DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Carolina Population Center (CPC) at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH) requests a five-year continuation of NICHD support for its training program in demography and the social and health sciences. The CPC training program combines a firm base in a social science or health discipline with formal training in core demography and research-based training in population. Hallmarks of the program are its multidisciplinarity, the integration of the social and health sciences, and the interdisciplinary and team orientation of much of the training and research. Continued support is requested for 10 predoctoral and 4 postdoctoral traineeships per year. Sixty-five faculty fellows of the Carolina Population Center, holding primary appointments in 16 UNC-CH departments, provide an unusually rich environment for interdisciplinary research as training faculty and potential preceptors. In addition, Center research support services for trainees and faculty are truly outstanding. CPC's predoctoral training program combines disciplinary degrees with training in population research. Predoctoral trainees meet the course, dissertation, and other requirements of their home departments. They also meet Center requirements, including: a research practicum supervised by a CPC faculty fellow; completion of at least four approved graduate-level population and population-focused methods courses; training in the responsible conduct of research; participation in interdisciplinary population seminars and workshops; and attendance at the annual meeting of the Population Association of America (PAA). The 42 predoctoral trainees during AY 2012-13 are registered in the PhD programs of 10 departments across campus. The postdoctoral training program is designed around the mutual population research interests of trainees and faculty fellows. The 12 postdoctoral scholars during AY 2012-13 hold doctorates in eight disciplines. Postdoctoral scholars are admitted directly to the Center and collaborate with individual faculty preceptors, generally for a period of two years. CPC support to predoctoral and postdoctoral trainees includes statistical consultation from professors in three disciplines, outstanding information services with an in-house library, graphics and publication assistance (e.g., poster preparation, editing), a state-of-the art spatial analysis uni, a large and experienced computer staff (e.g., research programming; web support; systems; data entry) and assistance with biomedical specimens (if needed). All trainees have office space at the Center and with it many opportunities for interdisciplinary exchange with faculty and other trainees.

描述（由申请人提供）：位于查佩尔山的北卡罗来纳州大学（UNC-CH）的卡罗莱纳人口中心（CPC）请求NICHD为其人口学和社会与健康科学培训计划提供五年的持续支持。CPC培训计划将社会科学或卫生学科的坚实基础与核心人口学和人口研究培训的正式培训相结合。该计划的特点是其多学科性，社会和健康科学的整合，以及许多培训和研究的跨学科和团队导向。要求继续支持每年10名博士前和4名博士后培训。卡罗莱纳人口中心的65名研究员在16个UNC-CH部门担任主要职务，为跨学科研究提供了一个异常丰富的环境，作为培训教师和潜在的导师。此外，中心为学员和教师提供的研究支持服务也非常出色。CPC的博士前培训计划将学科学位与人口研究培训相结合。博士预科生符合课程，论文，和他们的家庭部门的其他要求。他们还满足中心的要求，包括：由CPC教员研究员监督的研究实习;完成至少四个批准的研究生水平的人口和人口为重点的方法课程;在负责任的研究行为的培训;参加跨学科的人口研讨会和讲习班;并出席美国人口协会（PAA）的年会。AY 2012-13期间的42名博士前学员在校园内10个部门的博士课程中注册。博士后培训计划是围绕学员和教师研究员的共同人口研究兴趣而设计的。2012-13学年的12名博士后学者拥有8个学科的博士学位。博士后学者直接进入中心，并与个别教师导师合作，一般为期两年。CPC对博士前和博士后学员的支持包括三个学科教授的统计咨询，内部图书馆的出色信息服务，图形和出版援助（例如，海报准备、编辑）、最先进的空间分析单位、大量经验丰富的计算机人员（例如，研究规划;网络支持;系统;数据输入）和生物医学标本援助（如果需要）。所有学员都在中心有办公空间，并有许多机会与教师和其他学员进行跨学科交流。
