Interdisciplinary New Faculty Recruitment in Craniofacial Development

描述（由申请人提供）：南加州大学（USC）P30项目旨在招募初级教师，他们的研究兴趣是补充我们的目标，提高我们的多学科事件塑造颅面形态发生，畸形和使用干细胞生物学再生的理解。这些新的教师将被联合招募到南加州大学牙科学院（USCSD）和凯克医学院（KSOM），允许他们访问大学范围内的基础设施研究资源。这些资源包括技术支持、核心实验室和充分接触研究生和博士后研究员的机会。我们将为他们提供的最重要的资源是一个非常有才华的，垂直分层的教师群体，他们的兴趣与自己的研究兴趣平行，并致力于指导这些新同事走向独立的生物医学研究道路。两所南加州大学学校的领导层承诺提供空间资源和教师工资，这将使我们的新同事在未来四年内将超过75%的专业时间用于奖学金工作。年终目标设定和报告机制已经到位，将为这两位新同事提供业绩指标。这些指标将进行审查，并制定一项计划，以加强他们的优势，同时削弱任何弱点，因为他们实现了终身教职和晋升的道路在大学。 南加州。最终，这个P30项目的成功是由这两个新招聘的教师的职业成功，他们与现有的杰出教师专家的整合和丰富和扩大南加州大学颅面生物学计划来衡量的。 公共卫生相关性：南加州大学（USC）牙科学院（SD）和凯克医学院（KSOM）之间的这一合作项目将为南加州大学的初级教师和学术课程的发展提供至关重要的支持，肯定会对改善所有美国人的口腔保健产生长期持久的影响。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of Southern California (USC) P30 project is directed at recruiting junior faculty members whose research interests are complementary to our goal of enhancing our understanding of the polydisciplinary events shaping craniofacial morphogenesis, their malformations and the use of stem cell biology for their regeneration. These new faculty members will be jointly recruited into the USC School of Dentistry (USCSD) and Keck School of Medicine (KSOM), permitting their access to university wide infrastructural research resources. These resources include technical support core laboratories and full access to graduate students and postdoctoral fellows. The most important resource we will supply them with is a highly talented, vertically stratified faculty cohort whose interests parallel their own research interests and who are dedicated to mentoring these new colleagues towards a path of independent biomedical research. The leadership of the two USC schools commits to space resources and faculty salaries that will permit our new colleagues to devote greater than 75% of their professional time over the next four years to their scholarship efforts. Year-end goal setting and reporting mechanisms are in place that will provide metrics of performance for these two new colleagues. These metrics will be reviewed and a plan created to enhance their strengths while attenuating any weaknesses as they achieve a path towards tenure and promotion at the University of Southern California. Ultimately, the success of this P30 project is measured by the career success of these two newly recruited faculty members, their integration with the existing distinguished faculty experts and the enrichment and expansion of the craniofacial biology program at USC. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: This collaborative project between the University of Southern California (USC) School of Dentistry (SD) and Keck School of Medicine (KSOM) will provide crucial support for the development of junior faculty members and academic programs at the USC and will certainly have a long lasting impact towards the improvement of oral health care for all Americans.
