DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overarching goal of this competing continuation NIH/NCCAM T32 application for the Arizona Complementary and Alternative Medicine Research Training Program (ACAMRTP, PI Iris R. Bell, MD PhD) is to prepare qualified fellows to perform rigorous and innovative research on whole systems of CAM within the setting of an interdisciplinary Department of Family and Community Medicine (DFCM) at the University of Arizona College of Medicine. Successful ACAMRTP fellows will proceed into productive and successful academic careers that will contribute to evaluating the effectiveness, safety, impact, and societal mechanisms of widely-used whole systems of CAM, e.g., traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), homeopathy, naturopathy, indigenous healing traditions, and contemporary integrative medicine. This emphasis is consistent with stated goal of NCCAM's Five-Year Strategic Plan to support whole systems research (WSR). To achieve the overarching goal, current specific aims are: 1. To identify and recruit qualified applicants as fellows, drawn from a range of primary disciplines that are relevant to a whole systems of CAM approach, including primary care medicine, anthropology, nursing, psychology, and CAM disciplines. 2. To offer a structured and directed training program that will include clear primary and secondary scientific and academic goals, regular constructive interactions with core DFCM faculty mentors and affiliate mentoring faculty with funded CAM research interests throughout the University of Arizona, thoughtful scientific criticism of the work of the fellows, support for professional presentations and submission of results for publication, and practical preparation in grant-writing, project development, and project implementation skills for career success. 3. To ground fellows in a interdisciplinary WSR approach, through formal coursework and seminar series, conferences, interactions with scientific mentors, and research projects that are integrated into a comprehensive program. This work builds upon existing collaborative relationships of T32 core faculty members with the Program in Integrative Medicine and other academic units at the University as well as the network of extramural collaborators at CAM-oriented doctoral institutions who will refer potential trainees for admission. The current proposal reflects several enhancements from an administrative, academic, and curricular perspective that emerged from experience in the first five years of implementing this T32 program.

描述（由申请人提供）：这项针对亚利桑那州补充和替代医学研究培训计划（ACAMRTP、PI Iris R. Bell、医学博士）的竞争性延续 NIH/NCCAM T32 申请的总体目标是培养合格的研究员执行严格和在亚利桑那大学医学院跨学科家庭和社区医学系 (DFCM) 的背景下，对 CAM 整个系统进行创新研究。成功的 ACAMRTP 研究员将进入富有成效和成功的学术生涯，这将有助于评估广泛使用的 CAM 整个系统的有效性、安全性、影响和社会机制，例如传统中医 (TCM)、顺势疗法、自然疗法、本土疗法传统和现代综合医学。这一重点与 NCCAM 五年战略计划支持全系统研究 (WSR) 的既定目标一致。为了实现总体目标，当前的具体目标是： 1. 识别和招募合格的申请者作为研究员，这些申请者来自与 CAM 方法整个系统相关的一系列主要学科，包括初级保健医学、人类学、护理、心理学和 CAM 学科。 2. 提供结构化和定向培训计划，其中包括明确的主要和次要科学和学术目标、与核心 DFCM 教师导师和整个亚利桑那大学受资助的 CAM 研究兴趣的附属指导教师的定期建设性互动、对 CAM 研究兴趣的深思熟虑的科学批评研究员的工作、对专业演讲的支持和提交出版结果的支持，以及为职业成功而撰写赠款、项目开发和项目实施技能的实际准备。 3. 通过正式课程和研讨会系列、会议、与科学导师的互动以及纳入综合计划的研究项目，让研究员采用跨学科的 WSR 方法。这项工作建立在 T32 核心教员与大学综合医学项目和其他学术单位的现有合作关系以及面向 CAM 的博士机构的校外合作者网络的基础上，这些合作者将推荐潜在的学员入学。当前的提案反映了从行政、学术和课程角度来看的几项改进，这些改进是根据实施 T32 计划的前五年的经验而产生的。
