Training in Epidemiology and Clinical Trials (TECT)

超出所提供的空间。正如医学研究所所指出的那样，一群训练有素的临床研究人员致力于避孕研究是至关重要的。然而，很少有学术产科医生/妇科医生接受过研究方法的正式培训，研究培训目前供不应求！rfai题为产科医生和妇科医生流行病学和临床试验的机构培训旨在帮助满足这一需求。该提案联合了三家从事妇女健康研究的世界知名机构的工作人员和项目。北卡罗来纳大学医学院和公共卫生学院、杜克大学医学院和杜克临床研究所以及家庭健康国际之间的伙伴关系将提供无与伦比的培训机会。北卡罗来纳大学的谢普斯健康服务研究中心将作为培训计划的协调中心；该中心在杜克大学和北卡罗来纳大学之间的其他联合培训项目中发挥着这一作用。国际家庭健康组织是美国在避孕研究和开发方面最重要的非营利组织之一，它在50多个国家拥有一个由合作科学家组成的国际网络。该提案的PI是医学博士David A. Grimes，他在FHI、UNC和Sheps中心担任联合任命。他的职业研究重点是计划生育。Katherine Hartmann，医学博士，将担任PD，她在妇产科和流行病学部门以及Sheps中心担任联合任命。谘询委员会由参与院校的资深学术及研究领袖组成。我们召集了一群杰出的导师，他们是避孕和妇女健康相关领域的知名调查人员。所有受训者都将在北卡罗来纳大学流行病学系完成公共卫生硕士学位，重点是临床试验方法。考虑到学术项目的实力，在妇产科和流行病学方面接受过双重培训的教师数量，以及参与机构之间富有成效的合作遗产，该项目具有培养下一代避孕研究人员的独特资格。网站性能 ======================================== 节结束 ===========================================

EXCEED THE SPACE PROVIDED. As noted by the Institute of Medicine, a pool of well-trained clinical investigators dedicated to contraceptive research is fundamentally important. However,few academic obstetrician/gynecologists have received formal training in research methods, and the demand for research training currently exceeds the supply! The RFAentitled Institutional Training in Epidemiology and Clinical Trials for Obstetricians and Gynecologists is designed to help meet this need. This proposal unites the staff and programs of three world-renowned institutions engaged in women's health research. The partnership between the Schools of Medicine and Public Health at the Universityof North Carolina, Duke University School of Medicine and the Duke Clinical Research Institute, and Family Health International will provide unparalleled training opportunities. The Sheps Center for HealthServices Research at UNC will serve as the coordinating center for the training program; the Center servesthis role in other joint training programs between Duke and UNC. Family Health International is one of the nation's premier non-profit organizations in contraceptive research and development, and it has an international network of collaborating scientists in more than 50 countries. The PI for this proposal is David A. Grimes, M.D., who holds joint appointments at FHI, UNC, and the Sheps Center. His career research focus has been family planning. Katherine Hartmann, M.D., Ph.D., will serve as the PD, and she holds joint appointments in the Departments of Obstetrics and Gynecology and Epidemiology, as well as the Sheps Center. TheAdvisory Committee is composed of senior academic and research leaders from the participating institutions. We have assembled an outstanding group of mentors, who are established investigators in contraception and related areas of women's health. All trainees will complete an M.P.H. in the Department of Epidemiology at UNC, with an emphasis on clinical trials methodology. Given the strength of the academic programs, the number of faculty with dual training both in obstetrics and gynecology and epidemiology, and the legacy of productive collaboration between the participating institutions, this program is uniquely qualified to train the next generation of researchers in contraception.
