RESEARCH CAREER DEVELOPMENT CORE

研究职业发展核心（RCDC）的目标是培养初级教师成为 未来的学术领导者在转化基础，临床和卫生服务研究方向， 提高老年人的独立性。相关的目标包括吸引来自不同领域的新教师 学科进入老龄化研究，并作为加州大学洛杉矶分校老龄化教育和研究的资源 社区 该中心的特点包括： (1)职业发展奖（CDA）计划由5名初级教师和他们的 指导委员会在结构化的跨学科计划，提供综合培训， 转化机制和成果研究，促进教师职业发展; (2)一个有组织的教学计划，以加强所有初级教师和研究员的研究培训， 后者代表我们未来的初级教员; (3)研究发展导师小组，由具有广泛专业知识的高级教师组成， 为初级教师获奖者提供翻译研究方面的个性化跨学科培训， 职业发展;以及 (4)一个跨学科的区域发展合作委员会，监测区域发展合作获奖者的进展情况，并确保 该中心有助于加强加州大学洛杉矶分校与老龄问题有关的研究和培训。 在过去的14年里，加州大学洛杉矶分校OAIC研究发展核心（RDC）已提供CDA到21 加州大学洛杉矶分校的初级教师来自各个学科，并支持了44个试点研究项目 这些项目与OAIC的目标相关，其中绝大多数已发展成为资助的主要研究赠款。 根据这一经验，在拟议的新的五年支助期间，区域合作与发展中心将至少提供 另外11名初级教师在相关领域有3年密集的CDA培训经验， 基础、临床和成果/卫生服务研究。三个已建立的CDA计划将继续进行 从目前的奖学金期到新周期的前1-2年，完成3年的培训， 获奖者，和两个额外的3年CDA培训计划将启动。所有程序将联合收割机 在翻译和成果研究机制与个性化的研究生涯的培训 发展方案。RCDC的主要人员是核心主任西奥多J.哈恩，医学博士，的 副主任，Alison摩尔，医学博士以及助理局长凯瑟琳·萨尔基相医学博士M.S.P.

The goal of the Research Career Development Core (RCDC) is to train junior faculty members to become future academic leaders in translational basic, clinical and health services research directed toward improving the independence of older persons. Related goals involve attracting new faculty from various disciplines into aging research and serving as a resource in aging education and research to the UCLA community. Features of the RCDC include: (1) a Career Development Award (CDA) program comprised of 5 junior faculty members and their mentorship committees in a structured interdisciplinary program that provides integrated training in translational mechanistic and outcomes research, and promotes faculty career development; (2) an organized program of instruction to enhance the research training of all junior faculty and fellows, the latter representing our future junior faculty; (3) a Research Development Mentorship Panel, comprised of senior faculty with a wide range of expertise, to provide junior faculty awardees with individualized interdisciplinary training in translational research and career development; and (4) an interdisciplinary RCDC Committee to monitor the progress of RCDC awardees and assure that the RCDC contributes to the enhancement of aging-related research and training at UCLA. Over the past 14 years, the UCLA OAIC Research Development Core (RDC) has provided CDAs to 21 UCLA junior faculty members from a variety of disciplines and has supported 44 pilot research projects relevant to OAIC goals, the vast majority of which have developed into funded major research grants. Building on this experience, during the proposed new 5-year period of support the RCDC will provide at least 11 additional junior faculty members with an intensive 3-year CDA training experience in relevant areas of basic, clinical and outcomes/health services research. Three established CDA programs will be continued from the present award period through the first 1-2 years of the new cycle to complete 3 years of training for the awardees, and two additional 3-year CDA training programs will be initiated. All programs will combine training in translational and mechanisms of outcomes research with individualized research career development programs. The key personnel in the RCDC are the Core Director, Theodore J. Hahn, M.D., the Associate Director, Alison Moore, M.D. and the Assistant Director, Catherine Sarkisian, M.D., M.S.P.H.
