We believe that PCORT has sufficient research and training opportunities to provide a comprehensive research training experience, and that our success - and the success of our trainees - justifies this request for continued funding. Funding will allow continued recruitment of 2 new M. Because all trainees spend a minimum of 2 years in the Program, we will maintain a total of 6 trainees in the Program at all times.
We will recruit individuals wit diverse prior research experience and training, and will integrate all trainees into a highly collaborative research environment. We will also actively recruit highly qualified minority and women applicants to the program.
The Program has 3 components: 1 a specialized curriculum;2 active participation in other didactic experiences;and, 3 mentored, multidisciplinary cancer-related outcomes research.
The specialized curriculum involves weekly seminars, including both didactic lectures and """"""""research-in-progress"""""""" presentations by trainees and faculty. The PCE is an intensive, seven-week, 15 credit classroom-based program that includes required courses in epidemiology and biostatistics, as well as a variety of electives.
Trainees are encouraged to enroll in or may audit additional courses throughout the Harvard University system that are appropriate for their level of training. Virtuall all M. Trainees spend the largest part of their time participating in mentored cancer outcomes research under the supervision of PCORT mentors. All projects are multidisciplinary and highly collaborative. A commitment to health disparities in research is an integrated and cross-cutting theme.
Current events have underscored underlying disparities in our social structure and the impact of these disparities on health outcomes, including those of cancer. Our program prioritizes the development of skills necessary to achieving an independent, interdisciplinary, and externally funded program of research in cancer prevention and control. To this end, our program strongly supports skill development in manuscript and grant writing. The T32 program will be flexible enough to address the educational needs of individuals from different academic home disciplines but formalized enough to ensure that participants achieve high levels of content knowledge and acquire intensive research experience by the time they complete their studies.
Predoctoral fellows are allowed a maximum of three years of support and postdoctoral fellows receive two or three years of support, depending on an evaluation of their progress.
