DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): As faculty at academic institutions are living longer and remaining productive, many are facing challenges of transitioning in the later stages of their career. Professors are being forced to retire and have little guidance or mentorship as to their options. Challenges for senior faculty are unique since preparation requires consideration of both personal and academic aspects of the transition to new roles that can include but are not limited to retirement. The American Society of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology (ASPHO) is a multidisciplinary organization of members who study and treat childhood cancer and blood disorders. In 2008, a workshop for mid- and late career members was conducted at the annual meeting for the American Society of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology that functioned as a systematic needs assessment for these stages of professional development. The results of this workshop, which included a survey component, identified a set of important topics, including work-life balance, transition and succession, management and finances, and keeping up to date with the field. In this R13 application, we are requesting funds to support a workshop that will be open to all ASPHO members and addresses concerns about late career transition that were raised in the previous 2008 workshop on mid- to late-career transitions. The funds will be used to pay for travel expenses, meeting registration, and hotel costs of the invited speakers who would not otherwise attend the ASPHO meeting. We hypothesize that greater awareness of these issues and practical solutions suggested by experts will provide important mentoring and advice to the other members of ASPHO on 1) how to best prepare for late career transitions and 2) what factors to take into consideration when making these critical life and career decisions. We also hypothesize that Pediatric Hematologist/Oncologists can lead the way and pioneer novel approaches to help late career stage professionals in other fields of academic medicine.

描述（由申请人提供）：由于学术机构的教师寿命更长，保持生产力，许多人在职业生涯的后期阶段面临着过渡的挑战。教授们被迫退休，在选择方面几乎没有指导或导师。高级教师面临的挑战是独特的，因为准备需要考虑个人和学术方面的过渡到新的角色，可以包括但不限于退休。 美国儿科血液学/肿瘤学会（ASPHO）是一个多学科组织，成员研究和治疗儿童癌症和血液疾病。2008年，在美国儿科血液学/肿瘤学学会年会上为职业中期和后期成员举办了一个研讨会，作为这些专业发展阶段的系统需求评估。该讲习班包括一个调查部分，其结果确定了一系列重要议题，包括工作与生活的平衡、过渡和继任、管理和财务以及与实地保持同步。 在这个R13应用程序中，我们要求资金支持一个研讨会，该研讨会将向所有ASPHO成员开放，并解决在2008年关于职业中期到后期过渡的研讨会上提出的对后期职业过渡的担忧。这些资金将用于支付差旅费，会议注册和酒店费用的邀请发言人谁不会参加ASPHO会议。 我们假设，对这些问题的更高认识和专家建议的实际解决方案将为ASPHO的其他成员提供重要的指导和建议：1）如何为后期职业过渡做好最好的准备; 2）在做出这些关键的生活和职业决定时，应该考虑哪些因素。我们还假设，儿科血液学家/肿瘤学家可以引领和开拓新的方法，以帮助其他学术医学领域的职业生涯后期专业人员。
