ARKANSAS CENTER FOR CLINICAL AND TRANSLATIONAL RESEARCH

本分项目是CTSA供资的估计百分比，即 被用于广泛的研究领域(艾滋病研究、儿科研究或 临床试验)。列出的总成本仅是对CTSA金额的估计 用于这一研究领域的基础设施，而不是由 授予子项目或子项目工作人员的NCRR补助金。 阿肯色医学大学(UAMS)正在开展一系列举措，旨在协同现有的临床和转化性研究项目，并改造机构研究工作。阿肯色州临床和翻译研究中心(CCTR)已经成立，它将所有UAMS学院及其研究生院联合起来，支持翻译研究工作。我们的总体目标是建立一个综合性的CCTR，改变UAMS翻译研究的速度、效率和质量，为所有阿肯色州人带来更好的健康。4个总体目标如下：具体目标1：在协作翻译科学方面教育下一代医生和科学家；具体目标2：与阿肯色州社区发展伙伴关系，以确保我们的研究满足他们的关切和需求，并使他们从我们的发现中受益；具体目标3：倡导研究和发现方面的创新与合作，为阿肯色州带来新技术；具体目标4：通过促进基础科学、临床、卫生服务和卫生政策研究人员之间的富有成效的互动，提供促进翻译研究的管理结构。这些目标由密集的组成部分项目(治理、监管支持、参与者和临床互动资源、信息学、设计/生物统计学、伦理学、教育、新方法/试点研究、翻译技术、社区参与)以及我们特别擅长的3个额外项目组成部分支持，这些项目组成部分将很好地服务于整个阿肯色州社区：卫生服务研究、行为研究和流行病学。阿肯色州有一个出色的远程医疗项目来支持我们基于社区的研究工作。UAMS正在组建一个新的信息学部门。因此，阿肯色州CCTR将为阿肯色州带来可观的附加值，并代表着一个推广到全国农村社区的研究示范项目。CCTR将通过科学家的互动网络，促进实验室工作台、患者床边和更广泛社区之间形成跨学科、多方面的界面。它还将促进未来卫生科学领域临床和翻译研究人员的培训，并在研究人员、社区临床医生、临床研究网络、专业协会、行业和政策制定者之间建立战略合作，以促进创新研究的发展，提高翻译研究的响应性和效率，并在患者护理的第一线催化将新知识和技术应用于临床实践。相关性(参见说明)：阿肯色州CCTR和CTSA接口将促进未来健康科学领域临床和转化型研究人员的培训，并在研究人员、社区临床医生、临床研究网络、专业协会、行业和政策制定者之间建立战略合作，以促进创新研究的发展，提高转化型研究的响应性和效率，并促进新知识和技术在患者护理一线的临床实践中的应用。

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 University of Arkansas for Medical Sciences (UAMS) is undertaking a series of initiatives aimed at synergizing existing clinical and translational research programs, and revamping the institutional research endeavor. The Arkansas Center for Clinical and Translational Research (CCTR) has been formed which unites all UAMS Colleges and its Graduate School behind the translational research endeavor. Our overarching goal is to establish an integrative CCTR that transforms the pace, effectiveness, and quality of translational research at UAMS, resulting in better health for all Arkansans. The 4 overall goals are as follows: Specific Aim 1: Educate the next generation of physicians and scientists in collaborative translational science; Specific Aim 2: Develop partnerships with Arkansas's communities to assure that our research addresses their concerns and needs, and that they benefit from our findings; Specific Aim 3: Champion nnovation and collaboration in research and discovery to bring new technologies to Arkansans; Specific Aim 4: Provide administrative structure that facilitates translational research through promoting productive interactions among basic science, clinical, health services, and health policy researchers. These goals are supported by intensive component programs (Governance, Regulatory Support, Participant and Clinical Interaction Resources, Informatics, Design/Biostatistics, Ethics, Education, Novel methodologies/Pilot studies, Translational Technologies, Community Engagement) plus 3 additional program components in which we are particularly strong, and which will serve well the greater Arkansas community: These are Health Services Research, Behavioral Research, and Epidemiology. Arkansas has an outstanding telemedicine program to support our community-based research efforts. UAMS is developing a new Division of Informatics. Thus, the Arkansas CCTR will bring considerable added value to Arkansas, and represent a model program for research that extends nationally to rural communities. The CCTR will foster the formation of a cross-disciplinary, multi-faceted interface among the laboratory bench, patient bedside, and wider community through an interactive network of scientists. It will also facilitate training of future clinical and translational investigators across the health sciences and forge strategic collaborations among researchers, community clinicians, clinical research networks, professional societies, industry, and policy makers to facilitate the development of innovative research, increase the responsiveness and efficiency of translational research, and catalyze the application of new knowledge and techniques to clinical practice at the front lines of patient care. RELEVANCE (See instructions): The Arkansas CCTR along with this CTSA interface will facilitate training of future clinical and translational investigators across the health sciences and forge strategic collaborations among researchers, community clinicians, clinical research networks, professional societies, industry, and policy makers to facilitate development of innovative research, increase the responsiveness and efficiency of translational research, and catalyze the application of new knowledge and techniques to clinical practice at the front lines of patient care.
