The goal of the Career Development Award Program (CDAP) of the Yale SPORE in Skin Cancer is to enhance our capacity to develop a new cadre of investigative cutaneous oncologists and scientists committed to multidisciplinary studies investigating the relevance of biological discoveries in human skin cancer risk, prevention, diagnosis, prognosis or treatment, as well as to enhance and focus the careers of individuals who have already shown interest and promise in this field. Requested funding for this component of the SPORE includes $70,000 per year with $50,000 in "matching" funds from the Yale Cancer Center, to be used for the support of two faculty-level Career Development Awards per year. Funding is for one year, but may be renewed for a second year. Potential candidates for these awards include both promising junior faculty (either already holding appointments at Yale or outside candidates/new recruits for such Yale appointments), but also established Investigators, either currently at Yale or in the process of being recruited to Yale, whose previous research focus has been in other arenas, but who wish to re-orient a significant portion of their research on translational research in cutaneous oncology. All junior faculty awardees are paired with an established investigator in translational cutaneous/ oncology who also has a documented record of successful mentoring. During its initial five-year funding cycle, YSPORE CDAP funds were used to support the career development of 6 different investigators: four investigators (including one woman and one Hispanic) received support for two years each, while two others will have received support for one year each. Individuals supported to date have had diverse backgrounds and previous experience; 2 PhDs, 2 MDs, and 2 MD/PhDs, with experience ranging from an established investigator in melanoma research newly recruited to Yale, to an established basic science investigator refocusing on translational investigation in cutaneous T cell lymphoma, to junior faculty just embarking on investigative careers in biostatistics, melanoma and squamous cell carcinoma. A similarly diverse group of outstanding potential future CDAP awardees have been identified for the next funding cycle.

耶鲁大学皮肤癌研究生院的职业发展奖励计划（CDAP）的目标是提高我们的能力，培养一支新的皮肤肿瘤学家和科学家队伍，致力于多学科研究，调查生物学发现在人类皮肤癌风险、预防、诊断、预后或治疗方面的相关性。以及加强和关注那些已经在这一领域表现出兴趣和希望的个人的职业生涯。SPORE的这一组成部分所需的资金包括每年7万美元和耶鲁癌症中心提供的5万美元“配套”资金，用于支持每年两个学院级职业发展奖。资助期限为一年，但可以延长第二年。这些奖项的潜在候选人包括有前途的初级教师，（要么已经在耶鲁大学任职，要么是耶鲁大学任命的外部候选人/新招聘人员），而且还建立了研究人员，要么目前在耶鲁大学任职，要么正在被耶鲁大学招募，其以前的研究重点一直在其他领域，但是他们希望将他们的研究的很大一部分重新定位在皮肤肿瘤学的转化研究上。所有初级教师获奖者都与一位既有翻译皮肤/肿瘤学研究者配对，该研究者也有成功指导的记录。在最初的五年资助周期中，YSPORE CDAP资金用于支持6名不同研究人员的职业发展：4名研究人员（包括1名女性和1名西班牙裔）每人获得两年的支持，另外2名研究人员每人获得一年的支持。到目前为止，支持的个人有不同的背景和以前的经验; 2个博士，2个医学博士和2个医学博士/博士，经验范围从新招募到耶鲁大学的黑色素瘤研究的既定研究员，到重新关注皮肤T细胞淋巴瘤转化研究的既定基础科学研究员，到刚刚开始生物统计学，黑色素瘤和鳞状细胞癌研究职业的初级教师。一个类似的多样化的优秀潜在的未来CDAP获奖者群体已确定为下一个资助周期。
