The goal of this proposal is to improve the education and training of clinical investigator trainees at Vanderbilt University Medical Center. This goal will be accomplished by creating a curriculum and learning environment at the Vanderbilt University Medical Center for multidisciplinary training in clinical research that provides the fundamental skills, methodology, theories, and conceptualizations necessary for a well-trained, independent, clinical researcher to be successful in academic medicine, successfully compete for research funding and to make important contributions to the advancement of medicine and medical science. Clinical research is patient-based and includes (1) patient-oriented research - including mechanisms of human disease, therapeutic interventions, clinical trials, and the development of new technologies; (2) epidemiologic and behavioral studies; and (3) outcomes and health services research. The specific objectives and implementation strategies are: (1) Create and implement a new degree program - Masters Degree in Clinical Investigation (M.C.I.) - for clinical research trainees focusing on patient-oriented research; (2) Expand the existing Masters in Public Health (M.P.H.) program for clinical research trainees focusing on epidemiologic/behavioral research or outcomes/health services research so that trainees can matriculate into the program annually instead of biannually; (3) Implement an integrated core curriculum that brings together trainees from both the M.C.I. and M.P.H. programs; (4) Recruit talented clinical research trainees into our clinical research curriculum and clinical research degree programs; (5) Implement a strategy to encourage and support women and minority applicants and trainees; (6) Evaluate the design and implementation of the each of the curricula through both process and outcomes evaluation methods; and (7) Implement continuous quality improvement procedures that will improve the process and outcomes of the curricular components, overall curriculum, and overall program. The proposed curriculum is designed to be both didactic and experiential and follows the conceptual model of adult learning theory. Program participants will matriculate from the 27 currently federally funded clinical fellowship training programs and from the medical school. The program has established an Advisory Committee of faculty with distinguished accomplishments in clinical research and clinical research training which will provide monitoring, evaluation, and recommendations for program improvement. A limited number of scholarships will be awarded on a competitive basis to cover a trainee's tuition costs.

该提案的目标是改善范德比尔特大学医学中心临床研究者实习生的教育和培训。 这一目标将通过在范德比尔特大学医学中心创建一个用于临床研究多学科培训的课程和学习环境来实现，该培训提供训练有素的、独立的临床研究人员取得成功所需的基本技能、方法、理论和概念化在学术医学领域，成功竞争研究经费并为医学和医学科学的进步做出重要贡献。 临床研究以患者为基础，包括（1）以患者为导向的研究——包括人类疾病机制、治疗干预、临床试验和新技术开发； (2)流行病学和行为研究； (3) 结果和卫生服务研究。 具体目标和实施策略是：（1）为临床研究实习生创建并实施新的学位项目——临床研究硕士学位（M.C.I.），重点关注以患者为中心的研究； (2) 扩大现有的针对临床研究学员的公共卫生硕士 (M.P.H.) 项目，重点关注流行病学/行为研究或结果/卫生服务研究，以便学员可以每年而不是每两年入学一次； (3) 实施综合核心课程，汇集来自 M.C.I. 和 M.C.I. 的学员。和公共卫生硕士节目； (4) 招募有才华的临床研究实习生加入我们的临床研究课程和临床研究学位课程； (5) 实施鼓励和支持妇女和少数民族申请者和受训者的战略； （6）通过过程评价和结果评价相结合的方式对各课程的设计和实施进行评价； (7) 实施持续的质量改进程序，以改进课程组成部分、总体课程和总体计划的过程和结果。 所提出的课程设计既具有教学性又具有体验性，并遵循成人学习理论的概念模型。 项目参与者将从目前联邦资助的 27 个临床奖学金培训项目和医学院录取。 该项目设立了一个由在临床研究和临床研究培训方面取得杰出成就的教师组成的咨询委员会，将为项目改进提供监督、评估和建议。 将在竞争的基础上颁发数量有限的奖学金，以支付学员的学费。
