SUMMARY A critical element to ensure new advances that translate research from bench to bedside in head and neck cancer is to attract, foster and support new investigators in this area. The Career Enhancement Program (CEP) of the Yale Head and Neck SPORE has this as its core goal. The communities of Yale, University of North Carolina and Fox Chase Cancer Center provide an ideal environment to promote this program. Each institution is strongly committed to promoting basic, translational and clinical cancer research. There is an exceptional pool of junior faculty, fellows and established investigators with outstanding potential to advance translational head and neck cancer research, plus a dedicated cohort of established head and neck investigators to serve as mentors and collaborators. To ensure that there will be a pipeline of new, improved and much needed therapies to offer to head and neck cancer patients, it is essential to increase the workforce of translational researchers who are driven to gain greater understanding of this disease and motivated to develop new treatments to reduce head and neck cancer morbidity and mortality. To achieve this the specific aims of the CEP are (1) to identify, support and mentor promising early career basics and translational investigators to work in head and neck cancer, (2) to enhance the careers of established investigators who have newly-defined interest in pursuing translational research in head and neck cancer, and (3) to contribute to the development of a diverse head and neck cancer translational work force. This is of particular importance for a cancer which disproportionately burdens communities of color, such as those in the communities surrounding our cancer centers in New Haven, Chapel Hill and Philadelphia. The CEP will support up to four awardees per year who will receive up to $50,000 per year to support their research career enhancement activities. These awardees will be drawn for the Yale, UNC and FCCC communities, selected through a careful and well-defined process, and supported by the expertise and resources of the YHN-SPORE community. These CEP awardees will go on to take their place in the next generation of physician scientists and translational researchers dedicated to address the most urgent issues in head and neck cancer.

概括 确保将研究从长凳转换为头部和颈部床边的新进步的关键因素 癌症将吸引，培养和支持该领域的新研究人员。职业增强计划（CEP） 耶鲁大学的头和脖子孢子的核心目标。耶鲁大学，北大学 卡罗来纳州和福克斯大通癌中心为促进该计划提供了理想的环境。每个机构 强烈致力于促进基本，转化和临床癌症研究。有一个例外 初级教职员工，研究员和成熟的调查员，具有推进翻译的杰出潜力 头颈癌研究，以及专门的头颈部调查人员的群体，用于服务 作为导师和合作者。确保将有一条新的，改进和急需的管道 提供针对头颈癌患者提供的疗法，必须增加翻译的劳动力 被驱使对这种疾病有更多了解并发展新的研究的研究人员 治疗以降低头颈癌的发病率和死亡率。为了实现这一目标 CEP（1）确定，支持和指导有希望的早期职业基础知识和翻译调查员 在头颈癌中工作，（2）增强了新定义的既定调查员的职业 有兴趣在头颈癌中进行转化研究，以及（3）为发展的发展 多样化的头颈癌转化劳动力。对于癌症而言，这一点尤其重要 不成比例的颜色社区，例如我们癌症周围社区的社区 纽黑文，教堂山和费城的中心。 CEP每年最多可支持四名获奖者 每年最多可获得50,000美元，以支持他们的研究职业增强活动。这些获奖者 将为耶鲁大学，UNC和FCCC社区绘制，通过仔细且定义明确的过程选择 并得到YHN-Spore社区的专业知识和资源的支持。这些CEP获奖者将继续 在下一代的医师科学家和翻译研究人员中占据一席之地 解决头颈癌中最紧急的问题。
