RESEARCH TRAINING MENTAL HEALTH STATISTICS

项目摘要

This is a request for a continuation of the Mental health Statistics (MHS) Training Program offered by the Division of Biostatistics at Columbia university's Sch of Public Health. The MHS program trains statisticians completing the requirements of doctoral degrees in biostatistics (predoctoral fellows) and mental health researchers already holding a doctoral degree (postdoctoral fellows). Through these complementary programs, we aim to facilitate collaboration between statisticians and mental health researchers and to train statisticians who will specialize in psychiatric research as an area of application. Predoctoral fellows study advanced statistics in order to earn the Ph.D. or Dr. P.H. in Biostatistics, and also receive training in psychiatric nosology, psychiatric epidemiology, and psychometrics. They are expected to engage in collaborative research on mental health related projects. Postdoctoral fellows receive training in biostatistics by earning a Master's degree in Biostatistics. This component of the program is designed for psychologist, psychiatrists, sociologists or epidemiologists who have conducted research on mental health problems and who want an unusually thorough background in quantitative methods. Postdoctoral applicants with strong quantitative background (e.g., a doctorate in applied mathematics or mathematical statistics) and interest in statistical genetics are also invited to apply. These applicants may not need to work toward a biostatistics degree; instead they engage in statistical research with psychiatric applications. They learn about mental health research by taking courses in psychiatric nosology and structured assessment, by attending the weekly seminars, and by participating in mental health related research projects. Postdoctoral and predoctoral fellows interact with each other, with fellows of Columbia University's Psychiatric Epidemiology training Program, and with researchers in Columbia's Psychiatry Department and at the New York State Psychiatric Institute. The quality and breadth of the research conducted at these institutions provides a unique opportunity for MHS fellows to obtain interdisciplinary training in mental health and statistics, as well as statistical genetics. In each of years 17 through 21, we request funding for one predoctoral fellow and three postdoctoral fellows.

这是延续心理健康统计（MHS）的要求哥伦比亚生物统计学部提供的培训计划大学的公共卫生学院。 MHS计划训练统计学家完成生物统计学中博士学位的要求（托管前研究者）和心理健康研究人员已经持有博士学位（博士后研究员）。通过这些补充计划，我们旨在促进统计学家与心理健康研究人员和培训将专门研究的统计学家精神病研究是一种应用领域。前研究者研究高级统计数据，以获得博士学位。或者 P.H.博士在生物统计学中，还接受精神病学培训疾病，精神病学和精神计量学。他们是预期的从事有关心理健康相关项目的合作研究。博士后研究员通过获得生物统计学的培训生物统计学硕士学位。程序的这个组成部分是专为心理学家，精神科医生，社会学家或流行病学家设计谁对心理健康问题进行了研究，谁想要定量方法异常透彻的背景。博士后具有强大定量背景的申请人（例如，博士学位应用数学或数学统计）和对统计的兴趣还邀请遗传学应用。这些申请人可能不需要工作迈向生物统计学；相反，他们从事统计研究与精神病应用有关。他们了解了心理健康研究通过精神病学和结构化评估的课程，参加每周研讨会，并参加心理健康相关研究项目。博士后和杂物前研究员相互互动，哥伦比亚大学精神病流行病学培训计划的与哥伦比亚精神病学部门和纽约的研究人员一起国家精神病学院。研究的质量和广度在这些机构进行的MHS为MHS提供了独特的机会研究员获得心理健康方面的跨学科培训和统计以及统计遗传学。在17至21年的每一年中，我们要求为一份杂物提供资金研究员和三个博士后研究员。
