The long-term objective of The Ohio State University Child Health Research Center (OSU-CHRC) is to train new pediatric physician-scientists. Because of rapid advances in biomedical sciences during the past decade, there is a pressing need to speed the transfer of basic science discoveries to clinical applications that will benefit the health of children. As a large, multidisciplinary Department of Pediatrics at a hospital devoted solely to the care of children, we are ideally positioned to further this cause. The scientific theme of the OSU-CHRC will be molecular medicine in pediatrics. In this era of highly sophisticated molecular approaches to diagnosis and treatment of human diseases, it is the utmost importance that children benefit directly from scientific breakthroughs. Thus, the OSU-CHRC will train and support physician-scientists who use molecular approaches to further our understanding of diseases that affect children. A highly qualified faculty of 16 Established Investigators have joined the OSU-CHRC to serve as mentors for new pediatrician-scientists. These Established Investigators represent 13 distinct Departments and Programs from 3 separate Colleges at The Ohio State University. Thus, a key feature of the Center is its linkage to other Departments and Colleges throughout the University. All of the Established Investigators are supported by NIH or other competitively awarded grants. Collectively, the faculty have published over 400 manuscripts since 1990, and have mentored over 200 (past and current) pre-and post-doctoral (M.D. and Ph.D.) trainees. The research interests of the faculty are broad-based but have the common them of molecular approaches to problems relevant to health of children. The commitment of Children's Hospital and OSU to the OSU-CHRC is very strong and tangible. The institutions are contributing resources well in excess of the requested direct costs for the OSU-CHRC by reducing indirect cost charges, matching funds for research supplies and salaries, purchasing equipment for the Core Laboratory, and funding an invited speaker series. Considered together, these circumstances strongly support the notion that the Children's Hospital/OSU is an emerging center of excellence in pediatric research. Thus, it seems highly appropriate at this time to form the OSU-CHRC to provide support and mentoring for promising new physician- scientists interested in the health problems of children.

俄亥俄州立大学儿童健康的长期目标 研究中心(OSU-CHRC)是为了培养新的儿科内科医生-科学家。 由于过去十年生物医学科学的快速发展， 迫切需要加快基础科学的转移 将有益于健康的临床应用的发现 孩子们。作为一个大型的、多学科的儿科 我们是一家专门为儿童提供护理的医院，地理位置优越 来推进这一事业。 OSU-CHRC的科学主题将是#年的分子医学 儿科。在这个高度复杂的分子方法的时代 对人类疾病的诊断和治疗，它是至关重要的 儿童直接受益于科学突破。因此， 俄亥俄州立大学CHRC将培训和支持使用分子 促进我们对影响儿童的疾病的理解的方法。 一支由16名资深调查人员组成的高素质教职员工 加入俄亥俄州立大学-CHRC，担任新儿科医生-科学家的导师。 这些常设调查人员代表13个不同的部门和 来自俄亥俄州立大学3所不同学院的课程。因此，一个 该中心的主要特点是与其他部门和学院的联系 在整个大学里。所有成熟的调查人员都是 由美国国立卫生研究院或其他竞争性授予的赠款支持。总体而言， 自1990年以来，教职员工已经发表了400多篇手稿，并指导 超过200名(过去和现在)博士后和博士后(医学和博士) 实习生。教职员工的研究兴趣广泛，但有 与健康相关的问题的分子方法的共同之处 孩子们。 儿童医院和俄亥俄州立大学对俄亥俄州立大学CHRC的承诺非常 坚固而有形。这些机构在#年贡献了大量资源。 通过减少间接费用，超出OSU-CHRC要求的直接费用 成本费用，研究用品和工资的配套资金， 为核心实验室购买设备，并为邀请 扬声器系列。 综合考虑，这些情况有力地支持了这一概念 儿童医院/俄亥俄州立大学是一个新兴的卓越中心 儿科研究。因此，在这个时候，似乎非常适合形成 OSU-CHRC将为有前途的新医生提供支持和指导- 对儿童健康问题感兴趣的科学家。
