This subproject represents an estimate of the percentage of the CTSA funding that is being utilized for a broad area of research (AIDS research, pediatric research, or clinical trials). The Total Cost listed is only an estimate of the amount of CTSA infrastructure going towards this area of research, not direct funding provided by the NCRR grant to the subproject or subproject staff. Leveraging Tufts University's excellent resources, traditions of multidisciplinary collaboration, generation of novel research methods, and academic innovation, including the first MS/PhD Clinical Research (CR) Program in a graduate school of biomedical sciences, we will establish the Tufts Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI). This will unite eight Tufts Schools (Arts & Sciences, Citizenship and Public Service, Dental Medicine, Engineering, Graduate Biomedical Sciences, Medicine, Nutrition, and Veterinary Medicine), eight affiliated hospitals, the Tufts Center for the Study of Drug Development, the USDA Human Nutrition Research Center on Aging at Tufts, and the Tufts-New England Medical Center (Tufts-NEMC) Institute for Clinical Research and Health Policy Studies. This will: 1) Create a new home for clinical and translational clinical research (CTR), a cross-University, cross-affiliate Tufts CTSI, headed by an international leader in CTR who will report to the University Provost; 2) Create eight research resource Components suggested by the CTSA RFA, plus four based on special Tufts strengths; 3) Enhance and expand the "CR Portal" at Tufts- NEMC into a Tufts-wide "CTSI Portal" that provides coordinated and mentored University- and affiliate-wide access to CTSI Components and other resources; 4) Create activities, processes, and new information systems that will support and promote collaborative cross-disciplinary full-spectrum translational research; and 5) Enhance our MS/PhD CR Program by a) adding to the existing four Concentrations (Clinical Investigation, Epidemiology/Biostatistics, Health Services and Outcomes Research, and Medical Informatics), Concentrations in Bench-to-Bedside Translational Research and in Evidence-Based Medicine; b) developing distance learning to extend the Program to fellows, K12 scholars, and other faculty at Tufts affiliates across Massachusetts; c) creating the joint Pfizer Tufts Career Development Awards; d) preparing predoctoral tracks for Tufts MD, DMD, and DVM students to also get a CR MS or PhD; e) developing joint tracks for students to get an MS in Nutrition or in Biomedical Engineering with a PhD in CR; and f) developing a program to generate interest in CTR among students from underrepresented minority groups. In all aspects of training, research support, and organizational development, the Tufts CTSI will support and instill the culture of cooperative interdisciplinary research, a home without walls, for CTR Tufts-wide.

该子项目代表了 CTSA 资金百分比的估计 被用于广泛的研究领域（艾滋病研究、儿科研究或 临床试验）。 列出的总成本只是 CTSA 金额的估计值 该研究领域的基础设施，而不是直接资助 NCRR 向子项目或子项目人员提供的补助金。 凭借塔夫茨大学的优良资源、多学科合作的传统、新颖研究方法的产生和学术创新，包括生物医学研究生院第一个硕士/博士临床研究（CR）项目，我们将建立塔夫茨临床与转化科学研究所（CTSI）。这将联合八所塔夫茨学院（艺术与科学学院、公民与公共服务学院、牙科医学学院、工程学院、生物医学研究生院、医学学院、营养学院和兽医学院）、八家附属医院、塔夫茨药物开发研究中心、塔夫茨美国农业部人类营养老龄化研究中心以及塔夫茨-新英格兰医学中心（Tufts-NEMC）临床研究和临床研究所。 卫生政策研究。这将： 1) 为临床和转化临床研究 (CTR) 创建一个新家，一个跨大学、跨附属机构的塔夫茨 CTSI，由 CTR 领域的国际领导者领导，并向大学教务长汇报； 2) 创建 CTSA RFA 建议的八个研究资源组件，加上基于塔夫茨大学特殊优势的四个； 3) 增强和扩展塔夫茨-NEMC 的“CR 门户”，成为塔夫茨范围内的“CTSI 门户”，提供协调和指导的大学和附属机构范围内对 CTSI 组件和其他资源的访问； 4）创建支持和促进协作性跨学科全谱转化研究的活动、流程和新信息系统； 5) 加强我们的 MS/PhD CR 项目，方法是：a) 在现有的四个专业（临床调查、流行病学/生物统计学、卫生服务和结果研究以及医学信息学）的基础上增加实验室到临床转化研究和循证医学专业； b) 发展远程学习，将该计划扩展到马萨诸塞州塔夫茨附属机构的研究员、K12 学者和其他教员； c) 设立联合辉瑞塔夫茨职业发展奖； d) 为塔夫茨大学 MD、DMD 和 DVM 学生准备博士前课程，以获得 CR MS 或博士学位； e) 为学生制定联合途径，以获得营养学或生物医学工程硕士学位以及 CR 博士学位； f) 制定一项计划，以激发来自代表性不足的少数群体的学生对 CTR 的兴趣。在培训、研究支持和组织发展的各个方面，塔夫茨 CTSI 将支持和灌输跨学科合作研究的文化，为整个 CTR 塔夫茨建立一个没有围墙的家。
