PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT–Cancer Research Career Enhancement and Related Activities A strategic goal for the SJCCC is to develop a well-trained, diverse biomedical workforce through research education, training, and career-development activities that promote understanding of the biology and treatment of childhood cancer. Research shows that early intervention strategies, beginning in elementary and middle school, are essential to enhancing the biomedical careers pipeline, especially for students from underrepresented backgrounds. The SJCCC provides the financial support, leadership and institutional infrastructure to support this comprehensive biomedical training pipeline, initiating efforts in elementary school and continuing through the faculty level. Career enhancement activities are led by the Associate Director for Education and Training, Dr. Gerard Zambetti, who also serves as an institutional Vice President and Director of the Academic Programs Office in Biomedical Sciences, allowing a seamless integration of SJCCC and institutional efforts. Dr. Zambetti coordinates the efforts of a qualified group of staff supporting elementary education and outreach, pre- and postdoctoral education and training, and faculty career development activities. He also works closely with the Center Director, Senior Leadership and Program Leaders to develop, evaluate and oversee an extensive portfolio of career enhancement activities across this spectrum. For example, the SJCCC Cancer Education and Outreach Program has worked with thousands of K-5 students and teachers, particularly in underrepresented communities, to inspire pursuit of research careers, and our NCI-funded Pediatric Oncology Education Program has trained more than 1200 students, 23% of whom are underrepresented minorities and 87% of whom have gone on to receive doctoral degrees. Dr. Zambetti and SJCCC members were also instrumental in the development and launch of the St. Jude Graduate School in Biomedical Sciences, a new PhD program focused on translational research that matriculated its first class of 12 students in 2017. The SJCCC also launched the annual Science Scholars of Tomorrow Symposium to provide high school students and teachers insight into cutting-edge pediatric cancer research and the Clinical Shadowing Program for postdoctoral fellows to develop experience in how laboratory research relates to the treatment and care of pediatric cancer patients. In addition, the Center initiated new grant-writing workshops for postdoctoral fellows and faculty to support development of their research careers. Future plans for the next project period include the continued growth and accreditation of the St. Jude Graduate School, the addition of a new Masters program in Global Health, establishment of a certificate-based program for physicians and healthcare providers (St. Jude Global Academy), expansion of our K-12 educational efforts, and a focused initiative to expand NIH/NCI-funded training and educational programs (e.g., R25, T32, K awards) for students and fellows.

项目摘要/摘要 - 癌症研究职业增强和相关活动 SJCCC的战略目标是通过研究发展训练有素的潜水生物医学劳动力 教育，培训和职业发展活动，促进对生物学和治疗的理解 儿童癌症。研究表明，早期干预策略始于基础和中间 学校对于增强生物医学职业管道至关重要，特别是对于来自 代表性不足的背景。 SJCCC提供财务支持，领导和机构 基础设施以支持这种全面的生物医学培训管道，在小学开始努力 并继续在教师层面上。职业增强活动由副主任领导 教育和培训，杰拉德·桑贝蒂（Gerard Zambetti）博士，他还担任机构副总裁兼董事 在生物医学科学的学术计划办公室，允许SJCCC和 机构努力。 Zambetti博士协调了一组合格的支持小学的员工的努力 教育和外展，博士后和博士后教育和培训以及教师职业发展活动。 他还与中心主任，高级领导和计划领导者密切合作，以发展，评估 并监督该范围内职业增强活动的广泛投资组合。例如， SJCCC癌症教育和外展计划已与成千上万的K-5学生和老师合作， 特别是在代表性不足的社区中，激发了从事研究职业的启发，以及我们的NCI资助 小儿肿瘤学教育计划已经培训了1200多名学生，其中23％是 代表性不足的少数族裔和87％的人继续获得博士学位。 Zambetti博士和 SJCCC成员还在开发和启动圣裘德研究生院 生物医学科学是一项新的博士学位课程，专注于翻译研究，使其成熟的第一类 2017年12名学生。SJCCC还启动了明天研讨会的年度科学学者 高中生和老师深入了解尖端的小儿癌症研究和临床阴影 博士后研究员的计划，以发展实验室研究与治疗的关系的经验 小儿癌患者的护理。此外，该中心还为博士后开始了新的赠款写作研讨会 研究员和教师支持他们的研究职业的发展。下一个项目时期的未来计划 包括圣裘德研究生院的持续增长和认证，增加了新的大师 全球卫生计划，建立基于证书的医师和医疗保健提供者计划 （圣裘德全球学院），我们的K-12教育工作的扩展，以及一项针对扩展的计划 NIH/NCI资助的培训和教育计划（例如，R25，T32，K奖）为学生和研究员提供。
