Cardiovascular Disease Epidemiology & Prevention

美国的卫生人力预测一直表明，训练有素的人才短缺 流行病学和预防领域的研究人员。这份为期五年的提案是为了续签 心血管疾病流行病学和预防方面的长期培训补助金由 明尼苏达大学流行病学和社区卫生学部。该计划具有高度的 成功，自1977年以来已有56名研究员毕业。在过去15年的毕业生中， 94%的人从事过研究工作，主要是在学术机构或 政府机构，62%获得了NIH或CDC的研究资金。培训计划的 一流的设施，庞大多样的教员队伍和广阔的研究机会提供了出色的培训 环境。我们的培训计划不断发展和完善，提供尖端的培训 有心血管疾病流行病学和预防方面的经验。 在最近一个时期(2014-2019年)，该项目获得了5名博士后和2名博士后 团契职位。所有职位都有人填补，我们继续有优秀的申请者。 研究员们卓有成效，出版了许多有用的出版物，并在国家和 国际会议。我们的续签建议(2019-2024年)是维持每年7个研究员职位 三年级博士后和四年级博士后。 明尼苏达大学的两到三年奖学金计划提供出色的培训 将直接研究经验与强大的正规课程和 研讨会。弱势受训人员的参与是该研究金的高度优先事项。独特性 培训的关键是其教职员工的奉献精神和现有研究的广度，从实验室到 社区。对合格心血管流行病学家的持续需求和该计划的 有案可查的成功证明了它的更新是合理的。

Health manpower projections for the United States consistently indicate a shortage of well-trained researchers in the fields of epidemiology and prevention. This five-year proposal is for renewal of a longstanding training grant in the epidemiology and prevention of cardiovascular disease held by the Division of Epidemiology & Community Health of the University of Minnesota. The program is highly successful, having graduated five dozen fellows since 1977. Among graduates in the past 15 years, 94 percent have had research careers, mostly in cardiovascular research at academic institutions or government agencies, and 62% have obtained NIH or CDC research funding. The training program's excellent facilities, large and diverse faculty, and broad research opportunities offer an outstanding training environment. Our training program has continued to evolve and improve, to offer a cutting-edge training experience in cardiovascular disease epidemiology and prevention. In the most recent period (2014-2019), the program was awarded five predoctoral and two postdoctoral fellowship positions. Positions have been filled throughout and we continue to have outstanding applicants. Fellows have been highly productive, generating many useful publications and presenting at national and international meetings. Our proposal for renewal (2019-2024) is to maintain seven fellowship positions per year – three postdoctoral and four predoctoral. The University of Minnesota two to three year fellowship program offers outstanding training opportunities in direct research experience combined with a strong curriculum of formal courses and seminars. The participation of disadvantaged trainees is a high priority for the fellowship. The uniqueness of the training is the commitment of its faculty and the breadth of existing research, from the laboratory to the community. The continued need for qualified cardiovascular epidemiologists and the program's documented success justify its renewal.
