PLANNING INTERDISCIPLINARY STUDY: DIABETIC HEART: COMPREHENSION PROPOSAL FOR IRC

该子项目是利用NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源的许多研究子项目之一。子项目和研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金，因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为中心，不一定是研究者所在机构。本文描述的计划过程的最终目标是在华盛顿大学建立一个跨学科研究中心（IRC），该中心专注于糖尿病心血管疾病的问题。上述计划将开始作为一个开放式的探索跨学科研究的概念和我们的优势和劣势的划定。随着这一进程的发展，我们将制定以目标为导向的方法，包括建立工作规划小组和进行试点研究。为了建立研究中心，必须确定短期和长期目标，并制定精确的跨学科研究战略。还必须为这项巨大的努力提供长期资金。因此，我们计划在拨款期的最后六个月内，为独立评审委员会制订全面的建议。据推测，这样的提议将与NIH在下一个十年启动路线图倡议的计划一致。最后提案将是规划进程参与者努力的结晶，包括试点项目产生的初步数据。规划补助金的PI将监督最终提案的制定和编写。该提案将由理事会和外部咨询小组进行严格审查

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. The ultimate goal of the planning process described herein is to develop an Interdisciplinary Research Center (IRC) at Washington University focused on the problem of diabetic cardiovascular disease. The plan described above will begin as an open-ended exploration of the concept of interdisciplinary research and delineation of our strengths and weakness. As the process evolves, we will develop goal-oriented approaches including establishing working planning groups and conducting pilot research. In order to establish an IRC, it will be necessary to define short-and long-range goals and to map out precise interdisciplinary research strategies. It will also be necessary secure long-term funding for this enormous effort. Accordingly, we plan to develop a comprehensive proposal for an IRC during the last six months of the funding period. It is assumed that'''' such a proposal would be consistent with the plans of the NIH to launch the Roadmap initiative into the next decade. The final proposal will represent the culmination of the efforts of the participants of the planning process including preliminary data generated by the pilot projects. The PI of the planning grant will oversee the development and writing of the final proposal. The proposal will be critically reviewed by the Council and External Advisory Panel
