T32 Training Grant in Epidemiology, Services and Prevention Research

参见说明）： 这个NIDA T32，在其第9个年头，继续使用强大的跨学科联系，在培训教师，医学博士和预科 以及药物滥用流行病学、服务和预防领域的博士后博士研究员， 科学知识，明确适用于实践和公共政策。程序很小，只有1个预文件 和2个博士后职位颁发通过第7年（1个以上是在第8年颁发）。支持12个岗位 4、预处理更新的理由是：a）缺乏药物滥用科学家， 需要立即推进公共卫生，B）有才华和资助的科学家谁是热情 关于指导下一代成瘾科学家，c）成功的学员，d）优秀的学术 环境和e）响应NIDA的训练使命的计划。学院隶属于8个 在华盛顿大学的三个学院的部门。此外，Mark Gold博士（佛罗里达大学）和 博士吉姆·托波尔斯基（密苏里州心理健康研究所）也参加了会议。T32上的教员参与了 NIH临床和转化科学奖（CTSA），这是改变业务， 通常;这是一个新的公共卫生研究所的主要动力，这将提供更多的机会 这款T32该计划显然不同于大学的所有其他计划，但与其他计划相融合， 丰富的协作环境。根据需求，以及我们决定不重新提交NIMH T32，我们 请求1个前置文件（无变化）和4个后置文件插槽（1个额外）。我们的NIDA T32的重点是：（一）火车 有才华的跨学科科学家成为药物滥用流行病学，服务 和预防科学，或培训来自其他领域的科学家，他们将这些领域的知识整合到 其领域;（二）培训严重短缺的领域，包括：人口科学，服务研究，传染病， 疾病、预防科学、健康差距和生物伦理学;（三）为学员提供学徒式的 教育，以掌握批判性评价数据的技能，进行药物滥用研究的多个方面， 成为成功的独立调查员;及（iv.）培训个人理解、应用和维护 最高的道德标准，并成为对社会负责的调查人员。 相关性（参见说明）： 该计划旨在通过培训下一代科学家来改善国家的公共卫生。的 该计划整合了跨学科的方法，以解决与药物使用，滥用和滥用有关的问题。 成瘾随着三分之一的学术研究人员在未来十年退休，对更多研究人员的需求非常强烈 专业人士在我们的领域。

See instructions): This NIDA T32, in its 9th year, continues to use strong interdisciplinary ties in training faculty, MDs and Pre and Post Doc PhD fellows in the areas of drug abuse epidemiology, services and prevention to develop scientific knowledge with clear application to practice and public policy. The Program is small with 1 Pre Doc and 2 Post Doc slots awarded through year 7 (1 more was awarded in year 8). It has supported 12 Post Docs and 4 Pre Docs. The rationale for renewing is based on: a) a shortage of drug abuse scientists who are needed to immediately advance the public health, b) talented and funded scientists who are enthusiastic about mentoring the next generation of addiction scientists, c) successful trainees, d) an excellent academic environment and e) a program responsive to NIDA's training mission. Faculty are affiliated with 8 Departments in 3 Schools at Washington University. Additionally, Dr. Mark Gold (University of Florida), and Dr. Jim Topolski (Missouri Institute of Mental Health) also participate. The faculty on this T32 are involved in the NIH Roadmap Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA), which is transforming business as usual; it was a major impetus for a new Institute for Public Health, which will provide even more opportunities for this T32. This program is clearly distinct from all others at the University, yet blends with others to create a rich collaborative environment. Based on demand, and on our decision not to resubmit an NIMH T32, we request 1 Pre Doc (no change) and 4 Post Doc slots (1 additional). The focus of our NIDA T32 is to: (i.) train talented interdisciplinary scientists to become independent researchers in drug abuse epidemiology, services and prevention science, or train scientists from other areas who will integrate knowledge of these areas into their fields; (ii.) train in serious shortage areas including: population science, services research, infectious diseases, prevention science, health disparities, and bioethics; (iii.) provide trainees with an apprentice-type education to master skills to critically evaluate data, conduct multiple aspects of drug abuse research and become successful, independent investigators; and (iv.) train individuals to understand, apply and maintain the highest ethical standards, and to be socially responsible investigators. RELEVANCE (See instructions): This program aims to improve the nation's public health by training the next generation of scientists. The program integrates interdisciplinary approaches to address problems related to drug use, misuse and addiction. With one third of academic researchers retiring in the next decade, the need is strong for more trained professionals in our area.
