DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Overview: A major goal of Children's Hospital Boston and Harvard Medical School is to foster the development of physician-scientists who are able to develop outstanding independent research programs at Children's Hospital Boston and other Pediatric Institutions around the world. This is reflected in our present research faculty, many of whom received their training here. Our dedication to training investigators in child health research is also reflected in the many outstanding investigators who received their training at Children's Hospital Boston and now populate departments of pediatrics at other medical centers around the country and in other countries. In this application we will discuss our proposed program for the re-establishment of a Child Health Research Center at Children's Hospital Boston. We propose a program that includes mentors in a broad range of disciplines, which cover the range of problems confronting pediatricians today. Our pool of Scholar-candidates is equally broad, and will include those completing fellowships in the thirteen divisions that comprise the Department of Medicine at Children's Hospital Boston, as well as outside candidates who may be recruited at the junior faculty level. Scholars will be selected from among the most promising of our Fellows, who have shown the potential during their residency and fellowship to develop as outstanding physician-scientists. During this time scholars will be appointed as Instructors, which is the usual entry-level faculty rank at Harvard Medical School, and function as junior faculty members who are establishing their own independent research programs, while continuing to benefit from mentoring by senior faculty. Importantly, program will be in place aimed specifically at developing women and under-represented minorities into successful physician-scientists.

简介：波士顿儿童医院和哈佛医学院的主要目标是培养能够在波士顿儿童医院和世界各地的其他儿科机构开展杰出的独立研究项目的内科科学家。这反映在我们目前的研究人员中，他们中的许多人都是在这里接受培训的。我们致力于培训儿童健康研究方面的研究人员，这也反映在许多优秀的研究人员身上，他们在波士顿儿童医院接受培训，目前在全国其他医学中心和其他国家的儿科工作。在这份申请中，我们将讨论我们提出的在波士顿儿童医院重建儿童健康研究中心的计划。我们提出了一项计划，其中包括广泛学科的导师，涵盖当今儿科医生面临的一系列问题。我们的奖学金候选人库同样广泛，将包括在波士顿儿童医院医学部组成的13个部门完成奖学金的人，以及可能从初级教员水平招聘的外部候选人。学者将从我们最有前途的研究员中挑选出来，他们在住院期间和奖学金期间表现出了发展为杰出内科科学家的潜力。在此期间，学者将被任命为讲师，这是哈佛医学院通常的初级教员职级，他们作为初级教员建立自己的独立研究项目，同时继续受益于资深教员的指导。重要的是，将制定专门旨在将女性和代表性不足的少数民族培养成成功的内科科学家的计划。
