 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overarching goal of the Penn BIRCWH is to develop a cadre of independent investigators in women's health who are sophisticated in their knowledge of how sex and gender differences and similarities create opportunities to improve health and well-being for women. The focus on sex and gender differences as the lens with which the Penn BIRCWH Scholars will consider women's health is consistent with the recent emphasis from the National Institute of Health and the Office of Research on Women's Health to study both sexes/genders when possible. The University of Pennsylvania (Penn) has a long-standing commitment to women's health and will provide BIRCWH Scholars with incomparable opportunities for interdisciplinary research focusing on the biomedical, social science, health services, communications, and economic aspects of women's health in the United States and abroad. The proposed program will have a steady state of 3 BIRCWH Scholars (senior post-doctoral fellows or early junior faculty) with financial and programmatic support from the University of Pennsylvania Office of the Vice Provost for Research and the Schools of Medicine, Nursing, Veterinary Medicine and Arts and Sciences, in addition to that provided by the BIRCWH funding mechanism. The Penn BIRCWH Program will benefit from Penn President Dr. Amy Gutmann's mandate to create "one school", encouraging interdisciplinary, between-school collaborations. Scholars will be chosen by the Advisory Board and Program/Research Directors and will be assigned faculty mentor teams from the above mentioned schools, Wharton School of Business, the Annenberg School of Communications, the School of Social Policy and Practice, and the Leonard Davis Institute, insuring that Scholars understand the implications of their specific area of women's health research in the broadest terms possible. Scholars will benefit from the exceptional intellectual and career development opportunities from across the university, in addition to those included in the BIRCWH Core Activities. Successful completion of these goals will create independent investigators who are skilled in collaborative, interdisciplinary research, fostering ground- breaking instead of incremental advances in women's health.

 描述（由适用提供）：Penn Bircwh的总体目标是开发一群独立的妇女健康研究人员，这些研究人员在了解性别和性别差异和相似之处的知识中很精致，从而为改善妇女的健康和福祉提供了机会。对性别和性别差异的重点是Penn Bircwh学者认为妇女健康的镜头，这与美国国家健康研究所和妇女健康研究所最近的重点是一致的，并在可能的情况下研究了两性/性别。宾夕法尼亚大学（PENN）对妇女健康有一项长期的承诺，并将为Bircwh学者提供无与伦比的跨学科研究机会，重点介绍了美国和国外妇女健康的生物医学，社会科学，卫生服务，传播以及经济方面。拟议的计划将在宾夕法尼亚大学研究副教务长办公室以及医学，护理，兽医医学和艺术和科学的副教务长办公室以及宾夕法尼亚大学副教务长办公室的财务和计划支持下，具有3个BIRCWH学者（高级博士后研究员或初级教师）的稳态状态。 Penn Bircwh计划将受益于宾夕法尼亚州总裁艾米·古特曼（Amy Gutmann）博士创建“一所学校”的任务，鼓励跨学科的，同学之间的合作。学者将由顾问委员会和计划/研究主管选出，并将分配上述学校，沃顿商学院，安嫩伯格通讯学院，社会政策与实践学院以及伦纳德·戴维斯学院（Leonard Davis Institute）的教师导师团队，并将学者理解其对妇女健康研究的特定领域的含义。除Bircwh核心活动中的那些人外，学者们还将受益于整个大学的杰出知识和职业发展机会。这些目标的成功完成将创建独立的调查人员，这些调查人员熟练，跨学科研究，促进开创性，而不是女性健康的增量进步。
