项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests funding for the creation of an addiction research training fellowship for addiction medicine physicians. Despite the enormous burden of disease attributable to drug and alcohol addiction, there remain major challenges in implementing evidence-based prevention and treatment modalities for substance use disorders. In particular, while there have been remarkable advances in basic science and behavioral research in the area of addictions, there remains a serious shortage of addiction medicine clinician researchers with the ability to conduct clinical research on new treatment approaches and to implement research findings. As a result, despite the development of novel clinical strategies to diagnose and treat drug and alcohol addiction, many evidence-based tools remain greatly under-utilized. Low levels of understanding of addiction science among addiction care providers also creates barriers to the implementation of evidence-based public health programs. To address these issues, the goal of the proposed program is to provide addiction medicine physicians with a one-year intensive addiction research fellowship to develop the skills required for a career in addiction research. Specifically, the proposed fellowship seeks to develop a hands-on interdisciplinary research experience for addiction medicine physicians that builds upon major economies of scale attributable to an existing addiction medicine clinical training fellowship that has been accredited by the American Board of Addiction Medicine, as well as a well-established NIDA-funded research infrastructure and graduate student learning environment of basic science, qualitative, epidemiology and clinical research. Furthermore, the proposed fellowship seeks to provide addiction medicine physicians with research methods training, education in the ethical conduct of research, peer-reviewed publication and funding proposal development, presentation skills and career development training critical for designing and conducting studies on substance use disorders and related comorbidities, including the prevention and treatment of HIV among substance users. Finally, the proposed fellowship seeks to prospectively evaluate how a dedicated research training program for addiction medicine physicians contributes to subsequent ongoing research involvement and research productivity among the next generation of clinician scientists working in the area of substance use disorders. This proposal responds directly to the US National Institute on Drug Abuse's expressed "strong interest in supporting the development of clinical research expertise internationally." Accordingly, the work proposed herein is strongly aligned with the NIDA International Program's call for research education for addiction medicine physicians.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求资助为成瘾医学医师创建成瘾研究培训奖学金。尽管吸毒和酗酒造成了巨大的疾病负担，但在针对药物滥用障碍实施循证预防和治疗方式方面仍然存在重大挑战。特别是，虽然成瘾领域的基础科学和行为研究取得了显着进展，但仍严重缺乏有能力对新治疗方法进行临床研究并实施研究成果的成瘾医学临床研究人员。因此，尽管开发了新的临床策略来诊断和治疗药物和酒精成瘾，但许多基于证据的工具仍然没有得到充分利用。成瘾护理提供者对成瘾科学的了解水平较低也给实施循证公共卫生计划造成了障碍。为了解决这些问题，拟议计划的目标是为成瘾医学医生提供为期一年的强化成瘾研究奖学金，以培养成瘾研究职业所需的技能。具体来说，拟议的奖学金旨在为成瘾医学医生开发实践跨学科研究经验，该经验建立在主要规模经济的基础上，该经济归因于现有的成瘾医学临床培训奖学金，该奖学金已获得美国成瘾医学委员会的认可，以及NIDA 资助的完善的基础科学、定性、流行病学和临床研究研究基础设施和研究生学习环境。此外，拟议的奖学金旨在为成瘾医学医生提供研究方法培训、研究道德行为教育、同行评审出版物和资助提案制定、演讲技巧和职业发展培训，这对于设计和开展药物滥用障碍和药物滥用研究至关重要。相关合并症，包括药物使用者中艾滋病毒的预防和治疗。最后，拟议的奖学金旨在前瞻性地评估成瘾医学医生的专门研究培训计划如何有助于在物质使用障碍领域工作的下一代临床科学家的后续持续研究参与和研究生产力。该提案直接回应了美国国家药物滥用研究所表达的“支持国际临床研究专业知识发展的强烈兴趣”。因此，本文提出的工作与 NIDA 国际计划对成瘾医学医师研究教育的呼吁密切相关。
