Project abstract We propose to establish a new national training program in response to the NIGMS initiative, “Innovative Program to Enhance Research Training” (IPERT), that is designed to increase the size of a highly skilled, successful, and diverse behavioral and biomedical workforce. Our intension is to accomplish this by instructing researchers at academic institutions, research institutes, scientific societies, and private industry in the best professional skills, including research ethics, and in the ways by those skills can be effectively transmit to trainees at their home institutions or professional societies. It is our believe that such instruction is necessary to maximize the success and scientific integrity of individuals engaged in behavioral and biomedical research. This is because, whereas most post-baccalaureate research training programs provide their trainees with a strong background in a scientific discipline and relevant laboratory skills, much more is needed to maximize the likelihood these individuals will advance in their careers and do so with a high level of integrity. As successful research scientists they will require a wide variety of additional skills, including the ability to develop a rigorous research program that generates reproducible data; fund that research through successful grant proposals; obtain and succeed in employment; communicate effectively through oral presentations, posters, research manuscripts, and informal networking; manage time, stress, and conflict; become effective lab managers, educators, and mentors; and exhibit social responsibility, including taking the time to effectively communicate with lay communities. In a great many cases the development of such skills will require explicit instruction. We believe that such instruction should be provided by individuals actively involved in research and should occur both within core academic courses and as part of workshops on these skills that include a discussion of their ethical dimensions, rather than via separate courses in research ethics. Our team is made up of a diverse group of individuals who – separately and collectively – have been involved for many years in instructing others in these skills both directly and through “train-the-trainer” workshops. We now propose to expand those previous efforts substantially by developing improved materials, including cases for discussion and other handouts, slide decks, and videos; addressing a much broader range of topics than in the past; increasing the relevance of our training programs for a diverse workforce that includes ethnic minorities and individuals with disabilities; delivering those materials via larger and more diverse workshops and websites; and producing a training manual. We will also help workshop participants develop ways to establish a climate of inclusion at their home institutions. The impact of our workshops, designed for a minimum of 50 trainers each year, will be carefully assessed by a professional evaluator who will collect and report data on the participants’ evaluation of our workshops; the impact the workshops have on participants’ subsequent instructional activities; and the effectiveness of the participants in imparting what they have learned to their trainees, who may include college students, graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, laboratory staff, faculty, and/or staff scientists.

项目摘要 我们建议建立一项新的国家培训计划，以回应诺格姆斯计划“创新计划” 为了增强研究培训”（IPERT），旨在增加技术熟练，成功和 潜水员行为和生物医学劳动力。我们的目的是通过指导研究人员 具有最佳专业技能的学术机构，研究机构，科学社会和私营企业， 包括研究伦理，并以这些技能的方式有效地传达给他们家的受训者 机构或专业社会。我们认为，这种指示是最大化成功的必要条件 以及从事行为和生物医学研究的个人的科学完整性。这是因为，而大多数 核后后的研究培训计划为受训者提供了科学方面的良好背景 纪律和相关的实验室技能，需要更多的东西来最大程度地提高这些人的可能性 促进他们的职业生涯，并以高度的诚信来做到这一点。作为成功的研究科学家，他们将需要 各种各样的其他技能，包括制定严格的研究计划的能力 可重复的数据；通过成功的赠款提案进行研究；获得并成功就业； 通过口头演示，海报，研究手稿和非正式网络进行有效沟通； 管理时间，压力和冲突；成为有效的实验室经理，教育工作者和精神；并暴露了社交 责任，包括花时间与外行社区有效沟通。在很多情况下 发展此类技能将需要明确的指导。我们认为应该提供这样的指示 积极参与研究的个人，应在核心学术课程中进行，也应该发生 有关这些技能的讲习班，包括讨论其道德维度，而不是通过单独的课程 研究伦理。我们的团队由一个分别和集体的潜水者组成 多年来参与了直接和通过“训练训练”的指导其他技能的指导 讲习班。现在，我们建议通过开发改进的材料来大大扩展这些以前的努力， 包括讨论和其他讲义，幻灯片甲板和视频的案例；解决更广泛的范围 主题比过去；提高我们的培训计划对包括种族在内的潜水员劳动力的相关性 少数民族和残疾人；通过更大，更多样化的研讨会交付这些材料， 网站；并制作培训手册。我们还将帮助研讨会参与者开发建立一个的方法 在其家庭机构中包容的气候。我们的研讨会的影响，设计至少50培训师 每年，将通过专业评估仔细评估，他们将收集和报告参与者的数据 评估我们的研讨会；研讨会对参与者随后的教学活动的影响；和 参与者在传授他们学到的东西向培训中学到的东西的有效性，他们可能包括大学 学生，研究生，博士后研究员，实验室工作人员，教职员工和/或员工科学家。
