DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): As increasing numbers of Americans avail themselves of complementary and alternative medicine (CAM), the need grows for clinical research to evaluate their safety and efficacy. It has been difficult to meet this need because few medical practitioners in either allopathic or CAM modalities are specifically trained to conduct clinical research. Six departments at three major, established health institutions in the Twin Cities metropolitan area have established the Minnesota CAM Research Consortium to offer the proposed Minnesota Program for Clinical Research in CAM. The Program includes didactic curriculum in research methodology, with particular emphasis on applications in CAM. Completion of the didactic curriculum leads to an M.S. degree at the University of Minnesota either in Clinical Research, or Health Services Research and Policy, with a Graduate Minor in Complementary Therapies and Healing Practices. The Program also includes monthly symposia on topics relevant to CAM clinical research, plus an intensive summer program reviewing all aspects of the research process. Finally, the Program includes Trainee involvement in an on-going CAM clinical research project. Participating institutions are Hennepin Faculty Associates, Northwestern Health Sciences University, and the University of Minnesota. The lead organization is the world-renowned Berman Center for Outcomes and Clinical Research, at the Minneapolis Medical Research Foundation of Hennepin Faculty Associates. Dr. Richard Grimm is Program Director. The Program will produce a highly trained cadre of clinical investigators with the knowledge and experience to becoming leading researchers in CAM.

描述（由申请人提供）：随着越来越多的美国人利用互补和替代医学（CAM），临床研究的需求增长，以评估其安全性和功效。很难满足这一需求，因为很少有同种疗法或CAM模式的医生经过专门培训以进行临床研究。 在双城大都市地区三个主要的卫生机构的六个部门已经建立了明尼苏达州CAM研究联盟，以提供拟议的明尼苏达州CAM临床研究计划。该计划包括研究方法中的教学课程，特别着重于CAM中的应用。教学课程的完成导致硕士学位明尼苏达大学的临床研究或卫生服务研究和政策的学位，辅助辅助疗法和康复实践。该计划还包括有关与CAM临床研究相关的主题的每月研讨会，以及一项密集的夏季计划，审查了研究过程的各个方面。 最后，该计划包括受训者参与正在进行的CAM临床研究项目。 参加机构是亨内平（Hennepin）教职员工，西北健康科学大学和明尼苏达大学。首席组织是亨内平教师合伙人明尼阿波利斯医学研究基金会的世界知名伯曼成果和临床研究中心。理查德·格林（Richard Grimm）博士是计划主任。 该计划将为培训的临床研究人员提供知识和经验，成为CAM领先的研究人员。
