DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Integrative medicine approaches, including meditation, yoga, tai chi, massage, and other practices are widely used by Americans in the hope of obtaining health benefits. Evidence for the health effects of these practices, however, has important limitations. The goal of the fellowship, "Training for Research in Integrative Medicine" (TRIM), is to train post-doctoral behavioral and social scientists, physicians, and other qualified health professionals to design and conduct rigorous clinical and translational research in CAM and integrative medicine. The program is based at the Osher Center for Integrative Medicine (OCIM) within the UCSF School of Medicine. In the present renewal, we detail the rationale for the program and our progress to date, and we propose a program incorporating improvements based on our experience in the first five years. A key change we propose is to expand the training program to include two predoctoral positions in addition to the current four post-doctoral positions. The TRIM program provides: an interdisciplinary clinical and research environment; strong mentoring by an experienced and diverse research faculty; advanced training in biological and psychological research methodologies to support clinical research in integrative medicine; rigorous training in clinical research methodologies, with special attention to issues that are particularly relevant to integrative medicine research; opportunity to conduct original research; training in research ethics; and exposure to diverse integrative approaches to patient care involving all age groups from early childhood through geriatric patients. The TRIM interdisciplinary faculty has twelve core and eight affiliated members representing internal medicine, family medicine, psychology, anthropology, biostatistics, psychoneuroendocrinology, women's health, pediatrics, health services research, medical ethics, and psychiatry. In addition, a major strength of the training program is the clinical advisory faculty who are available to provide technical assistance and consultation on specific integrative medicine approaches that trainees might want to study. TRIM faculty provide required and optional academic activities that are tailored to each trainee's individual learning objectives and are committed to being active mentors to trainees. The TRIM program will equip a new generation of researchers to expand our knowledge-base about how and whether integrative medicine approaches work for specific health conditions.

描述（由申请人提供）：美国人广泛使用冥想，瑜伽，太极拳，按摩和其他做法，包括冥想，瑜伽，太极拳，按摩和其他实践，以期获得健康益处。但是，这些实践对健康影响的证据具有重要的局限性。奖学金“综合医学研究培训”（TRIM）的目标是培训博士后行为和社会科学家，医生以及其他合格的卫生专业人员，以设计和进行CAM和综合医学的严格临床和翻译研究。该计划位于UCSF医学院内的Osher综合医学中心（OCIM）。在目前的续约中，我们详细介绍了该计划的基本原理以及我们迄今为止的进步，我们提出了一个计划，该计划根据我们在头五年中的经验进行了改进。我们建议的一个关键变化是扩大培训计划，除了当前的四个博士后职位外，还包括两个术前职位。 TRIM计划提供：跨学科的临床和研究环境；经验丰富和多样化的研究学院的强大指导；生物学和心理学研究方法的高级培训，以支持综合医学的临床研究；在临床研究方法中进行了严格的培训，并特别注意与综合医学研究特别相关的问题；进行原始研究的机会；研究伦理培训；以及接触各种综合方法，以通过老年患者从童年到老年患者，涉及所有年龄段的患者护理方法。修剪跨学科的教师拥有十二个核心和八名隶属成员，代表内科，家庭医学，心理学，人类学，生物统计学，心理术语内分泌学，妇女健康，儿科，卫生服务研究，医学伦理学和精神病学。此外，培训计划的主要优势是临床咨询学院，他们可以就受训者可能想要学习的特定综合医学方法提供技术帮助和咨询。 Trim教师提供了为每个学员的个人学习目标量身定制的所需和可选学术活动，并致力于成为学员的积极导师。 Trim计划将为新一代研究人员提供有关如何以及整合医学方法方法是否适合特定健康状况的知识库。
