Pilot Projects Program

试点项目的核心 第三阶段试点项目核心的总体目标是维持#年开发的研究环境 前两个阶段，为试点研究项目、职业指导和强化活动提供支持。 作为前几阶段行政核心的一部分，我们已向25名调查员授予29个试点项目，这些项目来自 多学科。这些试点项目获奖者在经验丰富的导师的指导下，开发了新的 研究合作发表了280篇稿件，获得了93个独立的校外奖项，共 金额超过3390万美元，担任170多名学员的导师，并在343个应邀研讨会上发表演讲， 包括47个国际场馆、100个国家场馆和196个地方场馆。在我们过去成功的基础上，试点项目 第三阶段的核心，加上行政核心的支持，准备满足试点项目的需要 CPVB领域的调查人员与专业开发活动和试点资金一起测试新的、 新颖、创新的想法，为拨款申请获得初步数据，开发技术或科学 方法，并建立新的合作关系。此外，我们的潜在试点项目申请者库仍在 实力雄厚，预计将随着心血管和肺科关键教员招聘的进行而增长 在海洋州立研究院/普罗维登斯退伍军人医学中心以及我们的附属医院和大学。 与CPVB Cobre的总体目标一致，试点项目核心的具体目标是：i) 奖励心肺血管生物学领域的高影响力试点项目；ii)促进专业人员 通过结构化方式为早期职业教师试点项目获奖者提供发展和外部资金 编程、指导和接触该领域的领导者；iii)促进新的合作和研究 通过确定跨学科、跨机构和板凳到床边协作的优先顺序，建立团队；以及四) 扩大技术核心服务的用户基础，并利用利益攸关方维持CPVB的试点资金。 CPVB Cobre在未来5年支持的试点项目资金的可用性，以及CPVB COBRE的技术核心专业知识和服务以及专业发展活动，将是留住 早期的教职员工专注于国际扶轮的血管生物学。

The Pilot Projects Core The overall objective of the Pilot Project Core in Phase III is to sustain the research environment developed in the first two phases by providing support for pilot research projects, career guidance, and enhancement activities. As part of the Administrative Core in prior phases, we have awarded 25 investigators with 29 pilot projects from multiple disciplines. These Pilot Project awardees, guided by experienced mentors, have developed new research collaborations, published 280 manuscripts, received 93 independent extramural awards with a total amount over $33.9 million, served as mentor for over 170 trainees, and presented at 343 invited sessions, including 47 international, 100 national, and 196 local venues. Building on our past success, the Pilot Project Core in Phase III, along with support from the Administrative Core, is poised to meet the needs of the Pilot Project Investigators in the area of CPVB with professional development activities and pilot funding to test out new, novel, innovative ideas, obtain preliminary data for grant submissions, develop techniques or scientific approaches, and establish new collaborations. Moreover, our pool of potential pilot project applicants remains strong and is anticipated to grow with key faculty recruitment in cardiovascular and pulmonary divisions ongoing at Ocean State Research Institute/Providence VA Medical Center and at our affiliated hospitals and universities. Congruent with the overarching goals of CPVB COBRE, the Specific Aims of the Pilot Projects Core are to: i) award high-impact pilot projects in area of cardiopulmonary vascular biology; ii) promote professional development and extramural funding of early career faculty pilot project awardees through structured programming, mentorship, and exposure to leaders in the field; iii) facilitate new collaborations and research teams through prioritization of interdisciplinary, interinstitutional, and bench to bedside collaborations; and iv) enhance the user base for technical core services and leverage stakeholders to sustain pilot funding in CPVB. Availability of the CPVB COBRE supported Pilot Project funding over the next 5 years, coupled with the CPVB COBRE technical core expertise and services and professional development activities, will be critical to retain early career faculty and faculty focused on vascular biology in RI.
