 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This new T32 application from the University of Washington (UW) focuses on a novel and important area of research - palliative care research for heart, lung, and blood diseases. Our aging population and advances in chronic disease management have combined to create an enormous need for improved palliative care research across diverse diseases. Heart, lung, and blood diseases encompass leading causes of death and disability in the US, and represent areas where palliative care research has lagged behind compared to cancer. This application differs from any existing T32 programs at UW or elsewhere by focusing on training in palliative care research for patients with heart, lung, and blood diseases. Additionally, because health disparities in palliative care have been well documented, this innovative training program focuses on understanding and eliminating these disparities. This proposal capitalizes on the exceptional faculty and academic environment across multiple schools (Medicine, Nursing, Public Health, and Social Work) and multiple Divisions within the School of Medicine; it also builds upon a close working relationship with our NIH Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) that will support research training. Dr. J. Randall Curtis, the program director, is a national leader in palliative care research and has been the recipient of a K24 Award for mentoring from NHLBI for 10 years. He is also the Director of the new UW Palliative Care Center of Excellence which will support this proposed T32. We have developed a rigorous research training program built on four core principles to prepare new researchers for independent careers: 1) Trainees must master a defined set of research and writing skills necessary to advance to independent, yet collaborative investigators; 2) Structured and comprehensive research mentoring is critical to retaining trainees in science; 3) Research projects must be tailored to each trainee and designed to be successful training vehicles that facilitate early academic productivity; 4) Training in palliative care research shoul provide opportunities for interdisciplinary interactions and promote team science. To continuously improve our training program, we will assess the effectiveness of our methods for training and mentoring using well-defined metrics, and adjust our methods as necessary. We are requesting 4 post-doctoral training slots and trainees will complete a two-year training program. This application represents an important opportunity to advance palliative care research concerning heart, lung, and blood diseases, and to create a research workforce for the future.

 描述（由应用程序提供）：华盛顿大学（UW）的这一新的T32应用于研究的新颖而重要的研究领域 - 心脏，肺和血液疾病的姑息治疗研究。我们的老龄化人口和慢性病管理的进步已经结合起来，为改善潜水疾病的姑息治疗研究的巨大需求。与癌症相比，心脏，肺和血液疾病涵盖了美国的主要死亡和残疾原因，并代表了姑息治疗研究落后的地区。该应用程序与UW或其他地方的任何现有T32计划不同，专注于为患有心脏，肺和血液疾病的患者进行姑息治疗研究的培训。此外，由于姑息治疗中的健康差异已得到充分证明，因此该创新的培训计划着重于理解和消除这些差异。在跨多个学校（医学，护理，公共卫生和社会工作）以及医学院内的多个部门的特殊教师和学术环境中大写；它还与我们的NIH临床和转化科学奖（CTSA）建立了密切的工作关系，该奖项将支持研究培训。计划主任J. Randall Curtis博士是姑息治疗研究的国家领导者，并获得了NHLBI指导的K24奖，已有10年了。他还是新的UW姑息治疗卓越中心的主任，该中心将支持该拟议的T32。我们已经开发了一项严格的研究培训计划，以四个核心原则为独立职业的新研究人员做好准备：1）学员必须掌握一套确定的研究和写作技巧，以晋升为独立但协作的研究人员； 2）结构化和全面的研究心理学对于保留科学学员至关重要； 3）研究项目必须针对每个学员量身定制，并旨在成功培训促进早期学术产品的培训车辆； 4）姑息治疗研究的培训肩膀为跨学科互动和促进团队科学提供了机会。为了不断改进我们的培训计划，我们将评估使用定义明确的指标进行培训和心理化的方法的有效性，并根据需要调整我们的方法。我们要求4个博士后培训老虎机，学员将完成为期两年的培训计划。该应用是一个重要的机会，可以推进有关心脏，肺和血液疾病的姑息治疗研究，并为未来创造研究人员。
