DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Society for Epidemiologic Research (SER) is the largest and oldest epidemiology society in the world with approximately 2000 members, 250 of whom are students. The society has held the same two simple and compelling missions since its founding: (1) foster epidemiologic research, and (2) connect students and new researchers with senior epidemiologists in a meaningful way. As a substantial part of its second main mission, SER has since 1977 continuously sponsored an annual workshop where doctoral-level students working on dissertations interact with senior epidemiologists and other graduate students, with the goal of improving the quality of their research. This 1.5-day in-depth student workshop includes 12 students who meet before the SER annual scientific meeting in June of each year. The workshop's purpose is to provide students with an opportunity to have their dissertation research reviewed, critiqued, and discussed in a supportive and constructive atmosphere by highly respected senior epidemiologists who are productive researchers and who have a variety of epidemiologic, clinical, and methodological expertise. Students enrolled in a doctoral degree program in epidemiology, who are working on any phase of their dissertation, from design to analysis, are eligible to participate in this workshop. Students will also receive training in cancer epidemiology and in the responsible conduct of research. SER endeavors to remove barriers to participation by underrepresented minority students, women, and students in need of family care while participating in the workshop. For twenty-five years the workshop was supported by an NCI-funded R25 award. This application seeks continued support of the SER Student Workshop for an additional five years. No other mechanism exists to provide this type of unique experience to doctoral-level epidemiologists. The workshop is chaired by the President-Elect of SER as a codified aspect of this elected officer's responsibilities. This codification further illustrates the society's commitment to connecting students with senior researchers, and its manifestation of this commitment through the workshop. The workshop will be co-Chaired by Timothy Lash, the PI of this application, who is an established cancer researcher, expert methodologist, and is currently the SER President-Elect. To provide continuity, Dr. Lash will for five years participate in all aspects of planning, organizing, and holding the workshop. He has directed doctoral programs in the US and abroad, has a track record of successfully training cancer epidemiologists, and has had two students receive the SER Student Prize. He is ideally suited to assuring that the SER student workshop continues in its unique role of training doctoral students in cancer epidemiology by providing external insights that shape their research.

描述（由申请人提供）：流行病学研究协会（SER）是世界上最大，最古老的流行病学学会，大约有2000名成员，其中250名是学生。自成立以来，该协会已经执行了相同的两项简单而引人注目的任务：（1）促进流行病学研究，以及（2）以有意义的方式将学生和新研究人员与高级流行病学家联系起来。作为其第二个主要任务的重要组成部分，SER自1977年以来一直在赞助一个年度研讨会，博士学位的学生与高级流行病学家和其他研究生互动，目的是提高他们的研究质量。这个1.5天的深入学生研讨会包括12名学生，他们在每年6月的SER年度科学会议上开会。讲习班的目的是为学生提供论文研究的机会，并在支持性和建设性的氛围中审查，批评和讨论，由备受尊敬的高级流行病学家，他们是有生产力的研究人员，并且具有各种流行病学，临床和方法论专业知识。从设计到分析的任何阶段，都有在学位论文的任何阶段工作的流行病学博士学位课程的学生都有资格参加该研讨会。学生还将接受癌症流行病学的培训和负责任的研究。努力消除代表性不足的少数民族学生，妇女和需要家庭护理的学生参与的障碍，同时参加研讨会。在25年的时间里，该研讨会得到了NCI资助的R25奖的支持。该申请寻求SER学生研讨会的持续支持五年。没有其他机制为博士级流行病学家提供这种独特的体验。该研讨会由SER总统作为该当选官员责任的编纂方面主持。这种编纂进一步说明了社会对将学生与高级研究人员联系起来的承诺，以及通过研讨会对这一承诺的表现。该研讨会将由本申请的PI蒂莫西·拉什（Timothy Lash）共同主持。为了提供连续性，Lash博士将五年参与计划，组织和举行研讨会的各个方面。他曾在美国和国外指导博士课程，并有成功培训癌症流行病学家的记录，并有两个学生获得了SER学生奖。理想情况下，他可以确保SER学生研讨会通过提供外部见解，继续其在癌症流行病学中培训博士生的独特作用 那塑造了他们的研究。
