The Unviersity of Michigan Injury Center

描述(由申请人提供)：密歇根大学伤害中心是一个综合性的红十字委员会，它整合了各个年龄段的伤害预防和控制的所有阶段。该中心得到了密歇根大学(UM)、韦恩州立大学(WSU)和密歇根州立大学(MSU)丰富的(中西部独一无二的)教育、研究、外联和政策资源的补充，这些大学的伤害教职员工和从业者准备好应对密歇根和大湖区的伤害负担。该中心在开展伤害研究、推广和翻译以及培养下一代伤害科学家和从业者方面拥有十多年的经验。该中心的使命是进行高质量的研究和培训，将科学发现转化为 将其落实到实践和政策中，减少伤害、暴力和相关的残疾--特别是在弱势群体中。拟议的中心围绕四个多学科核心(政策工作组的行政、外联和翻译、培训和教育以及统计和方法科的研究)、四个研究项目和一个探索性研究资助计划组成，涉及密歇根大学、西澳州立大学和密歇根州立大学14个系的教职员工。研究拨款的重点是将经过验证的预防计划转化为实践，评估当前伤害预防政策的有效性，影响疾控中心重点领域的干预计划，如青少年驾驶伤害，以及一个新兴的重点领域：预防意外药物过量和中毒。其他活动侧重于刺激研究，包括统计援助、探索性赠款计划，以及鼓励和支持访问二级数据集进行研究，如机动车碰撞数据。该中心将继续扩大我们的资金基础，以实现扩张。我们将继续教授和指导本科生、研究生和博士后以及跨学科的初级教师，包括医学、公共卫生、行为和社会科学、生物统计学、生物力学、流行病学、法律、刑事司法和政策。此外，我们将利用中心的社交媒体专业知识和存在，就将研究转化为实践提供外联、技术援助和咨询，以建立一个充满活力的在线社区。该中心支持中西部伤害预防联盟，为促进暴力和伤害研究中心理事会服务，并为服务于密歇根州的协调和协作伤害预防议程提供框架，在整个大湖区都有积极的影响。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Michigan Injury Center is a comprehensive ICRC that integrates all phases of injury prevention and control across the spectrum of age groups. The Center is supplemented by the vast (and unique in the Midwest) educational, research, outreach and policy resources of the University of Michigan (UM), Wayne State University (WSU) and Michigan State University (MSU), whose injury faculty and practitioners are ready to address the burden of injury in Michigan and the Great Lakes Region. The Center has more than a decade of experience in conducting injury research, outreach and translation, and educating the next generation of injury scientists and practitioners. The mission of the Center is to conduct high-quality research and training, to translate scientific discoveries into practice and policy, and to reduce injuries, violence and related disabilities--particularly among vulnerable populations. The proposed Center is organized around four multidisciplinary cores (Administrative, Outreach & Translation with a Policy Workgroup, Training & Education, and Research with a Statistics & Methods Section), four research projects, and an exploratory research grant program involving faculty from 14 departments at the UM, WSU and MSU. The research grants focus on translating proven prevention programs into practice, evaluation of the effectiveness of current injury prevention policies, intervention programs to impact CDC focus areas, such as teen driving injury, and an emerging area of focus: preventing unintentional drug overdoses and poisonings. Other activities focus on stimulating research, including statistical assistance, an exploratory grants program, and encouraging and enabling access of secondary datasets for research, such as motor vehicle crash data. The Center will continue to broaden our funding base to enable expansion. We will continue teaching and mentoring undergraduate, graduate and postdoctoral students, as well as junior faculty across disciplines, including medicine, public health, behavioral and social sciences, biostatistics, biomechanics, epidemiology, law, criminal justice and policy. In addition, we will provide outreach, technical assistance and consultation on translating research into practice using the Center's social media expertise and presence to build a dynamic online community. The Center supports the Midwest Injury Prevention Alliance, serves on The Society for Advancement of Violence and Injury Research council of centers and provides the framework for a coordinated and collaborative injury prevention agenda serving Michigan with active reach throughout the Great Lakes Region.
