DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Funds are requested to establish a BIRCWH program at the University of Pennsylvania to increase the number of independent investigators in women's health and gender biology utilizing multidisciplinary research paradigms. The proposed program will have a steady state of 5 IWHR Scholars. It will benefit from the pre-existing Center for Research on Reproduction and Women's Health and Center of Excellence in Women' s Health (CRRWH-COE), which provides umbrella support for research, training and educational activities relevant to women's health. Individuals holding the M.D., Ph.D. or equivalent degrees that have completed clinical fellowship or post-doctoral training will be nominated or recruited for IWHR Scholarships by academic units. Scholars will be selected by the BIRCWH Advisory Committee based on past academic and research accomplishments, commitment to women's health, and the relevance of their research interests to the field. Individualized career development plans will be formulated in collaboration with a designated research mentor. Scholars will be expected pursue a research program leading to independence, with space and additional funding for start-up costs being provided by the nominating academic unit during the transition to independence. Scholars will participate in required BIRCWH activities including bi-monthly "chalk talks" and a writing and grant preparation workshop as well as other academic enrichment activities offered in their chosen research discipline as well as the programs of the CRRWH-COE. CRRWH-COE core facilities and support functions as well as CRRWH-COE pilot grant support will be available to all Scholars. The BIRCWH Advisory Committee will monitor the progress of Scholars on a periodic basis with guidance from the research mentor. IWHR Scholars will relinquish support from the BIRCWH program when they receive an R01 or equivalent grant as principal investigator. The success of the BIRCWH program will be measured in the short term by the Scholars' progress in gaining research skills, their research productivity, the visibility of their work in their chosen fields, and the attainment of independent investigator status with extramural funding. The long-term impact of this program on women's health research can only be traced beyond the scope of the initial period of support. The BIRCWH program will track the career trajectories of Scholars and will continue to serve as a resource in terms of career counseling and research advice.

描述(由申请者提供)：申请资金在宾夕法尼亚大学建立BIRCWH项目，利用多学科研究范式增加妇女健康和性别生物学方面的独立调查人员的数量。拟议的方案将有5名IWHR学者的稳定状态。它将受益于现有的生殖与妇女健康研究中心和S妇女健康英才中心，该中心为与妇女健康有关的研究、培训和教育活动提供伞式支持。已完成临床研究员或博士后培训的拥有医学博士、博士或同等学位的个人将被学术单位提名或招募参加IWHR奖学金。BIRCWH咨询委员会将根据过去的学术和研究成就、对妇女健康的承诺以及她们的研究兴趣与该领域的相关性来挑选学者。将与指定的研究导师合作制定个性化的职业发展计划。预计学者将从事导致独立的研究计划，在向独立的过渡期间，提名学术单位将为启动费用提供空间和额外资金。学者将参加BIRCWH所需的活动，包括每两个月一次的“粉笔讲座”和写作和拨款准备研讨会，以及在他们选择的研究学科中提供的其他学术丰富活动，以及CRRWH-COE的计划。CRRWH-COE的核心设施和支持功能以及CRRWH-COE试点赠款将向所有学者提供。BIRCWH咨询委员会将在研究导师的指导下，定期监测学者项目的进展情况。当IWHR学者作为首席研究员获得R01或同等资助金时，他们将放弃BIRCWH计划的支持。BIRCWH计划的成功将在短期内由学者们在获得研究技能方面的进展、他们的研究生产率、他们在所选领域的工作可见度以及在外部资金下获得独立研究员的地位来衡量。这一方案对妇女健康研究的长期影响只能追溯到最初的支持范围之外。BIRCWH计划将跟踪学者的职业轨迹，并将继续作为职业咨询和研究建议方面的资源。
