Cellular and Molecular Biology of Childhood Disease

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请寻求更新一个非常成功的CHRCDA，该CHRCDA支持华盛顿大学医学院儿科学系研究儿童疾病分子和细胞方面的儿科科学家的过渡培训。该项目的目标是通过促进年轻儿科医生获得独立研究职业所需的教育、技能和经验，识别、鼓励和支持有前途的年轻儿科医生。新的研究人员和高级教师顾问在该大学及其附属机构设有实验室：儿童医院和地区医疗中心和弗雷德哈钦森癌症研究中心，儿科部门在那里建立了临床和研究项目。项目主任和内部咨询委员会成员可在非正式研讨会、年度进度报告和日常工作中提供建议。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application seeks renewal of a highly successful CHRCDA, which supports the transitional training of pediatric scientists studying molecular and cellular aspects of childhood disease in the Department of Pediatrics, University of Washington School of Medicine. The objectives of this program are to identify, encourage, and support promising young pediatricians by facilitating their acquisition of the education, skills and experience required to initiate independent investigative careers. The new investigators and senior faculty advisors have laboratories at the University and its affiliated institutions: the Children's Hospital & Regional Medical Center and Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center, where the Department of Pediatrics has established clinical and research programs. The Program Director and members of the Internal Advisory Committee are available to advise at informal seminars and through an annual progress report and on a day-to-day basis.
