 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests continued support of the Interdisciplinary Research Training Institute (IRTI) on Hispanic Drug Abuse (5 R25DA026401) that has developed and implemented a research education program aimed at promoting the career development of pre-doctoral and early career clinically focused scientists interested in conducting research that affects the Hispanic population. This comprehensive and coordinated effort focuses on providing research experience and increasing the skills required for the preparation and submission of competitive research applications for NIH extramural funding. This renewal application expands the scope of the IRTI program to include international clinically focused fellows from Mexico. Building upon the success and accomplishments of the existing IRTI, the specific aims of the IRTI are to (1) Continue to provide an improved educational training opportunity to enhance the skills for conducting interdisciplinary Hispanic drug research and developing applications for NIH funding among pre-doctoral, postdoctoral and early career faculty members (fellows) through the implementation of an 11-day intensive summer research training program; (2) Expand the scope of the IRTI program to include international, clinically focused fellows from Mexico that will serve to strengthen their capacity o conduct independent drug research and provide opportunities for U.S. and Mexico fellows to share knowledge that may develop into research activities aimed at enhancing bi-national public health efforts to address drug abuse and addiction; (3) Continue to execute an improved mentoring plan structured around a team of interdisciplinary senior faculty mentors who would be accessible and available to provide selected fellows with focused mentoring and continued support; (4) Continue to provide an improved networking structure and process that will assist fellows in building and maintaining relationships and communication with leading experts in the field of Hispanic drug research and fellow peers. Mentoring activities will focus on guiding and assisting the fellows in achieving benchmarks of progress including: a) Academic Career Progress; b) Scientific Publications; c) Scientific Presentations; and d) Research Funding. These outcomes will be facilitated through various types of support provided by the IRTI including: Mentor Commitment, Travel to Mentor Institution, E-Mentoring Technologies, Conferences/Workshops, and IRTI Mentoring Annual Meeting. The complex and technical nature of contemporary drug abuse research and the growing demands for drug-related knowledge across several disciplines requires that competitive research investigators develop a broad-based set of scientific knowledge and scientific research skills that will facilitate the conduct of interdisciplinary drug abuse research in the interest of public health. Building upon the existing mentoring and networking success, the proposed IRTI renewal will continue to fill the gap in knowledge on how to develop effective research incubators that will increase the number of minority drug abuse researchers.

 描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求跨学科研究培训研究所（IRTI）对西班牙裔药物滥用（5 R25 DA 026401）的持续支持，该研究所开发并实施了一项研究教育计划，旨在促进博士前和早期职业生涯临床重点科学家的职业发展，他们有兴趣进行影响西班牙裔人口的研究。这一全面和协调的努力侧重于提供研究经验，并提高准备和提交NIH校外资金的竞争性研究申请所需的技能。这项更新申请扩大了IRTI计划的范围，包括来自墨西哥的国际临床研究员。在现有IRTI的成功和成就的基础上，IRTI的具体目标是：（1）继续提供改进的教育培训机会，通过实施为期11天的密集夏季研究培训计划，提高进行跨学科西班牙裔药物研究的技能，并在博士前，博士后和早期职业教师（研究员）中开发NIH资金申请;（2）扩大IRTI计划的范围，包括来自墨西哥的国际临床研究员，这将有助于加强他们进行独立药物研究的能力，并为美国和墨西哥研究员提供机会，分享可能发展为研究活动的知识，旨在加强两国的公共卫生工作，以解决药物滥用和成瘾问题;（3）继续执行改进的指导计划，该计划围绕一个跨学科高级教师导师团队构建，他们可以为选定的研究员提供有针对性的指导和持续的支持;（四）继续提供一个改进的网络结构和过程，这将有助于研究人员建立和保持与西班牙裔药物领域领先专家的关系和沟通。研究和同行。辅导活动将侧重于指导和协助研究员实现进展基准，包括：a）学术职业进展; B）科学出版物; c）科学演讲; d）研究资金。这些成果将通过IRTI提供的各种支持来促进，包括：导师承诺，导师机构旅行，电子导师技术，会议/研讨会和IRTI导师年会。当代药物滥用研究的复杂性和技术性以及对跨几个学科的药物相关知识的日益增长的需求，要求有竞争力的研究调查人员发展一套基础广泛的科学知识和科学研究技能，这将有利于为公共健康开展跨学科药物滥用研究。在现有的指导和联网成功的基础上，拟议的IRTI更新将继续填补关于如何发展有效的研究孵化器的知识方面的差距，这将增加少数群体药物滥用研究人员的人数。
