DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Through the funding of the EARDA Phase I and Phase II grants from the Extramural Associates Program of the National Institutes of Health (NIH), Virginia State University (VSU) established the Office of Health-Research Sciences . This Office contributed to a significant increase in extramural funding under the leadership of Dr. Shobha Sriharan, Director of the EARDA Grant and Extramural Associates. Dr. Sriharan assisted faculty members in developing realistic proposals, provided training to faculty members in the Science and Engineering Departments on Pre-Award and Post-Award Grantsmanship, and developed new collaborations with research -intensive institution for faculty pilot research projects. During the Phase I and Phase II Grant, Virginia State University obtained approximately 4.0 million dollars as extramural funding from the NIH, NASA, Department of Energy, and Department of Education. The proposed "Transition Award" will enable Virginia State University to enhance the research infrastructure through pilot research projects, conduct faculty training in Pre-Award and Post-Award grantsmanship, facilitate Minority faculty and student development, and develop collaborations with research intensive institutions. The main emphasis of this proposal is to strengthen the research capabilities of Minority and Women faculty members and students through their involvement in Minority Supplements, pilot research projects, summer fellowship and internship programs at the research-intensive institutions and Federal research laboratories. The specific aims of this proposal are: (a) to enhance faculty research capabilities in biomedical and behavioral sciences through pilot research projects, (b) to involve Minority faculty in research through Minority Supplements, (c) to encourage women faulty members to participate in programs on Gender and Equity Programs of the National Science Foundation, (d) to increase the visibility of the Extramural Associate, Dr. Sriharan, through her role in Grantsmanship on campus, (e) to conduct training in the fundamentals of writing successful grant applications, (f) to develop collaborations with research-intensive institutions, (g) to assist faculty members in learning electronic research administration, (h) to facilitate and guide Minority students to participate in research and plan science careers, (i) to share the functions on Grantsmanship with the Offices of Sponsored Research and Programs and Grants and Contracts, and (j) to merge the EARDA Office of Research Development "Transition Award" with the Office of Sponsored Research and Programs. This proposal has the committment from the VSU Administration through it letters of support (7% Cash Contribution to the total direct costs, in-kind contribution of $280,000, and faculty support for pilot research projects). It is anticipated that at the end of the "Transition Award", the Office of Sponsored Research Programs will be a self-sustaining office.

描述（由申请人提供）： 通过EARDA第一阶段和第二阶段的赠款，从美国国立卫生研究院（NIH）的校外协会计划，弗吉尼亚州立大学（VSU）建立了健康研究科学办公室。 在EARDA赠款和校外协会主任Shobha Sriharan博士的领导下，该办公室为校外资金的大幅增加做出了贡献。 Sriharan博士协助教职员工制定切合实际的建议，为科学和工程系的教职员工提供关于奖前和奖后授予的培训，并与研究密集型机构开展新的合作，以开展教职员工试点研究项目。 在第一阶段和第二阶段赠款期间，弗吉尼亚州立大学从NIH、NASA、能源部和教育部获得了大约400万美元的校外资金。 拟议中的“过渡奖”将使弗吉尼亚州立大学通过试点研究项目加强研究基础设施，在奖前和奖后赠款进行教师培训，促进少数民族教师和学生的发展，并与研究密集型机构开展合作。 该提案的主要重点是加强少数民族和妇女教职员工和学生的研究能力，让他们参与少数民族补充、试点研究项目、夏季奖学金和研究密集型机构和联邦研究实验室的实习方案。 这项建议的具体目标是：（a）通过试点研究项目提高教师在生物医学和行为科学方面的研究能力，（B）通过少数民族补充材料让少数民族教师参与研究，（c）鼓励女性错误成员参加国家科学基金会的性别和平等方案，（d）提高校外助理Sriharan博士的知名度，通过她在校园里的角色，（e）在写作成功的补助金申请的基础上进行培训，（f）发展与研究密集型机构的合作，（g）帮助教师学习电子研究管理，（h）促进和指导少数民族学生参与研究和规划科学事业，（i）与赞助研究和计划办公室以及赠款和合同办公室共享赠款的职能，以及（j）将EARDA研究发展“过渡奖”办公室与赞助研究和计划办公室合并。 该提案得到了弗吉尼亚州立大学管理部门的支持（直接费用总额的7%现金捐助，28万美元的实物捐助，以及对试点研究项目的教师支持）。预计在“过渡奖”结束时，赞助研究方案办公室将成为一个自我维持的办公室。
