DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overarching objective of this interdisciplinary training program in the science of health development (ITSHD) is to prepare nurse scientists to understand how biology and social and environmental contexts intersect during childhood to influence life course health development and to use this knowledge to develop rigorous interdisciplinary programs of research to optimize health. The focus of this training program is on health development in children, broadly defined to include the period from conception through adolescence. The ITSHD is guided by a transformative framework based in the work of two prominent theory- based approaches: the Life Course Health Development (LCHDF) framework by Halfon and Hochstein, and the ecobiodevelopmental framework (EBDF) by Shonkoff and colleagues at Harvard's Healthy Child Center. This framework transforms how health development is conceptualized by its focus on life course health trajectories and integrates the health production models from individual and public health. The objectives of this interdisciplinary training program are to: i) Recruit and retain diverse and qualified trainees wit special emphasis on students in baccalaureate and second degree programs. ii) Prepare trainees to conduct rigorous research within the scientific area of health development during childhood (i.e., the period from conception through adolescence). iii) Prepare trainees to develop and implement ethical health research with children within interdisciplinary research teams. iv) Prepare trainees to successfully translate the science of health development into clinical practice and health policy interventions that will improve child health. Ten predoctoral students will be supported over the training period. The target is to admit half as post-masters students and half as second-degree or post-baccalaureate students. Post masters trainees will be supported for 2 years; post-baccalaureate and second degree trainees for 3 years. The proposed training plan builds on considerable strengths within the OSU College of Nursing that includes an exceptional track record in receipt of individual F31 awards, superb interdisciplinary relationships with researchers at Nationwide Children's Hospital, the OSU departments of pediatrics and sociology. Enrichment opportunities include established interdisciplinary seminar programs offered by research centers in the health sciences and national workshops addressing interventional research and translating research into practice hosted by the College of Nursing. Research training will be accomplished through the development and execution of individualized plans that include coursework, attendance at seminars, and the involvement in interdisciplinary funded research of program faculty.

描述（由申请人提供）：健康发展科学 (ITSHD) 跨学科培训计划的总体目标是让护士科学家了解生物学、社会和环境背景如何在儿童时期交叉影响生命历程的健康发展并利用这些知识可用于制定严格的跨学科研究计划，以优化健康。该培训计划的重点是儿童的健康发展，广义上包括从受孕到青春期的时期。 ITSHD 以基于两种著名理论方法工作的变革性框架为指导：Halfon 和 Hochstein 提出的生命历程健康发展 (LCHDF) 框架，以及哈佛大学健康儿童中心的 Shonkoff 及其同事提出的生态生物发展框架 (EBDF) 。该框架通过关注生命全程健康轨迹，转变了健康发展的概念，并整合了个人健康和公共卫生的健康生产模式。该跨学科培训计划的目标是： i) 招募和留住多元化且合格的学员，特别注重学士学位和第二学位课程的学生。 ii) 帮助学员做好在儿童期（即从受孕到青春期）健康发展科学领域进行严格研究的准备。 iii) 帮助学员在跨学科研究团队中开展和实施儿童伦理健康研究。 iv) 帮助学员做好准备，将健康发展科学成功转化为临床实践和卫生政策干预措施，从而改善儿童健康。培训期间将支持十名博士前学生。目标是招收一半硕士后学生和一半第二学位或学士学位后学生。硕士研究生将获得2年的支持；学士后和第二学位学员为期 3 年。拟议的培训计划建立在俄勒冈州立大学护理学院的相当大的优势之上，其中包括获得个人 F31 奖项的杰出记录、与全国儿童医院、俄勒冈州立大学儿科和社会学系的研究人员建立的良好的跨学科关系。丰富的机会包括由健康科学研究中心提供的既定跨学科研讨会项目以及由护理学院主办的涉及介入研究和将研究转化为实践的国家研讨会。研究培训将通过制定和执行个性化计划来完成，包括课程作业、参加研讨会以及项目教师参与跨学科资助的研究。
