DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This is a proposal for a Women's Health and Aging: Clinical Scientist Development Program at the University of Wisconsin. The intent is to develop a cadre of researchers in the area of older women's health who are excellent scientists imbued with an interdisciplinary perspective, effective communicators, and managers of independent research programs. This program will provide salary support to young investigators at a critical juncture in their successful research careers. It will integrate well with the K30 Clinical Investigator Preparatory Pathway, which provides tuition support but not salary and with other training programs in older women's health that support research training below the junior faculty level. Indeed, the K12 is the next logical step in the systematic development of academic programs in women's health at the University of Wisconsin, and establishing this program meets one of the objectives of the NIA funded Women's Health Academic Leadership Award. The program, administered through the Center for Women's Health, will assure that each K12 investigator achieve the six core competencies needed to be an independent researcher: 1) research excellence, 2) statistics and study design, 3) research ethics, 4) leadership/management, 5) presentation and teaching, and 6) scientific writing. This will be accomplished through development of an individualized learning plan in conjunction with an intensive research experience with outstanding mentors. It will include a flexible didactic curriculum and guidance from a Leadership Team. Research mentors are active investigators in either The Basic Biology of Menopause and Post Menopausal Diseases or Clinical, Socio-demographic, and Epidemiologic Research in Mid- and Late-Life Aging Women with enormous potential for translational research and fertile interdisciplinary dialogue. All research mentors are in areas of investigation cited as priorities by the NIA in its Guide to Research and Training, July 2000. Both K12 investigators and the training program will be evaluated by multiple methods with the goal of continuous improvement. Aligned with the NIA's goals, considerable resources will be devoted to ensuring a diverse group of mentored scientists including a "grow your own" strategy for underrepresented minority investigators. Because women's health research draws predominantly women investigators, this program also addresses the NIH workforce priority of developing women leaders in biomedical and behavioral research.

描述（由申请人提供）：这是一个妇女健康和老龄化的建议：临床科学家发展计划在威斯康星州大学。其目的是培养一批老年妇女健康领域的研究人员，他们是具有跨学科视角的优秀科学家、有效的沟通者和独立研究方案的管理者。该计划将为处于成功研究生涯关键时刻的年轻研究人员提供工资支持。它将与K30临床研究者预备途径很好地结合起来，该途径提供学费支持，但不提供工资，并与老年妇女健康方面的其他培训方案结合起来，这些方案支持初级教师以下的研究培训。事实上，K12是威斯康星州大学妇女健康学术课程系统发展的下一个合乎逻辑的步骤，建立该计划符合NIA资助的妇女健康学术领导奖的目标之一。 该计划，通过妇女健康中心管理，将确保每个K12研究员实现所需的六个核心能力是一个独立的研究人员：1）卓越的研究，2）统计和研究设计，3）研究伦理，4）领导/管理，5）演示和教学，和6）科学写作。这将通过制定个性化的学习计划以及与优秀导师的深入研究经验来实现。它将包括一个灵活的教学课程和领导团队的指导。研究导师是积极的调查人员在更年期和绝经后疾病的基础生物学或临床，社会人口学和流行病学研究中的中年和老年妇女具有巨大的潜力转化研究和肥沃的跨学科对话。所有研究导师都在NIA在其2000年7月的《研究和培训指南》中列为优先事项的研究领域。K12研究者和培训计划将通过多种方法进行评估，以实现持续改进的目标。与NIA的目标相一致，将投入大量资源，以确保有一个多样化的指导科学家群体，包括为代表性不足的少数民族研究人员制定“自己成长”的战略。由于妇女的健康研究主要吸引女性研究人员，该计划还解决了美国国立卫生研究院的劳动力优先发展妇女领导人在生物医学和行为研究。
