BIOMEDICAL RES FACULTY RECRUITMENT & DEVELOPMENT

本子项目是利用由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的众多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能已经从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。列出的机构是中心的，不一定是研究者的机构。德克萨斯南方大学需要额外的教师来加强现有的研究环境，并刺激持续和有竞争力的研究。该项目的目的是通过招募新成立的教师来支持新兴的生物医学和制药科学硕士和博士学位课程，从而建立在之前生物医学研究教师招聘（BRFR）活动的成功基础上。这项活动的目的是通过增加生物医学研究人员的数量和质量来改善研究基础设施，研究对弱势群体造成不成比例影响的健康问题。BRFR&D与该机构对提高研究活动水平和从事生物医学和行为研究的教职员工数量的新兴趣和承诺是一致的。BRFR&D阶段的目标是：(1)聘请两名新的生物医学和/或制药科学博士教师，以加强和扩大托国立的研究重点；(2)加强与健康差距有关的选定疾病的生物医学和药学研究能力；(3)增加生物医学和行为研究教员的数量和质量，这些教员进行基础和临床研究，特别强调影响少数民族人口的健康问题；(4)为日益复杂的研究基础设施创造更多活跃和可行的用户；(5)提高我们的研究人员提交的提案、在科学会议上的演讲和在同行评议期刊上发表的文章的数量和质量；(6)丰富托大的研究环境和基础设施；(7)建立师徒关系，由高级教师担任初级教师的导师。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. Texas Southern University requires additional faculty to strengthen the existing research environment and to stimulate sustained and competitive research. The purpose of this project is to build on the success of the previous Biomedical Research Faculty Recruitment (BRFR) activity by recruiting new established faculty to support an emerging MS and PhD degree program in biomedical and pharmaceutical sciences. This activity is designed to improve the research infrastructure by increasing the number and quality of biomedical research faculty investigating health issues that disproportionately affect disadvantaged populations. The BRFR&D is consistent with the institution's renewed interest and commitment to increasing both the level of research activity and the number of faculty members engaged in biomedical and behavioral research. The objectives of the BRFR&D period are to: (1) hire two new established PhD faculty members in the biomedical and/or pharmaceutical sciences who will reinforce and broaden the research foci at TSU; (2) strengthen the biomedical and pharmaceutical sciences research capabilities in selected diseases associated with health disparities; (3) increase the number and quality of biomedical and behavioral research faculty members who are conducting basic and clinical research with special emphasis on health issues disproportionately affecting minority populations; (4) create more active and viable users for the increasingly sophisticated research infrastructure; (5) increase the number and quality of proposal submissions, presentations at scientific meetings, and publications in peer-reviewed journals by our research faculty; (6) enrich the research environment and infrastructure at TSU; and (7) establish a mentoring program whereby senior faculty will serve as mentors for junior level faculty members.
