Cancer Research Career Enhancement and Related Activities

癌症研究职业发展和相关活动的首要使命 组成部分是招募，培训，指导，发展和支持当前和未来的癌症研究 在教育和职业发展的各个阶段， 从中学到终身教职研究人员。这支队伍对于理解 癌症机制，改进疗法的持续发展，癌症的预防 通过查明和减少风险，消除健康结果方面的差异。 这一使命将通过三个具体目标来实现：（1）培养熟练的调查人员， 通过CCSG对齐的癌症研究生课程进行跨学科的转化癌症研究 科学，加强博士后计划，和强大的临床肿瘤学奖学金计划;（2） 通过导师制、教育和研究种子基金促进教师的职业发展;以及（3） 通过实习，学校外展， 继续医学教育、科学研讨会和国际交流。研究教育 通过长期和成功的罗斯韦尔公园研究生部，附属于大学 在布法罗，将专注于推出新的完全以癌症为重点的癌症博士和硕士课程 科学，差异化，以利用罗斯韦尔公园的癌症为中心的身份和资源， 包括与中心的五个CCSG研究计划中的每一个战略一致的轨道。 博士后教育将经历导师实践和期望的标准化， 介绍研究培训经验的核心要求，并扩大讲习班和 职业发展活动和资源。师资队伍建设将继续扩大 制定方案，通过大规模培训加强对初级和中级教师的指导， 模拟学习部分，与跨学科的高级和临床教师合作，以及目标团队科学试验资助和行政支助。高中生，大学生， 将鼓励医学/专业学校的水平，并准备追求癌症研究的职业生涯 通过暑期实习在罗斯韦尔公园研究环境中的沉浸式体验， 计划和K-12学校外展活动。社区合作伙伴将参与并接受培训， 有效地向其不同的社区提供癌症健康信息，并与 研究人员作为患者的倡导者。社区医生将接受继续医学教育， 临床实践中基于证据的改进，国际研究和临床实习生将 利用世界的跨学科和翻译研究和培训环境， 类综合癌症中心。

The overarching mission of the Cancer Research Career Enhancement and Related Activities component is to recruit, train, mentor, develop, and support the current and future cancer research workforce, with diverse representation, at all stages of education and career advancement from secondary school to tenure-track research faculty. This workforce is critical to the understanding of cancer mechanisms, the continued development of improved therapies, the prevention of cancers through the identification and reduction of risks, and the elimination of disparities in health outcomes. This mission will be pursued through three specific aims: (1) developing investigators skilled in interdisciplinary, translational cancer research through a CCSG-aligned graduate program in Cancer Sciences, an enhanced postdoctoral program, and strong clinical oncology fellowship programs; (2) advancing the careers of faculty through mentorship, education, and seed funding for research; and (3) providing cancer education in Western New York and beyond through internships, school outreach, continuing medical education, scientific symposia, and international exchanges. Research education through the long-standing and successful Roswell Park Graduate Division, affiliated with the University at Buffalo, will focus on the launch of new entirely cancer-focused PhD and MS programs in Cancer Sciences, differentiated to leverage Roswell Park’s cancer-centered identity and resources and including tracks strategically aligned to each of the Center’s five CCSG Research Programs. Postdoctoral education will undergo standardization of practices and expectations across mentors, the introduction of core requirements of the research training experience, and expanded workshop and career development activities and resources. Faculty development will continue to expand programming to enhance mentorship of junior and mid-level faculty through grantsmanship training and mock study sections, collaboration with senior and clinical faculty across disciplines, and targeted teamscience pilot funding and administrative support. Students at the high school, college, and medical/professional school levels will be encouraged and prepared to pursue cancer research careers through immersive experiences in the Roswell Park research environment through summer internships programs and K-12 school outreach activities. Community partners will be engaged and trained to effectively deliver cancer health messaging to their diverse communities and to partner with researchers as patient advocates. Community physicians will receive continuing medical education on evidence-based improvements in clinical practice, and international research and clinical trainees will avail themselves of the interdisciplinary and translational research and training environment of a world class comprehensive cancer center.
