The objective of the Career Development Program is to recruit investigators at early stages of their careers into research focused on potential biothreat pathogens. This research includes the basic biology of the organisms, immune responses to these agents, developmental research that will eventuate in novel vaccines, therapeutics, or diagnostics, and clinical investigation involving studies of vaccine efficacy in defined patient populations. Junior Faculty Research Project awards are intended to attract faculty researchers, who are in the process of establishing their research areas of interest and expertise, into biodefense-related investigations. The Junior Faculty Research Projects will fund investigators intending to make a serious commitment to these investigational areas, and whose projects have the potential subsequently to compete successfully for traditional National Institutes of Health (NIH) funding. The Postdoctoral Fellowship Awards are also intended to attract researchers, who are in the process of establishing their research areas of interest and expertise, into biodefense-related investigations. Each trainee works on a research project under an established investigator from among the institutions currently within the NBC, or an investigator from any institution within NIH Region II having a funded program that provides an appropriate research training environment. The fellows are expected to develop independence in experimental design, technical proficiency, mastery of the literature related to the project, and be prepared at the conclusion of the fellowship period to undertake original research. In addition, the NBC will continue to fund Group Career Development Activities. For year one, the Career Development Program will mount a national conference inviting Junior Faculty "alumni" from all ten Regions who have received support through their Regions' Career Development Programs. Postdoctoral Fellows supported by the Programs who have gained faculty positions and initiated independent research programs will also be invited. The purpose of the conference will be to gain insight into how this support has contributed to the development of their research careers, with the intent being to modify the Programs if and where necessary. Future group activities will include core workshops, training experience for emergency planning and exercising for high risk laboratories, and training program courses in the biology and laboratory handling of select agents.

职业发展计划的目标是在调查员职业生涯的早期阶段招聘他们 研究潜在的生物威胁病原体这项研究包括基础生物学的 生物体，对这些药剂的免疫反应，将在新的 疫苗、治疗剂或诊断剂，以及涉及疫苗效力研究的临床研究， 明确患者人群。初级教师研究项目奖旨在吸引教师 研究人员，谁是在建立自己的研究领域的兴趣和专业知识的过程中， 生物防御相关调查。初级教师研究项目将资助研究人员打算 认真致力于这些研究领域，其项目具有潜力 随后成功地竞争传统的国立卫生研究院（NIH）的资金。的 博士后奖学金也旨在吸引研究人员，他们正在研究 确定他们感兴趣的研究领域和专业知识，并将其纳入生物防御相关的调查。每个 受训人员在现有机构的一名既定调查员的指导下从事一项研究项目 在NBC内，或NIH区域II内任何机构的研究人员，其资助的项目 提供合适的研究培训环境。希望研究员们能够培养独立性 在实验设计方面，熟练掌握技术，掌握项目相关文献，并能做好准备 在奖学金期结束时进行原创性研究。 此外，NBC将继续资助集团职业发展活动。第一年，职业生涯 发展计划将举办一次全国会议，邀请来自所有十个地区的初级学院“校友” 通过其所在地区的职业发展计划获得支持。博士后研究员 由获得教师职位并启动独立研究项目的项目支持 也将受到邀请。会议的目的将是深入了解这种支持如何 有助于他们的研究事业的发展，目的是修改程序，如果和 在必要的时候。未来的小组活动将包括核心讲习班、紧急情况培训经验、 高风险实验室的规划和实施，以及生物学和实验室的培训计划课程 选择代理人的处理。
