ABSTRACT This renewal application would provide funding to administer the Neurosurgeon Research Career Development Program (NRCDP) for another five years. This program is the basis of a continued national effort to support, train, and mentor junior neurosurgical faculty members at appropriate institutions nationwide. The proposal addresses the rationale and ongoing need for the NRCDP and includes several proposed innovations to augment and expand the scope and diversity of the program, the leadership structure, and the rationale for the selection of the National Advisory Committee (NAC). It also details a well-developed and robust system for the recruitment and selection of scholar-applicants based on their potential, their mentor’s track-record, and the support of their Chairs. In addition, there is a description of the Annual Retreat, which includes applicant interviews, symposia on reproducibility and rigor, interactive grant-preparation sessions, and NIH style “study-section”, where the NAC reviews applications and selects Scholars. Eligible candidates are newly appointed neurosurgical faculty within one year of completing residency or fellowship. Successful applicants are called Scholars. Qualified applicants not selected for funding are called Emerging Investigators and are also an important part of the program. The primary goal of the program is to support Scholars along the path to scientific independence. Hence, an important metric is success in securing subsequent independent funding from the NIH, or other federal agencies. In the 10 years the program has been in place, we have reviewed applications from 138 individuals, at 75 different institutions, located in 36 states. In the most recent analysis, we found that the success rate for Scholars obtaining subsequent NIH funding increased significantly year by year – approaching 85% by nine years. These benefits did not only accrue to Scholars, but also to Emerging Investigators. Their success rate in obtaining subsequent independent NIH funding also grew over time, though at a slower rate, and approached 60% by nine years, due to the development of a parallel path for continued mentoring in the Academy Emerging Investigator Program (EIP). In this competing renewal, we have identified four important priorities: Goal One: To promote and foster diversity, equity, and inclusion at all program levels. Goal Two: To create a “Pipeline Program” to recruit the most talented and diverse group of K12 applicants. Goal Three: To expand the “Training Program” to accelerate timing to first independent NIH award. Goal Four: Establish an NRCDP leadership structure that embraces continuous renewal and evolution. Achievement of these goals will lead to a cadre of diverse, independent neurosurgeon- scientists that perform ethical, rigorous, and high-impact research into the pathogenesis and treatment for many of most disabling disorders affecting the nervous system.

摘要 这份续签申请将为管理神经外科医生研究职业发展提供资金 计划(NRCDP)再延长五年。这一计划是国家继续努力支持的基础， 在全国范围内的适当机构培训和指导初级神经外科教员。这项建议 阐述了NRCDP的基本原理和持续需求，并包括几项拟议的创新以增强 并扩大方案的范围和多样性、领导结构和选择的理由 国家咨询委员会(NAC)。它还详细说明了一个完善和强大的招聘系统 并根据他们的潜力，他们的导师的记录和他们的支持来选择奖学金申请者 椅子。此外，还有对年度务虚会的描述，其中包括申请人面试、座谈会 关于可重复性和严谨性，互动式赠款准备会议，以及NIH风格的“研究部分”，其中NAC 审查申请并遴选学者。 符合条件的应聘者是在完成实习一年内新聘的神经外科教师或 团契。成功的申请者被称为学者。未被选中资助的合格申请者被称为 新兴的调查人员，也是该项目的重要组成部分。该计划的主要目标是 支持学者们走上科学独立的道路。因此，一个重要的衡量标准是确保 随后，来自美国国立卫生研究院或其他联邦机构的独立资金。在过去的10年里，该计划一直在 目前，我们已经审查了来自36个州75个不同机构的138名个人的申请。在……里面 最新的分析，我们发现学者获得后续NIH资金的成功率 逐年大幅增长--九年间接近85%。这些好处不仅增加了 学者，但也对新兴的研究人员。他们在随后获得独立的NIH的成功率 由于这一发展，资金也随着时间的推移而增长，尽管增长速度较慢，到九年时接近60%。 在学院新兴研究人员计划(EIP)中提供持续指导的平行途径。 在这一相互竞争的更新中，我们确定了四个重要优先事项：目标一：促进和促进多样性， 所有计划级别的公平性和包容性。目标二：打造招才引智的“管道计划” 和多样化的K12申请者群体。目标三：扩大“培训计划”，加快时间安排 美国国立卫生研究院第一个独立奖项。目标四：建立NRCDP的领导结构，包括持续 更新和进化。这些目标的实现将导致一支多元化、独立的神经外科医生队伍- 对许多疾病的发病机制和治疗进行伦理、严谨和高影响研究的科学家 大多数影响神经系统的致残性疾病。
