描述（由申请人提供）：我们的NICHD CHRCDA，“基础和转化儿童健康研究培训计划”，将在科罗拉多丹佛大学安舒茨医学院医学院儿科进行。我们为我们的学者的总体目标是，他们将获得专业技能，为生产性的学术研究事业作为独立的调查人员和领导者谁将在儿童健康研究产生重大影响。我们将通过两个目标实现这一目标：1）我们将提供最高质量的，个人设计的培训和职业发展机会，专注于基础科学研究; 2）我们将提供培训经验，教育学者多学科，综合，团队科学，将基本发现转化为帮助解决，抢占和预防儿童健康重大问题的机会。我们的总体目标是，经过培训，我们的学者将获得专业技能，作为独立调查人员从事富有成效的学术研究事业，并将具有领导能力，在儿童健康研究领域产生重大影响，特别是在帮助做出基本发现，然后可以转化为改善临床实践，有益于儿童健康。为了实现这些目标和目的：1。我们将创建领导力和培训计划结构，通过指导（指导委员会）和指导（咨询委员会）建立：严格的标准和流程：招募学者、研究导师和个人学者咨询委员会;研究所需的属性和具体活动和职业发展培训;评估计划的各个方面2。我们将从最优秀的儿科住院医师、亚专业住院医师（“研究员”）和具有良好学术记录的初级教师中识别、招募和招募潜在学者，他们具有高度的积极性，并致力于在学术儿科学中建立一个独立的基础科学研究导向的职业生涯。3.我们将把学者纳入基础和转化科学研究指导关系与我们的全国知名的，优秀的研究教师，谁是公认的专家在各自的领域与卓越的记录，在研究培训和职业发展的年轻研究人员。4.我们将让学者参与广泛的研究和职业发展机会，包括基础和转化科学研究所需的现代技术。5.我们将制定优秀的指导，灵活，以人为本，严谨，具有挑战性的职业发展和教育计划，具有高标准的预期成绩和创造性的独立思考，优秀的科学沟通技能和负责任的专业行为的发展;持续的导师制将有助于确保成功过渡到研究独立性。6.我们将制定一项评估计划，通过频繁，严格审查学者和教师的成就，确保该计划的成功，并需要改善和/或满足新的研究和培训要求以及儿童健康研究领域的新挑战。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our NICHD CHRCDA, "Training Program in Basic and Translational Child Health Research," will be conducted at the University of Colorado Denver Anschutz Medical Campus, School of Medicine, Department of Pediatrics. Our overall Goal for our Scholars is that they will acquire professional skills for productive academic research careers as independent investigators and leaders who will make significant impacts in Child Health Research. We will meet this goal with two aims: 1) we will provide the highest quality, personally designed training and career development opportunities focused in basic science research; 2) we will provide training experiences that will educate the Scholars in multidisciplinary, integrated, team science required for translation of basic discoveries into opportunities to help solve, preempt, and prevent major problems in child health. Our OVERALL GOAL is that after their training, our Scholars will have acquired the professional skills for productive academic research careers as independent investigators and will have the leadership capacity to make significant impacts in the field of Child Health Research, particularly in helping to make basic discoveries that then can be translated into improved clinical practice that benefits the health of children. To achieve these objectives and goal: 1. We will create leadership and training program structure that will establish through direction (steering committee) and guidance (advisory committee): rigorous criteria and processes for: recruitment of scholars, research mentors, and individual scholar advisory committees; required attributes and specific activities of research and career development training; evaluation of all aspects of the program 2. We will identify, recruit, and enlist potential Scholars from the most exceptional pediatric residents, subspecialty residents ("fellows"), and junior faculty with strong academic records who are highly motivated and committed to establishing an independent basic science research-oriented career in academic pediatrics. 3. We will place Scholars into basic and translational science research mentored relationships with our nationally-renowned, outstanding research faculty, who are recognized as experts in their fields with proven records of excellence in research training and career development of young investigators. 4. We will involve the Scholars in a broad array of research and career development opportunities that encompass the spectrum of modern techniques needed for basic and translational science research. 5. We will develop excellently mentored, flexible, scholar-oriented, rigorous, and challenging Career Development and Education Programs with high standards for expected accomplishments and development of creative independent thinking, excellent science communication skills, and responsible professional conduct; on-going mentorship will help to ensure successful transition to research independence. 6. We will develop an Evaluation Program that will ensure, through frequent, rigorous review of scholar and faculty accomplishments, the success of the program and needs to improve and/or meet new research and training requirements and new challenges in the field of child health research.
