DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We will develop the T90/R90 Building Research across Inter-Disciplinary Gaps (BRIDG) CAM Clinical Research Training Program, a partnership between the University of Washington (UW) CTSA program, the Institute of Translational Health Sciences (ITHS) in Seattle, WA, and the National College of Natural Medicine (NCNM) in Portland, OR. Led by Program Directors Drs. Cathryn Booth-LaForce (UW) and Heather Zwickey (NCNM), the primary goal of the postdoctoral BRIDG program is to train promising investigators to translate clinical CAM concepts into testable, multi-disciplinary research hypotheses along the Clinical and Translational Research Spectrum and apply translational research methods to CAM-oriented research. The T90 component of the BRIDG program will provide competitive CAM-trained clinicians with didactic training modules in Basic and Advanced CAM Clinical Research including existing ITHS-sponsored courses and new modules covering a variety of research methods; plus hands-on, clinical research experiences mentored by funded investigators from the UW. The R90 component of the BRIDG program will provide competitive conventionally trained researchers with training and mentorship in the practices of integrative health disciplines, including naturopathy, Classical Chinese Medicine (CCM), herbal medicine, and mind and body therapies. R90 participants will participate in clinical clerkships; implement pilot clinical research to collect preliminary data toward grant proposals, and co-train with T90 trainees during the Advanced CAM Clinical Research seminars and workshops in order to foster collaboration and learn methods more specific to CAM research. The BRIDG Program plans to fund 3 R90 participants and 3 T90 trainees per year. Funding will be provided for either 2 or 3 years per individual, depending on their specific research and training needs and prior experience. The Specific Aims of the BRIDG program are to: 1. Provide promising CAM-trained clinicians with clinical research training at the research-intensive UW, including hands-on research experience, mentorship and didactic training in clinical research methodologies; 2. Provide promising conventionally trained researchers interested in collaborative CAM clinical research with experience in CAM clinical practices at the CAM- intensive NCNM, including hands-on clinical experiences, mentorship and didactic training in integrative clinical health disciplines; 3. Apply innovative online and distance education approaches to deliver, preserve and disseminate the BRIDG program training materials; and 4. Evaluate the BRIDG program on individual, departmental and institutional metrics of success in order to continually improve the program. The products of the BRIDG program will be a cadre of cross-trained clinical CAM research experts prepared to contribute knowledge in response the public's growing need for quality information on CAM; a collaborative distance learning-oriented training model for CAM clinical research education; and a digital archive of the BRIDG didactic seminars and workshops that can be made accessible and disseminated to other interested parties.

描述（由申请人提供）：我们将开发 T90/R90 跨学科差距建设研究 (BRIDG) CAM 临床研究培训计划，该计划是华盛顿大学 (UW) CTSA 计划、华盛顿州西雅图的转化健康科学研究所 (ITHS) 和俄勒冈州波特兰的国家自然医学学院 (NCNM) 之间的合作伙伴关系。由项目主任博士领导。 Cathryn Booth-LaForce (UW) 和 Heather Zwickey (NCNM) 博士后 BRIDG 项目的主要目标是培训有前途的研究人员将临床 CAM 概念转化为临床和转化研究领域可测试的多学科研究假设，并将转化研究方法应用于以 CAM 为导向的研究。 BRIDG 计划的 T90 部分将为经过 CAM 培训的临床医生提供基础和高级 CAM 临床研究的教学培训模块，包括 ITHS 赞助的现有课程和涵盖各种研究方法的新模块；加上由华盛顿大学资助的研究人员指导的实践临床研究经验。 BRIDG 计划的 R90 部分将为经过传统培训的竞争性研究人员提供综合健康学科实践的培训和指导，包括自然疗法、古典中医 (CCM)、草药以及身心疗法。 R90参与者将参加临床见习；实施试点临床研究，收集资助提案的初步数据，并在高级 CAM 临床研究研讨会和讲习班期间与 T90 学员共同培训，以促进合作并学习更具体的 CAM 研究方法。 BRIDG 计划计划每年资助 3 名 R90 参与者和 3 名 T90 学员。根据个人的具体研究和培训需求以及先前的经验，将为每个人提供 2 或 3 年的资助。 BRIDG 计划的具体目标是： 1. 在研究密集型的华盛顿大学为有前途的 CAM 培训临床医生提供临床研究培训，包括实践研究经验、临床研究方法学方面的指导和教学培训； 2. 为对 CAM 协作临床研究感兴趣且具有 CAM 密集型 NCNM 的 CAM 临床实践经验的有前途的受过传统培训的研究人员提供 CAM 密集型 NCNM，包括综合临床健康学科的实践临床经验、指导和教学培训； 3. 应用创新的在线和远程教育方法来提供、保存和传播 BRIDG 计划培训材料； 4. 根据个人、部门和机构的成功指标评估 BRIDG 计划，以不断改进该计划。 BRIDG 计划的产品将是一支由经过交叉培训的临床 CAM 研究专家组成的骨干队伍，他们准备贡献知识，以满足公众对 CAM 高质量信息日益增长的需求；面向 CAM 临床研究教育的协作远程学习培训模式；以及 BRIDG 教学研讨会和讲习班的数字档案，可供其他感兴趣的各方访问和传播。
