项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Department of Obstetrics, Gynecology, and Reproductive Sciences will establish the Yale Women's Reproductive Health Research (WRHR) Career Development Center with the goal of selecting outstanding novice or more experienced scientists for advanced training in basic, translational, or clinical science under the guidance of skilled scientific mentors. The Principal Investigator (PI) and Program Director (PD) will monitor the Scholars' academic progress toward research independence. Prospective Scholars will be selected from among our residents, subspecialty fellows, and junior faculty, as well as via national networking by the PI and PD, and via advertisements in professional journals, letters to program directors and Chairs, and postings at national meetings. A selection committee will select WRHR Scholars who exhibit exceptional promise and commitment to a career in women's health research. The PI/PD and Advisory Committee will be directly involved in the training, evaluation and academic development of each WRHR scholar. Department of Ob/Gyn mentors are experienced in career development and are outstanding scientists in fields related to Women's Reproductive Health. Core training in basic lab techniques and molecular biology along with a didactic program will be required for all WRHR Scholars and will include instruction in the responsible and ethical conduct of research. Each Scholar will be assigned departmental laboratory space with access to shared teaching and training cores. In order to encourage career development, each Scholar will have 75% time and salary directly covered by the Center. Scholars will receive research support for 2-5 years to underwrite costs while they obtain preliminary data and prepare grant applications. The Yale WRHR Center will be incorporated into the overall Yale Medical Center Program in Women's Health. Scholars will enter the Department of Ob/Gyn as Assistant Professors, with appropriate office and support staff. Clinical duties and responsibilities will relate directly to research interests. There will be three WRHR Scholars in the Department at any given time. Career development will span two to five years, depending on the Scholar's initial level of experience and particular training goals as a Scholar. The Yale WRHR Center aims to foster Scholars' development into established, independent investigators. Yale shall seek to retain as faculty Scholars who successfully complete an individualized training program at Yale and who have made significant progress toward independent funding.

描述（由申请人提供）：妇产科和生殖科学系将建立耶鲁大学女性生殖健康研究（WRHR）职业发展中心，目标是选拔优秀的新手或更有经验的科学家进行基础、转化、或在熟练的科学导师的指导下进行临床科学。首席研究员 (PI) 和项目总监 (PD) 将监督学者在研究独立方面的学术进展。未来的学者将从我们的住院医师、专科研究员和初级教师中选出，并通过 PI 和 PD 的全国网络、专业期刊上的广告、给项目主任和主席的信函以及在全国会议上的帖子来选拔。选拔委员会将选出对妇女健康研究事业表现出卓越承诺和奉献精神的 WRHR 学者。 PI/PD和咨询委员会将直接参与每位WRHR学者的培训、评估和学术发展。妇产科导师在职业发展方面经验丰富，都是女性生殖健康相关领域的杰出科学家。所有 WRHR 学者都需要接受基本实验室技术和分子生物学的核心培训以及教学计划，其中包括负责任和道德的研究行为的指导。每位学者都将被分配部门实验室空间，可以使用共享的教学和培训核心。为了鼓励职业发展，每位学者75%的时间和工资将由中心直接承担。学者们将获得 2-5 年的研究支持，以承担费用，同时获取初步数据并准备资助申请。耶鲁 WRHR 中心将纳入耶鲁医疗中心女性健康整体计划。学者将进入妇产科担任助理教授，并配备适当的办公室和支持人员。临床职责和责任将与研究兴趣直接相关。在任何特定时间，该系都会有三名 WRHR 学者。职业发展将持续两到五年，具体取决于学者的初始经验水平和作为学者的特定培训目标。耶鲁大学 WRHR 中心旨在促进学者发展成为成熟的独立研究人员。耶鲁大学应寻求保留在耶鲁大学成功完成个性化培训计划并在独立资助方面取得重大进展的学者作为教员。
