Child Intervention Prevention and Services Summer Research Institute

描述（由申请人提供）：此R-25申请要求第二个五年的资金，以支持正在进行的，成功的五站点，儿童干预预防和服务心理健康研究（CHIPS）的跨学科培训联盟。每年，CHIPS项目都会为16名早期职业科学家（博士后研究员或初级教员）提供新的团队，通过每年5天的密集夏季研究机构，以及随后一年的密集一对一电话和面对面指导，为他们提供职业发展和指导。该计划的总体目标是：(1)招募和留住有前途的早期职业科学家，从事儿童和青少年心理健康干预、预防和服务研究；(2)提高他们的成功率，减少成功获得外部NIH资助的时间；(3)培养能够进行跨越干预、预防和服务研究边界的研究的研究人员，并通过转化和发展科学的进步获得信息。我们将通过监测学术生产力（以出版物、外部资金和学术进步为衡量标准）来评估CHIPS的持续影响。该应用程序支持一个由5个站点组成的培训联盟：匹兹堡大学（协调站点，Neal Ryan，医学博士和David Brent，医学博士），亚利桑那州立大学（Irwin Sandler，博士），圣地亚哥雷迪儿童医院（John Landsverk，博士），约翰霍普金斯大学（Phil Leaf，博士和Nicholas Ialongo博士）和加州大学洛杉矶分校（Bonnie Zima，医学博士，公共卫生硕士）。这些网站都参与了当前的CHIPS计划，并在帮助早期职业科学家发展独立研究事业方面取得了成功的记录。总的来说，它们跨越了干预、预防和服务研究的广度，因此可以为项目参与者提供比任何单一培训场所更广阔的培训视角。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This R-25 application requests a second five years of funding to support an ongoing, successful five-site, interdisciplinary training consortium in Child Intervention Prevention, and Services mental health research (CHIPS). Each year the CHIPS program provides a new cohort of sixteen early career scientists who are postdoctoral fellows or junior faculty, with career enhancement and direction through an annual 5-day intensive summer research institute and then a subsequent year of intensive one-on-one telephone and in-person mentoring with one of the institute faculty. The overarching goals of this program are to: (1) recruit and retain promising early career scientists to child and adolescent mental health intervention, prevention, and services research; (2) increase their success rate and decrease the time to successful acquisition of external NIH funding; and (3) prepare researchers who can conduct research that spans the boundaries of intervention, prevention, and services research and that is informed by advances in translational and developmental science. We will evaluate the ongoing impact of CHIPS by monitoring academic productivity as measured by publications, external funding, and academic advancement. This application supports a training consortium of 5 sites: University of Pittsburgh (the coordinating site, Neal Ryan, M.D. and David Brent, M.D.), Arizona State University (Irwin Sandler, Ph.D.), Rady Children's Hospital, San Diego (John Landsverk, Ph.D.), Johns Hopkins University (Phil Leaf, Ph.D. and Nicholas Ialongo Ph.D.), and University of California, Los Angeles (Bonnie Zima, M.D., MPH). These sites all participated in the current CHIPS program and have successful track records in helping early career scientists develop independent research careers. Collectively, they span the breadth of intervention, prevention, and services research, and thus can promote the development of a broader training perspective to program participants than any single training site. Public Health Relevance: Improved prevention and treatment of major psychiatric disorders in youth is a national priority. This R25 targets the critical transition of postdoctoral fellows and junior faculty without funding to successfully funded researcher through a successful Summer Research Institute and subsequent year-long mentoring process. Our career development approach is based on the model of other successful Summer Research Institutes that target researchers studying adults and geriatric populations but modified to give greater time to small-group and one-on-one mentoring with many of the most senior researchers in this field.
