Career Development Program

职业发展方案(CDP)的总体目标是支持培训和 新的和正在转型的环境健康调查人员和内科科学家的专业发展。 因为EHS研究中最重要、最具科学意义和最具挑战性的问题是 CDP嵌入多个学科的界面，将在帮助促进 产生新的科学知识、技术能力，形成跨学科和跨学科 集团发展未来的EHS研究队伍。该方法将重点放在职业生涯的连续性上 从博士后到初级教员和临床医生再到知名科学家的发展 环境健康研究问题。为实现这一目标，我们将开展以下工作 具体目标： 目标1.吸引和聘用不同的初级调查人员小组，以加强对EHS研究的追求 通过制定正式的指导计划，提供有针对性的试点项目机会和机会 通过CTEHR设施核心实现先进技术。 目标2.目标和指导选定的博士后实习生，提供有重点的指导和培养 制定成功的NIH K奖项。 目标3.发展中心间资源联盟和指导伙伴计划，以加强 中心协作，拓展EHS研究。 目标4.与COEC和IHSFC合作，开展“inReach”活动，以提供信息， 关于让社区参与以社区为基础的参与性和 流行病学研究。 由于与CTEHR专题的联系，CDP处于实现这些目标的独特地位 重点领域，并与高级成像、定量生物学、靶向基因组学和 综合健康科学设施核心和COEC。

The overall goal of the Career Development Program (CDP) of the CTEHR is to support training and professional development of new and transitioning environmental health investigators and physician scientists. Because the most important, scientifically interesting and challenging questions in EHS research are embedded at the interface of multiple disciplines, the CDP will play a key role in helping to facilitate the generation of new scientific knowledge, technical capabilities, and formation of inter- and trans-disciplinary groups to develop the future EHS research workforce. The approach will focus on the continuum of career development from post-doctoral fellow to junior faculty and clinician scientists to established scientists pursuing environmental health research questions. In order to accomplish this goal, we will carry out the following Specific Aims: Aim 1. Attract and engage a diverse group of junior investigators to enhance pursuit of EHS research through development of a formal mentoring program, targeted pilot project opportunities and access to advanced technology through CTEHR Facility Cores. Aim 2. Target and mentor selected post-doctoral trainees to provide focused mentoring and foster development of successful NIH K awards. Aim 3. Develop an Inter-Center Resource Alliance and Mentored Partnership Program to enhance inter- center collaboration and expand EHS research. Aim 4. Develop, in collaboration with the COEC and IHSFC, "Inreach" activities to provide information, strategies and expertise on engaging communities in community-based participatory and epidemiologic research. The CDP is in a unique position to accomplish these aims, due to connections with the CTEHR Thematic Focus Areas, and shared leadership with the Advanced Imaging, Quantitative Biology, Targeted Genomics and Integrated Health Sciences Facility Cores and the COEC.
