DESCRIPTION: The purpose of this new application for an Institutional NRSA is to provide post-doctoral research training linking genetics and nursing research. The primary goal will be to incorporate genetic research into programs of research for nurse scientists. The training is designed to provide opportunities for post-doctoral students to extend their knowledge and skills in clinical genetic nursing research with an emphasis on a) individual and family responses to genetic information, diagnosis, and risk factors especially with regard to socio-economic, race, and ethnicity factors; b) gene-environment-behavioral relationships and interventions for management and risk reduction of specific health problems, and c) population based surveillance and interventions regarding genetic factors related to human health and disease. A secondary goal is to integrate nursing research within post-doctoral training for genetics scientists. The specific objectives of this program are to: 1) provide rigorous 2-year interdisciplinary training in the theories, methods, and applications of genetics research for post-doctoral nursing fellows; 2) prepare nurses at the post-doctoral level to conduct independent research on genetics related topics; 3) generate opportunities for faculty-trainee research collaboration and mentorship, as well as additional opportunities for interdisciplinary faculty research collaboration; 4) integrate nursing research in the post-doctoral training for selected genetic scientists; 5) stimulate interest and recruitment into genetics and nursing research through a 2-month summer intensive short-term training program; 6) develop a predoctoral training program as a focal track in genetics in the existing PhD nursing program; 7) foster the mentoring capabilities of junior nursing faculty; 8) contribute to the advancement of nursing and genomics by preparing a cadre of scientists who are skilled in clinical genetics research.

描述：机构 NRSA 的这一新申请的目的是提供将遗传学和护理研究联系起来的博士后研究培训。主要目标是将基因研究纳入护士科学家的研究计划中。该培训旨在为博士后学生提供机会，扩展他们在临床遗传护理研究方面的知识和技能，重点是：a）个人和家庭对遗传信息、诊断和风险因素的反应，特别是社会经济、种族和民族因素； b) 基因-环境-行为关系以及针对特定健康问题的管理和风险降低的干预措施，以及 c) 关于与人类健康和疾病相关的遗传因素的基于人群的监测和干预措施。第二个目标是将护理研究整合到遗传学科学家的博士后培训中。该项目的具体目标是：1）为博士后护理人员提供为期2年的严格的遗传学研究理论、方法和应用的跨学科培训； 2）培养博士后级别的护士进行遗传学相关课题的独立研究； 3）创造教师与实习生研究合作和指导的机会，以及跨学科教师研究合作的额外机会； 4）将护理研究纳入选定的遗传科学家的博士后培训中； 5) 通过为期 2 个月的夏季强化短期培训计划，激发对遗传学和护理研究的兴趣和招募； 6）制定博士前培训计划，作为现有博士护理计划中遗传学的重点方向； 7）培养初级护理人员的指导能力； 8) 通过培养一批精通临床遗传学研究的科学家骨干，为护理和基因组学的进步做出贡献。
