Investigator Development Core

摘要 在上一个RCMI资助周期中，我们成功地在莫尔豪斯学院建立了一个指导学院。 医学（MSM）与促进教师发展导致可持续的研究增长的具体目标。我们 采取了团队指导的方法，以促进我们的科学环境的变化。研究者发展核心 (IDC)将继续在先前RCMI成就的基础上，与 行政核心、社区参与核心、招聘核心和研究基础设施核心， 充满活力的研究开发环境有利于培养下一代生物医学研究人员， 将在与健康差距相关的基础，转化和/或临床研究中保持独立的职业生涯， 响应男男性接触者推进卫生公平的使命。IDC旨在建立一个全机构的 研究人员发展的组织框架，研究项目启动支持和指导。我们 中心假设是，指导星座将导致可持续的个性化成长， 促进健康差距研究和健康公平。我们将在三个具体目标中讨论这一假设。 具体目标1：提供一个组织框架，以加强研究培训和职业发展， 跨学科生物医学、临床前、临床和社会科学环境。我们希望发展一个可持续的 研究者发展核心，以促进我们的教师谁可以翻译结果的独立职业发展 减少健康差距的研究。具体目标2：提供一个充满活力的培训环境， 跨学科生物医学，临床前，临床和社会科学合作和奖学金。我们期望 将孤立的生物医学，临床前，临床和社会科学环境转变为参与团队科学之一 translational平移continuum连续体.具体目标3：提供利用现有培训的全机构资源 计划和整合研究项目支持和指导，以提高独立的职业发展。 这一目标的实现将导致我们的研究环境企业的可持续发展，通过个人 职业发展。我们希望拟议的计划将对研究产生重大而积极的影响。 通过帮助建立一个有竞争力的，独立的研究人员谁是致力于健康差距研究池 持续的研究事业，重点是不成比例地影响少数民族和健康差距人口的疾病。

Abstract During the last RCMI funding cycle we have successfully established a Mentoring Academy at Morehouse School of Medicine (MSM) with the specific goal of facilitating faculty development leading to sustainable research growth. We took on a team mentoring approach to facilitate change in our scientific environment. The Investigator Development Core (IDC) will continue to build on the foundation of the previous RCMI accomplishments by working synergistically with the Administration Core, Community Engagement Core, Recruitment Core and the Research Infrastructure Core to create a vibrant research development environment conducive to nurturing the next generation of biomedical investigators who will sustain independent careers in basic, translational and/or clinical research related to health disparities and are responsive to the MSM mission of advancing health equity. The IDC is designed to establish an institution-wide organizational framework for research faculty development, research program start-up support and mentorship. Our central hypothesis is that mentoring constellations will lead to sustainable individualized growth leading to the advancement of health disparity research and health equity. We will address this hypothesis in three specific aims. Specific Aim 1: Provide an organizational frame work for enhancing research training and career development in an interdisciplinary biomedical, pre-clinical, clinical and social science environment. We expect to develop a sustainable investigator development core to facilitate the independent career advancement of our faculty who can translate the results of their research to reduce health disparity. Specific Aim 2: Provide a vibrant training environment that fosters innovative, interdisciplinary biomedical, pre-clinical, clinical and social science collaboration and scholarship. We expect to transform the siloed biomedical, preclinical, clinical and social science environment to one of engaged team science across the translational continuum. Specific Aim 3: Provide an institution-wide resource that leverages existing training programs and integrates research project support and mentorship to enhance independent career advancement. Achievement of this aim will lead to the sustainable growth of our research environment enterprise through individual career advancement. It is our expectation that the proposed program will significantly and positively impact the study of health disparity research by helping to build a pool of competitive, independent researchers who are dedicated to sustaining research careers that focus on diseases that disproportionately affect minority and health disparity populations.
