DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application requests support to establish a BIRCWH Program at Northwestern University titled, Career Development in Women's Health (CDWH). This program will be used to develop a group of independent, tenure track scientists with backgrounds in clinical medicine or basic science disciplines whose research will address high priority areas relevant to women's health. We have identified five focus areas that have been historically strong within Northwestern and that are fundamental to the understanding and treatment of women's health and disease - differences in cardiovascular disease risk; ovarian biology; obstetrical and gynecological disorders; sex differences in sleep and rheumatology and osteoporosis. In order to develop expertise outside the Ob/Gyn specialty, faculty members who have interdisciplinary training in basic reproductive science and gender-specific disease research must be cultivated. Northwestern has a long- standing and rich tradition of interdisciplinary excellence in the reproductive sciences and in disorders that affect women, providing a strong foundation upon which the CDWH Program will be developed. In achieving our goal, the Career Development in Women's Health Program will create a focused curriculum, provide strong mentorship and engaged faculty development activities. The junior faculty trained through this program will be in the vanguard of women's health research scholarship and it is anticipated will expand the training to an ever widening group of clinicians and investigators. The program at Northwestern University is robust, timely and rigorous. Three key ingredients drive this application and will underlie the success of the candidates: high quality research programs, high expectations, and a robust training environment. The CDWH program at Northwestern University is dedicated to these criteria and to the next generation of clinical investigators and translational scientists who will improve health and allay disease in women and men.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请要求支持在西北大学建立BIRCWH计划，名为《妇女健康职业发展》（CDWH）。该计划将用于开发一组具有临床医学或基础科学学科背景背景的独立，终身制科学家，其研究将解决与妇女健康有关的高优先级领域。我们已经确定了五个在西北部历史上很强的焦点领域，这些领域是对妇女健康和疾病的理解和治疗基础 - 心血管疾病风险的差异；卵巢生物学；产科和妇科疾病；睡眠和风湿病和骨质疏松症的性别差异。为了在OB/GYN专业之外发展专业知识，必须培养在基本生殖科学和性别特异性疾病研究中接受跨学科培训的教职员工。西北航空在生殖科学和影响妇女的疾病方面具有悠久而丰富的跨学科卓越传统，这为CDWH计划提供了坚实的基础。为了实现我们的目标，妇女健康计划的职业发展将创建一个集中的课程，提供强大的指导和敬业的教师发展活动。通过该计划培训的初级教职员工将成为妇女健康研究奖学金的先锋，预计将把培训扩展到一群不断扩大的临床医生和研究人员。西北大学的计划是强大，及时而严格的。三种关键成分推动了此应用程序，并将构成候选人的成功：高质量的研究计划，高期望和强大的培训环境。西北大学的CDWH计划致力于这些标准，以及下一代临床研究者和转化科学家，他们将改善男女的健康和疾病。
