Our R25T Training Program in Cancer-related Population Sciences, a joint effort of Columbia's Mailman School of Public Health and Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center (HICCC), is now completing its 14th year and will not be eligible for renewal; thus, we submit this competitive renewal for an equivalent T32 grant. Funded continuously since 1985 by NCI T32 and R25T grants, we have provided multidisciplinary training to 45 predoctoral and 70 postdoctoral trainees. Most of them have developed successful academic careers, and many are now leaders in cancer epidemiology, biostatistics, carcinogenesis, survivorship and health outcomes research nationally. Since 2002, our R25T program has had 30 trainees. In its current cycle (2012-2017), it hosts 4 postdoctoral research fellows annually across 3 public health disciplines, supported by 19 R01-funded primary mentors and 24 secondary mentors. The average NIH grant portfolio of our primary mentors is $1.9 million/year. Past R25 trainees have published a mean of 8.75 papers with a mean of 3.5 first authored, and 20 out of 22 trainees from the last 10 years remain in research. We also have an outstanding applicant pool; 73% of applicants are training grant eligible; 18% selectivity; and 20% of trainees from underrepresented racial/ethnic groups. This competitive renewal reports on new leadership at Mailman, the participating departments, and the NCI-funded HICCC, all of whom are deeply committed to ensuring the longstanding success of our Training Program and our fellows. Mailman provides salary support for the two PIs and part- time administrative assistant as well as space and support for the trainees. Our location in northern Manhattan, including Washington Heights and Harlem with their large underserved minority populations, and our close relationships with the New York City Department of Health, made us early leaders in disparities research, and our trainees benefit tremendously from those resources. In addition, our large portfolio of international collaborative projects, together with our catchment area studies, provides our fellows with a global perspective on cancer and the changing dynamics of the cancer epidemic, which is best understood through contrasts in study populations and exposures. Our leadership in health outcomes research and survivorship, as well as the emerging field of cancer care delivery research (CCDR) has gained us a large number of fellows in medical, pediatric, surgical and gynecologic oncology as trainees. We offer training modules in study design, clinical, behavioral, laboratory, health services, and data analysis. Our program also includes weekly journal clubs, biweekly seminars, a formal evaluation protocol, and mock study sections. We regularly interact with our External Advisory Board and invite them to visit annually to meet our fellows and hear about their research. A collaboration of epidemiology, biostatistics, and environmental health sciences, including clinical and laboratory training opportunities, our program offers a superb multidisciplinary, multidimensional milieu in which trainees can develop their research skills and find their own niches.

我们在癌症相关人群科学方面的R25T培训计划，这是哥伦比亚邮递员的共同努力 公共卫生学院和赫伯特·欧文综合癌症中心（HICCC）现在正在完成其第14位 一年，将没有资格续签；因此，我们为同等的T32赠款提交了这种竞争性更新。 NCI T32和R25T赠款自1985年以来一直在资助，我们提供了多学科培训 45个占主导地位和70个博士后学员。他们中的大多数已经发展了成功的学术职业， 现在，许多人是癌症流行病学，生物统计学，癌变，生存和健康结果的领导者 全国研究。自2002年以来，我们的R25T计划已有30名学员。在当前周期（2012-2017）中， 每年在3个公共卫生学科中举办4个博士后研究研究员，并得到19 R01资助的支持 主要导师和24位次要导师。我们主要导师的平均NIH赠款投资组合为$ 1.9 百万/年。过去的R25学员的平均发表了8.75篇论文，平均第3.5篇首次撰写，并且 在过去10年中，有22名学员中有20名仍在研究中。我们也有一个出色的申请人池； 73％的申请人符合资格培训； 18％的选择性；和20％来自人为不足的学员 种族/族裔。这种竞争性更新报告了邮递的新领导 部门以及NCI资助的HICCC，所有这些都致力于确保长期以来 我们的培训计划和我们的研究员的成功。 Mailman为两个PI和部分提供薪水支持 时间行政助理以及对学员的空间和支持。我们在北部的位置 曼哈顿，包括华盛顿高地和哈林人，少数人服务不足， 我们与纽约市卫生部的密切关系使我们在差距上使我们早期领导人 研究，我们的学员从这些资源中受益匪浅。此外，我们的大型投资组合 国际协作项目以及我们的集水区研究，为我们的研究员提供了全球 关于癌症和癌症流行动态变化的观点，最好通过 研究人群和暴露的对比。我们在健康成果研究和生存方面的领导才能， 以及癌症护理递送研究的新兴领域（CCDR）也获得了大量研究员 在医学，小儿，外科和妇科肿瘤学作为学员中。我们提供研究中的培训模块 设计，临床，行为，实验室，卫生服务和数据分析。我们的计划还包括每周 期刊俱乐部，双周研讨会，正式评估协议和模拟学习部分。我们定期互动 与我们的外部咨询委员会一起，并邀请他们每年访问我们的研究员，并听到他们的了解 研究。流行病学，生物统计学和环境健康科学的合作，包括临床 和实验室培训机会，我们的计划提供了一流的多学科，多维环境 哪些学员可以发展他们的研究技能并找到自己的利基市场。
