The Outreach, Dissemination and Training Core (Outreach Core) of the Indiana University-Ohio State University Maternal and Pediatric Precision in Therapeutics Data, Model, Knowledge, and Research Coordination Center (IU-OSU MPRINT DMKRCC) will serve as a conduit between the MPRINT Hub and the broader scientific community. The Outreach Core will facilitate interactions with external partners to enhance knowledge, research, and educational efforts in maternal and pediatric therapeutics. The aims of the Outreach Core include: 1) Working in concert with other KRCC cores and the MPRINT CETs, develop a centralized MPRINT Hub website and identity, coordinate timely dissemination of data through the MPRINT Hub and promote, monitor, and evaluate utilization of the MPRINT Hub; 2) Promote the MPRINT Hub to researchers, clinicians, and the public by organizing an annual MPRINT Hub scientific meeting, presentations at scientific meetings, through publications, and over social media in order to expand maternal-pediatric clinical pharmacology research and foster collaborations with public and private research partners; and 3) Develop, disseminate, and conduct training opportunities for individuals within and beyond the MPRINT Hub to develop skills in maternal and pediatric pharmacology, pharmacometrics, pharmacogenomics, data science, and drug development. Such opportunities will include workshops at scientific meetings and the annual MPRINT Hub scientific meeting, webinars and online tutorials, which will be made freely available through the MPRINT Hub website and the NICHD’s Virtual Network for pharmacology trainees. The Outreach Core will also survey the community to help identify gaps in knowledge and research tools as well as the success of the MPRINT Hub to satisfy the needs of the maternal and pediatric therapeutic research community. Additionally, the Outreach Core will maintain and evaluate usage of the MPRINT Hub Website and social media platforms, and coordinate with the MPRINT Hub Steering Committee to reprioritize activities and set milestones for performance. Through these activities, the Outreach Core will promote the resources provided by the MPRINT Hub in order to accelerate research in maternal and pediatric therapeutics.
