Montana State University’s (MSU) research translation activity in terms of invention disclosures, patents filed, and US patents issued has lagged behind the nation when compared to 0its strong and growing fundamental research portfolio. MSU’s unmet research translation potential is an especially pressing concern given that it serves the low-population, historically under-resourced, and geographically isolated state of Montana. This Accelerating Research Translation project will work to overcome these hurdles and capitalize on the promise of translational activities and university-industry partnerships to advance STEM research capacities, infrastructure, pipelines, and workforce; spur economic development; and address diverse community needs in an under-served region of the United States. The project’s main goals are to 1) build on the university’s land-grant mission and culture of societal problem-solving with entrepreneurship and research translation as added core values; 2) increase research translation capacities through sustainable programs and support; and 3) elevate MSU’s levels of research translation in line with its very high research activity. By improving the rate of research translating to practice, and by broadening participation of underrepresented minorities in research translation, this project will contribute to improvements in economic competitiveness and societal well-being while sustaining research excellence at MSU. Expected outcomes, including a more diverse and energized community of students, staff, and researchers who value and pursue translational activities of direct benefit to society, will be accomplished via an integrated mix of innovative and inclusive training, support, and partnerships. A design thinking program will combine with an entrepreneurship curriculum to teach use-inspired approaches and co-produce culturally and geographically relevant translational research and solutions. A comprehensive suite of support will advance high-potential, high-impact research translation in the form of Seed Translational Research Projects (STRP) and encourage university spinout companies at greater rates. Local and regional partnerships with ART ambassadors and the University of Washington will promote research facilitation champions on campus, facilitate multi-institutional exchanges of ideas and best practices, provide mentorship, and allow access to well-established entrepreneurship and spinout services. These synergistic activities will be tailored to regional contexts and needs, and will prioritize inclusivity and diversity, with particular attention to Montana’s rural and Tribal communities. The project is partially supported by NSF’s Louis Stokes Alliances for Minority Participation program.This award reflects NSF's statutory mission and has been deemed worthy of support through evaluation using the Foundation's intellectual merit and broader impacts review criteria.

蒙大拿州立大学（MSU）在发明披露、专利申请和美国专利发布方面的研究翻译活动，与其强大且不断增长的基础研究组合相比，一直落后于全国。密歇根州立大学的未满足的研究翻译潜力是一个特别紧迫的问题，因为它服务于人口少，历史上资源不足，地理上孤立的蒙大拿州。这个加速研究翻译项目将致力于克服这些障碍，并利用翻译活动和大学-行业合作伙伴关系的承诺，以提高STEM研究能力，基础设施，管道和劳动力;刺激经济发展;并解决美国服务不足地区的多样化社区需求。该项目的主要目标是：1）建立在大学的赠地使命和解决社会问题的文化基础上，并将创业和研究翻译作为附加的核心价值; 2）通过可持续的计划和支持提高研究翻译能力; 3）根据其非常高的研究活动提升密歇根州立大学的研究翻译水平。通过提高研究转化为实践的速度，并通过扩大代表性不足的少数民族在研究翻译的参与，该项目将有助于提高经济竞争力和社会福祉，同时保持在密歇根州立大学卓越的研究。预期成果，包括一个更加多样化和充满活力的学生，员工和研究人员谁的价值和追求直接有益于社会的翻译活动的社区，将通过创新和包容性的培训，支持和伙伴关系的综合组合来实现。设计思维计划将联合收割机与创业课程相结合，教授使用启发的方法，并共同制作文化和地理相关的翻译研究和解决方案。一套全面的支持将以种子转化研究项目（STRP）的形式推动高潜力，高影响力的研究翻译，并鼓励大学以更高的价格分拆公司。与艺术大使和华盛顿大学的地方和区域伙伴关系将促进校园内的研究促进冠军，促进思想和最佳实践的多机构交流，提供导师，并允许获得完善的创业和分拆服务。这些协同活动将根据区域情况和需求量身定制，并将优先考虑包容性和多样性，特别关注蒙大拿州的农村和部落社区。该项目部分由NSF的路易斯·斯托克斯少数民族参与联盟项目支持。该奖项反映了NSF的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的知识价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
