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. The announcement in 2005 of the CTSA program generated great excitement among the faculty and leadership of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill (UNC-CH). The state had just made an annual commitment of $3.5M to UNC-CH to support clinical and translational research, so we felt ideally positioned to create the required institutional home. We solicited input from over 300 faculty, administrators and other stakeholders drawn not just from UNC-CH but from across the state. Based on their advice, we established the Translational and Clinical Sciences (TraCS) Institute and crafted three simple goals: Prepare and empower our faculty, health care providers, and citizens, assembling them into inter- disciplinary teams that will actively engage in all aspects of clinical and translational research, Design and execute translational and clinical research projects of the very highest quality, and Translate findings for better health, rapidly disseminating and implementing proven advances to solve important health problems at the state, national, and global levels. To meet these goals, the Translational Research Advisory Board, consisting of senior faculty from across the UNC System, will partner with communities to identify and prioritize important health issues and will call for pilot project proposals that address these priorities. The TraCS Study Section, that includes community members, will prioritize and provide written critiques of pilot project proposals for >$30M contributed by over 40 units across campus and the state. Best practices will be implemented in the communities to improve the health of citizens. The cycle continues as communities feedback to the TraCS Institute. Innovation Champions will help form research teams and guide them to the many new cores and consultative services designed to support at every step along the bench-to-practice continuum. Enthusiasm for the TraCS Institute extends across the UNC-CH campus, to our sister campuses in the UNC System, and to the highest levels of state government. Novel community-based mechanisms will also ensure a full partnership with the citizens of our state. Indeed, we have already established the first of four community research units. Our substantial institutional commitments combined with the funds requested in this application will allow the TraCS Institute to fulfill its goals as a full partner in the CTSA network.

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。 2005 年 CTSA 计划的宣布引起了北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校 (UNC-CH) 教师和领导层的极大兴奋。该州刚刚向 UNC-CH 每年承诺提供 350 万美元，用于支持临床和转化研究，因此我们感觉处于创建所需机构之家的理想位置。我们征求了 300 多名教职员工、管理人员和其他利益相关者的意见，这些利益相关者不仅来自 UNC-CH，还来自全州各地。根据他们的建议，我们建立了转化和临床科学研究所 (TraCS)，并制定了三个简单的目标：为我们的教职员工、医疗保健提供者和公民做好准备并赋予他们权力，将他们组建成跨学科团队，积极参与临床和转化研究的各个方面；设计和执行最高质量的转化和临床研究项目；将研究结果转化为更好的健康，快速传播和实施经过验证的进步 解决州、国家和全球层面的重要健康问题。为了实现这些目标，由北卡罗来纳大学系统的高级教员组成的转化研究咨询委员会将与社区合作，确定重要的健康问题并确定其优先顺序，并呼吁提出解决这些优先事项的试点项目提案。 TraCS 研究部分包括社区成员，将对试点项目提案进行优先排序并提供书面评论，该项目提案由校园和全州 40 多个单位捐赠超过 3000 万美元。将在社区实施最佳实践，以改善公民的健康。随着社区向 TraCS 研究所反馈，这个循环仍在继续。创新冠军将帮助组建研究团队，并指导他们采用许多新的核心和咨询服务，旨在为从实验到实践的连续过程中的每一步提供支持。对 TraCS 研究所的热情遍及整个 UNC-CH 校园、北卡罗来纳大学系统的姐妹校区以及州政府最高层。基于社区的新颖机制还将确保与本州公民的充分合作。事实上，我们已经建立了四个社区研究单位中的第一个。我们的实质性机构承诺加上本申请中要求的资金将使 TraCS 研究所能够实现其作为 CTSA 网络的正式合作伙伴的目标。
