项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Health and health behavior depend crucially on social networks. Both the spread of communicable diseases, such as HIV, and the diffusion of beliefs and practices that shape health behavior, such as dietary risk behavior, can be understood as network-generated health processes, operating over (sometimes very complex and dynamic) social networks. This recognition is evidenced by the dramatic growth in social network and health studies in the last 15 years. Despite the clear demand and growing recognition of health importance, network methods are rarely covered in the standard social-science methods sequences characteristics of health and health-policy scholars. Since the methodological scope of network science is so broad, we use a pragmatic approach that draws on the depth of local expertise among triangle universities. We start with a core set of foundational courses that branch out to workshops specifically designed around skills needed for in-hand projects the students are working on. This novel "trunk-and-branch" training structure will simultaneously create broad understanding and literacy in social network and health research while providing program fellows (triangle-area NIH pre-and post-docs) with the skills and resources needed to move research from inchoate ideas to practical, well-reasoned and generative social networks and health research.

描述（由适用提供）：健康和健康行为完全取决于社交网络。诸如艾滋病毒之类的传播疾病的传播以及塑造健康行为（例如饮食风险行为）的信念和实践的传播，都可以理解为网络生成的健康过程，运作（有时是非常复杂且动态的）社交网络。过去15年中，社交网络和健康研究的急剧增长可以证明这种认识。尽管需求明确和对健康重要性的认识日益认识，但标准的社会科学方法序列的健康和健康政策学者的特征很少涵盖网络方法。由于网络科学的方法范围非常广泛，因此我们使用一种务实的方法，该方法借鉴了三角大学之间本地专业知识的深度。我们从一组核心的基础课程开始，这些课程是针对学生正在进行的掌握项目所需技能的专门设计的研讨会。这种小说的“树干和分支”培训结构将在社交网络和健康研究中创造广泛的理解和识字，同时提供计划研究员（三角地区NIH前后的培训前后），将研究从研究思想转移到实用，良好，良好的，良好的，通用的社交网络以及健康网络和健康研究所需的技能和资源。
