DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Washington Center for Studies in Demography and Ecology requests a continuation of the Population Research Infrastructure Award first received in 2002. For many years, CSDE has been the intellectual center of a diverse group of population scientists at UW. After a period of dramatic growth made possible by our initial funding from NICHD and strong institutional support, CSDE now supports a cohesive research community of 55 researchers at UW (including sociologists, economists, psychologists, geographers, anthropologists, and statisticians) anchored by a weekly seminar series, collaborative projects, and access to state-of-the-art technical and administrative services. CSDE researchers also include 20 regional affiliates from Western Washington University, the University of Victoria, and Battelle Institute. CSDE's research portfolio is notably broad and innovative, with projects contributing to five signature themes: Family Demography; Migrants, Minorities, and Unequal Opportunities; Social and Biological Contexts of Population Health; Population-Environment Dynamics; and Demographic Methods. The advancement of these themes towards a greater integration of demography with biological and environmental science has been fostered by CSDE scholars' extensive institutional and intellectual links beyond the social sciences, including UW's renowned biomedical and natural science programs. The proposed infrastructure award will support the services provided by the successful Adminstrative, Computing, Statistics, Information, and Biodemography Cores, as well as a new Developmental Infrastructure Core designed to support pilot work that can lead to extramurally-funded research, assist the career development of new population scientists and encourage interdisciplinary collaborative projects that explore new research directions. A major expansion of the Statistics Core will provide expertise in spatial analysis to a wide range of projects with rich spatial data. The research infrastructure services provided by CSDE have increased the quality and breadth of research in population and public health at UW and in the Northwest, and have cultivated the next generation of researchers. Proposed new initiatives will further enhance the research environment and the capabilities of CSDE researchers.

描述（由申请人提供）：华盛顿大学人口与生态学研究中心要求延续2002年首次获得的人口研究基础设施奖。多年来，CSDE一直是UW人口科学家的知识中心。经过一段时间的戏剧性增长，我们从NICHD的初始资金和强大的机构支持成为可能，CSDE现在支持一个有凝聚力的研究社区的55名研究人员在华盛顿大学（包括社会学家，经济学家，心理学家，地理学家，人类学家和统计学家）锚定每周研讨会系列，合作项目，并获得最先进的技术和管理服务。CSDE的研究人员还包括来自西华盛顿大学、维多利亚大学和巴特尔研究所的20个地区分支机构。CSDE的研究组合是非常广泛和创新的，项目有助于五个签名主题：家庭人口;移民，少数民族和不平等的机会;人口健康的社会和生物背景;人口环境动态;和人口统计方法。这些主题朝着人口统计学与生物和环境科学更大的整合的进步已经由CSDE学者的广泛的机构和智力联系超越社会科学，包括UW著名的生物医学和自然科学计划。拟议的基础设施奖将支持成功的行政，计算，统计，信息和生物人口学核心提供的服务，以及一个新的发展基础设施核心，旨在支持试点工作，可以导致额外资助的研究，协助新的人口科学家的职业发展，并鼓励探索新的研究方向的跨学科合作项目。统计核心的重大扩展将为具有丰富空间数据的各种项目提供空间分析方面的专门知识。CSDE提供的研究基础设施服务提高了华盛顿大学和西北部人口和公共卫生研究的质量和广度，并培养了下一代研究人员。拟议的新举措将进一步改善研究环境和CSDE研究人员的能力。
