Research Training: Self and Family Management

描述（由申请人提供）：这个博士后前和博士后培训计划的目的是准备护士研究人员为慢性疾病或其发展风险的自我和家庭管理科学做出贡献。必须有一支强大的护士科学家队伍，他们可以为这一关键领域的研究做出贡献。这个竞争性的延续申请建立在我们在第1-4年的成功以及我们的弱势群体自我和家庭管理中心的基础上。博士预科课程为初级研究人员提供必要的知识和技能，以了解自我管理，并为患有慢性疾病或有发展风险的患者开发和测试护理干预措施。它建立在我们的博士课程的基础上，增加了慢性病的自我和家庭管理的内容，各自临床领域的研究，与该领域的各种研究人员的研究经验，以及通过同源进行深入研究的机会。共有20名学员将获得资助，每人为期2-3年。博士后培训将使研究人员准备进行更复杂的研究，涉及跨学科的观点和/或需要复杂的分析技术。博士后研究员将与经验丰富的教师研究人员一起进行正在进行的研究，参加大学各个中心的跨学科博士后培训计划，并为校外资助提出建议。本项目共资助20名博士后，每人资助两年。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The purpose of this pre- and postdoctoral training program is to prepare nurse researchers to contribute to the science of self and family management of chronic conditions or the risk for their development. It is imperative that a strong cadre of nurse scientists be available who can contribute to this key area of inquiry. This competing continuation application builds on our success in years 1-4 as well as our Center for Self and Family Management for Vulnerable Populations. The predoctoral program prepares the beginning researcher with the knowledge and skills necessary to understand self-management and to develop and test nursing interventions for patients with chronic conditions or at risk for their development. It builds on our PhD program by adding content in self and family management of chronic illness, research in respective clinical areas, and experience in research with a variety of researchers working in the field, and the opportunity for in-depth study via cognates. A total of 20 trainees will be supported, each for up to 2-3 years. Postdoctoral training will prepare investigators to conduct more complex studies involving an interdisciplinary perspective and/or the need for sophisticated analytic techniques. Postdoctoral fellows will work with experienced faculty researchers on ongoing studies, participate in interdisciplinary postdoctoral training programs in Centers across the University, and develop proposals for extramural funding. A total of 20 postdoctoral fellows will be supported during the project, each for two years.
