Child Health Research Career Development Award

描述（由申请人提供）：我们的NICHD CHRCDA，“基础和转化儿童健康研究培训计划”将在科罗拉多大学丹佛分校安舒茨医学院儿科学系进行。我们对我们的学者的总体目标是，他们将获得专业技能，作为独立的研究者和领导者，在儿童健康研究中产生重大影响。我们将通过两个目标来实现这一目标：1)我们将提供最高质量的，个人设计的培训和职业发展机会，专注于基础科学研究；2)我们将提供培训经验，对学者进行多学科、综合、团队科学的教育，将基础发现转化为机会，帮助解决、预防和预防儿童健康方面的重大问题。我们的总体目标是，在他们的培训后，我们的学者将获得专业技能，作为独立研究者进行富有成效的学术研究，并具有领导能力，在儿童健康研究领域产生重大影响，特别是在帮助做出基本发现，然后可以转化为改善临床实践，造福儿童健康方面。为了实现这些目标和目标：我们将建立领导和培训项目结构，通过指导委员会和咨询委员会建立严格的标准和程序：招募学者、研究导师和个别学者咨询委员会；研究和职业发展培训所需的特性和具体活动；对项目各方面的评估我们将从最杰出的儿科住院医师、亚专科住院医师（“研究员”）和具有良好学术记录的初级教师中识别、招募和招募潜在的学者，这些人具有高度的积极性，并致力于在学术儿科领域建立独立的基础科学研究型职业。3. 我们将安排学者参与基础科学和转化科学研究，并与全国知名的杰出研究团队建立指导关系，这些团队在各自领域被公认为专家，在研究培训和年轻研究人员的职业发展方面有着卓越的记录。4. 我们将为这些学者提供广泛的研究和职业发展机会，包括基础科学和转化科学研究所需的各种现代技术。5. 我们将开发优秀的指导，灵活，以学者为导向，严谨，具有挑战性的职业发展和教育计划，以高标准的预期成就和发展创造性的独立思维，优秀的科学沟通技巧和负责任的职业行为；持续的指导将有助于确保成功过渡到研究独立。6. 我们将制定一项评估计划，通过频繁、严格地审查学者和教师的成就，确保该计划的成功，以及在儿童健康研究领域改进和/或满足新的研究和培训要求和新挑战的需要。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Our NICHD CHRCDA, "Training Program in Basic and Translational Child Health Research," will be conducted at the University of Colorado Denver Anschutz Medical Campus, School of Medicine, Department of Pediatrics. Our overall Goal for our Scholars is that they will acquire professional skills for productive academic research careers as independent investigators and leaders who will make significant impacts in Child Health Research. We will meet this goal with two aims: 1) we will provide the highest quality, personally designed training and career development opportunities focused in basic science research; 2) we will provide training experiences that will educate the Scholars in multidisciplinary, integrated, team science required for translation of basic discoveries into opportunities to help solve, preempt, and prevent major problems in child health. Our OVERALL GOAL is that after their training, our Scholars will have acquired the professional skills for productive academic research careers as independent investigators and will have the leadership capacity to make significant impacts in the field of Child Health Research, particularly in helping to make basic discoveries that then can be translated into improved clinical practice that benefits the health of children. To achieve these objectives and goal: 1. We will create leadership and training program structure that will establish through direction (steering committee) and guidance (advisory committee): rigorous criteria and processes for: recruitment of scholars, research mentors, and individual scholar advisory committees; required attributes and specific activities of research and career development training; evaluation of all aspects of the program 2. We will identify, recruit, and enlist potential Scholars from the most exceptional pediatric residents, subspecialty residents ("fellows"), and junior faculty with strong academic records who are highly motivated and committed to establishing an independent basic science research-oriented career in academic pediatrics. 3. We will place Scholars into basic and translational science research mentored relationships with our nationally-renowned, outstanding research faculty, who are recognized as experts in their fields with proven records of excellence in research training and career development of young investigators. 4. We will involve the Scholars in a broad array of research and career development opportunities that encompass the spectrum of modern techniques needed for basic and translational science research. 5. We will develop excellently mentored, flexible, scholar-oriented, rigorous, and challenging Career Development and Education Programs with high standards for expected accomplishments and development of creative independent thinking, excellent science communication skills, and responsible professional conduct; on-going mentorship will help to ensure successful transition to research independence. 6. We will develop an Evaluation Program that will ensure, through frequent, rigorous review of scholar and faculty accomplishments, the success of the program and needs to improve and/or meet new research and training requirements and new challenges in the field of child health research.
