描述(由申请人提供)：华盛顿大学卫生服务部和药学院的卫生服务研究培训(HSRT)计划培养研究领导者，通过开展跨学科研究并在快速变化的医疗保健和社会政治环境中实施结果来改善不同人群的健康。该计划在全国和太平洋西北地区建设卫生服务研究能力，为占美国陆地面积27%的5个州提供服务。实习生。我们请求AHRQ NRSA T32支持10个插槽。我们要求在五年内每年提供6个博士后和1个博士后实习生名额，以进行广泛的卫生服务研究培训。我们还要求在五年内每年提供三个博士前时段，通过药学成果研究和政策博士项目(PORPP)进行比较有效性研究(CER)培训；这些受训人员还将获得新的大学范围的CER证书。我们招聘来自不同背景的高素质实习生，他们有潜力在卫生服务研究领域取得卓越的职业生涯。我们每年都会用一个名额来支持一名来自少数族裔的实习生。课程和指导。博士后实习生获得博士学位，博士后实习生获得硕士/公共卫生硕士学位或进行指导研究以供发表。以能力为基础的课程提供：1)卫生保健系统、卫生政策和人口健康的决定因素/差异的全面知识；2)关键学科的理论和研究方法方面的严格培训；3)通过在理论、内容和方法方面的密集准备，在重点领域提供专门知识；以及4)在组织内部以及与科学和非专业受众进行有效沟通方面的培训。学员在外部研究伙伴和威斯康星大学中心开展多学科的应用研究。强有力的指导产生与AHRQ优先事项一致的高质量研究，并促进将研究结果转化为政策和实践。评估和绩效。该方案建立了评估方案、评估数据审查流程和持续质量改进方法。华盛顿大学HSRT项目在培养高素质研究人员方面有着出色的记录，卫生服务和PORPP博士前实习生发表了348篇论文。华盛顿大学AHRQ博士前实习生校友100%继续从事医疗服务研究，在大学、医疗研究和政策组织、医疗行业或政府担任领导者和变革推动者的角色。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Health Services Research Training (HSRT) Program at the University of Washington in the Department of Health Services and the School of Pharmacy prepares research leaders to improve health in diverse populations by conducting interdisciplinary studies and implementing the results in a rapidly changing health care and social-political environment. The program builds capacity in health services research nationally and in the Pacific Northwest region, serving 5 states with 27% of the U.S. land mass. Trainees. We are requesting AHRQ NRSA T32 support for 10 slots. We request six predoctoral and one postdoctoral trainee slots per year for five years for broad-based training in health services research. We also request three predoctoral slots per year for five years for training in comparative effectiveness research (CER) through the Pharmaceutical Outcomes Research & Policy Doctoral Program (PORPP); these trainees also will obtain a new, university-wide Certificate in CER. We recruit highly qualified trainees from different backgrounds who have the potential for an outstanding career in health services research. We have used one of our slots each year to support a trainee from a minority group. Curriculum and Mentorship. Predoctoral trainees obtain a PhD and postdoctoral trainees obtain an MS/MPH or conduct mentored research for publication. The competency-based curriculum provides: 1) comprehensive knowledge of the health care system, health policy and the determinants/disparities of population health; 2) rigorous training in the theory and research methods of key disciplines; 3) expertise in an area of emphasis through intensive preparation in theory, content, and methods; and 4) training in effective communication within organizations and with scientific and lay audiences. Trainees carry out applied, multidisciplinary research at external research partners and UW centers. Strong mentorship produces high quality research aligned with AHRQ priorities and facilitates the translation of findings into policy and practice. Evaluation and Performance. The program has established evaluation protocols, a process for review of evaluation data, and a continuous quality improvement approach. The University of Washington HSRT program has an excellent record of producing highly qualified researchers, with Health Services and PORPP predoctoral trainees publishing 348 papers. 100 percent of AHRQ predoctoral trainee alumni at the University of Washington have continued on in health services research with roles as leaders and change agents in universities, health research and policy organizations, the health care industry or government.
