Injury Control and Trauma Response

描述（由申请人提供）：作为世界上死亡和残疾的主要原因之一，人类创伤和伤害不成比例地影响所有国家的儿童和青少年。机动车辆碰撞造成的伤害是这种社会损害的一个主要例子。根据世界卫生组织的数据，全世界每年有2 000万至5 000万人因道路交通事故致残，120万人死亡。大多数受影响的人是年轻人，特别是男性。作为我们以前在查尔斯·麦克C的伤害预防研究工作的延续。小马蒂亚斯国家研究中心创伤和紧急医疗服务（NSC）和创伤复苏在R亚当斯考利休克创伤中心（休克创伤），这个国家研究服务奖（NRSA）机构研究培训补助金的目标是建立一个正式的计划，其中个人与医学博士，或者博士学位学位可以培养成为独立的调查人员在伤害控制和创伤反应研究。 该培训方案旨在使受训者能够：（1）掌握流行病学和生物统计学核心课程;（2）了解创伤和伤害预防的基本生物学和心理社会学方面;（3）成为至少一个与伤害控制和创伤反应有关的实质性领域的专家;（4）学会在具有伤害预防和控制方面专业知识的主要导师的监督下为研究团队做出贡献;（5）展示进行独立原创研究的能力。 考虑到马里兰州大学的专业知识深度，我们拥有一个理想的环境来合作开展这些教育工作。巴尔的摩的马里兰州大学国际公认的伤害控制研究和创伤复苏实践与我们优秀的流行病学和生物统计学教学计划相结合，为伤害预防和伤害控制的发展提供了出色的框架控制研究培训计划。拟议的项目将提供培训，使新的研究人员能够进行高质量的伤害控制和创伤反应研究，这有助于减少每年成千上万的创伤性伤害和死亡造成的破坏性影响。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): As one of the leading causes of death and disability in the world, human trauma and injury disproportionately affects children and young individuals in all countries. Injuries from motor vehicle collisions are a prime example of this damage to societies. According to the World Health Organization, road traffic accidents worldwide disable between 20 and 50 million individuals and kill 1.2 million people per year. The majority of individuals affected are young adults, especially men. As a continuation of our previous work in injury prevention research at the Charles McC. Mathias, Jr. National Study Center for Trauma and Emergency Medical Services (NSC) and in trauma resuscitation at R Adams Cowley Shock Trauma Center (Shock Trauma), the goal of this National Research Service Award (NRSA) institutional research training grant is to create a formal program wherein individuals with an M.D. or a Ph.D. degree can train to be independent investigators in injury control and trauma response research. This training program is designed to enable trainees to: (1) master a core curriculum in epidemiology and biostatistics; (2) become knowledgeable about the basic biological and psychosocial aspects of trauma and injury prevention; (3) become an expert in at least one substantive area relevant to injury control and trauma response; (4) learn to contribute to a research team under the supervision of a primary mentor with expertise in an aspect of injury prevention and control; and (5) demonstrate the capacity to conduct independent, original research. Considering the depth of expertise available at the University of Maryland, we have an ideal environment to collaborate on these educational efforts. The combination of University of Maryland at Baltimore's internationally recognized injury control research and trauma resuscitation practices in conjunction with our excellent didactic program in epidemiology and biostatistics provides an outstanding framework for the development of an injury prevention and injury control research training program. The proposed project will provide the training to enable new researchers to conduct high quality injury control and trauma response research that can help to reduce the devastating impact caused by tens of thousands of annual traumatic injuries and deaths.
