Career Enhancement Core

项目摘要。FDA的烟草监管机构呼吁采取以证据为基础的方法， 保护公众健康。这种方法不同于药品监管，因此需要不同的 训练有素的监管科学家。职业提升核心（CEC）继续并扩大了中心， 烟草制品研究（CSTP）的烟草监管科学和研究培训计划，旨在 符合FDA和NIH的要求。CEC提供最新的烟草监管科学研究生课程， 教育博士前和博士后任命，聘请新的烟草监管调查人员，并在没有 增加了NIH的成本，将烟草监管科学纳入两个现有的国际项目， 科学家和政策制定者。CSTP的CEC的具体目标是：（1）进行跨学科的 研究生课程和生产方法为基础的网络研讨会，（2）教育博士前和博士后 任命，（3）从事烟草监管科学的非CSTP教师，（4）创建一个试点研究计划， （5）将烟草管制科学纳入正在进行的国际培训项目。 总之，CSTP提出了一个职业提升核心，将继续教授烟草监管科学 和烟草产品评价的跨学科方法，支持博士前和博士后 任命，并聘请新的调查人员在烟草监管科学。试点研究计划将有助于 被任命者学习提案写作和管理技能，同时促进CSTP教师之间的合作 和烟草监管科学的新研究人员。总之，所有这些活动都支持U 54- 资助CSTP，并将建立在CSTP的历史，产生一个经验丰富的干部烟草监管 科学家准备在学术界，政府和其他领域的生产性职业生涯。

Project Summary. FDA’s tobacco regulatory authority calls for an evidence-based approach that emphasizes protecting public health. This approach differs from pharmaceutical regulation and thus requires differently trained regulatory scientists. The Career Enhancement Core (CEC) continues and expands the Center for the Study of Tobacco Products’ (CSTP’s) program of tobacco regulatory science and research training designed to meet FDA and NIH needs. The CEC offers an updated graduate course on tobacco regulatory science, educates pre- and post-doctoral appointees, engages investigators new to tobacco regulation, and, at no added cost to NIH, integrates tobacco regulatory science into two existing international programs that train scientists and policymakers. The specific aims of the CSTP’s CEC are to: (1) conduct a transdisciplinary graduate course and produce methods-based webinars, (2) educate pre-doctoral and post-doctoral appointees, (3) engage non-CSTP faculty in tobacco regulatory science, (4) create a pilot research program, and (5) integrate tobacco regulatory science into ongoing international training programs. In sum, the CSTP proposes a Career Enhancement Core that will continue to teach tobacco regulatory science and transdisciplinary methods for tobacco product evaluation, support pre-doctoral and post-doctoral appointees, and engage new investigators in tobacco regulatory science. The pilot research program will help appointees learn proposal writing and management skills while fostering collaborations between CSTP faculty and investigators new to tobacco regulatory science. Taken together, all of these activities support the U54- funded CSTP and will build on the CSTP’s history of producing an experienced cadre of tobacco regulatory scientists ready for productive careers in academia, government, and other areas.
