Abstract Advances in improving oral health depend upon producing well-trained and highly competent scientists capable of conducting rigorous dental, oral and craniofacial research, as well as working in multidisciplinary teams to translate research findings into applications that improve the health of the public. This proposed training program at the University of Washington (UW) is a competing renewal of an existing T90/R90 training grant on Comprehensive Training in Interdisciplinary Oral Health Research. Our previous NIDCR-funded training programs have been highly effective, with over 80% of our trainees from the prior 15 years currently working in research-intensive or research-related positions. We have successfully created and refined a comprehensive program that covers a broad spectrum of interdisciplinary oral health research areas. Research areas included are public health, behavioral, and clinical, as well as basic and translational. The multidisciplinary Department of Oral Health Sciences (OHS) in the School of Dentistry serves as the focal point for the program, providing core content for all trainees. Other participating departments include Biostatistics, Epidemiology and Health Services in the School of Public Health. Focal areas in basic and translational sciences include molecular and genetic approaches to health and disease; craniofacial structure, function and development; and stem cell biology/tissue regeneration/engineering. In the current application, our objectives are to: 1) provide rigorous, discipline-based training in basic/translational or public health/behavioral/clinical oral health research (achieved through departmental graduate programs and mentored research); and, 2) provide experiences that develop trainees' skills for participating as strong contributing members of multidisciplinary research teams (achieved through core seminars and research presentations, as well as individualized career development opportunities, based on the trainee's Individual Development Plan). Pre- doctoral training (2 PhD positions) is offered through PhD programs in all four participating departments. The DDS/PhD program (3 positions) is offered through the Oral Biology Graduate Program in OHS. Postdoctoral training (5 positions) is offered for PhD's working on oral health research topics, as well as for dentists seeking additional research training and experience. Included is 1 postdoctoral position designated for a non-citizen dentist interested in advanced research training in preparation for a research career, particularly in a US school of dentistry. The expected duration of appointments is 5 years for pre-doctoral and 2 or 3 years for postdoctoral trainees. We will evaluate the program based not only on process measures, but also on long- term outcomes, including positions taken by trainees and their success in them, the number, quality and multidisciplinary nature of scientific publications, and grants applied for and funded.

摘要 改善口腔健康的进展取决于培养训练有素和高度胜任的科学家 能够进行严格的牙科，口腔和颅面研究，以及在多学科工作， 团队将研究成果转化为改善公众健康的应用。这一拟议 华盛顿大学（UW）的训练计划是对现有的T90/R90训练的竞争性更新 跨学科口腔健康研究综合培训补助金。我们以前的NIDCR资助 培训项目非常有效，目前我们80%以上的学员来自前15年 从事研究密集型或与研究相关的职位。我们已经成功地创造和完善了一个 一个全面的计划，涵盖了广泛的跨学科口腔健康研究领域。 研究领域包括公共卫生，行为和临床，以及基础和翻译。的 牙科学院口腔健康科学（OHS）的多学科部门作为协调中心 为所有学员提供核心内容。其他参与部门包括生物统计学， 公共卫生学院的流行病学和卫生服务。基础和翻译的重点领域 科学包括健康和疾病的分子和遗传方法;颅面结构，功能和 干细胞生物学/组织再生/工程学。在当前应用中，我们的目标是 是：1）提供严格的，基于学科的培训，在基础/翻译或公共卫生/行为/临床 口腔健康研究（通过部门研究生课程和指导研究实现）;以及， 2)提供经验，培养受训者的技能，使他们能够作为强有力的贡献者参与， 多学科研究团队（通过核心研讨会和研究报告以及 根据学员的个人发展计划，提供个性化的职业发展机会）。预处理 博士培训（2个博士学位）通过博士课程在所有四个参与部门提供。的 DDS/博士课程（3个职位）通过OHS的口腔生物学研究生课程提供。博士后 培训（5个职位）是为博士工作的口腔健康研究课题，以及为牙医寻求 额外的研究培训和经验。包括1个为非公民指定的博士后职位 对高级研究培训感兴趣的牙医，为研究生涯做准备，特别是在美国学校 牙科学预期的任期为5年的博士预科和2或3年的 博士后研究生。我们将评估该计划的基础上不仅是过程的措施，但也对长期- 长期成果，包括受训人员担任的职位及其成功情况、人数、质量和 科学出版物的多学科性质以及申请和资助的赠款。
