RAND REACH Center

项目摘要 有一个迫切的需要，以促进临床科学家教师的发展和研究事业， 认可的学术机构，毕业的补充和综合卫生（CIH）专业人员。好吧-- 训练有素、资源充足、多样化和协作的临床医生科学家对于高保真创新至关重要。 研究能够改善健康结果的补充和综合干预措施。临床科学家 CIH机构的教师也处于理解和帮助回答研究问题的最佳位置 这对推动CIH的科学发展至关重要。此外，他们与学生的互动可能会鼓励一些 考虑未来的职业生涯作为临床科学家，更广泛地说，将暴露所有学生的批判性思维 让他们成为更好的未来临床医生，致力于掌握最新的科学证据。 该应用程序的首要目标是为RESEARCH Across创建一个虚拟资源中心 补充和综合保健机构。该REACH中心的目的是提供 CIH临床机构的临床医生-科学家教师之间的合作资源。该河段 中心将利用赫尔曼博士和库尔特博士于2020年开始的成功努力，兰德中心 在CIH（兰德中心）的合作研究。兰德中心的目的是启动研究 美国和加拿大的13个CIH临床机构之间的合作。这项工作的核心是一个网络- 基于会员的平台，采用以用户为中心的设计，并由会员研究人员提供意见。这 在提交的7项研究提案中，有3项获得了合作，每项提案都由不同的组织资助。 虽然对目前的兰德中心的满意度普遍很高，但13个合作伙伴的主席 各机构同意，如这些具体目标所述，REACH的进步将大大提高其 集体研究成功，并表示全力支持这项申请。这些是目标： 目标1：在中心的多学科合作伙伴中培养和加强虚拟研究社区， 哪些合作研究概念可以孵化成成功的赠款提交，从而产生发现 这将改善症状管理和整个人的健康使用CIH干预。 目标2：为中心成员提供核心研究资源，包括生物统计学和临床信息学 支持，研究设计咨询，赠款行政支持和集体软件/数据集。 目标3：促进研究培训和指导，以改进赠款申请并支持 临床科学家成功的研究生涯。 目标4：在整个支持期内，将为更多的CIH临床机构伙伴关系开展外联活动。 实现这些目标将提高CIH临床机构的研究能力， 研究培训渠道，提高合作机构的研究知识和技能，并促进 创造一种研究文化和下一代具有批判性思维的CIH临床医生。

PROJECT SUMMARY There is a compelling need to foster the development and research careers of clinician-scientist faculty at accredited academic institutions that graduate complementary and integrative health (CIH) professionals. Well- trained, well-resourced, diverse, and collaborative clinician scientists are essential to high-fidelity innovative research of complementary and integrative interventions that can improve health outcomes. Clinician-scientist faculty at CIH institutions are also in an optimal position to understand and help answer research questions that are essential to advance the science of CIH. Further, their interaction with students may encourage some to consider future careers as clinician scientists, and more broadly will expose all students to critical thinking and allow them to be better future clinicians committed to staying current on the latest scientific evidence. The overarching goal of this application is to create a virtual resource center for REsearch Across Complementary and Integrative Health (REACH) institutions. The purpose of this REACH Center is to provide resources for collaboration across clinician-scientist faculty located at CIH clinical institutions. This REACH Center will take advantage of a successful effort begun in 2020 by Drs Herman and Coulter, the RAND Center for Collaborative Research in CIH (RAND Center). The purpose of the RAND Center was to initiate research collaborations between 13 CIH clinical institutions in the US and Canada. At the core of this effort is a web- based members-only platform built using user-centered design with input from member researchers. This collaboration has been awarded 3 of 7 research proposals submitted, each funded by a different organization. While satisfaction with the current RAND Center is universally high, presidents of the 13 partnering institutions agree that the advances of REACH, as outlined in these Specific Aims, would greatly enhance their collective research success, and have expressed their full support for this application. These are the Aims: Aim 1: Foster and enhance a virtual research community across the Center’s multi-disciplinary partners in which collaborative research concepts can be incubated into successful grant submissions resulting in findings which will improve symptom management and whole person health using CIH interventions. Aim 2: Provide core research resources to Center members including biostatistical and clinical informatics support, consultation on research design, grants administrative support, and collective software/datasets. Aim 3: Facilitate research training and mentoring to improve grant applications and support the progression of clinician-scientists into successful research careers. Aim 4: Outreach for additional CIH clinical institution partnerships will occur throughout the support period. Achieving these Aims will increase research capacity within CIH clinical institutions, augment clinical research training pipelines, improve research knowledge and skills within partnering institutions and facilitate the creation of a research culture and the next generation of critically thinking CIH clinicians.
