Abstract

Background: Physician-scientists are a crucial link between clinical practice and research. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) initiated the Marshall Klaus Perinatal Research Award to enhance the development of research skills among physicians training in Neonatal-Perinatal Medicine.

Methods: In this study, we sought to identify trends in funding along with geographical and demographic variables of the applicants and mentees and assess the applicants' scholarly productivity and funding from the National Institutes of Health (NIH). We reviewed the data of applicants and awardees from 2015-2024.

Results: We found that basic science applications had a higher funding likelihood than clinical/translational applications. The geographical distribution of awardees is skewed. There was a significant association between awardee status and K08 or K23 funding attainment.

Conclusions: Future efforts should support more equitable award distribution and a diverse research landscape in neonatal-perinatal medicine.

美国儿科学会马歇尔-克劳斯新生儿围产期医学研究补助金计划的成功与机遇。

背景：医生科学家是临床实践与研究之间的重要纽带。美国儿科学会（AAP）设立了马歇尔-克劳斯围产期研究奖（Marshall Klaus Perinatal Research Award），以提高接受新生儿-围产期医学培训的医生的研究技能：在这项研究中，我们试图确定资助趋势以及申请人和被资助人的地理和人口变量，并评估申请人的学术生产力和美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）的资助情况。我们审查了 2015-2024 年间申请人和获奖者的数据：我们发现，与临床/转化申请相比，基础科学申请获得资助的可能性更高。获奖者的地理分布存在偏差。获奖者身份与获得K08或K23资助之间存在明显关联：结论：未来的努力应支持新生儿围产期医学领域更公平的奖项分配和多样化的研究环境。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Perinatology provides members of the perinatal/neonatal healthcare team with original information pertinent to improving maternal/fetal and neonatal care. We publish peer-reviewed clinical research articles, state-of-the art reviews, comments, quality improvement reports, and letters to the editor. Articles published in the Journal of Perinatology embrace the full scope of the specialty, including clinical, professional, political, administrative and educational aspects. The Journal also explores legal and ethical issues, neonatal technology and product development. The Journal’s audience includes all those that participate in perinatal/neonatal care, including, but not limited to neonatologists, perinatologists, perinatal epidemiologists, pediatricians and pediatric subspecialists, surgeons, neonatal and perinatal nurses, respiratory therapists, pharmacists, social workers, dieticians, speech and hearing experts, other allied health professionals, as well as subspecialists who participate in patient care including radiologists, laboratory medicine and pathologists.
