项目总结/摘要 佛罗里达大学（UF）牙科学院和东卡罗莱纳大学 (ECU)牙科医学院正在合作建立一个学术 多学科的基于实践的研究网络内和他们各自的牙科 学校提供临床教师，居民，和博士生与能力为基础的 技能发展、研究指导和参与实践的培训计划- 面向临床研究。该伙伴关系解决了NIDCR的机会， 研究整合牙科学校的多学科经验（PRIMED）。有一个 需要在牙科教育，以促进研究技能的培训和经验，在前和 博士后水平，并将这些过程与跨专业教育相结合， 跨学科研究该提案旨在促进文化变革， 研究是牙科教育和牙科实践的重要组成部分。 拟议的项目概述了研究机会的发展 （DOOR）：国家未来学术跨学科劳动力和合作者 牙科实践研究网络（PBRN）。沿着临床研究技能 开发和指导，包括两项具有通用数据库的临床研究 在两所学校，涉及牙科学生，居民，临床教师，和研究- 密集的教师。这些研究将集中在糖尿病检测椅旁（推进前， 糖尿病/牙周病口腔学术临床保健研究;方法）或疼痛 影响牙科治疗的条件（慢性重叠疼痛评价研究; COPES）。 该项目将利用UF的资源，作为一个研究密集型牙科学校（#5在 NIDCR资金），以促进牙科学生和居民在UF和ECU的管道 从事临床研究的人作为一所较新的牙科学校，ECU（在NIDCR资金中排名第47） 将推进其研究活动并提供资源，增加这一倡议的多样性 鉴于他们在牙科学生中实现种族和民族多样性的成功， 他们所服务的病人。对于这两个机构，UF临床和 将利用转化科学研究所进行研究培训和实施， 还依靠用友的经验与牙科实践为基础的研究网络。 此外，牙科临床研究单位在UF将被用作资源，将 UF疼痛研究和干预卓越中心。

Project Summary/Abstract The University of Florida (UF) College of Dentistry and East Carolina University (ECU) School of Dental Medicine are collaborating to establish an academic multidisciplinary practice-based research network within and between their respective dental schools to provide clinical faculty, residents, and predoctoral students with a competency-based training program for skills development, research mentorship, and participation in practice- oriented clinical research. The partnership addresses NIDCR’s opportunity for Practice-Based Research Integrating Multidisciplinary Experiences in Dental Schools (PRIMED). There is a need in dental education to promote research skill training and experiences, at both the pre- and post-doctoral levels, and to integrate these processes with interprofessional education and transdisciplinary research. This proposal is designed to foster culture change to embrace research as a critical component of both dental education and dental practice. The proposed project outlines the Development of Opportunities for Research (DOOR): Future Academic Interdisciplinary Workforce and Collaborators for the National Dental Practice-Based Research Network (PBRN). Along with clinical research skills development and mentoring, included are two clinical research studies with common databases across the two schools, to involve dental students, residents, clinical faculty, and research- intensive faculty. The studies will be focused on diabetes detection chairside (Advancing Pre- diabetes/Periodontal Research in Oral Academic Clinical Healthcare; APPROACH) or pain conditions affecting dental treatment (Chronic Overlapping Pain Evaluation Study; COPES). This project will leverage the resources of UF as a research-intensive dental school (#5 in NIDCR funding) to promote a pipeline of dental students and residents at both UF and ECU who are engaged with clinical research. As a newer dental school, ECU (#47 in NIDCR funding) will advance its research activities and lend its resources, adding to the diversity in this initiative given their successes in realizing racial and ethnic diversity among their dental students and the patients whom they serve. For both institutions, the resources of the UF Clinical and Translational Science Institute will be harnessed for research training and implementation, also relying on UF’s experience with the Dental Practice Based Research Network. Additionally, the Dental Clinical Research Unit at UF will be used as a resource, as will the UF Pain Research and Intervention Center of Excellence.
