UW-Madison CTSA Planning Grant

描述（由申请人提供）：与NIH路线图一致，威斯康星大学麦迪逊分校（UW）致力于加速将科学发现转化为改善人类健康。我们的总体战略是将新资源的催化投资与现有资源的整合、协同和放大相结合。CTSA计划拨款将用于创建一个临床研究所（ICTR）。作为协调临床和转化研究工作的总伞，卢旺达问题国际法庭将处理三个主要领域：1)如何为参与临床和转化研究任何方面的尽可能多的研究人员提供和利用一系列研究资源；2)如何最好地整合和调整职业发展支持与多个切入点，以满足各种不同学习者的需求；3)如何在直接护理环境中最有效地传播研究进展，在整个威斯康星州和全国范围内，以改善临床实践的方式。当我们在规划补助金期间发展卢旺达问题国际法庭时，我们建议实现以下具体目标：

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Congruent with the NIH Roadmap, the University of Wisconsin-Madison (UW) is committed to accelerating the translation of scientific discovery into improved human health. Our overall strategy will be to couple catalytic investment of new resources with the integration, synergy and amplification of existing resources. The CTSA planning grant will be used to create an Institute for Clinical Research (ICTR). As the umbrella for coordinating clinical and translational research efforts, the ICTR will address three major areas: 1) how to make an array of research resources available and accessible to the largest possible number of investigators involved in any aspect of clinical and translational research; 2) how to best integrate and tailor career development support with multiple points of entry to address the needs of a variety of different learners; and3) how to most effectively disseminate research advances within the immediate care environment, throughout Wisconsin and nationally in a way that improves clinical practice. As we develop the ICTR during the Planning Grant we propose to accomplish the following specific aims: Specific Aim 1: Identify ways to best organize and coordinate existing and new research support infrastructure for optimal efficiency and accessibility to clinical and translational researchers and trainees. Specific Aim 2: Outline the processes and procedures necessary to build on and coordinate existing career development programs in clinical and translational research and develop new curricula to meet the needs of the largest number of learners. Specific Aim 3: Develop an infrastructure that will make possible coordination of existing and developing academic-community partnerships throughout Wisconsin to facilitate dissemination of research into practice, stimulate community-based participatory research, and increase opportunities for citizens throughout the state to participate in clinical research. Work groups and design teams with members appropriate to the respective Specific Aims will address individual components essential to the creation of an effective ICTR and submit reports to the CTSA Planning Grant leaders who will evaluate and integrate appropriate elements from the documents into the overall CTSA application due March, 2007.
