PROJECT SUMMARY CORE A: Administrative Core Unhealthy behavioral choices to smoke, overeat and lead sedentary lifestyles underlie the preponderance of chronic disease in the U.S. Greater understanding of the mechanisms underpinning vulnerability to such unhealthy decision making and developing more effective interventions to promote behavior change is vitally important to improving the U.S. public health. The overarching goal of the Administrative Core of the Vermont Center on Behavior and Health (VCBH) is to organize and grow existing strengths at the University of Vermont (UVM) while continuing to engage in local, national, and international collaborations in this important area of health research. This core has established the administrative and intellectual infrastructure necessary to (a) strengthen and grow collaboration among an multidisciplinary group of investigators who share research and clinical expertise in this area, (b) effectively mentor early-career faculty in conducting thematically related research and preparing competitive research grant applications, (c) engage in productive collaborations with community healthcare organizations and other universities located in IDeA states and beyond, (d) recruit new members into the center, and (e) continue to secure the necessary financial support to sustain the VCBH beyond COBRE support. We propose that Stephen T. Higgins, PhD, continue as Director of this core with Philip A. Ades, MD continuing in the role of Associate Director. Accomplished UVM senior faculty will continue directing cores on (a) behavioral economics and intervention sciences, and (b) collaboration, dissemination, and education, while also mentoring early-career faculty in conducting COBRE-supported and thematically related research projects. We will continue collaborating with Vermont community healthcare leaders and investigators from other IDeA States and beyond in pursuing the VCBH mission. Program oversight will be guided by an External Advisory Committee of distinguished scientific leaders in the area of behavior and health. An Internal Advisory Committee composed of accomplished senior UVM investigators will continue advising the VCBH on scientific and organizational matters. A Community Advisory Committee of experts in Vermont health care delivery and policy will help assure that the VCBH remains responsive to community needs. This interdisciplinary team will work closely together to continue the overarching goal of establishing the VCBH as a nationally and internationally recognized center of research excellence.

项目摘要 核心A：行政核心 吸烟、暴饮暴食和久坐不动的生活方式等不健康的行为选择是以下因素的主要原因： 更好地理解这种脆弱性的基础机制， 不健康的决策和发展更有效的干预措施，以促进行为改变是至关重要的， 这对改善美国的公共卫生至关重要。佛蒙特州行政核心的总体目标 行为与健康中心（VCBH）是组织和发展佛蒙特大学现有的优势 (UVM)同时继续在这一重要领域开展地方、国家和国际合作， 健康研究。这一核心建立了必要的行政和知识基础设施， 加强和发展多学科研究人员之间的合作， 在这一领域的临床专业知识，（B）有效地指导早期职业教师进行主题相关 研究和准备有竞争力的研究补助金申请，（c）与 社区医疗保健组织和其他大学位于IDEA州及以外，（d）招募新的 （e）继续获得必要的财政支持，以维持VCBH 除了COBRE的支持。我们建议Stephen T.希金斯博士继续担任该核心的主任， Philip A. Ades，MD继续担任副主任。完成UVM高级教师将继续 指导核心（a）行为经济学和干预科学，以及（B）合作，传播， 和教育，同时也指导早期职业教师进行COBRE-supported和主题 相关研究项目。我们将继续与佛蒙特州社区医疗保健领导人合作， 来自其他IDEA州及其他州的调查人员在追求VCBH使命。计划监督将是 由行为领域杰出科学领导人组成的外部咨询委员会指导， 健康由经验丰富的UVM高级调查员组成的内部咨询委员会将继续 就科学和组织事项向VCBH提供咨询。由专家组成的社区咨询委员会， 佛蒙特州的医疗保健服务和政策将有助于确保VCBH仍然对社区做出反应 需求这个跨学科的团队将密切合作，继续实现建立 VCBH是国内和国际公认的卓越研究中心。
