Project Summary Because of widespread concerns about health care quality and safety, disparities in access and outcomes for vulnerable populations, and the desire to rapidly move evidence-based therapies into practice, there is a critical need to train and develop a highly competent, multidisciplinary workforce of future leaders in health services research (HSR). This application proposes to build on a nine-year history of successful joint training programs and research collaborations to launch a new University of Chicago And Northwestern University Postdoctoral HSR Program, referred to as the “UCANU Postdoctoral HSR Program”, which will use an innovative, competency-based curriculum to train candidates from diverse personal and professional backgrounds in traditional HSR, learning health system methods, implementation science, health disparities research, data science, and systems science. Our robust, comprehensive training architecture incorporates didactics, mentored research, and professional development activities that maximize the complementary strengths of University of Chicago (UC) and Northwestern University (NU) in the diverse metropolitan city of Chicago. Together, we will train the next generation of health services researchers who will conduct and lead rigorous, reproducible health services research using both experimental and observational study designs and quantitative, qualitative, and mixed methods research. To achieve this goal, we will: (1) administer a two-institution (UC and NU) training program that integrates numerous complementary resources for training and career development, including didactics, conferences (including joint seminars with all UCANU trainees and faculty), mentoring, and other professional development activities; and (2) leverage the exceptional expertise of faculty mentors at both institutions to ensure that fellows attain the knowledge, skills, and experiences required to transition into careers that sustain innovative, independently-funded health services research. Our program will invite applications from a diverse pool of candidates who have completed a PhD or clinical doctoral training and residency or fellowship (e.g., MD, DPT), and it will support the training of four positions per year (two at UC, two at NU). Fellows will have their primary home at the institution that best fits their needs for faculty mentorship and training, including access to graduate degree programs. Fellows may earn a Master of Science in Public Health Sciences for Clinical Professionals at UC or a Master of Science in Health Services and Outcomes Research at NU. An advisory board will oversee all training along with a Postdoctoral HSR Program Steering Committee that intentionally includes leadership and faculty mentors from both NU and UC to optimize coordination and collaboration between the two sites. Over the next five years, we will leverage the vast, remarkable strengths of our combined universities to train and prepare the next generation of diverse scientists whose careers will employ the power of rigorous and innovative HSR to improve healthcare delivery and access, increase implementation of evidence, maximize health outcomes, and eliminate health disparities.

项目摘要 由于对医疗保健质量和安全性的关注，因此访问和结果的分布 脆弱的人群以及迅速将循证疗法迈向实践的愿望，有一个关键 需要培训并培养未来领导者卫生服务领导者的高能力，多学科的劳动力 研究（HSR）。这项申请提案是基于成功的联合培训计划的九年历史 和研究合作，以启动新的芝加哥大学和西北大学博士后 HSR计划，称为“ UCANU PostDoctoral HSR计划”，该计划将使用创新， 基于能力的课程，培训来自潜水员个人和专业背景的候选人 传统的高铁，学习卫生系统方法，实施科学，健康差异研究，数据 科学和系统科学。我们强大，全面的培训体系结构结合了教学，指导了 研究和专业发展活动，最大程度地提高大学的完善优势 芝加哥（UC）和西北大学（NU）位于芝加哥潜水员城市。在一起，我们会的 培训下一代的卫生服务研究人员，他们将进行严格，可重复的健康 使用实验和观察性研究设计以及定量，定性以及 混合方法研究。为了实现这一目标，我们将：（1）进行两机构（UC和NU）培训 集成了许多用于培训和职业发展的完整资源的计划，包括 教学，会议（包括与所有UCANU学员和教师的联合半手），心理和其他 专业发展活动； （2）利用两者的教师导师的卓越专业知识 机构以确保研究员获得过渡到职业所需的知识，技能和经验 维持创新的，独立资助的卫生服务研究。我们的计划将邀请申请 已经完成了博士学位或临床博士培训和居住或奖学金的潜水员候选人库 （例如，医学博士，DPT），它将支持每年四个职位的培训（UC两个，两个在NU）。研究员会 在机构中拥有最适合其教师精神和培训需求的机构的主要住所，包括 获得研究生学位课程。研究员可能会赢得公共卫生科学硕士 UC的临床专业人员或NU的卫生服务和成果研究科学硕士。一个 顾问委员会将与博士后HSR计划指导委员会一起监督所有培训 故意包括NU和UC的领导力和教师导师，以优化协调和 两个站点之间的协作。在接下来的五年中，我们将利用 我们合并的大学训练和准备下一代潜水员的科学家，他们的职业将雇用 严格和创新的hsr的力量改善医疗保健交付和获取，增加实施 证据，最大的健康结果并消除健康差异。
