Dissemination and Outreach Core

摘要--传播与外延核心 杜克大学自闭症卓越中心(ACE)的总体目标是使用翻译的数字健康和 解决有效的自闭症筛查工具的迫切需要的计算方法，客观结果 措施，以及可用于自闭症儿童临床试验的基于大脑的生物标记物。这个 传播和外联核心(DOC)将以三种方式支持这一努力。第一，我们将为 向包括科学家、从业者、教育工作者、立法者在内的广泛受众传达研究结果 自闭症患者及其家人和公众。第二，DOC将促进双向交流 在ACE调查人员与自闭症患者及其家庭成员的社区之间。我们将参与一项 广泛的社区参与活动，支持我们与 社区。我们将通过ACE的种族、文化和民族交流促进双向交流 多元化社区参与咨询委员会(CEAB)，其中包括自我倡导者、家长、教育工作者、 政策领导者、医疗保健提供者和企业领袖。双向交流也将通过以下方式促进 利用我们与国家和州一级政府组织的现有牢固伙伴关系，自闭症 倡导组织和教育非营利性组织。我们将继续与 杜克大学内部的组织，如杜克大学临床学院的社区参与研究倡议(CERI) 和翻译科学研究所(CTSI)。第三，DOC将支持学生、博士后的职业生涯 研究员和早期调查人员，并与行政核心协作，实施战略，以 增加来自代表性不足群体和自闭症患者的工作人员、学生和调查人员的数量 社区。为了促进自闭症研究队伍的多样性，我们将利用CTSI的Duke-North 卡罗莱纳中央大学(NCCU)桥梁办公室，支持与调查人员和 NCCU的实习生，这是当地一所历史悠久的黑人大学。我们将利用现有的ACE、部门、大学、 以及促进公平和包容的国家倡议。通过与杜克大学神经多样性研究所合作 我们将支持不同神经质学生的职业生涯。《DOC》 还将监督和监测我们加强多元化视角计划的进展情况。DOC将会起作用 使用数据管理和分析核心(DMAC)来跟踪传播活动和 员工、学习者、教职员工和研究参与者的多样化趋势，如果目标没有实现，将 实施新战略以实现其目标。

ABSTRACT – Dissemination and Outreach Core The overall goal of the Duke Autism Center of Excellence (ACE) is to use a translational digital health and computational approach to address the critical need for effective autism screening tools, objective outcome measures, and brain-based biomarkers that can be used in clinical trials with young autistic children. The Dissemination and Outreach Core (DOC) will support this effort in three ways. First, we will facilitate communication of findings to a wide range of audiences, including scientists, practitioners, educators, legislators, autistic people and their families, and the public. Second, the DOC will promote bi-directional communication between ACE investigators and the community of autistic individuals and family members. We will engage in a wide range of community engagement activities that support our relationships and communication with the community. We will promote bi-directional communication through the ACE’s racially, culturally, and ethnically diverse Community Engagement Advisory Board (CEAB), which includes self-advocates, parents, educators, policy leaders, healthcare providers, and business leaders. Two-way communication also will be promoted by leveraging our existing strong partnerships with national and state-level government organizations, autism advocacy organizations, and education nonprofit organizations. We will continue our partnerships with organizations internal to Duke, such as the Community Engaged Research Initiative (CERI) of the Duke Clinical and Translational Science Institute (CTSI). Third, the DOC will support the careers of students, postdoctoral fellows, and early-stage investigators, and in collaboration with the Administrative Core, implement strategies to increase the number of staff, students, and investigators from underrepresented groups and the autistic community. To promote diversity in the autism research workforce, we will leverage the CTSI’s Duke-North Carolina Central University (NCCU) Bridge Office to support research collaborations with investigators and trainees at NCCU, a local historically Black university. We will leverage existing ACE, departmental, university, and national initiatives to promote equity and inclusion. Through collaboration with Duke Neurodiversity Connections and the NC Autistic Career Summit, we will support the careers of neurodiverse students. The DOC will also oversee and monitor progress toward our Plan for Enhancing Diverse Perspectives. The DOC will work with the Data Management and Analysis Core (DMAC) to track effectiveness of dissemination activities and diversity trends for staff, learners, faculty, and research participants, and if goals are not being met, will implement new strategies to reach its goals.
