Center for Child Injury Prevention Studies (CChIPS)

这是一个更新CChIPS中心的提议，该中心是由费城儿童医院（CHOP）主办的I/UCRC，宾夕法尼亚大学作为其合作伙伴，由大学政策委员会监督。已经开展并将在更新期间继续进行的研究项目的范围分为以下几类：-损伤生物力学，机制和耐受性。-技术解决方案-设计，开发和测试。-与安全技术相关的人类互动和行为。-安全教育和宣传。-安全装置或行为矫正项目的评估和成本效益本提案寻求由费城儿童医院领导的I/UCRC儿童伤害预防研究（CChIPS）第二阶段（第二个五年）的支持。该中心成立于2005年，目前正在完成作为I/UCRC的第一个五年，重点是预防交通事故中儿童和青少年的伤害。许多杰出的研究成果已被传播，包括研究成果、教材、计算模型和知识产权。该中心的教职员工，尤其是中心主任，都非常有资格在这个领域进行研究。未来五年的研究计划是将目前的工作扩展到最近在40多个项目中确定的领域，并扩展到与运动损伤相关的研究。新主题包括运动损伤预防、脑震荡预防和治疗以及损伤治疗的康复和手术器械。CChIPS作为促进者，开展和传播与行业相关的科学复杂研究。作为全国唯一的产学研合作的儿童伤害预防科学和工程平台，CChIPS具有独特的优势，可以解决汽车行业面临的有关儿童安全运输未来的关键问题。CChIPS的研究成果通过技术会议、知识产权、以及开发和支持适合公众的网站来传播。研究团队性别多元化、包容性强。公司在若干部门的参与清楚地表明了这项工作的广泛相关性和重大影响。

This is a proposal to renew the CChIPS center, an I/UCRC hosted by the Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (CHOP) with the University of Pennsylvania serving as its university partner, overseen by a University Policy Committee. The scope of the research projects that have been undertaken and will continue during the renewal fall into the following categories:-Injury biomechanics, mechanisms, and tolerance. -Technological solutions - design, development and testing. -Human interaction with and behavior related to safety technology. -Education and promotion of safety. -Evaluation and cost effectiveness of safety devices or behavior modification programs This proposal seeks support for phase two (the second five years) of the I/UCRC for Child Injury Prevention Studies (CChIPS), led by The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia. The center was established in 2005 and is completing the first five years as an I/UCRC with a focus on the prevention of injuries to children and youth in traffic accidents. Numerous outstanding research products have been disseminated, including findings, educational materials, computational models and intellectual property. The center faculty and particularly the Center Director are exceptionally well-qualified to perform research in this field. The planned research for the next five years represents expansion of the current work into areas recently identified in the 40 plus projects conducted up to this point, as well as extension into research related to sports injury. The new theme encompasses sports injury prevention, concussion prevention and treatment and rehabilitative and surgical devices for injury treatment.CChIPS serves as the facilitator, to conduct and disseminate industry-relevant, scientifically complex research. As the only national platform for cooperative industry-university research on child injury prevention science and engineering, CChIPS is uniquely positioned to address critical issues facing the automotive industry regarding the future of safe transport of this population. Results from CChIPS are disseminated through technical meetings, intellectual property, and through development and support of web sites suitable for the general public. The research team is gender diverse and inclusive. The participation by companies in a number of sectors clearly demonstrates the broad relevance and significant impact of the work.
