PROJECT SUMMARY Background: Contemporary science emphasizes efficient translation of scientific discoveries into tangible, innovative products that can be used to improve human health. Thus, in addition to scientific expertise, today's biomedical scientists will need additional skills in innovation and entrepreneurship (I&E). Program: The Program in Innovation and Entrepreneurship for Biomedical Investigators (PIE-BI) will use novel training methods to build core skills in established I&E competencies. Leveraging the strengths of our local environment, the PIE-BI will provide research trainees from Washington University and other institutions with short courses and a variety of opportunities for mentored experiential learning and career guidance. The curriculum is designed to be flexible to allow trainees to tailor their learning to their interest and complement their ongoing research training program. A Certificate of Accomplishment will be issued for completion of the core curriculum and a capstone project. Over 5-years we will: 1) Identify a set of core I&E competencies for biomedical researchers with input from industry, academia, government, and student; 2) Based on these competencies, develop and test the PIE-BI; 3) Provide trainees with opportunities to learn I&E skills and receive career development advice from mentors with I&E expertise from diverse cultural, academic, industrial, and entrepreneurial backgrounds; 4) Extend the reach of the PIE-BI curriculum to other institutions and trainees from underrepresented minorities. Team: An outstanding, multidisciplinary team has been assembled to design and implement the program, bringing together complementary skills and expertise in biomedical research, research training, and I&E. Innovation: Our training program is highly innovative because it applies competencies and curriculum specifically focused on I&E for biomedical investigators and it is multidisciplinary on many levels. Also, the flexible, hybrid online, face-to-face, and mentored experiential course delivery model allows trainees to develop a unique training experience to augment their scientific training.

项目摘要 背景：当代科学强调科学发现有效地翻译成有形的， 可用于改善人类健康的创新产品。因此，除了科学专业知识外， 生物医学科学家将需要创新和企业家精神（I＆E）的其他技能。 计划：生物医学研究人员的创新和创业计划（PIE-BI）将 使用新颖的培训方法来建立既定的I＆E能力。利用 我们的本地环境，PIE-BI将为华盛顿大学和其他 有短期课程的机构，以及各种有指导的体验学习和职业的机会 指导。该课程旨在灵活，以允许学员为自己的兴趣量身定制学习，并且 补充他们正在进行的研究培训计划。将签发成就证明 完成核心课程和一个顶峰项目。 在5年以上，我们将：1）确定一组生物医学研究人员的核心I＆E能力，并通过 行业，学术界，政府和学生； 2）基于这些能力，开发和测试pie-bi； 3）为受训者提供学习I＆E技能并从导师那里获得职业发展建议的机会 具有来自多种文化，学术，工业和企业家背景的I＆E专业知识； 4）扩展 从代表性不足的少数群体的其他机构和受训人员到达PIE-BI课程。 团队：一支杰出的多学科团队已组装以设计和实施该计划， 将生物医学研究，研究培训和I＆E的补充技能和专业知识汇总在一起。 创新：我们的培训计划具有很高的创新性，因为它运用了能力和课程 专门针对生物医学研究人员的I＆E，在许多层面上都是多学科的。另外， 灵活的，混合的在线，面对面和受过指导的体验课程交付模型允许受训者发展 独特的培训经验，以增加他们的科学培训。
