QMRA III-定量微生物风险评估(QMRA)跨学科 教学学院 项目摘要/摘要 定量微生物风险评估(QMRA)是一个不断发展的多学科领域，包括 解决微生物病原体和传染病暴露的QMRA的正式程序 流程。QMRA在人类健康风险衡量方面比 传统的流行病学方法，并已成为广泛接受的框架 研究水质和食物。位于数学、生物学、工程学和 政策，风险评估是一种复杂但非常有用的方法，适用于各种 疾病的情景。风险评估促进了公共卫生、应急响应、 环境控制措施、净化、工业卫生和医疗 对策。风险分析还必须包括风险沟通和风险感知 以了解应采取哪些风险缓解决策。 尽管QMRA方法很有用，但很少有生物或社会科学家接受过这方面的培训 处理或具有足够的统计和定量技能来进行此类分析，几乎没有QMRA工具 或者，模特可以提供给缺乏建模技能的人。同样，很少有统计学家或建模师 拥有必要的社会科学技能，以充分解决人类行为问题， 影响对病原体的暴露，或对实际或感知的健康风险的反应。 我们将提供QMRA培训，以加强与这些关键字相关的多学科研究 通过为期两周的强化短期课程，熟练程度和知识差距：(1)提供 提供识别和量化风险的培训；(2)提供风险认知和风险评估培训 交流；(3)开发学习QMRA的工具和课程，并免费提供； 以及(4)开发和发布新的全球和临床新病原体风险分析 意义。 QMRA III建立在成功的为期一周的强化课程的基础上，该课程每年由 2006年至2011年期间，美国微生物风险评估中心(CAMRA)。它的应用 为来自不同背景的学生提供实用的动手培训，增强了参与者的能力 在他们的工作中使用QMRA。QMRA III将为生物医学和行为科学家提供培训 以及高度可信的定量微生物风险评估所需的工具，支持 关于新出现的病原体和疾病预防的循证公共卫生政策。

QMRA III - Quantitative Microbial Risk Assessment (QMRA) Interdisciplinary Instructional Institute Project Summary/Abstract Quantitative microbial risk assessment (QMRA) is a growing multidisciplinary field consisting of a formal process for .QMRA addressing exposures to microbial pathogens and infectious disease processes. QMRA provides greater sensitivity in human health risk measurement than conventional epidemiological approaches, and has become a widely accepted framework for the study of water quality and food. Lying at the confluence of mathematics, biology, engineering, and policy, risk assessment is a complex but highly useful approach applicable to a wide variety of disease scenarios. Risk assessment advances decision science in public health, emergency response, environmental control measures, decontamination, industrial hygiene, and medical countermeasures. Risk analyses must also include risk communication and risk perception in order to know which risk mitigation decisions to take. Despite the utility of the QMRA approach, few biological or social scientists are trained in this process or have sufficient statistical and quantitative skills for such analyses, and few QMRA tools or models are available to people lacking modeling skills. Similarly, few statisticians or modelers possess the necessary social science skills to adequately address issues of human behavior that affect exposure to pathogenic agents, or responses to real or perceived health risks. We will provide QMRA training to enhance multidisciplinary research associated with these key proficiency and knowledge gaps through a two week, intensive short course that will: (1) provide training in identifying and quantifying risk; (2) provide training in risk perception and communication; (3) develop tools and lessons for learning QMRA and make them freely available; and (4) develop and publish novel risk analyses of emerging pathogens of global and clinical significance. QMRA III builds upon a successful week-long intensive course that was conducted annually by the Center for Advancing Microbial Risk Assessment (CAMRA) from 2006 to 2011. Its application of practical, hands-on training to students from diverse backgrounds enhanced participants' ability to use QMRA in their work. QMRA III will equip biomedical and behavioral scientists with training and tools necessary for highly credible quantitative microbial risk assessments, supporting evidence-based public health policies regarding emerging pathogens and disease prevention.
