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：当代科学强调将科学发现有效地转化为有形的， 创新产品，可用于改善人类健康。因此，除了科学专业知识之外，今天的 生物医学科学家将需要创新和创业（I&E）方面的额外技能。 生物医学研究人员创新和创业计划（PIE-BI）将 使用新的培训方法，在既定的I&E能力中培养核心技能。充分利用 我们当地的环境，PIE-BI将提供来自华盛顿大学和其他 提供短期课程和各种指导体验式学习和职业机会的机构 指导课程的设计是灵活的，让学员量身定制他们的学习他们的兴趣， 补充他们正在进行的研究培训计划。以下人士将获颁发结业证书： 完成核心课程和顶点项目。 在5年内，我们将：1）通过以下方面的投入，为生物医学研究人员确定一套核心I&E能力： 产业界、学术界、政府和学生; 2）基于这些能力，开发和测试PIE-BI; 3)为学员提供机会，学习I&E技能，并获得导师的职业发展建议 拥有来自不同文化、学术、工业和创业背景的I&E专业知识; 4） 将PIE-BI课程推广到其他机构和代表性不足的少数群体的受训人员。 团队：一个优秀的，多学科的团队已经组装到设计和实施该计划， 汇集了生物医学研究、研究培训和I&E方面的互补技能和专业知识。 创新：我们的培训计划具有高度创新性，因为它适用于能力和课程 它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。还 灵活、混合的在线、面对面和辅导式体验课程交付模式，使学员能够发展 一个独特的训练经验，以加强他们的科学训练。
