ABSTRACT (Pilot Project Program) The Pilot Project Program (PPP) contributes to the mission of the Michigan Center on Lifestage Environmental Exposures and Disease (M-LEEaD) by supporting pilot projects that encourage innovation, creativity, and multidisciplinary collaborations, especially among basic scientists, clinical researchers, and community and regulatory stakeholders. The Pilot Project Program is an important mechanism for attracting new individuals to our Center and for providing support to generate preliminary data to compete for external funding. The aims of the Pilot Project Program are to: 1) attract established investigators new to our Center who can provide new insights and approaches to questions regarding the relationships between lifestage environmental exposures and disease; 2) encourage innovation, creativity, and multidisciplinary collaborations, especially between basic scientists, clinical researchers, and community and regulatory stakeholders; 3) facilitate our Center members' ability to respond quickly and effectively to new and quick-turnaround research opportunities, especially those from NIEHS; and 4) provide important support for early-stage investigators to generate preliminary data for developing independent research projects and compete for independent funding. This approach was successful in the previous funding periods as evidenced by the number of junior faculty supported, the new collaborations that were formed, the participation of scientists new to environmental health research that participated in Center activities as a result of the Pilot Project Program, the number of external grant applications submitted, the number of resulting publications, and career advancement, all as summarized in the Research Strategy. Important advances in the administration of the Pilot Project Program during the last cycle include: 1) the further advancement and refinement of a reviewer consortium with other P30 centers to help improve objectivity of the reviews as well as avoid conflicts of interest that can result from reviews by others in the same institution; 2) a modified scoring system and additional pilot funds to enhance community engagement; and 3) a rapid response mechanism for funding exploratory work in high priority areas with a very short turnaround time. In the next cycle of the Pilot Project Program, we will build on the momentum generated in the current funding period by continuing the wide distribution of the Request for Applications throughout the School of Public Health and the Medical School, continuing the reviewer consortium and continuing to promote the use of our Core facilities. We will also continue our practice of including a CEC member on the review committee responsible for ranking of the proposals to assure their input. Together, these practices will continue the groundbreaking research developed in the initial cycles of the Pilot Project Program to advance a comprehensive and integrated environmental health paradigm.

摘要（试点项目计划） 试点项目计划（PPP）为密歇根州生命环境中心的任务做出了贡献 通过支持鼓励创新，创造力和 多学科合作，尤其是基础科学家，临床研究人员和社区中的合作以及 监管利益相关者。试点项目计划是吸引新个人的重要机制 我们的中心并提供支持以生成初步数据以争夺外部资金。目的 试点项目计划是：1）吸引新来的既定调查员，他们可以提供新的 有关生命世界环境暴露之间关系的问题的见解和方法 和疾病； 2）鼓励创新，创造力和多学科合作，尤其是基本 科学家，临床研究人员以及社区和监管利益相关者； 3）促进我们的中心成员的 能够快速有效地响应新的，快速的研究机会，尤其是那些 来自Niehs； 4）为早期研究人员提供重要的支持，以生成初步数据 开发独立的研究项目并争夺独立资金。这种方法是 在前几个资金期间，成功的初级教师人数证明了这一点，新的 成立的合作，环境健康研究的新科学家的参与 由于试点项目计划，外部赠款的数量参加了中心活动 提交的申请，由此产生的出版物数量和职业发展，所有这些都是总结的 研究策略。最后一次试点项目计划的重要进展 周期包括：1）审阅者联盟与其他P30中心的进一步进步和完善 帮助提高评论的客观性，并避免利益冲突，这可能是由 同一机构中的其他人； 2）改进的评分系统和额外的试点资金，以增强社区 订婚; 3）在高优先区域中资助探索性工作的快速响应机制， 时间很短。在试点项目计划的下一个周期中，我们将建立在产生的动量的基础上 在当前的资金期间，通过在整个过程中继续大量分配申请请求 公共卫生学院和医学院，继续审查员财团并继续促进 使用我们的核心设施。我们还将继续我们的练习，将CEC成员包括在审查中 负责对提案进行排名以确保其投入的委员会。这些实践将继续 开创性的研究在试点项目计划的最初周期中开发了，以促进 全面和综合的环境健康范式。
