PROJECT SUMMARY The dramatic growth of the older adult population in the United States dictates the need to develop and train a biomedical research workforce to address the challenges of population aging. Because population growth among older adults is greatest for racial and ethnic minorities, it is particularly critical to develop scientists with expertise investigating racial and ethnic disparities among older adults. Therefore, the Research Education Component (REC) of the University of Florida (UF) RCMAR aims to establish an innovative research training and mentoring program designed for early career investigators from underrepresented backgrounds who are conducting research addressing our thematic focus of biopsychosocial drivers of pain and disability among older adults. The REC will enact a multimodal recruitment strategy to attract promising investigators from underrepresented backgrounds. Training will emphasize competency-based development of skills for conducting high-impact social and behavioral research addressing biopsychosocial contributions to pain and disability among older adults. The REC will be led by Co-Leaders with extensive experience in training and mentoring early career investigators and will be supported by an outstanding interdisciplinary pool of mentors who are committed to supporting the career development of RCMAR Scientists. To accomplish its goals, the REC will work closely with the other RCMAR Cores and with other UF programs that provide career development support, including the Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI), the UF Older Adults Independence Center (OAIC) Junior Scholars Program, and the Integrative and Multidisciplinary Pain and Aging Research Training (IMPART) Program. Through these efforts, the REC will achieve its overall objective of supporting the advancement of RCMAR Scientists toward becoming independent scientists and future leaders as pain and aging researchers. In order to promote the career development of RCMAR Scientists, the REC will ensure that each RCMAR Scientist is supported by a committed multidisciplinary mentoring team. All RCMAR Scientists will work with their mentoring team to develop an individual development plan (IDP) tailored to their training needs and career goals and objectives. Further, the REC will provide didactic and experiential training tailored to each RCMAR Scientist to facilitate their career development and successful transition to independence and leadership. The REC will also implement a Pilot Studies Program to support RCMAR Scientists' research addressing biopsychosocial contributions to pain and disability among older adults. Finally, the REC will monitor and evaluate the outcomes of its research and career development activities, which will include tracking RCMAR Scientists' publications and future grant awards, as well as evaluating both processes and outcomes of mentoring and career development activities supported by the REC. Successful implementation of the REC will ultimately improve the health of older adults by enhancing the diversity of the aging research workforce and generating important new knowledge regarding the biopsychosocial drivers of and interventions for later life pain and disability.

项目摘要 美国老年人口的急剧增长决定了发展和培训老年人的必要性。 生物医学研究队伍，以应对人口老龄化的挑战。因为人口增长 老年人是最大的种族和少数民族，这是特别重要的是培养科学家的专业知识， 调查老年人中的种族和民族差异。因此，研究教育的组成部分 (REC)的佛罗里达大学（UF）RCMAR旨在建立一个创新的研究培训和指导 该计划专为来自代表性不足背景的早期职业调查人员设计，他们正在进行 研究解决我们的主题重点的生物心理社会驱动因素的疼痛和残疾的老年人。的 REC将制定一项多模式招聘战略，从代表性不足的国家吸引有前途的调查人员。 背景培训将强调以能力为基础的技能发展， 以及行为研究，探讨生物心理社会对老年人疼痛和残疾的影响。的 REC将由在培训和指导早期职业调查员方面具有丰富经验的联合领导人领导 并将得到杰出的跨学科导师的支持，他们致力于支持 RCMAR科学家的职业发展。为了实现其目标，区域经济委员会将与其他国家密切合作， RCMAR核心和其他UF计划，提供职业发展支持，包括临床和 翻译科学研究所（CTSI），UF老年人独立中心（OAIC）少年学者 综合和多学科疼痛和衰老研究培训（IMPART）计划。 通过这些努力，区域环境委员会将实现其支持推进RCMAR的总体目标 科学家们朝着成为独立的科学家和未来的领导者作为疼痛和衰老研究人员。为了 为了促进RCMAR科学家的职业发展，REC将确保每位RCMAR科学家 由一个致力于多学科的指导团队提供支持。所有RCMAR科学家将与他们的指导工作 团队制定适合其培训需求和职业目标的个人发展计划（IDP）， 目标.此外，REC将为每位RCMAR科学家提供量身定制的教学和体验式培训， 促进他们的职业发展和成功过渡到独立和领导地位。REC还将 实施试点研究计划，以支持RCMAR科学家解决生物心理社会问题的研究 对老年人疼痛和残疾的影响。最后，区域环境委员会将监测和评估结果， 其研究和职业发展活动，其中包括跟踪RCMAR科学家的出版物， 未来的赠款，以及评估辅导和职业发展的过程和成果 REC的成功实施将最终改善老年人的健康， 通过提高老龄化研究队伍的多样性和产生重要的新知识， 关于晚年疼痛和残疾的生物心理社会驱动因素和干预措施。
