PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This renewal application seeks NICHD support for 5 first-year and 5 second-year positions in the Pediatric Scientist Development Program (PSDP), a career development pathway for pediatric fellows from which 192 physician-scientists have graduated since 1987. The objectives of the program remain unchanged since its inception: (a) to recruit pediatric fellows whose outstanding potential for a successful investigative career can be developed in an intensively mentored setting and (b) to expand the pipeline of superbly trained pediatric physician-scientists, who will catalyze cutting-edge discoveries in child health and lead the pediatric departments of the future. Unique aspects of the PSDP include its North American scope for recruitment of fellows and mentors, its intensive focus on career development during fellowship, its supra-institutional governance under the aegis of the Association of Medical School Pediatric Department Chairs (AMSPDC), its emphasis on research environments outside departments of pediatrics, and its approach to mentoring that encompasses research mentors, PSDP advisory committees, and pediatric department chairs. Advisory Committees include a Steering Committee, which sets programmatic policy; a Selection Committee to interview PSDP candidates; and an independent Program Evaluation Committee measures the program’s effectiveness in ensuring fellows’ success. A centerpiece of the PSDP is the annual career development curriculum that convenes PSDP fellows, advisory committees, and all US and Canadian pediatric department chairs at the AMSPDC meeting. PSDP graduates have served as PIs on 335 NIH RPGs, of which 53% are currently active. Based on total awards of NIH RPGs with PSDP graduates are PIs, the return on NICHD investment is 8.8 fold. Innovations for 2017-2021 include a) leveraging NICHD funding by incorporating departmental support for up to 5 third-year fellows who will be appointed as instructors with 75-80% protected research time and b) expanding our career development curriculum with adult-learning educational modules that emphasize the fellow-to-faculty transition and team science, presented on site at AMSPDC and through web-based case-based studies. The PSDP has implemented a comprehensive strategy to expand the boundaries of child health research, to develop the research careers of rigorously trained pediatric physician-scientists, and to produce the next generation of investigative leaders in pediatrics.

项目摘要/摘要 该续签申请寻求NICHD的支持，以支持5个第一年和5个第二年职位 小儿科学家发展计划（PSDP），这是儿科研究员的职业发展途径 自1987年以来，192个身体科学家就从中毕业了。该计划的目标仍然 自成立以来没有变化：（a）招募儿科研究员，其出色的潜力 成功的调查职业可以在深入的修补环境中开发，并且（b）扩展 训练有素的小儿身体科学家的管道，他们将催化尖端的发现 在儿童健康方面，领导未来的小儿部门。 PSDP的独特方面包括其北美招募研究员和导师的范围， 它密集地关注奖学金期间的职业发展，其超级机构治理 医学院儿科椅子协会（AMSPDC）的宙斯盾，其重点 在儿科部门以外的研究环境中，及其对心理的方法 包括研究导师，PSDP咨询委员会和儿科部门主席。 咨询委员会包括一个指导委员会，该委员会制定计划政策；选择 委员会采访PSDP候选人；和一个独立的计划评估委员会 衡量该计划在确保研究员成功方面的有效性。 PSDP的核心是 召集PSDP研究员，咨询委员会以及我们所有人的年度职业发展课程 和加拿大儿科部门主席在AMSPDC会议上。 PSDP毕业生已担任 335个NIH RPG的PI，其中53％目前处于活动状态。基于NIH RPG的总奖项 PSDP毕业生是PI，NICHD投资的回报为8.8倍。 2017 - 2021年的创新包括a）利用公司的部门支持利用NICHD资金 最多5个三年级研究员将被任命为具有75-80％受保护时间的教练 b）通过成人学习教育模块扩展我们的职业发展课程 强调在AMSPDC现场介绍的同伴过渡和团队科学 基于Web的案例研究。 PSDP已经实施了一项全面的策略来扩展 儿童健康研究的界限，发展严格训练的儿科研究职业 医师科学家，并培养儿科的下一代调查领导者。
