DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is an application for a K24 Mid-Career Investigator Award in Patient-Oriented Research for Roger Weiss, M.D. Dr. Weiss is Professor of Psychiatry at Harvard Medical School and Clinical Director of the Alcohol and Drug Abuse Treatment Program at McLean Hospital, Belmont, Massachusetts. Dr. Weiss has devoted his career to patient-oriented drug abuse research. He has had continuous NIDA support since 1989, and has successfully mentored individuals who have become independent, nationally known investigators. His research has focused on the evaluation and treatment of 1) cocaine-dependent patients and 2) substance-dependent patients with co-occurring psychiatric illness. He has studied the integration of different models of treatment (i.e., psychiatric with substance abuse approaches, pharmacotherapy with behavioral therapy, professional treatment with self-help approaches) for drug-dependent and dually diagnosed patients. The primary aim of this award is to enable Dr. Weiss to expand his mentoring capacity while continuing to engage in this program of research. In recent years, Dr. Weiss has mentored an increasing number of junior investigators from McLean Hospital and elsewhere. Much of his current mentoring takes place in the context of his own projects. A K24 Award would enable him to 1) spend more time with his mentees; 2) mentor junior investigators outside the confines of his own projects, in the service of helping them to develop independent investigative careers in patient-oriented research; and 3) take on additional mentees that he currently cannot accommodate. Mentoring will take place in the context of three NIH-funded projects on which Dr. Weiss is Principal Investigator: 1) the NIDA Clinical Trials Network, in which he is PI of the Northern New England Node and Lead Investigator of a multi-site study of treatments for opioid analgesic dependence; 2) his NIDA-funded R01 study of group therapy for patients with bipolar disorder and substance dependence; and 3) the multi-site NIAAA COMBINE study, in which he is PI of the Harvard site. As part of the K24 Award, Dr. Weiss will receive additional training in the areas of 1) chronic pain, 2) brain imaging, and 3) statistics, which will simultaneously strengthen his own research skills and improve his mentoring abilities.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是Roger韦斯，M.D.在以患者为导向的研究中获得K24中期职业研究者奖的申请。韦斯博士是哈佛医学院的精神病学教授，也是马萨诸塞州贝尔蒙特姆克林医院酒精和药物滥用治疗项目的临床主任。韦斯博士致力于以病人为导向的药物滥用研究。自1989年以来，他一直得到NIDA的支持，并成功地指导了那些成为独立的、全国知名的调查人员的个人。他的研究重点是评估和治疗1）可卡因依赖患者和2）物质依赖患者并发精神疾病。他研究了不同治疗模式的整合（即，精神病治疗与药物滥用方法、药物治疗与行为治疗、专业治疗与自助方法）。该奖项的主要目的是使韦斯博士能够扩大他的指导能力，同时继续从事这项研究计划。近年来，韦斯博士指导了越来越多来自姆克林医院和其他地方的初级研究人员。他目前的大部分指导都是在他自己的项目中进行的。K24奖将使他能够1）花更多的时间与他的学员; 2）指导初级研究人员在他自己的项目范围之外，帮助他们在以患者为导向的研究中发展独立的调查事业;和3）承担他目前无法容纳的其他学员。指导将在三个NIH资助项目的背景下进行，韦斯博士是主要研究者：1）NIDA临床试验网络，他是北方新英格兰节点的PI和阿片类镇痛药依赖治疗多中心研究的首席研究员; 2）他的NIDA资助的双相情感障碍和物质依赖患者团体治疗的R 01研究;以及3）多中心NIAAA联合收割机研究，他是哈佛中心的PI。作为K24奖的一部分，韦斯博士将在1）慢性疼痛，2）脑成像和3）统计学领域接受额外的培训，这将同时加强他自己的研究技能和提高他的指导能力。
