A Workshop to Enhance America's Research Translation for Prosperity and Social Impact

该项目资助了一个研讨会，以探索在广泛的高等教育机构中加速和提高转化研究能力的策略。少数大学表现良好，拥有完善有效的技术转移办公室，为研究翻译提供强有力的激励，聘用教师，并提供慷慨的创业支持服务。许多具有高潜力的机构目前表现不佳。这些机构中有许多是为少数民族服务的，位于地理上偏远或稀疏的创业生态系统中。这些机构往往资源不足，缺乏对转化活动的内部支持，并且没有激励措施来促进技术转让或为其教员创造价值。本次研讨会的目的是讨论提高研究成果转化的策略，并增加对选民和社区的利益。要充分发挥研究型翻译的潜力，就需要提高高等教育机构的绩效和参与度。NSF的新技术创新伙伴关系（TIP）部门和加速研究转化（ART）计划提供了一个机会，以响应跨地区、部门和个人的更可持续和包容性增长的社会需求。该奖项反映了美国国家科学基金会的法定使命，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。

This project funds a workshop to explore strategies for accelerating and increasing the capacity for translational research within a wide range of higher education institutions. A few universities are performing well, with well-established and effective tech transfer offices, offering strong incentives for research translation, engaged faculty, and munificent entrepreneurial support services. Many institutions with high potential currently underperform. Many of these institutions are minority-serving, located in geographically remote or sparse entrepreneurial ecosystems. These institutions are often under-resourced, lacking internal support for translational activities, and without incentives to promote technology transfer or value creation to their faculty. The objective of this workshop is to discuss strategies to increase the translation of research outputs and increase the benefits to constituents and communities. Realizing the full potential of research translation requires enhancing the performance and participation of a broad range institutions of higher education. NSF’s new Technology Innovation Partnerships (TIP) division and the Accelerating Research Translation (ART) program offer an opportunity to respond to the societal needs for more sustainable and inclusive growth across regions, sectors, and individuals.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.
