We propose to continue the pilot project program that was initially established in phase 11 of our COBRE grant. The aims ofthe pilot project program in Phase III are to initiate new projects and new collaborations in the area of biomaterials (Aim 1), to establish a mentoring program to train our junior faculty and expand the cadre of COBRE investigators (Aim 2), and to serve as a framework for planning and preparation of program project grants (Aim 3). In Aim 1, the pilot project applications will be solicited from the broader University scientific community, including COBRE investigators. The research covered may include any topic consistent with the overall focus of Biomaterials COBRE, including design and synthesis, development of novel characterization methods, and translational research in biomaterials. Pilot projects are generally awarded for 1-2 years ($40,000-$50,000 direct costs per year). A typical pilot project grant will support stipends for research assistants, supplies and expenses. A two-stage review process will be implemented for project selection. External mail reviewers are selected by the Internal Steering Committee. The funding decisions are made by the External Advisory Committee, on the basis of the priority scores given by the external mail reviewers. In Aim.2, the pilot project program will remain a mechanism for mentoring, development, and support of our junior faculty. All pilot project junior faculty Pis are required to have one scientific mentor and to participate in the career development and grant writing workshops that will be hosted under the COBRE auspices. In Aim 3, we will establish a framework for multi-investigator grants. Ideas for interdisciplinary large-scale applications will be developed at our annual research retreats and at joint workshops and symposia with other NIH-funded centers in Delaware (INBRE, other COBRE, and CTR).

我们建议继续实施最初在 COBRE 第 11 阶段建立的试点项目计划 授予。第三阶段试点项目计划的目标是在以下领域启动新项目和新合作 生物材料领域（目标 1），建立一个指导计划来培训我们的初级教师并扩大 COBRE 调查员骨干（目标 2），并作为计划和准备的框架 项目补助金（目标 3）。在目标 1 中，将向更广泛的大学征集试点项目申请 科学界，包括 COBRE 研究人员。所涵盖的研究可能包括任何主题 与生物材料 COBRE 的整体重点一致，包括设计和合成、开发 新颖的表征方法以及生物材料的转化研究。试点项目一般是 授予 1-2 年（每年直接费用 40,000-50,000 美元）。典型的试点项目赠款将支持 研究助理、用品和费用的津贴。将实施两阶段审查程序 用于项目选择。外部邮件审阅者由内部指导委员会选出。资助情况 决定由外部咨询委员会根据外部咨询委员会给出的优先级分数做出 外部邮件审阅者。在目标 2 中，试点项目计划仍将是一种指导机制， 我们的初级教师的发展和支持。所有试点项目初级教员 Pi 都必须拥有一名 科学导师并参加将举办的职业发展和资助写作研讨会 在 COBRE 的支持下。在目标 3 中，我们将建立一个多研究者资助框架。想法 跨学科的大规模应用将在我们的年度研究静修和联合研究中开发 与特拉华州其他 NIH 资助中心（INBRE、其他 COBRE 和 CTR）举办研讨会和研讨会。
