PROJECT SUMMARY: POSTDOCTORAL TRAINING IN SUICIDE RESEARCH Suicidal behavior is a major public health problem with over 47,000 deaths by suicide in the United States in 2017 and over 1,400,000 suicide attempts. Unfortunately, rates of suicide deaths and attempts have increased in recent years. There have been multiple calls for increased research on all aspects of suicidal behavior ranging from basic experimental to clinical trials to implementation efforts. Yet the cadre of researchers necessary to conduct this vitally needed research is limited. There is currently only one other T32 postdoctoral training program focused exclusively on suicide research, with only six training slots. Thus, there is a pressing need for more training in suicide research. Brown has a established cadre of suicide researchers including 10 senior level researchers, as well as 5 junior level suicide researchers. These faculty’s research focus covers a broad range of suicide research, spanning basic and predictive research, intervention, and implementation science. Other faculty at Brown offer a wide range of expertise in research areas that are highly complementary to important questions in suicide research, such as sleep, genetics, implementation science, big data, and statistics. Our faculty has extensive experience training new investigators; one of the MPIs of this application (Dr. Miller) led a very successful T32 (T32MH067553) in “Treatment Research” for 10 years. Other senior investigators have successfully mentored a number of postdoctoral fellows. Finally, Brown has a well established and successful infrastructure for research training, including five other NIH funded T32 programs (none of which focus of suicide). This postdoctoral training program will be directed jointly by Drs. Ivan Miller and Lauren Weinstock. Drs. Miller and Weinstock are established investigators with a history of conducting suicide research. With a plan to enroll three new postdoctoral fellows (PhDs and MDs) per year for a 2-3 year postdoctoral fellowship experience, the research training plan will be based on the apprenticeship model. Based on the fellow’s interests and overlap with faculty’s expertise, each fellow will be assigned to a senior suicide researcher as a Primary Mentor. Each fellow will also have a Co-Mentor, either a junior suicide researcher or a senior researcher with complementary expertise. Developed collaboratively between fellow and Mentor(s), the research training program will typically include five components: (1) supervised participation in the ongoing work of an established research team led by the primary mentor; (2) development of an independent research application to be submitted by the end of the first training year; (3) participation in a formal didactic program including seminars on suicide research, research design, and ethics; (4) data analysis and manuscript preparation from existing faculty data; and (5) an independent research project conducted over two years, supervised by the primary mentor, that will include formulation of the question, data analysis, and manuscript preparation.

项目摘要：自杀研究的博士后培训 自杀行为是一个主要的公共卫生问题，#年美国有超过4.7万人死于自杀 2017年和超过140万起自杀未遂事件。不幸的是，自杀死亡率和自杀未遂率都有所上升。 在最近几年。有许多人呼吁加强对自杀行为各方面的研究 范围从基础实验到临床试验再到实施努力。然而，研究人员的队伍 进行这项极其必要的研究的必要性是有限的。目前只有一名其他的T32博士后 培训计划只专注于自杀研究，只有6个培训时段。因此，有一个紧迫的问题 在自杀研究方面需要更多的培训。布朗有一支成熟的自杀研究队伍，其中包括10名 高级研究人员，以及5名初级自杀研究人员。这些教师的研究重点包括 广泛的自杀研究，涵盖基础和预测性研究、干预和实施 科学。布朗大学的其他教员在高度重视的研究领域提供广泛的专业知识。 补充自杀研究中的重要问题，如睡眠、遗传学、实施科学、 大数据和统计数据。我们的教职员工有培训新调查员的丰富经验；这方面的MPI之一 应用(米勒博士)领导了一个非常成功的T32(T32MH067553)在《治疗研究》工作了10年。其他 高级调查人员已经成功地指导了一批博士后研究员。最后，布朗有一口井 为研究培训建立了成功的基础设施，包括NIH资助的其他五个T32项目 (这些都不是自杀的焦点)。博士后培训计划将由伊万·米勒博士联合指导 还有劳伦·温斯托克。米勒博士和温斯托克博士都是有指挥历史的老牌调查人员 自杀研究。计划每年招收三名新的博士后研究员(博士和博士)，为期2-3年 博士后留学经历方面，科研培养计划将以学徒制模式为基础。 根据研究员的兴趣和与教员的专业知识重叠，每个研究员将被分配到一名高年级学生 作为主要导师的自杀研究人员。每个研究员还将有一名共同导师，要么是少年自杀 具有互补专业知识的研究员或高级研究员。在同事之间协作开发 和导师(S)，研究培训计划通常包括五个组成部分：(1)监督参与 在由主要导师领导的现有研究小组的持续工作中；(2)制定 在第一个培训年度结束前提交独立研究申请；(3)参加 正式的教学计划，包括自杀研究、研究设计和伦理的研讨会；(4)数据分析 从现有的教员数据中编写手稿；以及(5)进行的独立研究项目 两年，在主要导师的监督下，这将包括问题的形成，数据分析，以及 手稿准备工作。
