The principal mission of the University of California, San Francisco (UCSF) Women~s Reproductive Health Research (WRHR) Career Development Center is to promote health and prevent disease in women by expanding the pool of well-trained, imaginative, productive investigators in the field of women's reproductive health. It is our purpose to recruit and prepare outstanding candidates to acquire the new skills needed to reach this goal. In recent years, board-certified obstetrician-gynecologists from even the most renown institutions have experienced difficulty in obtaining faculty positions and establishing independent research programs following traditional 2-3 year postdoctoral fellowships. This challenge to a once successful approach can be traced to four major causes: 1) decreasing reimbursement for clinical services, 2) changes in undergraduate and graduate medical curricula, 3) increased competition for federal research dollars, and 4) the ever increasing complexity of contemporary research methodologies. To meet the challenge of this new era we propose a mentored, structured Scholarship program of sufficient duration, adequate relevant course work, immersion into a vibrant, intellectually challenging, academic research community and "hands-on" research experience leading to the ability to be a productive, independent and funded junior faculty member. Further, we feel that, even during the initial years of a junior faculty position, appropriate scientific mentoring allows the individual to overcome the initial hurdles leading to a rewarding, successful and productive academic career. Scholars pursuing biomedical research in reproductive science will do so under the aegis of the Reproductive Endocrinology Center. Those Scholars pursuing investigative careers in clinical research will receive their training from faculty in our Family Planning Institute, and Clinical and Outcomes Research Group. Transnational research experience will be gained through participation in studies bridging these biomedically and clinically oriented groups within the Department. Moreover, Scholars will benefit from the long-standing multi disciplinary partnerships with other colleagues at USCF. Long-term, we envision a cadre of Scholars trained at the USCF Women~s Reproductive Health Research Career Development Center who are helping to improve the health status of women by conducting important fundamental and clinical research, expanding knowledge, and discovering and testing innovations for the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of reproductive disorders in women.

加利福尼亚大学旧金山大学的主要任务 （UCSF）妇女的生殖健康研究（WRHR）职业发展 中心是通过扩大妇女促进健康和预防疾病 训练有素，富有想象力的生产研究人员 妇女生殖健康领域。 这是我们的目的 招募和准备好候选人以获取新技能 需要达到这个目标。 近年来，来自董事会认证的产科医生 最著名的机构在获取方面遇到了困难 教师职位并建立独立研究计划 遵循传统的2 - 3年的博士后研究金。 这 曾经对曾经成功的方法的挑战可以追溯到四个主要 原因：1）减少临床服务的报销，2）变化 在本科和研究生医学课程中，3）增加 联邦研究金的竞争，4）不断增加 当代研究方法的复杂性。 为了满足这个新时代的挑战，我们提出了一个指导者， 足够持续时间，足够的结构化奖学金计划 相关课程工作，沉浸在充满活力的，智力上 具有挑战性，学术研究界和“动手”研究 经验导致成为一个富有成效，独立和的能力 资助的初级教师。 此外，我们感到，即使在 初级教师职位的最初几年，适当的科学 指导使个人能够克服最初的障碍 导致有意义，成功和富有成效的学术职业。 从事生殖科学生物医学研究的学者将做 因此，在生殖内分泌学中心的宙斯盾下。 那些 从事临床研究的调查职业的学者将 从我们的计划生育研究所的教师那里接受培训， 以及临床和结果研究小组。 跨国研究 通过参与桥接的研究将获得经验 这些在生物医学和临床方面 部门。 此外，学者将从长期的 与USCF的其他同事建立多学科合作伙伴关系。 长期，我们设想了在USCF培训的学者干部 妇女的生殖健康研究职业发展中心谁 正在通过进行妇女的健康状况来帮助提高妇女的健康状况 重要的基本和临床研究，扩大知识以及 发现和测试预防，诊断和 女性生殖障碍的治疗。
