T32 Training Grant in Epidemiology, Services and Prevention Research

请参阅说明)： 这个NIDA T32，在它的第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 和博士后研究员在药物滥用流行病学、服务和预防领域发展 明确应用于实践和公共政策的科学知识。该计划很小，只有1个Pre Doc 在第7年期间获得2个Post Doc职位(第8年又获得1个)。它已支持12个帖子 Docs和4个Pre Docs。续签的理由是：a)缺乏药物滥用科学家 需要立即促进公共卫生，b)有才华和资金的科学家 关于指导下一代成瘾科学家，c)成功的实习生，d)优秀的学者 环境和e)一个响应NIDA培训任务的方案。教职员工隶属于8个 华盛顿大学3个学院的系。此外，Mark Gold博士(佛罗里达大学)，以及 密苏里州心理健康研究所的吉姆·托波尔斯基博士也参与其中。这款T32的教职员工参与了 NIH临床和转化科学奖(CTSA)路线图，该奖项正在将业务转变为 这是一个新的公共卫生研究所的主要推动力，它将提供更多的机会 对于这台T32。这个项目显然有别于大学里的所有其他项目，但又与其他项目融合在一起，创造了 丰富的协作环境。根据需求，以及我们不重新提交NIMH T32的决定，我们 请求1个文档前(无更改)和4个文档后插槽(额外1个)。我们的NIDA T32的重点是：(I)火车 有才华的跨学科科学家将成为药物滥用流行病学和服务的独立研究人员 和预防科学，或培训来自其他领域的科学家，他们将把这些领域的知识整合到 他们的田地；(Ii)严重短缺领域的培训，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；(三)为学员提供学徒式培训 教育掌握批判性评估数据的技能，进行药物滥用研究的多方面，以及 成为成功的、独立的调查人员；以及(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(请参阅说明)： 这项计划旨在通过培养下一代科学家来改善国家的公共健康。这个 该计划整合了跨学科的方法，以解决与药物使用、滥用和 上瘾。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 我们地区训练有素的专业人士。

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.
