PROJECT SUMMARY - RESEARCH EDUCATION COMPONENT The Northwestern ADRC, and the Mesulam Center within which it operates, have a solid tradition of mentoring and training doctoral candidates, post-doctoral fellows and junior faculty in an interactive multidisciplinary setting that provides research training through immersive activities and breadth of knowledge and skills through a significant array of didactic educational modalities related to aging and AD/ADRD. During the past cycle, the Research Education Component (REC) of the Northwestern ADRC has accrued much experience and provided research education in aging and AD/ADRD to a large number of trainees. In the next cycle, the overall goal of the Northwestern ADRC REC will be to optimize the training of a workforce to meet the nation’s biomedical, behavioral and clinical needs in aging and AD/ADRD. The REC will have a broad mandate that will interact with the activities of all other ADRC components and will be guided by the following goals: 1) Provide cross-disciplinary research education for three research associates and junior faculty per year (REC Scholars) through innovative multidisciplinary mechanisms designed to bridge the gap between clinical and basic research experience in aging and AD/ADRD, with a stipend to provide time for training. 2) Provide research education training for at least two REC Affiliates per year, similar to the training provided to REC Scholars, but without a stipend. 3) Provide immersive research experiences and didactic training for at least five students per year at various levels of education, with concentration on underrepresented minorities, as a means of enhancing the pipeline for the future workforce in AD/ADRD. In keeping with the overall theme of our ADRC, the REC program will emphasize the heterogeneity of brain aging and dementia so that basic scientists are exposed to the complexity of the clinical presentations and translate clinical findings into mechanistic studies, while clinicians appreciate the heterogeneity of the underlying biological phenomena and translate basic findings into clinical research. The REC will be leveraged by the extensive infrastructure of the Northwestern Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (NUCATS), with an extensive array of programs, including courses in Responsible Conduct of Research (RCR), and the Northwestern University Graduate School, including the Northwestern University Interdepartmental Neuroscience Program (NUIN), and the McGaw Medical Center of Northwestern Feinberg School of Medicine, for diversity recruitment. REC will also organize the curriculum for didactic training modalities and will review the background and career aspirations of trainees in order to ensure that clinicians become exposed to basic research and basic researchers become exposed to clinical realities.

项目摘要-研究教育部分 西北ADRC及其运作的Mesulam中心有着坚实的指导传统 和培训博士候选人，博士后研究员和初级教师在一个互动的多学科 通过沉浸式活动以及广泛的知识和技能提供研究培训的环境 通过一系列与老龄化和AD/ADRD相关的教学教育模式。在过去 西北ADRC的研究教育部分（REC）已经积累了许多经验 并为大量学员提供老龄化和AD/ADRD方面的研究教育。在下一个周期中， 西北部ADRC REC的总体目标是优化劳动力培训，以满足国家 生物医学、行为学和临床需求以及AD/ADRD。区域经济委员会将拥有广泛的授权， 与所有其他ADRC组件的活动相互作用，并将遵循以下目标： 1)每年为三名研究助理和初级教师提供跨学科的研究教育 (REC学者）通过创新的多学科机制，旨在弥合差距之间 在老龄化和AD/ADRD方面的临床和基础研究经验，并提供培训时间的津贴。 2)每年为至少两名REC附属机构提供研究教育培训，类似于培训 提供给REC学者，但没有津贴。 3)每年为至少五名学生提供沉浸式研究体验和教学培训， 教育水平，重点是代表性不足的少数群体，作为加强 为AD/ADRD未来的劳动力提供渠道。 为了与我们ADRC的总体主题保持一致，REC计划将强调大脑的异质性， 使基础科学家能够接触到临床表现的复杂性， 将临床发现转化为机制研究，而临床医生则欣赏 并将基本发现转化为临床研究。REC将被利用 通过西北临床和转化科学研究所（NUCATS）的广泛基础设施， 拥有广泛的课程，包括负责任的研究行为（RCR）课程，以及 西北大学研究生院，包括西北大学跨部门 神经科学计划（NUIN）和西北范伯格医学院的McGaw医学中心， 进行多元化招聘。REC还将组织教学培训模式的课程并审查 受训人员的背景和职业抱负，以确保临床医生接触到基本的 研究和基础研究人员接触到临床现实。
