一系列方法从一开始通过传播向广泛的个人交流他们的研究成果，并促进将研究结果应用于实际实践。该计划有一个教学部分，包括课程和体验式学习，以及有指导的研究经验。预计学者将开发和实施至少两个主要的个人研究项目；成功的学者将获得卫生服务硕士学位。教师代表了耶鲁大学众多学院的非凡学科，包括医学、护理、公共卫生、法律、管理和文理，以及医学领域，包括内科、儿科、急诊医学、妇产科和精神病学。该计划将持续两到三年，根据学者先前的培训。我们预计在实施的第一年招聘三名学者，在随后的几年中增加到四到五名。候选人必须：a)拥有认可课程的博士学位(医学博士、博士或博士学位或同等学历)，b)是美国公民或非美国公民，或合法获准永久居留。除了这些最低的正式要求外，以下资格也是必不可少的：a)坚定致力于PCOR和CER的证据；b)在以前的学术或临床培训领域取得卓越学术成就的记录；c)承诺与利益攸关方作为合作伙伴合作，并专注于知识创造和翻译。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of the Program is to improve health care in the United States by developing Scholars to be patient-centered outcomes research (PCOR) scientists skilled in research, leadership, and translation, using comparative effectiveness research (CER) methods. CER supports PCOR through generation of knowledge about alternative strategies to inform the choices of patients and their caregivers, health care professionals, and policymakers. The evidence to support clinical, organizational and policy decisions in health care lags far behind what is needed. The challenge is that while there is an immense need for this knowledge, we have too few investigators focused on PCOR and trained in the tools of CER who also have the skills to engage patients and the public as partners in the course of the research and to be effective in translating research into action. The proposed program will: [Aim 1] Develop scientists with the knowledge, skills, and ability to become independent PCOR investigators and generate practical knowledge poised for application; [Aim 2] Develop future leaders who have the ability to lead broadly inclusive multidisciplinary teams in studying topics likely to improve health care and participate in leading positive change in health care; [Aim 3] Develop knowledge translators by building Scholar capacity to engage stakeholders, including patients and their caregivers, communicate about their research from inception through dissemination to a broad range of individuals using an array of approaches, and promote the application of the findings in actual practice. The program has a didactic component, including coursework and experiential learning, and mentored research experience. Scholars are expected to develop and implement at least two major individual research projects; successful Scholars will receive a Masters in Health Services degree. Faculty represent an extraordinary breadth of disciplines from a wide array of schools within Yale, including Medicine, Nursing, Public Health, Law, Management, and Arts and Sciences, and areas within medicine, including internal medicine, pediatrics, emergency medicine, obstetrics and gynecology, and psychiatry. The program will be two to three years in duration, based upon Scholars' prior training. We anticipate recruiting three Scholars in the first year of implementation, increasing t four or five in subsequent years. Candidates must: a) have a Doctoral Degree (MD, DO or PhD, or equivalent) from an accredited program and b) be a United States citizen or non-citizen national, or be lawfully admitted for permanent residence. In addition to these minimal formal requirements, the following qualifications are essential: a) evidence of a strong commitment to PCOR and CER; b) a record of academic excellence in fields of previous academic or clinical training; c) a commitment to work with stakeholders as partners and to focus on knowledge generation and translation.
