DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): There is an urgent need to prepare nursing faculty to advance science addressing global health priorities and prepare the next generation of nurse clinicians and faculty. The University of Utah proposes to expand our well-established doctoral program and experience in postdoctoral training by adding formal interdisciplinary research training in cancer, aging, and end-of-life care to our foundational core curriculum. This training program will address the National Institute of Nursing Research's strategic areas including health promotion and disease prevention; improving quality of life through self-management, symptom management and caregiving; and end-of-life research. The program objectives are 1)To provide outstanding interdisciplinary didactic research training in the fundamental theories, methods, and skills necessary to conduct research in cancer, aging, and end-of-life care; 2)To facilitate the ability of predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees to develop research expertise through ongoing project-oriented research experience in cancer, aging, and end-of-life care that integrates mentoring, practical experiences, feedback, and critique; 3).To prepare postdoctoral trainees for independent academic careers as scientists in cancer, aging, and end-of-life care; and 4) To mentor all trainees in the ethical conduct of research, especially in diverse vulnerable populations, including the elderly and individuals facing serious illness and death. The University's funded interdisciplinary research program is robust and offers excellent opportunities for trainees to learn by engagement with research in action. The proposed training program is timely and leverages the opportunities to learn from three R01-level projects that comprise our Program Project Grant (P01) funded by the National Cancer Institute in 2010. This research has as its foundation an interdisciplinary approach and unites the three foci of this training program: cancer, aging, and end-of life care. Fifteen primary mentors and 15 participating faculty from eight departments will support the training. The goal of the Training Program is to recruit and train two predoctoral and two postdoctoral fellows during each of the first 4 years. We will provide at least 2 years of training to each fellow. Our goal is that a leas one predoctoral fellow each year will be enrolled in our BS-to-PhD program (these are sometimes referred to as fast- track programs). It is anticipated that a total of eight predoctoral and eight postdoctoral fellows will participate in this Training Program during the 5-year period.

描述（由申请人提供）：迫切需要准备护理教师，以推进解决全球健康优先事项的科学，并准备下一代临床护士和教师。犹他大学建议通过在我们的基础核心课程中增加癌症、老龄化和临终关怀方面的正式跨学科研究培训，扩大我们已经建立的博士项目和博士后培训经验。该培训方案将涉及国家护理研究所的战略领域，包括促进健康和预防疾病；通过自我管理、症状管理和护理改善生活质量；还有临终研究。该计划的目标是：1)提供优秀的跨学科教学研究培训，包括开展癌症、老龄化和临终关怀研究所需的基本理论、方法和技能；2)通过整合指导、实践经验、反馈和批评的癌症、老龄化和临终关怀方面的持续项目导向研究经验，促进博士前和博士后受训者发展研究专长的能力；3）.为博士后学员在癌症、老龄化和临终关怀领域的独立学术生涯做好准备；4)指导所有受训者进行合乎道德的研究，特别是针对不同的弱势群体，包括老年人和面临严重疾病和死亡的个人。该大学资助的跨学科研究项目非常强大，为学员提供了通过参与实际研究来学习的绝佳机会。该培训计划是及时的，并利用了从三个r01级项目中学习的机会，这些项目包括2010年由美国国家癌症研究所资助的我们的项目项目资助（P01）。本研究以跨学科的方法为基础，结合了本培训计划的三个重点：癌症、衰老和临终关怀。来自8个系的15名主要导师和15名参与教师将支持培训。培养计划的目标是在前4年每年招收和培养2名博士前研究员和2名博士后研究员。我们将为每位研究员提供至少2年的培训。我们的目标是每年至少招收一名博士预科生参加我们的BS-to-PhD项目（这些项目有时被称为快速通道项目）。预计博士预科共8名
