ABSTRACT Oral diseases pose a major health challenge globally and affect people throughout their lifetime. These diseases share common risk factors with other major Chronic Non-communicable Diseases and Disorders (NCDs). The well-established oral-systemic health connections also indicate that prevention and treatment of oral diseases is a critical component in maintaining good general health and well-being. Yet, due to the lack of personnel, access to training, knowledge of research methods, and funding, oral health care and research is still limited in Southeast Asia. The large diversities in the geography, social structure and cultures in Southeast Asian nations emphasize the need for locally relevant research to identify risk factors and oral health management strategies that would be effective in each country. The goal of this application is to sustainably strengthen the oral health research capacity among LMICs in Southeast Asia by establishing a training hub in Thailand and fostering a network of regional researchers. The plan proposes to build upon and expand two established training programs “Clinical, Public Health, and Behavioral Oral Health Research Training for Thailand” (D43TW007768 and D43TW009071, PI: DeRouen), which have been collaborative efforts between the University of Washington School of Dentistry (UW) and affiliated Faculties of Dentistry at Khon Kaen University (KKU) and Thammasat University (TU) in Thailand. Dr. Waranuch Pitiphat, Dean of KKU Faculty of Dentistry, the Director of this Program (PD) was a major collaborator and Associate Director of the previous training programs. The proposed program will also include 4 major collaborating institutions: University of Indonesia, University of Malaya, University of Philippines Manila, and Can Tho University of Medicine and Pharmacy in Vietnam. Five levels of training are being proposed: (1) Short-term training. A series of 5-day workshops on clinical research methods, conducted in Thailand or other Southeast Asian countries annually (n=120 total); (2) Intermediate-term training. An 8-week program at the UW COHO Institute in Clinical Research Methods in Seattle. The trainees will participate in the program online for 6 weeks and in Seattle for 2 weeks (n=18 total); (3) Medium-term training. A Short Course Training in Research Methodology & Biostatistics offered annually at KKU in Thailand. This is an intensive program in which the trainees will take didactic courses and develop an individual research proposal at the end of the 4-month course (n=20 total). Medium-term trainees can apply for the next level of training; (4) Non-degree research training. A research fellowship program allows the trainees to do research in home country under guidance of a local mentor as well as UW and Thai faculty (n=16 total); (5) Long-term training. The program will support five dentists from Southeast Asia to pursue PhD in Oral Sciences at the two Thai universities. After completing 1-year coursework in Thailand, PhD students will attend the Summer Institute in Seattle and work with UW mentors to develop a dissertation research proposal to be carried out in their home country.

抽象的 口腔疾病在全球范围内构成重大健康挑战，并影响人们的一生。 与其他主要慢性非传染性疾病和紊乱 (NCD) 具有共同的危险因素。 良好的口腔系统健康联系也表明，口腔疾病的预防和治疗是重要的 维持总体健康和福祉的一个关键组成部分，然而，由于缺乏人员，无法获得。 在培训、研究方法知识和资金方面，东南部地区的口腔保健和研究仍然有限 亚洲。东南亚国家的地理、社会结构和文化的巨大多样性凸显了这一点。 需要进行与当地相关的研究以确定风险因素和口腔健康管理策略 该应用程序的目标是持续加强口腔健康研究。 通过在泰国建立培训中心并培育网络，提高东南亚中低收入国家的能力 该计划建议建立并扩展两个既定培训计划“临床、 泰国公共卫生和行为口腔健康研究培训”（D43TW007768 和 D43TW009071， PI：DeRouen），这是华盛顿大学牙科学院之间的合作努力 威斯康星大学 (UW) 以及孔敬大学 (KKU) 和法政大学 (TU) 的附属牙科学院 泰国 KKU 牙科学院院长、该项目 (PD) 主任 Waranuch Pitiphat 博士是 先前培训计划的主要合作者和副主任也将。 包括4个主要合作院校：印度尼西亚大学、马来亚大学、菲律宾大学 马尼拉和越南芹苴医药大学正在进行五个级别的培训。 建议： (1) 一系列为期 5 天的临床研究方法研讨会。 泰国或其他东南亚国家每年（共120人）；（2）中期培训，为期8周。 西雅图 UW COHO 临床研究方法研究所的项目 学员将参加 在线课程 6 周，西雅图 2 周（总共 18 人）； (3) 中期培训。 泰国 KKU 每年提供研究方法和生物统计学培训。这是一项强化培训。 学员将参加教学课程并在最后制定个人研究计划的计划 为期4个月的课程（共20人）可以申请下一级别的培训；（4）非学位培训； 研究培训计划允许学员在本国进行研究。 当地导师以及华盛顿大学和泰国教师的指导（总共 16 名）； (5) 长期培训。 After 将支持五名来自东南亚的牙医在两​​所泰国大学攻读口腔科学博士学位。 在泰国完成一年的课程后，博士生将前往西雅图参加暑期学院并工作 与威斯康星大学导师一起制定要在其祖国进行的论文研究计划。
