Harvard Education Program in Cancer Prevention Control

节目概要 哈佛癌症预防和控制教育项目，在其第24个年头，是一个动态的跨学科 合作，汇集了哈佛T.H.的广泛专业知识。陈冯富珍公共卫生学院 丹娜-法伯癌症研究所和丹娜-法伯/哈佛癌症中心，以及哈佛催化剂|哈佛 临床和转化科学中心。我们已经培训了116名（60名predoc，56名postdoc）研究员， 癌症预防和控制的跨学科方法，88%的学员目前持有研究- 专注的位置。在这次更新中，我们请求继续支持4名博士预科生和4名博士后 平均受训时间分别为4年和2年。总目标 该计划的目的是培养研究员成为下一代科学家，他们：（1）了解 癌症预防和控制科学的现状;（2）擅长跨学科研究;（3） 熟练地制定和撰写研究计划和科学手稿以供出版;（4）锚定 在支持持续专业发展和获取资源的同行和专业网络中， 将他们的知识转化为新的癌症研究领域。跨学科培训将进一步加强， 利用一个新的跨学科博士课程，在人口健康科学，整合培训五个 公共卫生学科，并通过建立一种新的指导方法-称为发展网络 - 从而创建了多样化的指导团队。我们还增加了新的跨学科培训指标， 我们的评估计划我们确定了5个重点领域，学员将在这些领域接受强有力的培训和研究 经验，包括：（1）癌症差异;（2）全球癌症预防;（3）实施科学;（4）健康 传播学;（5）人口健康学。强大和参与的内部和外部咨询 委员会和25个非常强大的导师与广泛的研究组合，确保该计划将继续下去 在癌症预防培训中蓬勃发展和创新。该计划的成熟性，广泛的可用资源 通过哈佛和协同作用的重点培训领域提供了一个出色的平台，培训下一个 一代癌症预防科学家。

Program Summary The Harvard Education Program in Cancer Prevention and Control, in its 24th year, is a dynamic transdisciplinary collaboration that brings together the extensive expertise of the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health, the Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and Dana-Farber/Harvard Cancer Center, and Harvard Catalyst |The Harvard Clinical and Translational Science Center. We have trained 116 (60 predoc, 56 postdoc) fellows in transdisciplinary approaches to cancer prevention and control, and 88% of trainees currently hold a research- focused position. In this renewal, we are requesting continued support for 4 predoctoral and 4 postdoctoral trainees each year who have an average length of training of 4 years and 2 years respectively. The overall goal of the Program is to train fellows to become the next generation of scientists who are: (1) knowledgeable about the current state of the science of cancer prevention and control; (2) skilled in transdisciplinary research; (3) skilled in formulating and writing research proposals and scientific manuscripts for publication; and (4) anchored in peer and professional networks that support continual professional development and access to resources to translate their knowledge into new cancer research areas. Transdisciplinary training will be further enhanced by leveraging a new transdisciplinary PhD program in Population Health Sciences that integrates training in five public health disciplines, and by instituting a new approach to mentorship – known as developmental networks – which creates diverse mentoring teams. We have also added new indicators of transdisciplinary training into our evaluation plan. We have identified 5 focal areas in which trainees will receive robust training and research experiences, including: (1) cancer disparities; (2) global cancer prevention; (3) implementation science; (4) health communication; and (5) population health science. Robust and engaged internal and external advisory committees, and 25 very strong mentors with extensive research portfolios ensure that the program will continue to thrive and innovate in cancer prevention training. The maturity of this Program, extensive resources available through Harvard and synergy across the focal training areas provide an outstanding platform for training the next generation of cancer prevention scientists.
