Washington University Psychiatry Residency Research Education Program

项目摘要/摘要 尽管在过去的十年里，整个NIH企业的资金都在增加，但选择医生培训的人越来越少 追求科学事业，导致能够实现以下目标的内科科学家数量下降 独立研究的成功。为了满足劳动力需求，华盛顿精神病学系 该大学于2016年启动了精神病学住院医师研究教育计划(PRREP)。由NIMH‘s资助 R25计划2017年，PRREP与之前的研究经验无关，对我们的普通医生和儿童都适用 和青少年精神病学(CAP)培训计划，并提供个性化的教育规划 分成两个阶段。第一阶段旨在通过以下方式增加考虑从事研究职业的新居民的数量 加强招聘和提供早期教育(职业咨询/辅导、教学、研讨会、在线 课程)和介绍性研究经验。研究密集度更高的第二阶段侧重于获得 在关键领域的经验，包括研究设计、监管考虑、预算编制、数据 收集/管理和分析。实践研究的总时间约为12个月 对于四年普通成人方案的住院医师和正在接受五年培训的CAP住院医师13个月。 在第一期资助期间，我们的PRREP毕业生是一个不同的个人群体(10%残疾， 13%的西班牙裔，13%的非裔美国人，42%的女性)，我们的毕业生人数翻了一番 从事研究工作(50%拥有博士学位)。我们的PRREP实习生已被列为101手稿的作者 泰晤士报。在此续订申请中，我们寻求NIMH R25计划的持续支持，以在早期进行扩展 我们通过这一关键计划取得的成功，建立在我们已经建立的坚实基础上 在这头4年里。在这份续期申请中，我们建议继续招募有前途的学员到 PRREP，提供早期和有重点的指导和实践研究经验，以促进发展 成功过渡到第二阶段所需的技能和知识。在已取得的成功的基础上再接再厉 在最初的资助期内，我们将重点关注以下目标：1)我们将以招募个人为目标 对CAP研究事业感兴趣，及早接触CAP教师，并加强对 2)利用机构培训和支持资源，我们将在以下方面促进卓越 通过在整个学年为导师提供反馈，并提供导师培训和 对具有新兴指导技能的早期职业教师提供支持；以及3)通过最初4年的资助， 我们将制定、实施和跟踪针对成为 成功的首席调查员。未来5年的资金将为我们提供在此基础上再接再厉的手段 基金会继续为下一代医生提供创新和包容性的研究培训- 精神病学的科学家。

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT Despite increased funding across the NIH enterprise over the past decade, fewer physician trainees are choosing to pursue scientific careers, contributing to a decline in the number of physician-scientists capable of achieving independent research success. To address the workforce needs, the Department of Psychiatry at Washington University launched the Psychiatry Resident Research Education Program (PRREP) in 2016. Funded by NIMH’s R25 program in 2017, PRREP is agnostic of prior research experience, is available to both our general and child and adolescent psychiatry (CAP) training programs, and provides individualized educational planning divided into two phases. Phase 1 aims to increase the number of incoming residents considering a research career by enhancing recruitment and providing early education (career counseling/mentoring, didactics, seminars, on-line coursework) and introductory research experiences. The more research-intensive Phase 2 focuses on gaining experience in key areas, including study design, regulatory considerations, budgeting, data collection/management, and analysis. Total time spent in hands-on research will be approximately 12 months for a resident in the 4-year general adult program and 13 months for a CAP resident who is in training for 5 years. During this first period of funding, our PRREP graduates have been a diverse group of individuals (10% disabled, 13% Hispanic, 13% African American, 42% female) and we have doubled the number of graduates pursuing research careers (50% with a Ph.D.). Our PRREP trainees have been listed as an author on manuscripts 101 times. In this renewal application we seek on-going support from NIMH’s R25 program to expand on the early successes we have achieved with this critical program, building upon the solid foundation we have established in these first 4 years. In this renewal application, we propose to continue to recruit promising trainees into PRREP, providing early and focused mentorship and hands-on research experiences to promote development of skills and knowledge necessary for successful transition to Phase 2. To build upon the success achieved during the initial funding period, we will focus on the following goals: 1) we will target recruitment of individuals interested in CAP research careers, provide early exposure to CAP faculty and enhance the mentorship of trainees interested in CAP; 2) utilizing institutional training and support resources, we will promote excellence in mentorship by providing mentors feedback throughout the academic year, and provide mentorship training and support for early-career faculty with emerging mentoring skills; and 3) informed by the initial 4 years of funding, we will develop, implement and track educational milestones targeting research skills needed to become a successful principal investigator. Funding for the next 5 years will provide us with the means to build on this solid foundation to continue providing innovative and inclusive research training for the next generation of physician- scientists in psychiatry.
