Program Summary: The Training Program in Reproductive, Perinatal, and Pediatric (RPP) Life Course Epidemiology – sponsored by the Departments of Epidemiology, Social and Behavioral Sciences, and Biostatistics at the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health – aims to prepare the next generation of life course-focused, innovative, transdisciplinary investigators in the field of RPP research. The Program is further supported by the departments of Environmental Health, Nutrition, and Immunology and Infectious Diseases, reflecting the transdisciplinary nature of RPP life course epidemiology. The Program boasts accomplished faculty who have worked collaboratively to advance our understanding of the critical issues faced in the field of RPP life course epidemiologic health research. The overarching goals of the Program are to train pre- and postdoctoral fellows to become future leading scholars who are: 1) knowledgeable about the current state of science in RPP life course epidemiology; 2) skilled in advanced epidemiological and biostatistical methods to undertake RPP life course research; 3) skilled in effective communication, with a strong ability to formulate and write research proposals and scientific manuscripts for publication, as well as to interpret and disseminate data to scientific and lay communities; and 4) anchored in peer and professional networks including individual and group mentorship opportunities that support continuous professional development, leadership, teamwork, and access to resources to translate knowledge into new independent areas of RPP life course epidemiologic research. The Program aims to not only develop knowledge, skills, and capacity toward scientific excellence in RPP sciences, but also inspire a generation of young scholars to adapt to the evolving research climate, which will increasingly require a transdisciplinary, team-science approach to tackle contemporary and future public health issues. Thus, pre- and postdoctoral fellows will follow transdisciplinary training involving a combination of coursework, seminars, practicum, and independent and collaborative research in RPP life course epidemiology. A key aspect of this application is a cutting-edge mentoring plan, which involves assigning at least three mentors from different career stages, with expertise in the fellow’s broad area of research interest. Each fellow will obtain hands-on experience with study planning, data collection, and data analysis in a rich training environment leveraging well-established cohorts led by Program Faculty, with additional mentoring in competing for funds, reviewing and publishing, teaching and public speaking, and leadership and citizenship, which will provide a bridge to launching independent careers in RPP epidemiologic research. Aligned with the mission of the NICHD, this Program will strive to build capacity toward a scientific workforce that will be equipped to advance our understanding of significant reproductive, perinatal, and pediatric health issues, and use cutting-edge evidence to inform clinical practice, translate science into policy action, and implement prevention strategies to improve the health of women and children across the reproductive life course.

计划摘要：生殖、围产期和儿科(RPP)生命课程的培训计划 流行病学--由流行病学、社会和行为科学系以及 哈佛大学陈天佑公共卫生学院的生物统计学--旨在为下一代生活做准备 RPP研究领域专注于课程的、创新的、跨学科的调查人员。该计划进一步 在环境卫生、营养、免疫和传染病部门的支持下， 反映了RPP生命过程流行病学的跨学科性质。这项计划吹嘘自己取得了成功 合作促进我们对该领域面临的关键问题的理解 RPP生命历程流行病学健康研究。该计划的总体目标是培训预科和 博士后研究员将成为未来的领先学者，他们：1)了解当前的状况 RPP生命过程流行病学科学；2)熟练掌握先进的流行病学和生物统计学方法 从事RPP生命历程研究；3)善于有效沟通，具有较强的沟通和沟通能力 撰写研究建议和科学手稿以供出版，以及解释和传播数据 面向科学和非专业社区；以及4)建立在同行和专业网络中，包括个人和 团队指导机会，支持持续的职业发展、领导力、团队合作和 获得资源，将知识转化为RPP生命过程流行病学的新的独立领域 研究。该计划的目标不仅是发展知识、技能和能力，以实现科学上的卓越 RPP科学，也激励着一代年轻学者适应不断变化的研究环境，这 将越来越需要跨学科、团队科学的方法来应对当代和未来的公众 健康问题。因此，博士后和博士后研究员将接受跨学科的联合培训。 RPP生命历程中的课程作业、研讨会、实践以及独立和协作研究 流行病学。该应用程序的一个关键方面是尖端的指导计划，其中包括在 至少有三位来自不同职业阶段的导师，他们拥有该研究员广泛研究兴趣领域的专业知识。 每个研究员都将在丰富的学习计划、数据收集和数据分析方面获得实践经验 培训环境利用由计划部门领导的成熟的队列，并在 竞争资金、审查和出版、教学和公开演讲、领导力和公民身份， 这将为在RPP流行病学研究中开始独立的职业生涯提供桥梁。与 作为NICHD的使命，该计划将努力建设一支科学劳动力队伍的能力，这将是 有能力促进我们对重大生殖、围产期和儿科健康问题的了解，以及 使用尖端证据为临床实践提供信息，将科学转化为政策行动，并实施 制定预防战略，以改善妇女和儿童在整个生殖生命过程中的健康。
