This third phase of support for the Center for Child Injury Prevention Studies builds on a strong foundation that will, at the end of five years, transition into sustainability with the help of a broad base of industry and interested government agency support. This Industry/University Cooperative Research Center is the only one devoted to the study of child, youth, and young adult automotive injury and injury prevention; and it applies its leadership position, cutting edge research, and synergistic partnerships to achieve its mission, by facilitating the conduct of scientific inquiry into child automotive injuries and translating these findings into commercial applications, interventions, policies, and public education programs for prevention. The fundamental idea behind the Center is that children, youth, and young adults are not small adults (mechanically, psychologically, developmentally, or socially) and car crash injuries are one of their leading causes of death and acquired disability. Effective interventions, based on sound scientific foundations to car crash injuries in these age groups and their causes, are a national priority. As regulation, technology and consumer behavior and demand become increasingly complex and sophisticated, industry and government research and findings from the Center are able to guide strategies to protect our nation's children. The Center for Child Injury Prevention Studies works collaboratively with industry across five related themes: biomechanics; technological solutions; human factors; safety promotion and education; and evaluation; and over the course of the last ten years the Center has more than quadrupled its dues paying membership from 5 to 22 members, initiating and completing 92 individual research projects that heavily leverage private sector funds. Broader impacts of the Center include student education and engagement in research, promoting the national health by providing fundamental research on child injuries and strategies for prevention, and performing precompetitive research of interest to a wide variety of private sector and governmental sponsors.In this renewal phase (Phase III), Center leadership and its Industrial Advisory Board will continue to refine Center processes that they develop collaboratively to ensure that research carried out by the Center is diverse and responsive to scientific and industry needs. In the new phase, the Center is expanding its intellectual and research reach from automotive injuries and prevention to include those of injuries related to sports and aviation.

对儿童伤害预防研究中心的第三阶段支持建立在坚实的基础之上，该基础将在五年后在广泛的行业基础和感兴趣的政府机构的支持下过渡到可持续发展。 该产学合作研究中心是唯一一个专门研究儿童、青少年和青年汽车伤害和伤害预防的中心；它利用其领导地位、前沿研究和协同合作伙伴关系来实现其使命，促进对儿童汽车伤害的科学调查，并将这些发现转化为商业应用、干预措施、政策和预防公共教育计划。该中心背后的基本理念是，儿童、青少年和青年人并不是小成年人（在机械、心理、发育或社交方面），车祸伤害是他们死亡和后天残疾的主要原因之一。基于合理的科学基础对这些年龄段的车祸伤害及其原因进行有效干预是国家的优先事项。随着监管、技术、消费者行为和需求变得越来越复杂和精密，行业和政府的研究以及该中心的调查结果能够指导保护我们国家儿童的战略。 儿童伤害预防研究中心与业界在五个相关主题上进行合作：生物力学；技术解决方案；人为因素；安全宣传和教育；和评价；在过去十年中，该中心的会费会员数量增加了四倍多，从 5 名增加到 22 名，发起并完成了 92 个大量利用私营部门资金的个人研究项目。该中心的更广泛影响包括学生教育和参与研究，通过提供儿童伤害和预防策略的基础研究来促进国民健康，以及进行各种私营部门和政府赞助商感兴趣的赛前研究。 （第三阶段），中心领导层及其工业顾问委员会将继续完善他们合作开发的中心流程，以确保中心开展的研究多样化并满足科学和行业需求。在新阶段，该中心正在扩大其知识和研究范围，从汽车伤害和预防扩展到与运动和航空相关的伤害。
