Pediatric Injury Research Training Program

 描述（由申请人提供）：华盛顿大学儿科伤害研究培训项目的目标是创建和维持一支受过跨学科培训的研究人员队伍，他们将对减少伤害造成的死亡进行严格的研究。博士后研究员将从各个学科招募，并通过指导研究经验，小组研讨会和华盛顿大学的研究生课程进行培训，以开发解决伤害控制所涵盖的广泛问题所需的分析和研究方法的强大背景。该培训计划的具体目标是：1。从全国申请人中招募和培训优秀研究员，注意临床和学术背景，社会经济地位，种族，民族和性别的多样性。2.为学员提供一个良好的平衡课程，在伤害控制沿着与研究方法的技能，特别是个人谁通常没有受过伤害研究培训。3.培养一个学习环境与导师谁不仅提供实际和相关的研究经验，但也作为榜样的受训者作为教师，研究人员和临床医生，并可以帮助与安置超出实习生计划，以支持职业发展的研究员。 为了满足对伤害研究培训的需求，我们为博士后MD，MD-PhD或博士生开发了一个独特的跨学科儿科伤害研究培训计划，该计划建立在我们强大而完善的Harborview伤害预防和研究中心计划的基础上。创伤中心有四个重点研究领域：创伤性脑损伤（TBI），特别关注青少年脑震荡;创伤护理，特别是对年龄范围两端的人;安全运输，特别关注年轻驾驶及其因酒精，毒品或电子设备分心而受到的损害;暴力，包括虐待儿童，亲密伴侣暴力和青少年暴力。 为了实现这些目标，我们有几个具体目标：1。从不同国家的申请人库中招募优秀的申请人。2.通过严格的研究生水平的核心课程提供方法知识和技能的广度。3.通过研究导师和重点研究项目提供知识和经验的深度。4.通过计划研讨会，工作进展会议和非正式的互动提供一个环境，通过被安置在一起在伤害中心。5.在有经验的研究人员和年轻的研究人员之间建立和维护学习和指导关系。6.持续监控每个人朝着既定里程碑的进展。准备一个成功的学术生涯研究员，包括赠款写作，赠款管理，研究的道德行为，合作研究，项目管理和职业导师。8.对项目本身进行“持续质量改进”。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the University of Washington Pediatric Injury Research Training Program is to create and sustain a cadre of interdisciplinary-trained investigators who will conduct rigorous research on reducing the toll from injuries. Postdoctoral fellows will be recruited from a variety of disciplines and trained through mentored research experiences, small group seminars, and graduate coursework at the University of Washington to develop a strong background in the analytic and research methodologies required to tackle the broad spectrum of issues encompassed by injury control. The specific aims of this training program are to: 1. Recruit and train 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 along with methodological skills in research, especially individuals who have typically not been trained in injury research. 3. Foster a learning 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. To meet the demand for training in injury research, we have developed a unique interdisciplinary Pediatric Injury Research Training Program for postdoctoral MD, MD-PhD, or PhD trainees that builds upon our strong and well-established Harborview Injury Prevention and Research Center program. The Injury Center has four focus areas of research: traumatic brain injury (TBI) with a special focus on concussions in youth; trauma care, especially for those at either end of the age spectrum; safe transport, with a special focus on young driving and their impairment by alcohol, drugs, or distracted by electronic devices; and violence, including child abuse, intimate partner violence, and youth violence. To achieve these aims, we have several specific objectives: 1. Recruit outstanding applicants from a diverse national applicant pool. 2. Provide breadth of methodological knowledge and skills through a rigorous graduate-level core curriculum. 3. Provide depth of knowledge and experience through research mentorship and focused research projects. 4. Provide an environment for peer interaction through program seminars, work-in-progress sessions, and informal interactions by virtue of being housed together at the Injury Center. 5. Establish and maintain learning and mentoring relationships between experienced researchers and young investigators. 6. Continuously monitor each fellow's progress toward defined milestones.7. Prepare fellows for a successful academic career, including grant writing, grant administration, the ethical conduct of research, collaborative research, project management, and career mentorship. 8. Engage in "continuous quality improvement" for the program itself.
