DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Women's Reproductive Health Research (WRHR) Center, a career development program for obstetrician gynecologists, was established at the University of Washington in 1998. The aim of the WRHR program at the University of Washington (UW WRHR) is to foster the education, training and scientific development of obstetrician gynecologists who demonstrate clear research potential and are committed to a career in academic medicine. Our long-term goal is to improve women's health. The program has successfully trained 6 individuals, with 3 additional scholars in training. This proposal describes a plan for continuation of the UW WRHR program. The goal remains a commitment to bridge the gap between clinical and research training to enable young physicians to establish research careers tailored to their specific interests and to become independent investigators. Proposed training is a multidisciplinary mentored experience for 2-5 years. During this period, a scholar devotes 80% of his/her time to research. The program aims to recruit individuals from other institutions and to recruit individuals from underserved backgrounds. The UW WRHR is unique in offering a broad menu of scientific disciplines and training environments designed to create the best opportunities for trainees. We have a distinguished group of 18 mentors with expertise in a diverse spectrum of specialties ranging from genomics to global health - with investigation in obstetrics, gynecology, and women's reproductive health research as the core activity. Particular strengths include: reproductive immunology, infectious disease, medical genetics, global health (e.g., HIV/AIDS, malaria), prematurity, behavioral medicine, cancer epidemiology, and placental pharmacokinetics. We believe that through partnerships with outstanding scientists in disciplines that lie outside of the traditional boundaries of obstetrics and gynecology (e.g., gynecologic oncology, perinatal medicine and reproductive endocrinology), our scholars have the greatest opportunity to achieve their scientific potential, build unique and successful interdisciplinary careers, and advance the cause to improve the health and well-being of women and their families. The Ob/Gyn Department and the School of Medicine at UW are prepared to make major commitments to support continuation of the UW WRHR program. PUBLIC RELEVANCE: The UW WRHR Program plans to promote diversity in the approach, originality in the execution, and vision in the direction of training women's reproductive health researchers and thus foster the development of a national resource that grows and trains future generations of Ob/Gyn clinician-scientists. The novel multidisciplinary approach proposed is most apt to be successful in answering questions of greatest merit, with the greatest possibility of significantly impacting the health of all women.

描述（由申请人提供）：妇女生殖健康研究（WRHR）中心，妇产科医生的职业发展计划，成立于1998年在华盛顿大学。在华盛顿大学（UW WRHR）的WRHR计划的目的是促进教育，培训和妇产科医生的科学发展，他们表现出明确的研究潜力，并致力于学术医学事业。我们的长期目标是改善妇女的健康。该方案已成功培训了6人，另有3名学者正在接受培训。该提案描述了UW WRHR计划的延续计划。其目标仍然是致力于弥合临床和研究培训之间的差距，使年轻医生能够建立适合其特定兴趣的研究职业生涯，并成为独立的研究者。拟议的培训是2-5年的多学科指导经验。在此期间，学者将80%的时间用于研究。该计划旨在从其他机构招募人员，并从服务不足的背景中招募人员。UW WRHR在提供广泛的科学学科和培训环境方面是独一无二的，旨在为学员创造最佳机会。我们有一个由18位导师组成的杰出团队，他们拥有从基因组学到全球健康等多种专业的专业知识-以产科，妇科和女性生殖健康研究为核心活动。特别优势包括：生殖免疫学，传染病，医学遗传学，全球健康（例如，艾滋病毒/艾滋病，疟疾），早产，行为医学，癌症流行病学和胎盘药代动力学。我们相信，通过与产科和妇科传统界限之外的学科的杰出科学家建立伙伴关系（例如，妇科肿瘤学，围产期医学和生殖内分泌学），我们的学者有最大的机会发挥他们的科学潜力，建立独特和成功的跨学科事业，并推进事业，以改善妇女及其家庭的健康和福祉。在妇产科部门和医学院在华盛顿大学准备作出重大承诺，以支持华盛顿大学WRHR计划的延续。 公众相关性：西弗吉尼亚大学生殖健康和生殖健康方案计划促进方法的多样性、执行的独创性和培训妇女生殖健康研究人员方向的愿景，从而促进国家资源的发展，培养和培训未来几代妇产科临床科学家。所提出的新的多学科方法最有可能成功地回答最有价值的问题，最有可能对所有妇女的健康产生重大影响。
