Pediatric Injury Research Training Program

描述(由申请人提供)：这是一份关于儿科损伤研究培训计划的建议。培训计划的目标是建立和维持一支受过跨学科培训的调查人员团队，他们将对如何减少伤害造成的损失进行严格的研究。这一培训计划的具体目标是：(1)从国家申请者库中招聘优秀研究员，同时关注临床和学术背景、社会经济地位、种族、民族和性别的多样性。(2)为学员提供平衡的伤害控制和理论课程，以及研究方法技能(特别是生物统计学、流行病学、卫生经济学和卫生服务)，并介绍对跨学科研究重要的非临床学科。(3)营造一个有导师的培训环境，这些导师不仅提供实际和相关的研究经验，而且作为受训人员的教师、研究人员和临床医生的榜样，并可以帮助受训人员在受训计划之外进行安置，以支持职业发展。培训将包括5个部分：(1)正式的教学课程，以填补以前学术培训的空白，进行伤害控制研究，并提供与伤害研究相关的学科。(2)参加研究金赞助的研讨会，包括每周小组研究研讨会、为期12周的生物医学诚信研究研讨会系列、关于行为和健康的研讨会系列、科学写作的正式培训和赠款编写的正式培训。(3)有机会参加一年一度的全国伤害控制会议和另一次以其主要研究领域的学科为重点的全国会议。(4)在威斯康星大学及其合作地点的跨学科教员小组的指导下，在其中一个培训单位进行积极的、正在进行的研究计划的深入研究培训。(5)在一个或多个核心教师导师的监督下，开发和实施伤害研究的研究项目，以实现以下目标：a.发展作为伤害控制研究的独立调查者的职业生涯所需的研究技能，b.在伤害控制研究的重点领域发展专门知识。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a proposal for a Pediatric Injury Research Training Program. The goal of the Training Program is to create and sustain a corps of interdisciplinary-trained investigators who will conduct rigorous research on ways to reduce the toll from injuries. The specific aims of this training program are to: (1) Recruit outstanding fellows from a national applicant pool with attention to diversity in clinical and academic backgrounds, socioeconomic status, race, ethnicity and gender. (2) Provide trainees with a well-balanced curriculum in injury control and theory along with methodologic skills in research (especially biostatistics, epidemiology, health economics and health services) and an introduction to non-clinical disciplines important to interdisciplinary research. (3) Foster a training environment with mentors who not only provide practical and relevant research experience but also serve as role models for the trainee as teachers, researchers, and clinicians and can assist the fellow with placement beyond the trainee program to support career development. There will be 5 components to the training: (1) Formal didactic courses to fill gaps in prior academic training to conduct research in injury control and to provide exposure to disciplines relevant to injury research. (2) Attendance at fellowship-sponsored seminars including weekly small group research seminars, a 12-week Biomedical Integrity in Research Seminar Series, a seminar series on behavior and health, formal training in scientific writing, and formal training in grant writing. (3) Opportunity to attend the annual national injury control meeting and one other national meeting focused on a discipline in their primary research area. (4) In depth research training in an active, on-going research program at one of the training units with mentoring from an interdisciplinary group of faculty at the UW and its collaborating sites. (5) Development and implementation of research projects in injury research, supervised by one or more of the core faculty mentors, to achieve the following goals: a. To develop the research skills necessary to initiate a career as an independent investigator in injury control research, b. To develop expertise in a focused area of injury control research.
