PILOT CORE PROJECT SUMMARY The Pilot Project Core of the Center for Technology and Behavioral Health (CTBH) aims to support novel pilot projects that offer considerable promise to have a large impact on the field, as part of the Center’s activities to support the development and evaluation of cutting-edge applications of technology to the treatment of substance use disorders. Since the initial funding period over the past 9 years, the Pilot Core awarded 32 innovative pilots (on a competitive basis based on blinded peer-review modeled after the NIH review process). The projects resulted from 14 Requests for Applications (1-2 per year) that included a combination of open investigator-initiated project solicitations and targeted Requests for Applications (RFAs) focused on collaborative projects bringing together teams with expertise from diverse research disciplines to address topics with key relevance to substance use including behavioral health, computer science, engineering, data science, and User Interface/User Experience (UI/UX) design. Among these awards, the Pilot Core has awarded 11 pilot grants to post-doctoral level trainees, 3 pilot grants to Instructor level researchers, and 5 pilot grants to Assistant Professor level junior faculty, supporting the CTBH mission to train future scientists in digital health approaches to substance use. To date the pilot grants have made significant contributions to the scientific literature, resulting in 25 peer reviewed publications, and over 20 funded research grants (18 of which were specifically related to substance use), including 2 NIH Ks, a CTN study, NIH R34, R42 and R01 grants, as well as PCORI, NIDILRR, SAMHSA, foundation and CDC grants. In this second renewal phase of the CTBH P30, the Pilot Core plans to support an average of 3-4 pilot projects per year to continue to fund the development of a “pipeline” of new areas of research that could then progress to more rigorous empirical testing via external funding mechanisms after the pilot phase. We plan to continue a targeted RFA process to seed innovation in areas consistent with the scientific aims of this P30. In this process, approximately 50% of the pilot funding opportunities will continue to be Investigator-initiated. And, about 50% of pilots will be supported in response to specific RFAs on timely and understudied issues that offer great promise to advance the field, including continued support of collaborations between technology and behavioral health experts and support of pilots in CTBH’s new priority areas. Consistent with our efforts to increase the diversity of the scientific community of researchers focused on substance use, we are also committed to increasing applications from underrepresented minority applicants. All awards will be made available on a competitive basis to support pilot projects by diverse research teams affiliated with CTBH. The Pilot Core Director will advise recipients of pilot project funds on optimal next steps in seeking extramural funding to support a line of research that builds on pilot study results.

试点核心项目摘要 技术与行为健康中心 (CTBH) 的试点项目核心旨在支持 作为该中心的一部分，新颖的试点项目有望对该领域产生巨大影响 支持开发和评估尖端治疗技术应用的活动 物质使用障碍。自最初资助期以来的 9 年里，试点核心项目已授予 32 创新试点（在竞争的基础上，以 NIH 审查流程为模型，进行盲法同行审查）。 这些项目源自 14 份申请请求（每年 1-2 份），其中包括开放式项目的组合 研究者发起的项目招标和有针对性的申请请求（RFA）重点关注 协作项目汇集了具有不同研究学科专业知识的团队来解决 与物质使用关键相关的主题，包括行为健康、计算机科学、工程、数据 科学和用户界面/用户体验（UI/UX）设计。在这些奖项中，Pilot Core 拥有 授予博士后研修生试点资助 11 名、导师级研究人员试点资助 3 名、试点资助 5 名 向助理教授级别的初级教师提供资助，支持 CTBH 培养未来科学家的使命 物质使用的数字健康方法。迄今为止，试点补助金已为 科学文献，产生了 25 份同行评审出版物，以及超过 20 项资助的研究经费（其中 18 项 与物质使用特别相关），包括 2 个 NIH K、一项 CTN 研究、NIH R34、R42 和 R01 拨款， 以及 PCORI、NIDILRR、SAMHSA、基金会和 CDC 拨款。 在 CTBH P30 的第二次更新阶段，Pilot Core 计划平均支持 3-4 名飞行员 每年的项目继续资助新研究领域“管道”的开发，然后可以 试点阶段后，通过外部资助机制进行更严格的实证测试。我们计划 继续开展有针对性的 RFA 流程，在符合本 P30 科学目标的领域培育创新。在 在此过程中，大约 50% 的试点资助机会将继续由研究者发起。和， 大约 50% 的试点将获得支持，以响应针对及时且未充分研究的问题的特定 RFA，这些问题可提供 推动该领域发展的巨大承诺，包括继续支持技术和技术之间的合作 行为健康专家以及 CTBH 新优先领域试点的支持。与我们的努力一致 增加专注于物质使用的研究人员科学界的多样性，我们还 致力于增加代表性不足的少数族裔申请人的申请。所有奖项将颁发 在竞争的基础上提供支持 CTBH 附属不同研究团队的试点项目。这 试点核心主任将就寻求校外的最佳后续步骤向试点项目资金的接受者提供建议 资助以试点研究结果为基础的一系列研究。
