项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Guttmacher Institute, the leading independent research organization in the U.S. entirely focused on fertility and reproductive health, seeks an NICHD Specialized Research Infrastructure Grant in order to support and expand the Guttmacher Center for Population Research Innovation and Dissemination. With this support, the Center will enhance the Institute's dissemination capabilities to serve and educate both researchers in the field and the general public, expand and formalize training and development activities for the Institute's own researchers, and build collaborations with colleague organizations. The Center includes 17 population scientists from the disciplines of demography, sociology, epidemiology, economics and public health, along with 19 other affiliates and technical contributors. The signature theme of the Center is fertility and reproductive health; Center affiliates have collectively made extensive contributions and publications to this area of study, including work on fertility preferences, pregnancy intentions and pregnancy outcomes; sexual behavior, contraceptive use and contraceptive services; and adolescent sexual and reproductive health. Thematic issue teams and a seminar series in which Center affiliates solicit feedback on their ongoing research, as well as collaborations with WHO, Columbia, Johns Hopkins and others, support the Institute's research objectives and the work of Center affiliates. The Center's Administrative Core makes the work of Center affiliates more efficient by shifting administrative tasks currently performed by researchers to administrative staff and improving project management skills through increased staff training. The Developmental Infrastructure Core strengthens research collaborations with other institutions and provides professional development to Center affiliates at all levels. The Dissemination Core strengthens access to information by facilitating efficient creation of public-use datasets, providing public education o how to interpret research findings, guiding researchers on publishing in peer-reviewed journals, and enhancing mechanisms for the dissemination of research findings of Center affiliates.

描述（由申请人提供）：古特马赫研究所是美国完全专注于生育和生殖健康的领先独立研究组织，寻求 NICHD 专业研究基础设施拨款，以支持和扩大古特马赫人口研究创新和传播中心。借助这一支持，该中心将增强研究所的传播能力，为该领域的研究人员和公众提供服务和教育，扩大和规范研究所自身研究人员的培训和发展活动，并与同事组织建立合作。该中心包括来自人口学、社会学、流行病学、经济学和公共卫生等学科的 17 名人口科学家，以及 19 名其他附属机构和技术贡献者。该中心的标志性主题是生育和生殖健康；中心附属机构共同为这一研究领域做出了广泛的贡献和出版物，包括关于生育偏好、怀孕意向和怀孕结果的工作；性行为、避孕药具的使用和避孕服务；和青少年性健康和生殖健康。中心附属机构通过专题小组和一系列研讨会征求对其正在进行的研究的反馈，以及与世卫组织、哥伦比亚大学、约翰·霍普金斯大学等机构的合作，支持研究所的研究目标和中心附属机构的工作。该中心的行政核心将目前由研究人员执行的行政任务转移给行政人员，并通过增加员工培训来提高项目管理技能，从而使中心附属机构的工作更加高效。发展基础设施核心加强与其他机构的研究合作，并为各级中心附属机构提供专业发展。传播核心通过促进公共使用数据集的高效创建、提供如何解释研究结果的公共教育、指导研究人员在同行评审期刊上发表文章以及加强中心附属机构研究成果的传播机制来加强信息获取。
