CAM Research Training in Neuroscience & Stress

描述(由申请人提供)：CAM研究培训神经科学和压力T32计划将继续利用正在进行的跨机构合作，为培训基础和临床CAM研究人员提供一个多学科的环境。俄勒冈健康与科学大学正式提供培训补助金和大部分教职员工，但一些教职员工在俄勒冈州立大学莱纳斯·鲍林研究所、国家自然医学院和西部州立脊椎按摩学院有初级职位。CAM研究培训计划将建立在位于俄勒冈健康与科学大学的NIH资助的其他教育计划的基础上，并可获得许多优秀的核心资源，其中最重要的是，由临床和转换科学奖赞助的俄勒冈州临床和转换研究所。所资助的职位将是博士后研究员每年6个职位。博士后职位将向最近获得临床博士学位或博士学位的人开放，目标是大致相同数量的临床和基础科学研究人员。导师包括许多知名的研究人员，他们在CAM和神经科学或压力领域进行了资助研究。此外，还有一些不太成熟的CAM研究人员和成熟的非CAM研究人员将参与该计划。为了确保足够的指导，那些希望与这些教师一起进行研究的受训人员将被指派双重指导，以确保在与CAM相关的项目中进行高质量的研究。这一培训计划将延续俄勒冈州和俄勒冈州立大学CAM和神经科学社区之间的合作传统，这一传统导致了强大的研究和教育计划，并促进了跨部门、学校和机构的合作。T32项目的具体活动包括课程作业、重点期刊俱乐部和与导师实验室的深入研究培训。学员将学习科学写作，为每个人个性化的具体研究方法，并指导他们的职业规划。此外，来自这个项目的受训者将有能力与那些在神经科学或压力方面进行CAM研究的人进行互动，无论是在细胞、整个动物或人类的分析水平上，并理解科学文献。 来自所有这些地区。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The CAM Research Training in Neuroscience and Stress T32 program will continue to utilize ongoing cross- institutional collaborations to provide a multidisciplinary setting for training both basic and clinical CAM researchers. Oregon Health & Science University formally houses the training grant and most of the faculty, but some faculty have primary appointments at the Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University, the National College of Natural Medicine, and Western States Chiropractic College. The CAM research training program will build upon other NIH funded educational programs located at Oregon Health & Science University and has access to many excellent core resources including, most importantly, the Oregon Clinical and Translational Research Institute that is sponsored by a Clinical and Translational Science Award. The positions funded will be six positions per year for post-doctoral fellows. The post-doctoral positions will be open to people recently obtaining a clinical doctorate degree or a PhD, targeting approximately equal numbers of clinical and basic science researchers. The mentors include many established researchers who have done funded research in areas of CAM along with neuroscience or stress. There are additionally some less well-established CAM researchers and well-established non-CAM researchers who will be part of the program. To ensure adequate mentorship, those trainees wanting to do research with these faculty will be assigned dual mentors to ensure high quality research in a CAM-related project. This training program will continue the tradition of cooperation amongst the CAM and neuroscience community in Oregon and at OHSU that has led to strong research and educational programs and that fosters collaborations across departments, schools and institutions. The specific activities of the T32 program include coursework, a focused journal club and in depth research training with mentors' laboratories. Trainees will learn scientific writing, specific research methodologies individualized for each, and have guidance on their career planning. In addition, trainees coming from this program will have the ability to interact with those who do CAM research in neuroscience or stress, be it at the cellular, whole animal, or human level of analysis, and to understand the scientific literature from all of these areas.
