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）：流行病学研究学会 (SER) 是世界上最大、历史最悠久的流行病学学会，拥有约 2000 名会员，其中 250 名学生。该学会自成立以来一直肩负着两项简单而引人注目的使命：(1) 促进流行病学研究，(2) 以有意义的方式将学生和新研究人员与资深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 年以来一直赞助年度研讨会，让正在撰写论文的博士级学生与高级流行病学家和其他研究生进行互动，目的是提高他们的研究质量。这个为期 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 年度科学会议之前会面。研讨会的目的是为学生提供一个机会，让备受尊敬的资深流行病学家在支持性和建设性的氛围中对他们的论文研究进行审查、批评和讨论，这些流行病学家是富有成效的研究人员，拥有各种流行病学、临床和方法学专业知识。正在攻读流行病学博士学位课程的学生，无论其论文从设计到分析的任何阶段，都有资格参加本次研讨会。学生还将接受癌症流行病学和负责任的研究方面的培训。 SER 致力于消除代表性不足的少数族裔学生、妇女和需要家庭照顾的学生在参加研讨会时的参与障碍。二十五年来，该研讨会一直受到 NCI 资助的 R25 奖项的支持。此申请寻求 SER 学生研讨会的额外五年持续支持。没有其他机制可以为博士级流行病学家提供这种独特的经验。该研讨会由 SER 当选主席主持，作为当选官员职责的一部分。这一编纂进一步说明了学会致力于将学生与高级研究人员联系起来，并通过研讨会体现了这一承诺。该研讨会将由该应用程序的 PI Timothy Lash 联合主持，他是一位资深的癌症研究员、专家方法学家，目前是 SER 候任主席。为了保持连续性，Lash 博士将在五年内参与研讨会的规划、组织和举办的各个方面。他在美国和国外指导过博士项目，拥有成功培训癌症流行病学家的记录，并有两名学生获得 SER 学生奖。他非常适合确保 SER 学生研讨会通过提供外部见解继续发挥其培训癌症流行病学博士生的独特作用 这塑造了他们的研究。
