Education

教育办公室为平均320名学员提供研讨会、项目和个性化机会，其中包括博士后、访问研究员和研究研究员、临床研究员和医学生、研究生、学士学位后和技术研究员以及夏季实习生。这些活动通常包括：公开演讲研讨会、求职面试、写作和编辑服务、大师级研讨会、职业介绍和咨询、通过NICHD成为有效的科学家课程的教学机会、技能研讨会和与马里兰大学的培训计划，以及管理计划。每年春季都会为研究员和研究生举办一年一度的静修活动，最多100人参加，以讨论科学发展和职业生涯，其中包括同行演示和每位与会者的海报演示。该项目由一个同学指导委员会开发和运行。 该办公室过去一年的成就包括：伊维特·皮特曼博士继续在教育办公室担任副主任。作为NICHD的前博士后研究员，她开发了我们的TMT(三分钟演讲)比赛，现在已经进入第二个年头，今年与NIDCR和NHGRI一起开展。哈罗德·伯吉斯博士实验室的凯瑟琳·塔博尔博士获得了一等奖。该办公室已为研究员开发了在线年度进展审查，将于2015年9月启动，将跟踪科学和职业发展和进展情况；将为平衡计生委员会的现场访问提供年度进展报告，新系统具有报告生成能力。NICHD校友数据库从2008年到现在已经更新，这导致了我们的Linked In校友组的扩大。2015年6月，校内研究部将第八届年度最佳导师奖颁发给卡尔·费费尔博士和查德·麦考密克博士。2016年的比赛共颁发了28个车费奖项。研究员校内补助金补编(FICS)继续承认和鼓励研究员中的补助金申请，研究员招聘奖励奖(FRIA)继续支持从传统上在科学界代表性不足的人群中招聘博士后的调查人员。NICHD学者项目已进入第五个年头，包括一名医学博士/博士生在该研究所进行论文研究，一名继续攻读学士学位的研究生，以及三名新的博士后。奖学金项目的重点是“培养人才”，支持学员的学业和职业发展。《NICHD Connection》月刊于2015年8月出版第63期，面向校内司所有成员和我们的校友。

The Office of Education delivers workshops, programs, and individualized opportunities to a population averaging 320 trainees, including postdoctoral, visiting, and research fellows; clinical fellows and medical students; graduate students; and postbaccalaureate and technical fellows, as well as summer trainees. The activities include, typically: public speaking workshops, job interviewing, writing and editorial services, grantsmanship workshops, career presentations and counseling, teaching opportunities through the NICHD Becoming an Effective Scientist course for postbacs and skills workshops and a training program with the University of Maryland, and management programs. An annual retreat for fellows and graduate students is held for up to 100 people each spring to address scientific developments and careers, which includes fellow presentations and a poster presentation by each attendee. The program is developed and run by a fellow-student steering committee. Among the office's accomplishments from the past year: Dr. Yvette Pittman continues in the Office of Education as Associate Director. A former NICHD postdoctoral fellow, she developed our TmT (Three-minute Talks) competition, now in its second year and conducted this year together with NIDCR and NHGRI. Dr. Kathryn Tabor in the laboratory of Dr. Harold Burgess received the first place award. The office has developed an online Annual Progress Review for fellows, to be launched in September 2015, which will track scientific and career development and progress; APRs will be provided for BSC site visits, and the new system has report-generating capability. The database of NICHD alumni from 2008 to the present has been updated, which has led to an expansion of our Linked In alumni group. In June 2015, the Division of Intramural Research gave its eighth Mentor of the Year awards to Karl Pfeifer, Ph.D., investigator; and Chad McCormick, Ph.D., fellow. Twenty-eight FARE awards were made for the 2016 competition. A Fellows Intramural Grants Supplement (FIGS) continues to recognize and stimulate grant applications among fellows, and the Fellows Recruitment Incentive Award (FRIA) continues to support investigators who recruit postdocs from populations traditionally underrepresented in science. The NICHD Scholars program, in its fifth year, includes one MD/PhD student conducting his thesis research in the institute, one continuing postbaccalaureate fellow, and three new postbacs. The Scholars program focuses on "developing talent" and supporting trainees' academic and career progression. The NICHD Connection monthly newsletter published its 63rd issue in August 2015 and reaches all members of the intramural division and our alumni.
