IUCRC Planning Grant for UW to Affiliate with CHOP/CCHiPS

将举行一次规划会议，以确定华盛顿大学是否将成为现有产业/大学儿童伤害研究和预防合作研究中心(CChIPS)的研究地点。该中心致力于儿童伤害预防的方方面面。华盛顿大学的加入将加强其在以下领域的现有研究能力：1)儿童伤害生物力学、机制和耐受性；2)产品设计；3)人类与安全技术的互动和行为；4)安全教育和促进；以及5)重点预防伤害的行为研究/修改计划。所有人都将从多大学中心可能实现的更大互动中受益匪浅。

A planning meeting will be held to determine if the University of Washington is to become a research site to the existing Industry/University Cooperative Research Center for Child Injury Research and Prevention (CChIPS). The Center is dedicated to all aspects of childhood injury prevention. The addition of the University of Washington will build on its current research capabilities in the areas of; 1) childhood injury biomechanics, mechanisms and tolerance; 2) product design; 3) human interaction with and behavior related to safety technology; 4) safety education and promotion; and 5) focused injury prevention behavioral research/modification programs.The addition of the University of Washington will have a broad impact on the participating students and faculty through involvement with the industrial members. All will significantly benefit from the greater interaction possible in a multi-university center.
