Program Summary: The Training Program in Reproductive, Perinatal, and Pediatric (RPP) Life Course Epidemiology – sponsored by the Departments of Epidemiology, Social and Behavioral Sciences, and Biostatistics at the Harvard TH Chan School of Public Health – aims to prepare the next generation of life course-focused, innovative, transdisciplinary investigators in the field of RPP research. The Program is further supported by the departments of Environmental Health, Nutrition, and Immunology and Infectious Diseases, reflecting the transdisciplinary nature of RPP life course epidemiology. The Program boasts accomplished faculty who have worked collaboratively to advance our understanding of the critical issues faced in the field of RPP life course epidemiologic health research. The overarching goals of the Program are to train pre- and postdoctoral fellows to become future leading scholars who are: 1) knowledgeable about the current state of science in RPP life course epidemiology; 2) skilled in advanced epidemiological and biostatistical methods to undertake RPP life course research; 3) skilled in effective communication, with a strong ability to formulate and write research proposals and scientific manuscripts for publication, as well as to interpret and disseminate data to scientific and lay communities; and 4) anchored in peer and professional networks including individual and group mentorship opportunities that support continuous professional development, leadership, teamwork, and access to resources to translate knowledge into new independent areas of RPP life course epidemiologic research. The Program aims to not only develop knowledge, skills, and capacity toward scientific excellence in RPP sciences, but also inspire a generation of young scholars to adapt to the evolving research climate, which will increasingly require a transdisciplinary, team-science approach to tackle contemporary and future public health issues. Thus, pre- and postdoctoral fellows will follow transdisciplinary training involving a combination of coursework, seminars, practicum, and independent and collaborative research in RPP life course epidemiology. A key aspect of this application is a cutting-edge mentoring plan, which involves assigning at least three mentors from different career stages, with expertise in the fellow’s broad area of research interest. Each fellow will obtain hands-on experience with study planning, data collection, and data analysis in a rich training environment leveraging well-established cohorts led by Program Faculty, with additional mentoring in competing for funds, reviewing and publishing, teaching and public speaking, and leadership and citizenship, which will provide a bridge to launching independent careers in RPP epidemiologic research. Aligned with the mission of the NICHD, this Program will strive to build capacity toward a scientific workforce that will be equipped to advance our understanding of significant reproductive, perinatal, and pediatric health issues, and use cutting-edge evidence to inform clinical practice, translate science into policy action, and implement prevention strategies to improve the health of women and children across the reproductive life course.

项目摘要：生殖、​​围产期和儿科 (RPP) 生命历程培训项目 流行病学——由流行病学、社会和行为科学系赞助，以及 哈佛大学陈曾熙公共卫生学院生物统计学——旨在为下一代生活做好准备 RPP 研究领域以课程为中心的、创新的、跨学科的研究人员。 在环境健康、营养、免疫学和传染病部门的支持下， 该项目反映了 RPP 生命历程流行病学的跨学科性质。 教师们通力合作，增进我们对该领域面临的关键问题的理解 RPP 生命历程流行病学健康研究该计划的总体目标是培训学前和学前教育。 博士后研究员成为未来的领先学者，他们：1）了解当前的状态 RPP生命过程流行病学科学；2）熟练掌握先进的流行病学和生物统计学方法 承担RPP生命历程研究；3）善于有效沟通，具有较强的制定和制定能力； 撰写研究计划和科学手稿以供出版，以及解释和传播数据 科学界和非专业界；4) 扎根于同行和专业网络，包括个人和 团体辅导机会，支持持续的专业发展、领导力、团队合作和 获取资源，将知识转化为 RPP 生命历程流行病学的新的独立领域 该计划的目的不仅是培养知识、技能和能力，以实现科学卓越。 RPP 科学，也激励一代年轻学者适应不断变化的研究氛围， 将越来越需要跨学科、团队科学的方法来解决当代和未来的公共问题 因此，博士前和博士后研究员将接受涉及组合的跨学科培训。 RPP 生命历程中的课程作业、研讨会、实习以及独立和协作研究 该应用程序的一个关键方面是尖端指导计划，其中涉及分配 至少三位来自不同职业阶段的导师，在该研究员广泛的研究兴趣领域拥有专业知识。 每位研究员都将获得丰富的研究计划、数据收集和数据分析的实践经验。 培训环境利用由项目教师领导的成熟团队，并提供额外的指导 争夺资金、评论和出版、教学和公开演讲、领导力和公民身份， 这将为开展 RPP 流行病学研究的独立职业提供桥梁。 NICHD 的使命，该计划将努力建设科学劳动力的能力， 能够增进我们对重大生殖、围产期和儿科健康问题的理解，以及 使用前沿证据为临床实践提供信息，将科学转化为政策行动，并实施 改善妇女和儿童整个生殖生命过程健康的预防战略。
