DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Society for Epidemiologic Research (SER) is the largest and oldest epidemiology society in the world with approximately 2000 members, 250 of whom are students. The society has held the same two simple and compelling missions since its founding: (1) foster epidemiologic research, and (2) connect students and new researchers with senior epidemiologists in a meaningful way. As a substantial part of its second main mission, SER has since 1977 continuously sponsored an annual workshop where doctoral-level students working on dissertations interact with senior epidemiologists and other graduate students, with the goal of improving the quality of their research. This 1.5-day in-depth student workshop includes 12 students who meet before the SER annual scientific meeting in June of each year. The workshop's purpose is to provide students with an opportunity to have their dissertation research reviewed, critiqued, and discussed in a supportive and constructive atmosphere by highly respected senior epidemiologists who are productive researchers and who have a variety of epidemiologic, clinical, and methodological expertise. Students enrolled in a doctoral degree program in epidemiology, who are working on any phase of their dissertation, from design to analysis, are eligible to participate in this workshop. Students will also receive training in cancer epidemiology and in the responsible conduct of research. SER endeavors to remove barriers to participation by underrepresented minority students, women, and students in need of family care while participating in the workshop. For twenty-five years the workshop was supported by an NCI-funded R25 award. This application seeks continued support of the SER Student Workshop for an additional five years. No other mechanism exists to provide this type of unique experience to doctoral-level epidemiologists. The workshop is chaired by the President-Elect of SER as a codified aspect of this elected officer's responsibilities. This codification further illustrates the society's commitment to connecting students with senior researchers, and its manifestation of this commitment through the workshop. The workshop will be co-Chaired by Timothy Lash, the PI of this application, who is an established cancer researcher, expert methodologist, and is currently the SER President-Elect. To provide continuity, Dr. Lash will for five years participate in all aspects of planning, organizing, and holding the workshop. He has directed doctoral programs in the US and abroad, has a track record of successfully training cancer epidemiologists, and has had two students receive the SER Student Prize. He is ideally suited to assuring that the SER student workshop continues in its unique role of training doctoral students in cancer epidemiology by providing external insights that shape their research.

简介（由申请人提供）：流行病学研究学会（SER）是世界上最大和最古老的流行病学学会，拥有大约2000名会员，其中250名是学生。该学会自成立以来一直肩负着两项简单而令人信服的使命：(1)促进流行病学研究；(2)以一种有意义的方式将学生和新研究人员与资深流行病学家联系起来。作为其第二个主要任务的重要组成部分，自1977年以来，SER连续举办年度研讨会，让博士级别的学生与高级流行病学家和其他研究生进行论文交流，目的是提高他们的研究质量。这个为期1.5天的深度学生研讨会包括12名学生，他们在每年6月的SER年度科学会议之前会面。研讨会的目的是为学生提供一个机会，让他们的论文研究在一个支持和建设性的氛围中由备受尊敬的高级流行病学家进行审查，批评和讨论，这些流行病学家是富有成效的研究人员，他们拥有各种流行病学，临床和方法学专业知识。就读于流行病学博士学位课程的学生，正在进行论文的任何阶段，从设计到分析，都有资格参加本次研讨会。学生还将接受癌症流行病学和负责任的研究行为方面的培训。SER努力消除少数族裔学生、妇女和需要家庭照顾的学生在参加研讨会时参与的障碍。25年来，该研讨会一直由nci资助的R25奖支持。此申请寻求SER学生工作坊额外五年的持续支持。没有其他机制可以为博士级别的流行病学家提供这种独特的经验。研讨会由社会服务局当选主席主持，作为该当选官员职责的一个成文方面。这进一步说明了协会致力于将学生与高级研究人员联系起来，并通过研讨会体现了这一承诺。本次研讨会将由Timothy Lash共同主持，他是本次申请的PI，他是一位成熟的癌症研究人员，专家方法学家，目前是SER当选总统。为了提供连续性，拉什博士将在五年内参与计划、组织和举办研讨会的各个方面。他在美国和国外指导博士课程，有成功培训癌症流行病学家的记录，并有两名学生获得SER学生奖。他非常适合通过提供外部见解来确保SER学生研讨会继续发挥其培养癌症流行病学博士生的独特作用
