DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The aim of this application to renew the nation's only T32 training program focused exclusively on the field of perinatal epidemiology. This training program is needed to meet a growing national need for expertise in the epidemiology of pregnancy and childhood disorders and their later sequelae. We plan to recruit and train 13 pre- and post-doctoral fellows over a five year period, and to provide them with the skills to design, implement, analyze and disseminate peer-reviewed studies in the field of perinatal epidemiology. We will seek out self-starting, highly motivated individuals who can pursue their own research agendas in the broad field of perinatal epidemiology with guidance, input and supervision from experienced scientists. Eleven perinatal epidemiologists, all with NIH funding or the equivalent, one of the largest concentrations of the discipline in the US, will mentor trainees. The training program emphasizes formal course-work, intensive and carefully-mentored research experiences. Training in research ethics is a program requirement. Special training modules address laboratory genetics, perinatal clinical care, operations of a data coordination center, translation of research into public health policy in maternal and child health, and scientific communication. With a program director and associate director who are both pediatrician-epidemiologists, the program is committed to the integration of epidemiology into both medical care and public health.

描述（由申请人提供）：本申请的目的是更新全国唯一的T32培训计划，专门针对围产期流行病学领域。需要该培训计划来满足越来越多的国家对妊娠和儿童疾病流行病学专业知识及其后遗症的专业知识的需求。我们计划在五年内招募和培训13名前后博士前和博士后研究员，并为他们提供在围产期流行病学领域设计，实施，分析和传播同行评审研究的技能。我们将寻求自我启动，积极进取的人，他们可以通过经验丰富的科学家的指导，投入和监督在围产期流行病学的广泛领域中追求自己的研究议程。十一位围产期流行病学家，全都具有NIH资金或同等学历，这是美国学科最大的浓度之一，将指导受训者。该培训计划强调正式的课程工作，密集且经过精心摄取的研究经验。研究伦理培训是计划的要求。特殊培训模块介绍了实验室遗传学，围产期临床护理，数据协调中心的运作，将孕产妇和儿童公共卫生政策转化为公共卫生政策以及科学交流。该计划与儿科医生兼职医生兼副主任一起，致力于将流行病学整合到医疗和公共卫生中。
