Training in Basic and Translational Child Health Research

 描述(由申请人提供)：我们的NICHD CHRCD“基础科学儿童健康研究培训计划”将在科罗拉多大学丹佛安舒茨医学院儿科系进行。我们的总体目标是，经过培训，我们的学者将获得作为独立研究人员从事富有成效的学术研究事业的专业技能，并将具有在儿童健康研究领域产生重大影响的领导能力，特别是 帮助做出基本发现，然后将其转化为转化性研究，并最终改进临床实践，使儿童的健康受益。为了实现这些目标和目标：1.我们将通过指导(指导委员会)和指导(咨询委员会)建立领导力和培训计划结构：严格的标准和程序：招聘学者、研究导师和个人学者咨询委员会；研究和职业发展培训的必要属性和具体活动；对计划的所有方面进行评估。2.我们将从最杰出的儿科住院医师、专科住院医师(研究员)和具有良好学术记录的初级教员中寻找、招募和招募具有高度积极性并致力于在学术儿科建立独立的基础科学研究导向职业生涯的潜在学者。3.我们将把学者与我们全国知名的杰出研究人员建立基础科学研究导师关系，他们是各自领域的专家，在年轻研究人员的研究培训和职业发展方面拥有卓越的记录。4.我们将让学者们参与一系列广泛的研究和职业发展机会，包括基础科学研究和翻译科学研究所需的现代技术范围。5.我们将制定优秀的、有指导的、灵活的、以学者为导向的、严格的和具有挑战性的职业发展和教育计划，在预期成就和创造性独立思维、出色的科学交流技能和负责任的专业行为方面发展高标准；持续的指导将有助于确保向研究独立的成功过渡。6.我们将制定一项评估计划，通过频繁、严格地审查学者和教师的成就，确保该计划的成功，并需要改进和/或满足儿童健康研究领域的新的研究和培训要求和新的挑战。

 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our NICHD CHRCD, "Training Program in Basic Science Child Health Research," will be conducted at the University of Colorado Denver Anschutz Medical Campus, School of Medicine, Department of Pediatrics. Our OVERALL GOAL is that after their training, our Scholars will have acquired the professional skills for productive academic research careers as independent investigators and will have the leadership capacity to make significant impacts in the field of Child Health Research, particularly in helping to make basic discoveries that then can be translated into translational research and ultimately improved clinical practice that benefits the health of children. To achieve these objectives and goal: 1. We will create leadership and training program structure that will establish through direction (steering committee) and guidance (advisory committee): rigorous criteria and processes for: recruitment of scholars, research mentors, and individual scholar advisory committees; required attributes and specific activities of research and career development training; evaluation of all aspects of the program 2. We will identify, recruit, and enlist potential Scholars from the most exceptional pediatric residents, subspecialty residents ("fellows"), and junior faculty with strong academic records who are highly motivated and committed to establishing an independent basic science research-oriented career in academic pediatrics. 3. We will place Scholars into basic science research mentored relationships with our nationally-renowned, outstanding research faculty, who are recognized as experts in their fields with proven records of excellence in research training and career development of young investigators. 4. We will involve the Scholars in a broad array of research and career development opportunities that encompass the spectrum of modern techniques needed for basic and translational science research. 5. We will develop excellently mentored, flexible, scholar-oriented, rigorous, and challenging Career Development and Education Programs with high standards for expected accomplishments and development of creative independent thinking, excellent science communication skills, and responsible professional conduct; on-going mentorship will help to ensure successful transition to research independence. 6. We will develop an Evaluation Program that will ensure, through frequent, rigorous review of scholar and faculty accomplishments, the success of the program and needs to improve and/or meet new research and training requirements and new challenges in the field of child health research.
