ABSTRACT With this R25t application we intend to establish an interdisciplinary research education and training program at the University of Massachusetts Medical School (UMMS) focused on implementation research in cancer prevention and control, including tobacco, obesity, diet, physical activity, skin cancer prevention and cancer screenings. There are well-documented gaps between the discovery of knowledge in cancer prevention and control and the application of this knowledge in clinical practice, public health practice, and health policy to benefit population health. Implementation research has emerged as a multi-disciplinary field that seeks to alleviate these gaps. We propose an interdisciplinary training program for postdoctoral fellows that will promote the development of independent implementation researchers through academic training and mentored research experiences. To achieve this goal, we propose five specific aims: 1) To establish an administrative infrastructure to support implementation research education and training in cancer prevention; 2) To develop and implement educational curricula focusing on implementation research in cancer prevention with the option of receiving an MS degree specializing in implementation science; 3) To offer mentored research experiences for postdoctoral fellows in collaboration with our partnering organizations; 4) To recruit highly qualified, diverse candidates; and 5) To effectively monitor and evaluate the program. This application is a joint effort of the UMMS Division of Preventive and Behavioral Medicine and Department of Quantitative Health Sciences, in collaboration with additional departments (Family Medicine and Community Health, Psychiatry) and centers (Meyers Primary Care Institute, Prevention Research Center, Center for Health Equity Intervention Research, Health Geography Lab, Center for mHealth, Center for Tobacco Treatment and Research). Infrastructure and cross campus collaborations established through the UMass Center for Clinical and Translational Science (NIH CTSA), including the UMass Amherst Schools of Public Health and Health Sciences and Computer Science and UMass Boston, will also be leveraged. Clinical and community partners include: the Cancer Center of Excellence, the Bedford and Central MA VA Medical Centers, UMass Memorial Health Care, the Edward M. Kennedy Community Health Center, the Massachusetts Department of Public Health, the NCI-sponsored Cancer Research Network and the Public Health Training Center at the UMass School of Public Health and Health Sciences. We propose to enroll two to three fellows per year. At the completion of the training program, we anticipate that fellows will establish careers as independent investigators who will focus on eliminating gaps in the translation of evidence-based cancer prevention research into practice.

抽象的 通过此R25T应用程序，我们打算建立跨学科研究教育和培训计划 马萨诸塞大学医学院（UMMS）的重点是癌症的实施研究 预防和控制，包括烟草，肥胖，饮食，体育锻炼，预防皮肤癌和癌症 放映。在癌症预防中发现知识与 控制和应用这些知识在临床实践，公共卫生实践和卫生政策中 受益于人口健康。实施研究已成为一个多学科领域，试图 减轻这些差距。我们为博士后研究员提供跨学科培训计划，以促进 通过学术培训的发展独立实施研究人员的发展和指导 研究经验。为了实现这一目标，我们提出了五个具体目标：1）建立行政 支持实施研究教育和预防癌症的培训的基础设施； 2）开发 并实施专注于预防癌症的实施研究的教育课程， 获得专门从事实施科学的MS学位； 3）提供指导的研究经验 与我们的合作组织合作进行博士后研究员； 4）招募高素质，多样化 候选人； 5）有效监视和评估该程序。该应用是共同努力的 预防和行为医学和定量健康科学系的UMMS部门 与其他部门（家庭医学和社区健康，精神病学）和中心合作 （迈耶斯初级保健研究所，卫生公平干预研究中心预防研究中心， Health Geography Lab，MHealth中心，烟草治疗和研究中心）。基础设施和 通过UMASS临床和转化科学中心建立的跨校园合作（NIH CTSA），包括UMass Amherst公共卫生和健康科学学校以及计算机科学 波士顿的UMass，也将被杠杆化。临床和社区合作伙伴包括： 卓越，贝德福德和中央马VA医疗中心，UMass Memorial Health Care，Edward M. NCI赞助的马萨诸塞州公共卫生部肯尼迪社区健康中心 UMass公共卫生学院的癌症研究网络和公共卫生培训中心 健康科学。我们建议每年注册两到三个研究员。完成培训计划时， 我们预计研究员将成为独立调查员的职业，他们将专注于消除差距 在将基于证据的癌症预防研究转化为实践中。
