DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overarching goal of this competing continuation NIH/NCCAM T32 application for the Arizona Complementary and Alternative Medicine Research Training Program (ACAMRTP, PI Iris R. Bell, MD PhD) is to prepare qualified fellows to perform rigorous and innovative research on whole systems of CAM within the setting of an interdisciplinary Department of Family and Community Medicine (DFCM) at the University of Arizona College of Medicine. Successful ACAMRTP fellows will proceed into productive and successful academic careers that will contribute to evaluating the effectiveness, safety, impact, and societal mechanisms of widely-used whole systems of CAM, e.g., traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), homeopathy, naturopathy, indigenous healing traditions, and contemporary integrative medicine. This emphasis is consistent with stated goal of NCCAM's Five-Year Strategic Plan to support whole systems research (WSR). To achieve the overarching goal, current specific aims are: 1. To identify and recruit qualified applicants as fellows, drawn from a range of primary disciplines that are relevant to a whole systems of CAM approach, including primary care medicine, anthropology, nursing, psychology, and CAM disciplines. 2. To offer a structured and directed training program that will include clear primary and secondary scientific and academic goals, regular constructive interactions with core DFCM faculty mentors and affiliate mentoring faculty with funded CAM research interests throughout the University of Arizona, thoughtful scientific criticism of the work of the fellows, support for professional presentations and submission of results for publication, and practical preparation in grant-writing, project development, and project implementation skills for career success. 3. To ground fellows in a interdisciplinary WSR approach, through formal coursework and seminar series, conferences, interactions with scientific mentors, and research projects that are integrated into a comprehensive program. This work builds upon existing collaborative relationships of T32 core faculty members with the Program in Integrative Medicine and other academic units at the University as well as the network of extramural collaborators at CAM-oriented doctoral institutions who will refer potential trainees for admission. The current proposal reflects several enhancements from an administrative, academic, and curricular perspective that emerged from experience in the first five years of implementing this T32 program.

描述（由申请人提供）：亚利桑那州补充和替代医学研究培训计划（ACAMRTP，PI Iris R.贝尔，医学博士和博士）是准备合格的研究员进行严格的和创新的研究，对整个系统的CAM内设置的家庭和社区医学（DFCM）在亚利桑那大学医学院的跨学科部门。成功的ACAMRTP研究员将进入富有成效和成功的学术生涯，这将有助于评估广泛使用的整个CAM系统的有效性，安全性，影响和社会机制，例如，传统中医、顺势疗法、自然疗法、本土治疗传统和当代综合医学。这一重点是与NCCAM的五年战略计划，以支持整个系统的研究（WSR）的既定目标相一致。为实现总体目标，目前的具体目标是：1.从与CAM方法的整个系统相关的一系列主要学科中确定和招募合格的申请人作为研究员，包括初级保健医学，人类学，护理学，心理学和CAM学科。2.为了提供一个结构化和有针对性的培训计划，将包括明确的主要和次要的科学和学术目标，与核心DFCM教师导师和附属指导教师定期建设性的互动与资助整个亚利桑那大学的CAM研究兴趣，对研究员的工作进行深思熟虑的科学批评，支持专业演讲和提交结果供出版，和实际准备的赠款写作，项目开发和项目实施技能的职业成功。3.以跨学科的WSR方法为基础，通过正式的课程和系列研讨会，会议，与科学导师的互动，以及整合到综合计划中的研究项目。这项工作建立在T32核心教师与中西医结合项目和大学其他学术单位的现有合作关系之上，以及CAM博士机构的校外合作者网络，他们将推荐潜在的学员入学。目前的建议反映了从行政，学术和课程的角度来看，在实施这个T32计划的前五年的经验出现了几个增强。
