Center for Child Injury Prevention Science (C-ChIPS)

将举行一次计划会议，为儿童伤害预防科学中心（C-ChIPS）成为一个产业/大学合作研究中心。 它的使命将是通过对儿童受伤的普遍性和预测因素进行科学研究，以及评估、开发、测试和传播预防商业技术和公共教育方案，确保儿童的安全。 工作将建立在现有的合作，利用中心教师及其工业合作伙伴的能力，兴趣和专业知识。该中心的研究项目将涉及三个科学主题：安全监测和风险评估;危险评估和测试;以及预防技术开发。

A planning meeting will be held for the Center for Child Injury Prevention Science (C-ChIPS) to become an Industry/University Cooperative Research Center. Its mission will be to ensure the safety of children by conducting scientific research on the prevalence and predictors of child injury, and evaluation, development, testing and dissemination of commercial technology and public education programs for prevention. Work will build on existing collaborations that leverage the capabilities, interests, and expertise of the Center faculty and its industrial partners. The Center's research projects will address three scientific themes: Safety Monitoring and Risk Assessment; Hazard Evaluation and Testing; and Prevention Technology Development.
