AR CAREER DEVELOPMENT COBRE: ADMINISTRATIVE CORE

这个子项目是许多利用 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。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 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 我们建议实施职业发展计划，领导力计划，具有显著协同作用的多学科团队项目计划，类似的绩效里程碑，并将继续我们的招聘计划，并扩大我们的核心设施。A.职业发展计划：这一办法是通过有结构和问责制的正式促进，而不是自然或情景辅导。我们将继续实施我们认为成功的现行职业发展计划的所有五个要素，并将增加两个我们认为将改善该计划的方面。 新的目标包括：新的具体目标1：自我评估。我们将测试一种指导自我评估工具，以期确定和采用最佳指导做法。 该自我评估工具包含在附录4中，由匹兹堡大学开发。 我们将每六个月进行一次自我评估，以跟踪进展情况。新的具体目标2：指导合作研究。我们的合作研究指导会议将强调，一方面，如何建立富有成效的合作（讨论通常的合作类型，合作情况的样本，协议的类型，NIH和其他机构关于合作研究的规定），另一方面，如何设计富有成效的合作（讨论多学科研究的设计，最大限度地减少合作研究的障碍，确定潜在的成功或不受欢迎的合作）。具体目标3：建立导师计划：我们成功地将已建立的导师与研究背景和专业知识相匹配，以适合各自的学员。具体目标4：外部演讲者计划：每年有四到六位全国知名的演讲者，每个项目的研究领域的专家（和潜在的顾问或评审员）将被项目调查人员邀请。具体目标五：生物统计学和实验设计：该计划将帮助项目研究人员在拟议研究和未来应用中进行实验设计。 它将提供个性化的指导和咨询，以便调查人员尽可能多地接触这些信息。具体目标6：补助金撰写和审查：CTN将通过UAMS的赠款和科学出版物办公室支持赠款写作的费用，以优化风格和组织。在我们的职业发展计划中隐含的是我们的导师计划，除了上面在目标3下讨论的问题外，还包括选择兼容的导师和被指导者，以促进教师水平的学术发展。 此外，CTN将制定一个领导力计划，这将是一个为期一年的过程，旨在超越该计划，特别是考虑到转化神经科学的未来。 它的主要目标是提供工具和资源，以培养创造性的领导者，他们将指导和改变21世纪的转化研究和高等教育的学术服务。

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. We propose to implement a Career Development Program, a Leadership Program, a multidisciplinary team Project Program with significant synergy, similar Performance Milestones, and will continue our Recruitment Program, and expand our Core Facilities. A. Career Development Program: The approach has been through formal facilitation with structure and accountability rather than natural or situational mentoring. We will continue all five elements of the current Career Development Program that we have found to succeed, and will add two aspects that we believe will improve the program. The new aims include: New Specific Aim 1: Self-assessment. We will test a tool for Mentoring Self-Assessment, with the view towards identifying and adopting the best mentoring practices. This self-assessment tool is included in Appendix #4 and was developed by the University of Pittsburgh. We will perform the self-assessment every six months to track progress. New Specific Aim 2: Mentoring for collaborative research. Our collaborative research mentoring sessions will emphasize, on the one hand, how to establish fruitful collaborations (discuss the usual types of collaborations, samples of collaborative situations, types of agreements, NIH and other agency regulations regarding collaborative research), and, on the other hand, how to design fruitful collaborations (discuss the design of multi-disciplinary research, minimizing barriers to collaborative research, identifying potentially successful or undesirable collaborations). Specific Aim 3: Established Mentor Program: We have had great success in matching established Mentors with research background and expertise appropriate to their respective Mentees. Specific Aim 4: External Speaker Program: Four to six nationally prominent speakers per year, each an expert (and potential advisor or reviewer) in the area of research of each Individual Project will be invited by the Project investigators. Specific Aim 5: Biostatistics and Experimental Design: This program will help the Project investigators with experimental design in the proposed studies and in future applications. It will provide individualized instruction and advice in order to optimize access by the investigators. Specific Aim 6: Grant writing and reviews: The CTN will support the costs of grant writing through the Office of Grants and Scientific Publications at UAMS in order to optimize style and organization. Implicit in our Career Development Plan is our Mentoring Plan, which, in addition to those issues discussed above under Aim 3, involves the choice of compatible Mentors and Mentees to facilitate academic development at the faculty level. In addition, the CTN will institute a Leadership Program that will be a yearlong process designed to go beyond that program specifically with the future of translational neuroscience in mind. Its primary goal is to provide the tools and resources to develop creative leaders who will guide and transform academic services for translational research and higher education in the twenty-first century.
