DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The current proposal seeks renewal of the Yale Child Health Research Career Development Program (YCHRCDP) in the Department of Pediatrics at Yale University School of Medicine. Initially funded as a P30 award from 1990-2000, over the past 19 years the YCHRCDP has fostered the career development of 44 physician-scientists studying fundamental processes of childhood disease. Our long-term goal continues to be the advancement of research in child health by selecting outstanding physician-scientists and preparing them for independent research careers, focusing on basic science research. Like many departments without a dedicated research endowment or a private research foundation, the support of the YCHRCDP has been critical and essential to developing a faculty distinguished in basic scientific investigation. It is also important to note that no other K12 programs are available to Yale Pediatrics that support junior faculty, physician-scientist training in basic science research. Reflecting the success of our program, 69% of all Scholars (72% of the 42 YCHRCDP graduates) have received NIH support, with 57% receiving 'R', 'U', or 'P' grants. 59% of all Scholars (62% of YCHRCDP graduates) have received foundation support. The percentage of Scholars receiving K awards during the current funding period (88%) exceeds the K award percentage of Scholars from 90-05 (44%). Women comprise 41% of YCHRCDP Scholars; 11% of awardees are underrepresented minorities. Of those YCHRCDP Scholars who have completed K awards at Yale (19 males and 4 females), two females attained R-01 awards and both have renewed multiple times. Seven of our graduates are now senior faculty members (Professor or Associate Professor) at Yale. Of the 23 YCHRCDP graduates at other institutions, 3 are Professors, 5 are Associate Professors, 9 are Assistant Professors, and 6 are adjunct faculty in various departments. Collectively our scholars have published 719 scientific reports. Over the past 5 years, there have been 268 reports alone. Dr. Margaret K. Hostetter, Chair of Pediatrics, is the Principal Investigator (PI) of this proposal. Dr. Scott Rivkees, Director of the Yale Child Health Research Center (YCHRC), a free- standing pediatric research unit, is the Program Director (PD) and Training Director (TD). Dr. Alda Tufro, who is Chief of Pediatric Nephrology and has considerable expertise in fellow training, will be the recruiting officer (RO). She will also focus on the recruitment of women and underrepresented minorities to the program. Over the next term of award, we will build on the strengths and traditions of our program to attract talented physicians and to nurture these young scientists as they develop nationally recognized, independent basic research programs in child health. Per the RFA, all Scholars will have at least 75% of their time devoted to research, and research activities will be in basic science or translational research with a basic science component. To achieve these goals, in the application we detail: 1. Program Administration 2. Advisory Boards 3. Program Faculty 4. Proposed Career Development Plan 5. Program Evaluation 6. Candidates/ Scholars 7. Institutional Environment and Commitment to the Program 8. Recruitment and Retention Plan to Enhance Diversity 9. Instruction in the Responsible Conduct of Research. Collectively, the above programs will continue and improve upon our tradition of training physician scientists for careers in basic science research for the betterment of child health. As in the past, we will continue to enhance the YCHRCDP over the next proposed term of the award.

描述（由申请人提供）：当前的提案寻求在耶鲁大学医学院儿科部门续签耶鲁儿童健康研究职业发展计划（YCHRCDP）。最初从1990 - 2000年获得P30奖的资金，在过去的19年中，YCHRCDP促进了44位研究儿童疾病基本过程的医师科学家的职业发展。我们的长期目标继续是通过选择杰出的医师科学家并为独立研究职业做好准备，重点关注基础科学研究，从而继续是儿童健康研究的进步。像许多没有专门研究捐赠或私人研究基金会的部门一样，YCHRCDP的支持对于发展基本科学研究中的教师至关重要，至关重要。同样重要的是要注意，没有其他K12计划可用于支持初级教职员工，医师科学培训的耶鲁儿科。通过反映我们计划的成功，所有学者中有69％（42位YCHRCDP毕业生中有72％）获得了NIH的支持，其中57％的人获得了“ R”，“ U”或“ P”赠款。所有学者中有59％（62％的YCHRCDP毕业生）获得了基础支持。当前资助期内获得K奖的学者的百分比（88％）超过了90-05学者的K奖励百分比（44％）。妇女占YCHRCDP学者的41％； 11％的获奖者是代表性不足的少数民族。在那些在耶鲁大学完成K奖的YCHRCDP学者中，有两名女性获得了R-01奖项，并且都续签了多次。我们的七名毕业生现在是耶鲁大学的高级教师（教授或副教授）。在其他机构的23名YCHRCDP毕业生中，有3位是教授，副教授，9名是助理教授，而6名是各个部门的兼职教师。我们的学者共同发表了719个科学报告。在过去的5年中，仅收到了268份报告。儿科主席Margaret K. Hostetter博士是该提案的主要研究员（PI）。耶鲁儿童健康研究中心（YCHRC）的主任Scott Rivkees博士（自由生活儿科研究部门）是计划主任（PD）兼培训总监（TD）。小儿肾脏学主任Alda Tufro博士将是招聘官（RO）。她还将专注于招募该计划的妇女和代表性不足的少数群体。在下一个奖项中，我们将基于我们计划的优势和传统，以吸引才华横溢的医生并培养这些年轻科学家在制定国家健康的独立基础研究计划的过程中。根据RFA，所有学者将至少有75％的时间用于研究，研究活动将与基础科学研究中的基础科学或翻译研究有关。为了实现这些目标，在应用程序中，我们详细说明：计划管理2。咨询委员会3。计划教师4.拟议的职业发展计划5。计划评估6。候选人/学者7.机构环境和对计划的制度环境和承诺8.招聘和保留计划以增强多样性的招聘和保留计划9.负责负责研究的指导。总的来说，上述计划将继续并改善我们培训医师科学家从事基础科学研究的职业的传统，以改善儿童健康。与过去一样，我们将在下一个奖项的颁奖典礼上继续增强YCHRCDP。
