BASIC MECHANISMS OF GROWTH AND DEVELOPMENT

描述(改编自申请者的描述)：主要目标是 儿童健康研究职业发展奖的申请是 培养和发展儿科科学家。为了实现这一目标， 初级儿科教员，主要从研究员和 住院医生，将在既定导师的指导下进行研究。 初级调查员及其导师的活动将得到支持 由a)确定、选择和监测工作进展情况的行政部门 青年科学家和促进招募妇女和少数群体。b) 分子和细胞生物学核心实验室，提供空间和设备， 以及选择和应用当代技术的培训 个别研究项目所解决问题的方法论。C)基本 整合实验设计原理的科学教育方案 随着分子生物学、细胞科学和胚胎学的现代应用， 在其他方面，致力于解决相关的儿科问题。D)临床 提供正式指导的调查教育计划 独特的概念、方法和分析技能，这与 临床研究的学科要求。拥有这些互补的轨道 将创造机会，弥合板凳和床边之间的差距。

DESCRIPTION (Adapted from the applicant's description): The primary goal this application for a Child Health Research Career Development Award is the training and development of pediatric scientists. To accomplish this goal, the junior pediatric faculty , recruited mostly from the pool of fellows and residents, will perform research under the guidance of established mentors. The activities of the junior investigators and their mentors will be supported by a) Administration that identifies, selects and monitors the progress of the young scientists and promotes the recruitment of women and minorities. b) Molecular and Cell Biologv Core Laboratories that provide space and equipment, as well as training in the selection and application of contemporary methodology to problems addressed by individual research projects. c) Basic Science Education Program that integrate principles of experimental design with the modem application of molecular biology, cell science and embryology, among others, to the solution of relevant pediatric problems. d) Clinical Investigation Education Program that provides formal instruction in the distinct conceptual, methodological and analytical skills that this separate discipline of clinical research requires. Having these complementary tracks will generate opportunities to bridge the gap between bench and bedside.
