DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): With the knowledge that scientific discovery and application is often an inefficient process, the National Institute of Health (NIH) launched the Clinical Translational Science Award (CTSA) program to transform the research and training environment to enhance efficiency and quality of clinical and translational research. An explicit expectation is that the CTSA sites would discover a way to leverage these programs to create linkages and synergy across programs to conduct efficient, high quality research. Concurrently, Congress passed the NIH reauthorization act that explicitly indicated the necessity of including children's health research in these scientific endeavors. This proposal, supporting the Child Health CTSA Consortia Meeting spans for three years, with meetings that will occur in conjunction with the Pediatric Academic Societies (PAS) annual meeting. The PAS annual meeting offers a unique opportunity to capture the largest committed group of child health scientists that exist, spanning multiple disciplines and organizations. The three objectives of the one and a half day Child Health CTSA Consortia Meeting include: 1) to bring lead pediatric CTSA institutional researchers together to share expertise that can be utilized at and across CTSA sites; 2) to expand the reach of this expertise to a larger group of pediatric scientists attending the PAS meeting, many of whom belong to non-CTSA institutions and are also critical to child health research efforts; and 3) to provide a CTSA child health fellowship program, aimed at fellows and junior faculty, to promote career development in clinical and translational research. Children's health research is unique in multiple ways and requires a special perspective and expertise. Three topic areas were selected through discussions with the CTSA Child Health Oversight committee membership, representing the most experienced pediatric researchers in clinical translational research across the country. The proposed Child Health CTSA Consortia Meeting will build collaborations across both CTSA and non-CTSA sites to learn core skills in three key areas, over three years including: 1) Year one: Informatics; 2) Year two: Community engagement, and 3) Year three: Life continuum research. Both senior and junior child health investigators will provide state of the art processes and applications in the three noted areas. Yearly, this will occur via an interactive workshop, CTSA child health fellow presentations, two symposia, and an abstract session. PROJECT NARRARIVE The proposed meeting will partner Clinical Translational Science Award (CTSA) child health researchers from the 46 institutional sites with leading child health scientists attending the Pediatric Academic Societies' (PAS) national meeting. This will build collaborations across both CTSA and non-CTSA sites to learn core skills that will enhance the ability to conduct quality clinical child health research.

描述（由申请人提供）：鉴于科学发现和应用通常是一个效率低下的过程，美国国家卫生研究院（NIH）启动了临床转化科学奖（CTSA）计划，以改变研究和培训环境以提高临床和翻译研究的效率和质量。一个明确的期望是，CTSA站点将发现一种利用这些程序来建立跨程序的联系和协同作用的方法，以进行高效，高质量的研究。同时，国会通过了《 NIH重新授权法》，该法案明确地表明有必要将儿童的健康研究包括在这些科学努力中。该提案支持儿童健康CTSA财团会议跨越三年，将与儿科学术社会（PAS）年度会议结合会议。 PAS年度会议提供了一个独特的机会，可以捕获跨越多个学科和组织的最大忠诚的儿童健康科学家组。一日半的儿童健康CTSA财团会议的三个目标包括：1）将主要儿科CTSA机构研究人员聚集在一起，共享可以在CTSA站点和跨CTSA网站上使用的专业知识； 2）将这种专业知识的覆盖范围扩大到参加PAS会议的一群儿科科学家，其中许多人属于非CTSA机构，对儿童健康研究工作至关重要； 3）提供针对研究员和初级教师的CTSA儿童健康奖学金计划，以促进临床和转化研究领域的职业发展。儿童的健康研究在多种方面是独一无二的，需要特殊的观点和专业知识。通过与CTSA儿童健康监督委员会成员资格的讨论选择了三个主题领域，代表了全国经验丰富的儿科研究人员。拟议的儿童健康CTSA财团会议将在CTSA和非CTSA网站上建立合作，以在三年中在三个关键领域学习核心技能，包括：1）一年级：信息学； 2）第二年：社区参与，3）三年级：生活连续研究。高级和初级儿童健康调查人员都将在三个著名领域提供最先进的过程和应用。每年，这将通过互动研讨会，CTSA儿童健康演讲，两个研讨会和一个抽象会议进行。 项目叙述 拟议的会议将与来自46个机构地点的临床转化科学奖（CTSA）儿童健康研究人员与参加儿科学术社会的领先儿童健康科学家（PAS）全国会议。这将在CTSA和非CTSA网站上建立合作，以学习核心技能，以增强进行优质临床儿童健康研究的能力。
