This application requests funding for a five-year period for the NORC/University of Chicago Population Research Center (PRC), directed by Kathleen Cagney. The PRC provides support to more than 40 faculty research associates who currently have over 100 funded research projects in our overarching theme of the role of human and social capital in the urban context. Our most important activities involve 1) connecting our associates; 2) enabling them to engage in new research; and 3) fostering research activities among our junior faculty, the future of the PRC. We seek continued funding for three core units: (1) an Administrative Support Core; (2) a Data and Computing Core; and (3) a Program Development Core. Together these three cores facilitate and support a large, influential, and diverse program of research. The Administrative Support Core consists of six service functions: application preparation; the Demography Workshop; desktop support services; dissemination services; office space; and strengthening the research community of PRC associates. The Information and Computing Core provides reliable, high performance computing services and consultation for GIS and spatial analysis, maintains a GIS and demographic data archive, and a secure data enclave for researchers to access confidential micro data not otherwise available remotely. The Program Development Core consists of an active program of pilot projects and support for new faculty research. The Center aims to foster an engaged, collaborative, multidisciplinary intellectual environment for research in demography and population research; to provide efficient and facilitative research support services; to encourage the development of new research projects and research foci in population research; and to facilitate collaborative research and teaching among scientists working in population studies.

本申请要求为芝加哥人口研究中心（PRC）提供为期五年的资助，由凯瑟琳·卡格尼（Kathleen Cagney）领导。中国为40多名教师研究助理提供支持，他们目前在城市背景下的人力和社会资本的作用这一总体主题上有100多个资助研究项目。我们最重要的活动是联系我们的同事；2)使他们能够从事新的研究；3)促进青年教师的研究活动，展望中国的未来。我们为三个核心单位寻求持续的资金：(1)行政支持核心；(2)数据和计算核心；(3)程序开发核心。这三个核心共同促进和支持了一个大型的、有影响力的、多样化的研究项目。行政支援核心包括六项服务功能：准备申请；人口讲习班；桌面支持服务；传播服务;办公空间;加强中国同行的研究社区。信息和计算核心为地理信息系统和空间分析提供可靠、高性能的计算服务和咨询，维护地理信息系统和人口统计数据档案，以及一个安全的数据飞地，供研究人员访问机密的微观数据，否则无法远程获得。项目发展核心包括积极的试点项目和对新教师研究的支持。该中心旨在为人口和人口研究的研究营造一个参与、协作、多学科的知识环境；提供高效率及便利的研究支援服务；鼓励在人口研究方面发展新的研究项目和研究重点；并促进从事人口研究的科学家之间的合作研究和教学。
