项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This competitive renewal application responds to PAR-12-264 "NIMH Mentoring Networks for Mental Health Research Education (R25)" and requests continued funding of the "Advanced Research Institute (ARI) in Geriatric Mental Health". ARI is a national mentoring network that supports the transition of early-career faculty to independent investigators conducting high impact research in geriatric mental health. The goal of this renewal period is the ARI's long term impact, with a focus on the continued growth in the number of Independent Scientists (e.g., R01/R34-level investigators) conducting translational, intervention, and services research related to late-life mental health; and the development of the next generation of mentors and leaders to take responsibility for ongoing development of new investigators conducting high impact research. Outcomes analyses demonstrate ARI's impact on career development with evidence of a Two-fold increase in R01/R34 funding. Over 95% of the first 7 cohorts (N=68) still have active research careers. To date six ARI graduates are now ARI mentors, eleven have participated as guest faculty; and nineteen have been ARI- sponsored mentors for junior investigators at national and international meetings. The ARI Educational Program supports 16 early-career faculty annually. Key elements include: sustained mentoring by a member of the program faculty and structured opportunities for consultation. The program includes an annual in-person Spring Retreat and proposes new strategies of long-distance follow-up, mentor- training, and web-based seminars. The mentoring network is a multi-disciplinary team of scientists with complementary skills which span the spectrum of translational, interventions and services research. Public Health Impact: The unmet mental health needs of older adults is a significant public health problem that affects not only those who suffer from mental disorders but their families, care providers, communities, and institutions that deliver and pay for care. The impact of late life mental illness will only intensify as the nation's population ages. The capacity of research to reduce the burden of mental illness in late life rests largely on ongoing enrichment of the field with new independent investigators from across the translational spectrum with state-of-the-art training and innovative ideas. The goal of this application is to strengthen ARI's long term impact on developing independent investigators prepared to meet these scientific and public health challenges.

描述（由申请人提供）：此竞争性更新申请响应PAR-12-264“NIMH心理健康研究教育指导网络（R25）”，并请求继续资助“老年心理健康高级研究所（ARI）”。ARI是一个全国性的指导网络，支持早期职业教师转变为在老年心理健康方面进行高影响力研究的独立调查人员。这一更新期的目标是ARI的长期影响，重点是进行与晚年心理健康相关的转化、干预和服务研究的独立科学家（例如R01/ r34级研究人员）数量的持续增长；培养下一代导师和领导者，负责不断培养进行高影响力研究的新研究者。结果分析表明ARI对职业发展的影响，有证据表明R01/R34资助增加了两倍。前7组（N=68）中95%以上的人仍有活跃的研究生涯。迄今为止，6名ARI毕业生现在是ARI的导师，11名作为客座教师参加；19人在国家和国际会议上担任ARI资助的初级研究人员导师。ARI教育计划每年支持16名早期职业教师。关键要素包括：项目教师成员的持续指导和结构化的咨询机会。该计划包括每年一次面对面的春季静修，并提出了远程跟踪、导师培训和网络研讨会的新策略。指导网络是一个多学科的科学家团队，他们具有互补的技能，跨越了转化、干预和服务研究的范围。公共卫生影响：老年人未得到满足的精神卫生需求是一个重大的公共卫生问题，不仅影响到精神障碍患者，而且影响到他们的家庭、护理提供者、社区以及提供和支付护理费用的机构。随着人口老龄化，老年精神疾病的影响只会加剧。减轻晚年精神疾病负担的研究能力在很大程度上取决于该领域的不断丰富，来自整个转化谱的新独立研究者具有最先进的培训和创新思想。这一申请的目标是加强ARI对培养准备好迎接这些科学和公共卫生挑战的独立研究人员的长期影响。
