Project Summary This is a competing renewal application for the Tulane BIRCWH Program, which has successfully trained a racially/ethnically and professionally diverse group of interdisciplinary researchers in women's health and in- creased awareness of women's health research at Tulane over the last 4 years. We propose now to build on our prior success and expand and reinforce the BIRCWH program base. The long-term goal is to increase the number and diversity of highly trained culturally competent, independent, interdisciplinary investigators in Women's Health with an emphasis on Sex Differences research in the field of cardiovascular disease (CVD) and related diseases. The program focuses on CVD and related diseases because of the impacts of heart dis- ease on women, the existing knowledge gaps on the sex differences in CVD across the research spectrum, and the strength of this focus at Tulane. Key components of our successful career development plan include 1) didactic courses tailored to specific Scholar needs; 2) individualized career development training; 3) BIRCWH seminar series; 4) Work-in-Progress sessions; 5) required grant writing and project management workshops; 6) mentored interdisciplinary research; 7) responsible conduct in research training; and 8) institu- tional resources. The innovative approach includes tailoring the program to Scholars needs using self-efficacy assessment and career development plans, and using a network mentoring model for each Scholar, including expertise in both basic science and clinical research. Scholars are immediately exposed to research and are guided to establish a scholarly track record early, and gain presentation and organization skills by active partic- ipation in the Health Sciences Research days-Women's Health/Sex Differences Section. New components of the enhanced BIRCWH program include additional faculty participation in new disciplines including BIRCWH alumni, mentor training for Mentors and Scholars, integration of rigor, reproducibility, transparency, and sex as a biologic variable training, strengthened collaboration with Xavier, a historically Black, less-research-intensive institution, and a planned pipeline for Scholars to the Centers of Biomedical Research Excellence. The Schol- ars will learn cutting-edge research methods and skills from Bench (cellular, molecular, and genetics), to Bed- side (clinical research and clinical trials) to Population (epidemiology, prevention, and health services re- search) and conduct their own research projects in established laboratories/research groups in a mentored, interdisciplinary environment that address the most recent ORWH priorities. Scholar's interdisciplinary re- search will focus on sex differences in CVD and related diseases and their risk factors and address overarch- ing themes (lifespan, sex/gender determinants, health disparities, and interdisciplinary research). We propose to train 6 faculty Scholars for a minimum of 2-3 years (3 years minimum for physician-scientists). Ongoing and comprehensive evaluation will guide improvements to the program's demonstrated effectiveness in bridging research training and research independence for junior scientists focused on Sex Differences and CVD.

项目概要 这是杜兰大学 BIRCWH 计划的竞争性更新申请，该计划已成功培训了 种族/族裔和专业多元化的跨学科研究人员群体，研究妇女健康和健康问题 过去 4 年提高了杜兰大学对女性健康研究的认识。我们现在建议以 我们之前的成功并扩大和加强了 BIRCWH 计划基础。长期目标是增加 训练有素、具有文化能力、独立、跨学科的调查人员的数量和多样性 女性健康，重点是心血管疾病 (CVD) 领域的性别差异研究 及相关疾病。由于心脏病的影响，该计划重点关注心血管疾病和相关疾病 对女性的缓解，整个研究领域对心血管疾病性别差异的现有知识差距， 以及杜兰大学这种专注力的强度。我们成功的职业发展计划的关键组成部分包括 1) 针对特定学者需求量身定制的教学课程； 2）个性化的职业发展培训； 3） BIRCWH系列研讨会； 4) 正在进行中的会议； 5）所需的资助写作和项目管理 讲习班； 6）指导跨学科研究； 7）在研究培训中负责任的行为； 8）机构- 国家资源。创新方法包括利用自我效能感来根据学者的需求定制课程 评估和职业发展计划，并为每位学者使用网络指导模型，包括 基础科学和临床研究方面的专业知识。学者们立即接触到研究并 指导尽早建立学术记录，并通过积极参与获得演讲和组织技能 健康科学研究日的ipation - 女性健康/性别差异部分。新组件 增强的 BIRCWH 计划包括额外的教师参与新学科，包括 BIRCWH 校友、导师和学者的导师培训、严谨性、可重复性、透明度和性别的整合 生物变量培训，加强与泽维尔（Xavier）的合作，泽维尔是一位历史上黑人、研究强度较低的人 机构，以及计划的学者进入生物医学研究卓越中心的管道。学校- ars将学习从Bench（细胞、分子和遗传学）到Bed-的前沿研究方法和技能 侧面（临床研究和临床试验）到人口（流行病学、预防和卫生服务重新 搜索）并在已建立的实验室/研究小组的指导下开展自己的研究项目， 解决 ORWH 最新优先事项的跨学科环境。学者的跨学科研究 搜索将重点关注心血管疾病和相关疾病的性别差异及其危险因素，并解决总体问题 主题（寿命、性别决定因素、健康差异和跨学科研究）。我们建议 培训 6 名教职学者，为期至少 2-3 年（医师科学家至少 3 年）。正在进行的和 综合评估将指导改进该计划在桥接方面所表现出的有效性 为初级科学家提供研究培训和研究独立性，重点关注性别差异和心血管疾病。
