DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Despite substantial advances in the epidemiology and prevention of cardiovascular disease (CVD), these disorders are estimated to become the leading cause of mortality worldwide by the year 2020. Unfortunately, workforce estimates have found a trend toward a shrinking supply of young investigators specializing in this field. It is vital to maintain the momentum of recent gains in our understanding of CVD by training talented physicians and researchers in the rigorous methodology for conducting epidemiologic research. To this end, the University of California San Diego (UCSD), Department of Family and Preventive Medicine, Division of Epidemiology proposes a research intensive interdisciplinary training program for trainees dedicated to careers in academic cardiovascular epidemiology and prevention. .This program is designed for pre- and post-doctoral fellows who have a stated commitment to a research career focusing on the epidemiology and prevention of CVD. The standard program length of 2 years may be extended to 3 years for post-doctoral and 5 years for pre-doctoral fellows. The curriculum will center on an intensive multidisciplinary research project and will include appropriate didactic coursework depending on the extent of previous training by the fellow. The program will integrate resources from UCSD School of Medicine departments and the Graduate School of Public Health (GSPH) at San Diego State University and its affiliated research institutes and centers. This includes a close linkage with the Division's existing Joint Doctoral Programs in Public Health Epidemiology and Health Behavior that are administered in collaboration with the GSPH. Due to the expertise, experience and breadth of mentors committed to the program, rich opportunities exist for exceptional research experiences incorporating an interdisciplinary approach.

描述（由申请人提供）：尽管在流行病学和预防心血管疾病（CVD）方面取得了长足的进步，但据估计，到2020年，这些疾病已成为全球死亡率的主要原因。不幸的是，劳动力估计发现趋势趋于促进年轻调查员的供应趋势。通过培训有才华的医生和研究人员在进行流行病学研究的严格方法中，维持我们对CVD的最新增长至关重要。为此，加州大学圣地亚哥分校（UCSD），家庭与预防医学系流行病学系提出了一项研究密集的跨学科培训计划，针对专门从事学术心血管流行病学和预防职业的受训者。此计划是为博士后和博士后研究员而设计的，他们对研究职业的陈述致力于专注于流行病学和预防CVD。在博士后的标准计划长度可以延长至3年，而博物前研究员则可以延长5年。该课程将集中在一个密集的多学科研究项目中，并根据研究员以前的培训程度包括适当的教学课程。该计划将整合圣地亚哥州立大学及其附属研究机构和中心的UCSD医学系和公共卫生研究生院（GSPH）的资源。这包括与该部门与GSPH合作管理的公共卫生流行病学和健康行为的现有联合博士课程的密切联系。由于致力于该计划的指导者的专业知识，经验和广度，融合跨学科方法的卓越研究经验存在丰富的机会。
