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，大学教职员工、学者和学生将需要不同于他们的学术培训的技能和支持，而这些往往是大多数大学所缺乏的。克莱姆森大学在过去十年里见证了赞助研究的强劲、稳定的增长；然而，它的研究翻译速度一直保持在较低的水平。该项目名为通过意向发展和生态系统(STRIDE)促进研究翻译，将与克莱姆森大学的利益相关者广泛接触，以确定限制因素和实现大学研究翻译能力重大转变的途径，以符合该大学的土地赠款承诺。STRIDE的目标包括：启动路线图，以扩大大学在技术转移办公室、学院和创新中心的科研翻译支持基础设施；授权教职员工和学生从事科研翻译，并在整个机构创建科研翻译支持实体；为具有高影响力翻译潜力的翻译研究项目提供资金和其他支持。STRIDE将在所有大学开展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简化创新阶段的支持，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、包容性和可获得性的考虑将指导从接收参与者和创新项目到翻译结果的跨越式发展。STRIDE将与克莱姆森提升大学的战略举措紧密结合，以扩大其影响。STRIDE将显著提高将想法和知识转化为有形产品、服务、工具和方法的规模和速度，通过创建下一代劳动力和大学支持框架进行研究翻译，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优势和更广泛的影响审查标准进行评估，被认为值得支持。
