Discoveries and innovations from universities’ foundational research in science and engineering have been the cornerstone for advancements in the nation’s health, prosperity, and welfare. To translate such innovations into economic and societal benefits, university faculty, scholar, and students will need skillsets different from their academic training and supports often scarce in most universities. Clemson University has seen strong, steady growth in sponsored research in the past decade; its pace of research translation, however, has remained at a lower level. This project, titled Stimulating Translation of Research via Intentional Development and Ecosystem (STRIDE), will broadly engage Clemson University stakeholders to identify the limiting factors and a path toward significant transformation in the university’s research translation capacity, in line with the university’s land grant commitment. STRIDE’s goals include: bootstrapping a roadmap to grow the university’s research translation support infrastructure in the technology transfer office, colleges, and innovation center; empower faculty and students to pursue research translation and create research translation support entities across the institution; provide financial and other support to seed translational research projects with high potential for impactful translation. STRIDE will develop training programs and engagement activities across all colleges to support its education, research, economic, and societal missions. STRIDE will also bring the region’s innovation ecosystem closer than ever through joint program developments and streamlined support through stages of innovation. Diversity, equity, inclusion, and accessibility considerations will guide STRIDE from intake of participants and innovation projects to translation outcomes. STRIDE will be closely aligned with the Clemson Elevate university strategic initiatives to multiply its impacts. STRIDE will significantly enhance the scale and pace of translation of ideas and knowledge into tangible products, services, tools, and methods that will ultimately create lasting economic and/or societal impacts through creation of the next generation workforce and university support framework for research translation.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.

大学在科学和工程方面的基础研究的发现和创新一直是国家健康、繁荣和福利进步的基石。 为了将这些创新转化为经济和社会效益，大学教师、学者和学生将需要不同于他们的学术培训的技能，并且在大多数大学中往往缺乏支持。过去十年中，克莱姆森大学的资助研究取得了强劲、稳定的增长；然而，其研究成果转化速度仍处于较低水平。该项目名为“通过有意发展和生态系统促进研究成果转化”（STRIDE），将广泛吸引克莱姆森大学利益相关者参与，以确定限制因素以及实现大学研究成果转化能力重大转变的路径，以符合大学的土地拨款承诺。 STRIDE 的目标包括： 制定路线图，发展大学在技术转让办公室、学院和创新中心的研究翻译支持基础设施；授权教师和学生进行研究翻译并在整个机构内创建研究翻译支持实体；为具有高影响力翻译潜力的种子转化研究项目提供财政和其他支持。 STRIDE 将在所有学院制定培训计划和参与活动，以支持其教育、研究、经济和社会使命。 STRIDE 还将通过联合项目开发和创新阶段的简化支持，使该地区的创新生态系统比以往任何时候都更加紧密。多样性、公平性、包容性和可及性方面的考虑将引导 STRIDE 从参与者的吸收和创新项目到转化成果。 STRIDE 将与 Clemson Elevate 大学战略举措紧密结合，以扩大其影响力。 STRIDE 将显着提高将思想和知识转化为有形产品、服务、工具和方法的规模和速度，通过创建下一代研究翻译劳动力和大学支持框架，最终产生持久的经济和/或社会影响。该奖项反映了 NSF 的法定使命，并通过使用基金会的智力价值和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
