Society for Pediatric and Perinatal Epidemiologic Research

摘要 儿科和围产期流行病学研究学会的目标是促进生殖、围产期和儿科研究。这项研究包括研究影响产妇健康以及儿童从受孕到青春期的健康和发育的任何因素。为了促进这项研究，我们的任务是举行一次年会，包括执行委员会会议和成员会议。年会通常与流行病学研究学会年会在同一时间和同一地点举行。这项补助金的申请是为了继续支持学生奖和海因茨贝伦德斯国际旅游奖，以及在年会上的主旨演讲。学生奖的目的是表彰在生殖、围产期和儿科流行病学研究方面的杰出奖学金，并鼓励年轻的研究人员在这一领域建立职业生涯，让他们接触该领域的主要研究人员，随后建立一个面向未来的网络。海因茨贝伦德斯国际旅行奖旨在鼓励北美以外的调查人员，特别是来自发展中国家的调查人员，向该协会提交他们的工作，从而将这些调查人员纳入更大的世界生殖，围产期和儿科流行病学家社区。该主题演讲每年由该领域的知名高级研究员发表，总结该领域的最新技术，指出当前的研究需求，激发新的项目和方向，提供历史视角，并激励年轻的研究人员推进该领域。

Abstract The objective of the Society for Pediatric and Perinatal Epidemiologic Research shall be to foster reproductive, perinatal and pediatric research. This research includes the study of any factors that influence maternal health and the health and development of children, from their conception through their adolescence. In order to foster this research it is our mandate to hold an annual meeting of the Society to include both a meeting of the Executive Committee and a meeting of the members. The annual meeting is normally held around the same time and in the same place as the annual meeting of the Society for Epidemiologic Research. This grant is being requested to enable the continued support of the Student Prize and the Heinz Berendes International Travel award, as well as the keynote address at the Annual meeting. The purpose of the Student Prize award is to recognize outstanding scholarship in reproductive, perinatal and pediatric epidemiological research and to encourage young investigators to establish careers in this field by exposing them to the fields' leading investigators and subsequently establishing a network for the future. The Heinz Berendes International Travel award is intended to encourage investigators from outside of North America, particularly those from developing countries, to submit their work to the Society, thereby integrating these investigators into the larger world community of reproductive, perinatal and pediatric epidemiologists. The keynote address is delivered annually by a renowned senior investigator in the field to summarize the state-of-the-art in the field, to point out current research needs, to inspire new projects and directions, to provide historical perspective, as well as to stimulate young investigators to advance the field.
