UCLA Child Health Research Career Development Award

加州大学洛杉矶分校儿童健康研究职业发展奖（CHRCDA）的目标是 增加从事人类和分子生物学研究的儿科科学家的数量和效率 发展研究应用于儿童健康问题：（a）继续建立一个卓越中心， 继续吸引有能力的年轻儿科医生，并在 建立了多部门的教师-教师导师（共50人）：（B）通过继续创新和 灵活的计划，以适应具有广泛科学背景的个人的需求， 经验，并继续发展和完善在加州大学洛杉矶分校取得成功的机制 加拿大人权委员会培养妇女和少数民族调查人员的早期职业生涯。监测每一个 学者将继续包括CHRCDA教师导师，个性化的学术监督 委员会，首席研究员，项目主任，CHRCDA科学顾问的反馈 董事会、外部咨询委员会、儿科学系学者特定学术导师 晋升和任期，年度研讨会（如何在学术，领导和GCRC成功- 赞助的临床研究赠款研讨会，和每周的研究会议（翻译课程， 正在进行的工作研讨会、方法课程、CHRCDA研究研讨会和期刊俱乐部）： 继续为儿科疾病的创造性跨学科方法提供更多的机会， 汇集了对分子发展感兴趣的基础科学家和儿科研究人员 通过使用每月CHRCDA研究会议，将其应用于临床儿科学。我们过去的记录 证明了我们在过去十年里培养了20名学者。这些学者建立了 独立的研究项目，共6个K 08赠款，16个R 01/R21（3个待定） 一个U19赠款，一个P01赠款和20个其他基金会赠款。我们建议资助四位学者 每年通过CHRCDA，从而增加了该计划培训的学者人数， 成为未来成功的独立研究者，建立研究计划。

The objectives of the proposed UCLA Child Health Research Career Development Award (CHRCDA) is to increase the number and effectiveness of pediatric scientists engaged in Human and Molecular Development research applied to child health problems: (a) by continuing a center of excellence that will continue to attract capable young pediatricians and facilitate their career development under the guidance of established multidepartmental investigator-faculty mentors (total of 50): (b) by continuing innovative and flexible programs to accommodate the needs of individuals with a broad range of scientific backgrounds and experiences, and to continue to develop and refine mechanisms that have been successful in the UCLA CHRC for cultivating the early careers of women and minority investigators. Monitoring for each of the scholars will continue to include the CHRCDA faculty mentor, the individualized scholarly oversight committee, the principal investigator, the program director, feedback from the CHRCDA Scientific Advisory Board, the External Advisory committee, the Department of Pediatrics scholar specific academic mentor for promotion and tenure, the annual workshops (How to Succeed in Academics, Leadership and the GCRC- sponsored Clinical Research Grants Workshop, and the weekly research sessions (Translational Course, Work-in-Progress seminar, Methods Course, CHRCDA Research Seminars and Journal Club): (c) To continue to provide increased opportunities for creative inter-disciplinary approaches to pediatric diseases by bringing together basic scientists and pediatrician investigators interested in molecular development applications to clinical pediatrics through the use of monthly CHRCDA research sessions. Our past record demonstrates that we have trained 20 scholars over the past ten years. These scholars have established independent research programs as demonstrated by a total of six K08 grants, 16 R01/R21 (3 pending) grants, one U19 grant, one P01 grant and 20 other foundation grants. We propose to support four scholars per year through the CHRCDA, thereby increasing the number of scholars trained by this program towards becoming the future successful independent investigators with established research programs.
