UCSD Integrated Cardiovascular Epidemiology Fellowship

项目总结/摘要 我们题为“流行病学和预防综合研究金”的T32培训赠款的目标是， “心血管疾病”是严格培训医生和行为科学家在流行病学和 行为研究方法侧重于预防心血管疾病，通过a）为受训者提供 综合，全面，密集的2年CVD预防研究培训经验和/或 行为医学，B）将受训者与经验丰富和敬业的导师联系起来，导师将监督 研究经验，并评估他们的进展和3）提供指导，这些学员在多个 研究过程的相关组成部分，包括流行病学和/或行为学的教学课程 医学、研究中对人类受试者的保护、保密要求、适当和 公正的数据分析，并在培训结束后，找到适当的地点，利用他们的 skills.该计划始于2007年，重点是流行病学和预防。期间 在第一个赠款期（2007 - 2012年），我们了解到，虽然所有受训人员都侧重于预防，但有些人 主要是流行病学的焦点，其他人对行为医学更感兴趣。为了充分 为这些不同兴趣的学员提供住宿，在目前的资助期内（2012 - 2017年），我们 改变了该计划的结构，将领导层扩大到两名联合主任，其中一人 在心血管流行病学相关的研究和指导方面拥有丰富的经验，另一位拥有 在心血管行为医学方面拥有类似深度的经验，同时保留副主任 这是自该计划成立以来一直存在的问题。在这一时期，我们扩大了 该计划的职位数量从4到5（2 predocs和3 postdocs）。对于本次更新（2017 - 2022年），我们建议保持相同的受训人数。除此之外，我们还建议修改 领导由于克里奇医生几年后就要退休了，为了平稳过渡，艾利森医生 （副主任）将承担Criqui博士担任的角色，Marcus博士将继续担任联合主任， 博士Criqui将继续担任该项目的高级副项目主任。所有董事均为 预防医学部在家庭和预防医学系的大学 加州圣地亚哥医学院。为了实现该计划的目标，教师提出了 该计划不仅从该部门招聘，而且还从该部门的其他几个部门招聘。 家庭和预防医学，以及其他部门在医学院，包括 医学和精神病学。同样，从圣地亚哥州立大学毕业生中招募了教师 公共卫生学院，在流行病学和健康行为方面都有教学计划。此外，本发明还提供了一种方法， 加州大学和圣地亚哥州立大学共同赞助了两个紧密相连的联合博士项目 公共卫生和临床心理学

PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The objective of our T32 training grant entitled “Integrated Fellowship on the Epidemiology and Prevention of Cardiovascular Disease" is to rigorously train physicians and behavioral scientists in epidemiologic and behavioral research methods focused on preventing cardiovascular diseases by a) providing trainees with an integrated, comprehensive, and intensive 2-year research training experience in CVD prevention and/or behavioral medicine, b) linking trainees with highly experienced and dedicated mentors who will supervise the research experience and evaluate their progress and 3) providing instruction to these trainees on multiple related components of the research process, including didactic coursework on epidemiology and /or behavioral medicine, protection of human subjects in research, confidentiality requirements, elements of appropriate and unbiased analysis of data, and, after the completion of training, finding the appropriate venue to utilize their skills. This program began in 2007 with a broadly defined focus on epidemiology and prevention. During the first grant period (2007 – 2012), we learned that while all trainees are focused on prevention, some have primarily an epidemiologic focus and others are more interested in behavioral medicine. In order to fully accommodate trainees with these different interests, and for the current funding period (2012 – 2017), we changed the structure of the program by expanding the leadership to two co-directors, one of whom has extensive experience in research and mentorship related to cardiovascular epidemiology and the other has a similar depth of experience in cardiovascular behavioral medicine, while retaining the Associate Director position that had been in existence since the inception of the program. For the current period, we expanded the number of positions in the program from four to five (2 predocs and 3 postdocs). For this renewal (2017 – 2022), we propose to keep the same number of trainees. Beyond this, we are proposing a change to the leadership. Since Dr. Criqui will be retiring in a few years, and to allow for a smooth transition, Dr. Allison (Associate Director) will assume the role that Dr. Criqui was filling, Dr. Marcus will remain the co-director and Dr. Criqui will remain with the program as the Senior Associate Program Director. All Directors are faculty in the Division of Preventive Medicine in the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine in the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine. To achieve the objectives of the program, faculty for the proposed program have been recruited not only from this Division but from several other divisions in the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, as well as from other Departments in the School of Medicine, including Medicine and Psychiatry. Similarly, faculty have been recruited from the San Diego State University Graduate School of Public Health, which has teaching programs in both epidemiology and health behavior. In addition, the University of California and San Diego State University sponsor two joint doctoral programs closely linked to this proposal: Public Health and Clinical Psychology.
