DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): UCLA's Department of Health Policy and Management at the UCLA Fielding School of Public Health, in collaboration with RAND Health, the Schaeffer Center for Health Economics at the University of Southern California, and the Veterans Administration Center of Excellence for the Study of Healthcare Provider Behavior, proposes the renewal of its pre- and postdoctoral training grant, which has had an outstanding record of producing the next generation of scholars over the past 20 years. The primary goal of this collaboration, called the Los Angeles Area Health Services Research Training Program, is to provide comprehensive training and experience to highly-qualified pre- and postdoctoral trainees, so that they may effectively engage in, and eventually lead, research and implementation activities aimed at improving the quality and efficiency of the U.S. health care system. Taking advantage of the expertise of faculty and researchers - over three dozen of whom have agreed to be mentors - at these institutions as well as a track-record of community involvement in the Los Angeles area, the Training Program focuses on several key research topics in which the collaboration has particular expertise: health systems change; health equity; health services outside the clinic; implementation science; patient, provider, and organizational decision-making; and health outcomes measurement. Pre-doctoral trainees will complete the Ph.D. curriculum and requirements in the UCLA Department of Health Policy and Management. The Ph.D. program in is designed to provide high-level methodological skills and applied training, with depth in study design and evaluation, statistics/econometrics, and applications to the health care sector. Moreover, each student is required to choose a cognate (examples include economics, sociology, public policy, organizational behavior, and health care outcomes research) in which they take additional courses that develop competencies in cognate-related theory, conceptual models and research methods. The postdoctoral program will provide individualized training plans for postdoctoral trainees. Unlike many such programs in the sciences, trainees are not assigned to work on particular projects. Upon entry into the program, they meet individually with key faculty involved in the Training Program at the four collaborating institutions, so that they can learn about the opportunities in each institution and choose appropriate mentors and projects. During their postdoctoral experience, they collaborate with the program's faculty and researchers, develop their own research, submit journal articles, and write grant proposals to help facilitate their move to their next professional position.

描述（由申请人提供）：加州大学洛杉矶分校菲尔丁公共卫生学院卫生政策与管理系与兰德健康、南加州大学谢弗卫生经济学中心和退伍军人管理卓越医疗服务提供者行为研究中心合作，提议更新其博士后前和博士后培训补助金，该补助金在过去20年里在培养下一代学者方面取得了杰出的成就。这项合作的主要目标，被称为洛杉矶地区卫生服务研究培训计划，是为高素质的博士前和博士后学员提供全面的培训和经验，使他们能够有效地参与并最终领导旨在提高美国卫生保健系统质量和效率的研究和实施活动。利用这些机构的教师和研究人员的专业知识（其中三十多名已同意担任导师）以及洛杉矶地区社区参与的记录，培训计划侧重于几个关键的研究课题，其中合作具有特殊的专业知识：卫生系统变革；卫生公平;诊所以外的保健服务；实现科学;患者、提供者和组织决策；以及健康结果测量。博士预科学员将完成加州大学洛杉矶分校卫生政策与管理系的博士课程和要求。博士课程旨在提供高水平的方法技能和应用培训，深入研究设计和评估，统计/计量经济学以及医疗保健部门的应用。此外，每个学生都必须选择一个同源学科（例如经济学、社会学、公共政策、组织行为学和卫生保健结果研究），在这个学科中，他们需要学习额外的课程，以培养与同源学科相关的理论、概念模型和研究方法的能力。博士后项目将为博士后学员提供个性化的培养计划。与科学领域的许多此类项目不同，受训者不会被分配从事特定的项目。在进入培训项目后，他们将与四所合作院校参与培训项目的主要教员单独会面，以便他们了解每个院校的机会，并选择合适的导师和项目。在他们的博士后经历中，他们与项目的教师和研究人员合作，发展自己的研究，提交期刊文章，并撰写资助提案，以帮助他们转移到下一个专业职位。
