PROJECT SUMMARY Administrative Core Unhealthy choices to smoke, consume alcohol in excess, overeat, and lead sedentary lifestyles underlie a preponderance of chronic disease in the U.S. Greater understanding of the mechanisms underpinning vulnerability to such unhealthy behavior and developing more effective behavior-change interventions is vitally important to improving U.S. public health. The overarching goal of the Administrative Core of the Vermont Center on Behavior and Health (VCBH) is to coalesce existing strengths and seed new research directions at the University of Vermont (UVM) while continuing to engage in local, national, and international collaborations. During Phases 1 and 2, this core has established the administrative and intellectual infrastructure necessary to (a) strengthen and grow collaboration among a critical mass of talented investigators who share scientific expertise in this area, (b) effectively mentor early-career faculty in conducting thematically related research and (c) coalesce the productive collaborations necessary to compete effectively in obtaining external grant support at levels that can sustain the VCBH beyond COBRE support. We propose that Stephen T. Higgins, PhD, continue as Director of this core with Philip A. Ades, MD, as Associate Director. Accomplished UVM independent investigators will continue directing cores on behavioral economics and intervention sciences (Stacey C. Sigmon, PhD), and collaboration, dissemination, and education (Diann E. Gaalema, PhD, & Richard A. Rawson, PhD). A Pilot Project Program led by Dr. Higgins and Elias M. Klemperer, PhD, will be leveraged to support and mentor early-career faculty and generate preliminary data for collaborative NIH center grants and program projects as well as more focused applications in the R series. We will continue collaborating with community healthcare leaders and investigators from other IDeA States and beyond in pursuing the VCBH mission to grow collaborative research and impact state and federal public health policy. Program oversight will be guided by an External Advisory Committee of distinguished scientific leaders in behavior and health. An Internal Advisory Committee composed of accomplished multidisciplinary senior UVM investigators will provide guidance on scientific and organizational matters. A Community Advisory Committee of Vermont experts in healthcare delivery and policy will assure that VCBH remains apprised of local healthcare challenges. This multidisciplinary team will work closely together to firmly establish VCBH as a sustainable center of research excellence with local, national, and international reach.

项目摘要 行政核心 吸烟、过量饮酒、暴饮暴食和久坐不动的生活方式是不健康的选择， 美国慢性病的优势，更好地了解其机制 对这种不健康行为的脆弱性和制定更有效的行为改变干预措施至关重要， 这对改善美国的公共卫生至关重要。佛蒙特中心行政核心的总体目标 行为与健康（VCBH）是结合现有的优势和种子新的研究方向， 佛蒙特大学（UVM），同时继续从事地方，国家和国际合作。 在第一和第二阶段，这一核心建立了必要的行政和知识基础设施， (a)加强和发展大量有才华的研究人员之间的合作，他们分享科学知识， 在这一领域的专业知识，（B）有效地指导早期职业教师进行主题相关的研究， (c)联合必要的富有成效的合作，以便在获得外部赠款支持方面进行有效竞争 在COBRE支持之外维持VCBH的水平。我们建议Stephen T.希金斯博士，继续 作为这个核心的主任，Ades，MD，担任副主任。完成UVM独立 调查人员将继续指导行为经济学和干预科学的核心（斯泰西C。西格蒙 博士），以及合作，传播和教育（迪安E。Gaalema，PhD，& Richard A.罗森博士）。一 由希金斯博士和埃利亚斯M。Klemperer博士将被用来支持和指导 早期职业教师，并为合作NIH中心赠款和计划项目生成初步数据， 以及R系列中更集中的应用程序。我们将继续与社区医疗合作 来自其他IDEA州及其他州的领导人和调查人员，以实现VCBH的使命， 研究和影响州和联邦公共卫生政策。项目监督将由外部 行为与健康领域杰出科学领袖咨询委员会。内部咨询委员会 由多才多艺的多学科高级UVM研究人员组成，将提供科学和 组织事项.佛蒙特州医疗服务和政策专家社区咨询委员会 将确保VCBH随时了解当地的医疗保健挑战。这个多学科团队将在 紧密合作，牢固地建立VCBH作为一个可持续的研究卓越中心与地方，国家， 国际影响力。
