Career Enhancement Core

摘要：职业发展核心 职业提升核心将侧重于招聘、培训和指导学员的职业生涯， 包括博士前研究员，博士后研究员，以及新的和早期阶段的研究人员，作为独立的 研究人员专注于烟草监管科学（TRS）和减少烟草相关的健康 差距。与ESTCORS主题一致，我们将重点关注技能获取，这是构建 科学促进有效监管和宣传烟草产品， 重点人群，特别是调味烟草产品和电子烟。核心将促进 每年为4-8名博士前研究员，4名博士后研究员， 博士研究员（每个研究项目一名）和2名新的早期研究人员。经验将 包括参与研究项目、撰写赠款、每月培训、会议、研讨会， 两会核心还将每年资助3-5个试点研究项目，并促进经验和 我们的TCORS项目和其他TCORS的研究人员之间的网络机会。在整个 核心，我们将纳入和评估以证据为基础的战略，以招募和指导学员， 在烟草控制方面代表性不足的背景;实施培养包容性研究的最佳做法 环境;并主持卫生公平研究中新出现的问题的全中心讨论。核心共同负责人 Drs.

ABSTRACT: CAREER ENHANCEMENT CORE The Career Enhancement Core will focus on recruiting, training, and mentoring the careers of trainees, including pre-doctoral fellows, post-doctoral fellows, and new and early-stage investigators, as independent investigators focused on tobacco regulatory science (TRS) and the reduction of tobacco-related health disparities. Consistent with the UNC TCORS theme, we will focus on skill acquisition key to building the science for effective regulation of, and communication about, tobacco products disproportionately used by priority populations, especially flavored tobacco products and e-cigarettes. The Core will facilitate comprehensive mentored research and training experiences annually for 4-8 pre-doctoral fellows, 4 post- doctoral fellows (one for each research project), and 2 new and early-stage investigators. Experiences will include participating in research projects, grant writing, monthly trainings, meetings, seminars and conferences. The Core will also fund 3-5 pilot research projects annually and facilitate experiential and networking opportunities between our TCORS projects and investigators at other TCORS. Throughout the Core, we will incorporate and evaluate evidence-based strategies to recruit and mentor trainees with backgrounds under-represented in tobacco control; implement best practices for cultivating inclusive research environments; and host Center-wide discussions of emerging issues in health equity research. Core co-leads Drs. Goldstein and Golden have a combined 55 years of successfully mentoring students and early career researchers. In the past ten years, Core leads and UNC TCORS faculty provided mentorship and trained 36 pre-doctoral students, 14 post-doctoral students and 12 new and early stage investigators who collectively first- authored over 150 publications in high impact journals, and successfully transitioned to independent faculty or assumed federal and other research positions.
