DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests support for continuation of the Population Research Infrastructure Award to the Maryland Population Research Center (MPRC) at the University of Maryland (UMD). The Maryland Population Research Center is an interdisciplinary population research center at the University of Maryland-College Park that supports the research of 73 population researchers across 6 different schools or colleges and 17 departments. Over the next five-year period, MPRC will maintain its signature research themes of Gender, Family, and Social Change and Social and Economic Inequality, will expand its research in the area of Health in Social Context, and will invest in further development of a new theme, People and Place. MPRC associates will continue to contribute new data and methods for population research within these substantive themes. This application requests support for four cores that are central to increasing the pace and impact of population science research: Administrative, Computing, Information, and Development. The cores' missions are to meet the needs of population scientists and to foster an interdisciplinary environment. The administrative core will support the preparation of grant applications, post-award project management, and assist other cores. The Computing Core will manage the computing resources that are so essential to population research. It will expand the level of high-end computing and the capacity of the confidential data enclave to provide access to data sets that are restricted by their agency sources or that have potentially identifiable information on human subjects. MPRC's Information Core will expand the deployment of web-based tools to enhance Center activities, develop new access to geographic information systems and expertise, and provide scholars effective means of managing research collaborations and disseminating research. The Development Core will seed new activities aimed at groups of collaborators studying Immigration, Health, Neighborhoods, Population and Environment, and Gender and Family. Taking advantage of our location in the Washington, DC area, it will promote the research of our associates through linking to the research and data activities of federal agencies in the Washington, D.C.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求支持继续向马里兰州大学（UMD）的马里兰州人口研究中心（MPRC）颁发人口研究基础设施奖。马里兰州人口研究中心是马里兰大学帕克分校的一个跨学科人口研究中心，支持6所不同学校或学院和17个部门的73名人口研究人员的研究。在未来五年期间，MPRC将保持其性别，家庭和社会变革以及社会和经济不平等的标志性研究主题，将扩大其在社会背景下的健康领域的研究，并将投资于进一步发展一个新的主题，人和地方。 人口与发展研究中心的同事将继续在这些实质性主题范围内为人口研究提供新的数据和方法。该应用程序请求支持四个核心，这些核心对于提高人口科学研究的速度和影响力至关重要：行政，计算，信息和发展。这些核心的任务是满足人口科学家的需要，并促进跨学科环境。行政核心将支持准备赠款申请、授标后项目管理，并协助其他核心。计算核心将管理对人口研究至关重要的计算资源。它将扩大高端计算的水平和机密数据飞地的能力，以提供对受其机构来源限制的数据集或具有潜在可识别人类主体信息的数据集的访问。MPRC资料 核心将扩大部署基于网络的工具，以加强中心的活动，开发新的访问地理信息系统和专业知识，并为学者提供管理研究合作和传播研究的有效手段。发展核心将为研究移民、卫生、邻里、人口与环境以及性别与家庭的合作者群体开展新的活动。利用我们在华盛顿地区的地理位置，它将通过与华盛顿联邦机构的研究和数据活动的联系，促进我们的同事的研究。
