Professional Development Core

专业发展核心项目摘要 专业发展是加强生物医学研究活动的重要组成部分。 大平原IDEA临床和转化研究(GP IDEA-CTR)网络。专业人士 发展核心(PDC)将作为全科医生IDEA-CTR中所有专业发展活动的枢纽， 利用合作伙伴网站的不同师资力量。作为枢纽，所有的专业发展 活动将通过此核心进行路由，其他核心和协作者充当将提供 PDC协助开展的专门培训活动。教育项目将继续解决CTR问题 科学交流、团队科学、翻译团队合作、领导力和 进行跨学科的培训，以增强我们的调查人员的竞争力。基于团队的指导将是 PDC的一个重点领域，目标是支持全科医生的想法-CTR努力招募和 有效地培训科学家团队合作，开发创新的、最先进的临床和翻译 科学。我们将继续在我们所提供的机构中发展我们的CTR导师网络 有组织的导师培训和实践机会，以接受/提供指导，并开发了一种工具 将有抱负的CTR学员与合适的导师联系起来的原型。PDC的具体目标是1) 在全科医生理念-CTR中促进有效的专业发展活动和教育CTR产品 为从事CTR的人员建立网络，以提高研究能力、工作效率和影响力；2)提供 为CTR研究人员在所有职业阶段提供有组织的指导和指导培训，重点是我们的 创新的基于团队的指导模式；以及3)扩大正式计划，以支持发展和 留住准备作为CTR调查人员竞争外部资金的职业早期教师。这个 PDC提供的培训资源和基础设施是内布拉斯加州和周边地区独有的 并将为整个地区的CTR能力提供所需的支持。

Professional Development Core Project Summary Professional development is a critical component of efforts to enhance biomedical research activities across the Great Plains IDeA Clinical and Translational Research (GP IDeA-CTR) Network. The Professional Development Core (PDC) will act as the hub of all professional development activities in the GP IDeA-CTR, leveraging the diverse strengths of faculty across partner sites. As the hub, all professional development activities will be routed through this Core, with other Cores and collaborators acting as spokes that will offer specialized training activities facilitated by the PDC. Educational offerings will continue to address the CTR core competency areas of scientific communication, team science, translational teamwork, leadership, and cross-disciplinary training to enhance the competitiveness of our investigators. Team-based mentoring will be an area of emphasis for the PDC with the goal of supporting the GP IDeA-CTR’s efforts to recruit and effectively train scientists to work in teams to develop innovative, state-of-the-art clinical and translational science. We will continue to develop our network of CTR mentors across institutions where we have provided structured mentor training and hands-on opportunities to receive/provide mentoring and have developed a tool prototype that will connect aspiring CTR trainees to suitable mentors. The PDC specific aims are to 1) Facilitate effective professional development activities and educational CTR offerings across the GP IDeA-CTR Network to those engaged in CTR to enhance research competency, productivity, and impact; 2) Provide structured mentoring and mentor training for CTR researchers at all career stages with a focus on our innovative team-based mentorship model; and 3) Expand formal programs to support the development and retention of early-career faculty who are preparing to compete for external funding as CTR investigators. The training resources and infrastructure provided by the PDC are unique to Nebraska and the surrounding Great Plains region and will provide the needed support for CTR capacity across our region.
