The overall goal of the ‘Childhood Infections Research Program’ T32 (CHIRP) is to prepare MD Fellows and PhD postdoctoral scientists for careers as investigators in basic and clinical / translational research related to infections in children. The objectives of CHIRP are: 1) to identify the outstanding MD and PhD candidates committed to a research career related to infections of children; 2) to support mentored research training with experienced senior mentors and productive emerging mentors; 3) to implement a “career design by objective” program that establishes individualized timelines and pathways for training and long-term career development; 4) to utilize courses and degree programs relevant to the individualized training plan; and 5) to incorporate novel interdisciplinary training programs among MD and PhD trainees to create broad understanding of important questions and issues in childhood infections. CHIRP has identified 23 senior mentors in Pediatric Infectious Diseases, Pediatrics, Medicine, and Pathology, Microbiology & Immunology with sustained NIH funding coupled with a successful track record of mentoring early career scholars. Also, we have selected 8 ‘emerging mentors’, with funding and established trainees and productivity. Mentor research and training programs are in virology, bacteriology, vaccines, hospital infections, epidemiology, outcomes, and global health. MD trainees will be identified from Pediatric Infectious Diseases, other pediatric subspecialties and resident and recruitment. PhD applicants will be identified by application of externally and internally recruited PhD candidates of CHIRP mentors and broadly across Vanderbilt. A Program Director, Associate Directors, and Steering Committee of senior mentors and experts in diversity will direct the selection and ongoing evaluation of trainees and program progress. An Advisory Committee of three national leaders in Pediatric Infectious Diseases and diversity initiatives will review and provide recommendations for changes and improvements, including approaches to increase underrepresented minorities and women scholars. Evaluation of trainees will be based on required scholarship oversight committees, individual development plans, trainee progress reports, and compliance with requirements for training in responsible conduct of research and reproducibility. Ongoing program evaluation has led to improvements including the advisory committee and a new monthly “T32-Club” for trainees with discussions of RCR, reproducibility, diversity, research-in-progress, and trainee-selected topics relevant to success and challenges of research careers. Long-term program success will be based on outcomes of trainees in publications, career progress, and follow-on funding and will be assessed trainee evaluations and review by steering committee and advisory committee. CHIRP has been highly successful in recruiting, mentoring and establishing investigators in childhood infections, and we request support to continue the program success. 1

“儿童感染研究计划”T32 (CHIRP) 的总体目标是培养医学博士研究员和 从事基础和临床/转化研究相关研究的博士后科学家 儿童感染。 CHIRP 的目标是： 1) 甄别优秀的医学博士和博士候选人 致力于与儿童感染相关的研究事业； 2）支持指导性研究培训 经验丰富的资深导师和富有成效的新兴导师； 3）实施“按目标进行职业设计” 为培训和长期职业发展制定个性化时间表和途径的计划； 4）利用与个性化培养计划相关的课程和学位项目； 5）融入新颖的 医学博士和博士生之间的跨学科培训计划，以建立对重要问题的广泛理解 儿童感染问题。 CHIRP 已确定 23 名儿科传染病高级导师 疾病、儿科、医学、病理学、微生物学和免疫学以及 NIH 持续资助 拥有指导早期职业学者的成功记录。此外，我们还评选出了8位“新锐导师”， 拥有资金、已建立的受训人员和生产力。导师研究和培训项目涉及病毒学、 细菌学、疫苗、医院感染、流行病学、结果和全球健康。 MD 实习生将 从儿科传染病、其他儿科亚专科以及住院医师和招募中确定。博士 申请人将通过CHIRP导师的外部和内部招聘的博士候选人的申请来确定 以及范德比尔特大学的广泛范围。项目总监、副总监和高级指导委员会 多元化领域的导师和专家将指导学员和项目的选择和持续评估 进步。由三位儿童传染病和多样性国家领导人组成的咨询委员会 倡议将审查并提供变革和改进的建议，包括采取的方法 增加代表性不足的少数族裔和女性学者。对学员的评价将根据要求 奖学金监督委员会、个人发展计划、学员进度报告以及遵守情况 负责任的研究行为和可重复性培训的要求。正在进行的计划评估 带来了一些改进，包括咨询委员会和针对受训人员的新月度“T32 俱乐部” 讨论 RCR、可重复性、多样性、正在进行的研究以及学员选择的相关主题 研究生涯的成功和挑战。长期计划的成功将取决于学员的成果 在出版物、职业发展和后续资助方面，将接受培训生评价和审查 指导委员会和咨询委员会。 CHIRP 在招募、指导和培训方面取得了巨大成功 建立儿童感染调查员，我们请求支持以继续该计划的成功。 1
