DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of the Brown University BIRCWH Career Development Program is to promote the performance of interdisciplinary research and transfer of findings that will benefit the health of women through the development of well-qualified women's health investigators. The program will achieve this goal by accomplishing the following objectives: (1) Provide each Interdisciplinary Women's Health Research scholar with a curriculum tailored to his/her scientific research development needs and interests. Courses will be offered in statistical methods, research design, conduct of research, women's health and gender issues, pathobiology, scientific publishing, grant writing, and additional "tools" necessary to become a successful independent investigator in women's health; (2) Provide each scholar with an intensive exposure to interdisciplinary women's health research and a suitable mentor who can provide the guidance and expertise to assure successful academic development; (3) Provide the research infrastructure (laboratory and research assistants, methodologists, data managers, and statistical support) and adequate protected time to create an environment conducive to investigation into women's health. The program will take advantage of the existing strengths of the Departments of Molecular Microbiology and Immunology and Molecular Biology, Cell Biology and Biochemistry, and Community Health at Brown University, Brown Medical School and its affiliated hospitals, Women & Infants Hospital Division of Research and George Anderson Outcomes Measurement Unit, the Woods Hole Marie Biological Laboratory, the National Perinatal Information Center, and the Cancer Prevention Research Center at the University of Rhode Island. Potential research projects focus in the following five major areas with applications in women's health: (1) Prevention and Behavior Change; (2) Gender Issues in Women's Health; (3) Health Services Research, Epidemiology and Biostatistics; (4) HIV and AIDS in Women; and (5) Obstetric and Gynecologic Research, including perinatal diagnosis and management, screening in early pregnancy, translational immunology, and developmental biology and cell dynamics. This interdisciplinary and cross-institutional program will provide a new cadre of academic investigators who will further the scientific database and improved the health status of women.

描述（由申请人提供）：布朗大学BIRCWH职业发展计划的目标是促进跨学科研究的表现和研究结果的转移，这将有利于妇女的健康，通过发展合格的妇女健康调查。该方案将通过实现以下目标来实现这一目标：（1）为每一位跨学科妇女健康研究学者提供适合其科学研究发展需要和兴趣的课程。将提供统计方法、研究设计、研究的进行、妇女健康和性别问题、病理生物学、科学出版、补助金的撰写以及成为妇女健康方面成功的独立调查员所需的其他“工具”等课程;（二）为每位学者提供深入接触跨学科妇女健康研究的机会，并提供合适的导师，他们可以提供指导和专业知识，（3）提供研究基础设施（实验室和研究助理、方法学家、数据管理员和统计支持）和充足的保护时间，以创造一个有利于调查妇女健康的环境。该计划将利用布朗大学分子微生物学、免疫学和分子生物学、细胞生物学和生物化学以及社区卫生系、布朗医学院及其附属医院、妇女与婴儿医院研究部和乔治安德森结局测量单位、伍兹霍尔玛丽生物实验室、国家围产期信息中心、和罗得岛大学癌症预防研究中心。潜在的研究项目集中在以下五个主要领域，并应用于妇女健康：（1）预防和行为改变;（2）妇女健康中的性别问题;（3）保健服务研究、流行病学和生物统计学;（4）妇女中的艾滋病毒和艾滋病;和（5）妇产科研究，包括围产期诊断和管理，妊娠早期筛查，转化免疫学，以及发育生物学和细胞动力学。这一跨学科和跨机构的方案将提供一个新的学术研究人员的干部，他们将进一步的科学数据库和改善妇女的健康状况。
