项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Halting and reversing upward secular trends in body weight in the US is an important medical and public health challenge. Additional skilled researchers in obesity prevention are much needed, but training programs are few. Obesity is a complex disorder that has multiple causes and multiple potential strategies for prevention and treatment. The present proposal is for a training grant called the Minnesota Obesity Prevention Training (MnOPT) program. Its goal is to provide multidisciplinary training for a new generation of obesity prevention scientists. The proposed training program would have three training tracks: basic science, behavioral epidemiology, and clinical. The MnOPT program will provide training for predoctoral, postdoctoral, and medical fellows. There will be 6 training slots: 3 predoctoral and 3 postdoctoral fellows. Robert Jeffery, professor in Epidemiology and Community Health, is the Program Director. Catherine Kotz, professor in the Department of Food Science and Nutrition, and Charles Billington, professor in Medicine, are the Codirectors. Dr. Billington will oversee the clinical science, Dr. Kotz the basic science, and Dr. Jeffery the behavioral epidemiology training. There are 36 participating faculty with active research programs who will serve as mentors in these areas. Trainees will be exposed to research and training in each of these fields. Trainees will complete a research projects, publish manuscripts, complete a core curriculum, attend journal clubs and seminars, and receive training in grant writing, research ethics and career development. The training arms will ensure that the diverse disciplines engaged in obesity research are well represented and there is cross-fostering between arms to fulfill the need for transdisciplinary training. The University of Minnesota and affiliated research facilities are uniquely qualified to host this training grant. As a large research university with Schools of Public Health, Medicine, Agriculture, NIH-supported Comprehensive Obesity and Obesity Prevention Centers, and a General Clinical Research Center, the University of Minnesota has the resources to provide trainees with a broad training experience in research ranging from basic mechanisms underlying obesity development to clinical and behavioral strategies to prevent obesity. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Obesity is a rapidly increasingly problem in the US that increases health care costs, reduces quality of life and reduces productivity of millions of Americans. It is one of the greatest threats to public health. Finding ways to stop increases in obesity and to and reverse current trends requires intensive scientific study. The proposed grant will provide the training necessary to fill this need.
描述(由申请人提供):在美国,阻止和扭转体重长期上升的趋势是一个重要的医学和公共卫生挑战。肥胖预防方面迫切需要更多熟练的研究人员,但培训计划很少。肥胖是一种复杂的疾病,有多种原因和多种潜在的预防和治疗策略。目前的建议是一项名为明尼苏达州肥胖预防培训(MnOPT)计划的培训赠款。其目标是为新一代肥胖预防科学家提供多学科培训。拟议的培训计划将有三个培训轨道:基础科学、行为流行病学和临床。该项目将为博士后、博士后和医学研究员提供培训。将有6个培训名额:3名博士后研究员和3名博士后研究员。流行病学和社区卫生教授罗伯特·杰弗里是该项目的主任。食品科学和营养学系教授凯瑟琳·科茨和医学教授查尔斯·比灵顿是联合主任。比灵顿博士将负责临床科学,科茨博士将负责基础科学,杰弗里博士将负责行为流行病学培训。有36名参与研究项目的教职员工将在这些领域担任导师。受训人员将接受上述每个领域的研究和培训。学员将完成研究项目,出版手稿,完成核心课程,参加期刊俱乐部和研讨会,并接受赠款撰写、研究道德和职业发展方面的培训。培训部门将确保从事肥胖研究的不同学科得到很好的代表,并在各部门之间进行交叉培养,以满足跨学科培训的需要。明尼苏达大学及其附属研究机构是唯一有资格主办这一培训赠款的机构。作为一所大型研究型大学,拥有公共卫生、医学、农业学院,NIH支持的综合肥胖和肥胖预防中心,以及综合临床研究中心,明尼苏达大学拥有资源,为学员提供广泛的研究培训经验,从肥胖发生的基本机制到预防肥胖的临床和行为策略。 与公共健康相关:肥胖在美国迅速成为一个日益严重的问题,它增加了医疗保健成本,降低了生活质量,并降低了数百万美国人的生产率。它是对公共健康的最大威胁之一。要想找到阻止肥胖增加、扭转当前趋势的方法,需要进行深入的科学研究。拟议的补助金将提供所需的培训,以满足这一需要。
