DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The objective of this educational program is to develop graduate doctors of chiropractic (DCs) who will practice using the concepts, methods, and procedures of evidence-based practice. This will be done by significantly increasing the depth and breadth of research content at the National University of Health Sciences (NUHS). The simultaneous implementation of the three parts of the educational program will be accomplished by partnering with the Division of Epidemiology and Biostatistics of the School of Public Health at the University of Illinois at Chicago (UIC). The first part of the education plan would significantly increase the research related content in the DC program by adding five (Trimesters 5-8) to seven (Trimesters 1-4) hours of lecture and one hour of large and small group activities per trimester in the first eight trimesters of the curriculum. Some of the topics to be taught would include: searching the biomedical (including CAM) literature, basic and clinical science research methods, biostatistics, epidemiology, critical appraisal of the literature, ethical conduct of animal and human research, and evidence-based practice. In addition, a well developed in-service program, required journal clubs, written case reports, and a formal, in-depth case study would be added to the ninth and tenth trimesters of the DC curriculum. The second part of the education plan is an NUHS faculty development program. This would include weekly in-services, semiannual three-hour workshops, and topic related journal clubs covering the same topics as those taught to the DC students, but in greater depth. The third part is a fall trimester mentored student and mentored NUHS faculty sabbatical research program. The one student and one faculty member selected each year for this intensive program would take an appropriate level biostatistics and epidemiology course at the UIC School of Public Health; in addition, they would work with a member of the UIC faculty in a mentored research environment for 20 hours per week throughout the 15-week trimester. Under the guidance of their mentors, the student and NUHS faculty member would be encouraged to submit an abstract, reporting on the results of their research, to a scientific conference. Even if submitting an abstract is not possible, each will attend a scientific conference in the year following their mentored research experience. All three aspects of the program will be assessed every trimester by participating students and faculty. In addition, yearly needs assessments of the faculty and students will be conducted, and students will be assessed to determine mastery of research related content and skills throughout the curriculum by a series of standardized written and practical examinations. This four year program should significantly improve the already rich culture of scholarship at NUHS.

描述（由申请人提供）：该教育计划的目标是培养脊椎按摩疗法（DC）研究生医生，他们将使用循证实践的概念、方法和程序进行实践。这将通过显着增加国立健康科学大学（NUHS）研究内容的深度和广度来实现。该教育计划的三个部分的同时实施将通过与伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校（UIC）公共卫生学院流行病学和生物统计学系合作完成。教育计划的第一部分将显着增加 DC 项目中的研究相关内容，增加 5 小时（第 5-8 学期）至 7 小时（第 1-4 学期）的讲座以及每学期 1 小时的大型和小组活动。课程的前八个学期。教授的一些主题包括：搜索生物医学（包括 CAM）文献、基础和临床科学研究方法、生物统计学、流行病学、文献批判性评估、动物和人类研究的道德行为以及循证实践。此外，DC 课程的第九和第十个学期将添加完善的在职计划、所需的期刊俱乐部、书面案例报告以及正式、深入的案例研究。教育计划的第二部分是 NUHS 教师发展计划。这将包括每周一次的服务、半年一次的三小时研讨会以及与主题相关的期刊俱乐部，其主题与向华盛顿特区学生教授的主题相同，但更深入。第三部分是秋季学期指导学生和指导 NUHS 教师休假研究项目。每年选拔的一名学生和一名教职人员将在伊利诺伊大学芝加哥分校公共卫生学院学习适当水平的生物统计学和流行病学课程；此外，在为期 15 周的三个月期间，他们将与 UIC 教职人员一起在受指导的研究环境中每周工作 20 个小时。在导师的指导下，鼓励学生和 NUHS 教员向科学会议提交一份摘要，报告其研究结果。即使无法提交摘要，每个人都将在获得指导研究经验后的一年内参加科学会议。该计划的所有三个方面将由参与的学生和教师每三个月进行一次评估。此外，每年将对教师和学生进行需求评估，并通过一系列标准化笔试和实践考试来评估学生对整个课程中研究相关内容和技能的掌握程度。这个为期四年的项目将显着改善 NUHS 已经丰富的学术文化。
