Child Intervention, Prevention and Services Research Mentoring Network

 描述(由申请人提供)：这份R-25申请书建议竞争性地更新儿童精神干预预防和服务(CHIP)领域的多地点、跨学科指导计划。CHIPS计划面向准备撰写他们在儿童精神障碍干预、预防或服务领域的第一份NIMH职业发展或项目补助金的博士后实习生和初级教师。它将为期一周的暑期培训与随后至少一年的密集指导相结合，提供额外的基于网络的视频，学习与这些目标相关的重要主题，并在导师的指导下扩大学员的专业网络。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，减少成功获得外部资金的时间；以及(3)培养能够进行跨越干预、预防和服务研究界限的研究人员，并利用翻译和发展科学的进步提供信息。为期一周的暑期学院非常强调体验式练习和辅导。它的重点是帮助学员获得准备下一次拨款申请所需的全面技能。CHIPS的教职员工拥有成功的指导记录，共同跨越了干预、预防和服务研究的广度，因此可以促进为计划参与者开发比任何单一培训地点更广泛的培训视角。在这次更新过程中，我们将把当前和额外的教学内容转移到一个灵活的基于网络的系统，使内容广泛而免费地提供。由于我们的学院方法专注于通过关注学员的下一次拨款申请来指导他们，帮助他们获得撰写竞争性补助金所需的技能，我们将试验多路视频会议方法，看看我们的个性化培训的这一方面是否可以通过远程通勤而不是旅行更经济地复制。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This R-25 application proposes a competitive renewal of a multi-site, interdisciplinary mentoring program in the field of child psychiatric intervention prevention, and services (CHIPS). The CHIPS program targets post-doc trainees and entry-level faculty preparing to write their first NIMH career development or project grant in the area o intervention, prevention or services for child psychiatric disorders. It combines a one-week summer institute with a minimum of one subsequent year of intensive mentoring, additional web-based videos learning on important topics related to these goals, and mentor-guided expansion of the trainee's professional network. 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 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. The one-week summer institute strongly emphasizes experiential exercises and mentoring. It is focused on helping trainees acquire the full range of skills needed to prepare their next grant application. The CHIPS faculty have a record of successful mentoring and together 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. Over the course of this renewal we will move current and additional didactics to a flexible web-based system to make the content widely and freely available. Because our Institute approach concentrates on mentoring individual trainees by focusing on their next grant application, helping them gain the skills necessary to write a competitive grant, we will experiment with multi-way video conferencing approaches to see if this aspect of our individualized training can be more economically replicated by telecommuting rather than travel.
