Project Summary The future biomedical workforce requires investigators who can conduct and drive innovation in future clinical translational research (CTR) and science (CTS), are skilled in discussing research with those outside their own field, and thus have the ability to critically examine research in both related and unrelated fields. Our established Tufts K12 Program has demonstrated success in training early career faculty who, after training, remain engaged in translational research and science aimed at improving health. We will build upon our training successes through the following specific goals: 1. Train investigators who can serve as domain experts and rigorous researchers, thereby advancing the understanding and rigorous implementation of translational science and research methods, spanning the sectors of translational science across all Tufts CTSI partners 2. Train K12 Scholars in translational science to prepare them to serve as system thinkers, boundary- crossers, and team players 3. Provide K12 Scholars with leadership and management skills needed for sustained translational science careers, and to serve as process innovators, and skilled communicators 4. Mentor newly independent faculty to develop the next generation of mentors to future translational scientists 5. Build a diverse translational science workforce We will achieve these goals by a focused, integrated and collaborative program career development plan that supports skill development in translational science to ensure that Scholars gain proficiency in discourse and discovery across disciplines while they also develop deep expertise within their own domain. The career development plan includes a combination of independent research project, didactic seminars and courses, and mentoring. The core of the plan is a mentoring team that incorporates team science and inclusive excellence to support self-directed learning under the support of a team of individuals with complementary skills in translational science, leadership and management, and stakeholder engagement and communication. We aim to appoint eight scholars. All candidates will have a full-time appointment at one of our partnering institutions. Initial appointments for all candidates will be for two years, with opportunity for an additional third year. The outcome of our training will be a diverse group of independently funded translational investigators across multiple disciplines within Tufts CTSI and who are highly skilled in multi-disciplinary team approaches. These investigators will have the skills required to advance interdisciplinary translational science that will address the complex challenges to improving health.

项目概要 未来的生物医学劳动力需要能够在未来临床中进行和推动创新的研究人员 转化研究（CTR）和科学（CTS），善于与自己以外的人讨论研究 领域，因此有能力批判性地审查相关和不相关领域的研究。我们的 塔夫茨大学 K12 项目在培训早期职业教师方面取得了成功，他们在接受培训后， 继续从事旨在改善健康的转化研究和科学。我们将在我们的基础上再接再厉 通过以下具体目标实现培训成功： 1. 培养能够成为领域专家和严谨研究人员的研究者，从而推进 理解并严格实施转化科学和研究方法，跨越 所有塔夫茨 CTSI 合作伙伴的转化科学领域 2. 培训 K12 转化科学学者，使他们成为系统思考者、边界思考者 交叉者和团队合作者 3. 为K12学者提供可持续转化科学所需的领导和管理技能 职业生涯，并成为流程创新者和熟练的沟通者 4. 指导新独立教师，培养下一代未来转化导师 科学家 5. 建立一支多元化的转化科学队伍 我们将通过一个重点突出、综合和协作的职业发展计划来实现这些目标 支持转化科学的技能发展，以确保学者能够熟练掌握话语和知识 跨学科的发现，同时他们也在自己的领域内发展深厚的专业知识。职业生涯 发展计划包括独立研究项目、教学研讨会和课程的组合，以及 指导。该计划的核心是一个指导团队，将团队科学和包容性卓越结合起来， 在具有互补技能的个人团队的支持下支持自主学习 转化科学、领导力和管理以及利益相关者的参与和沟通。 我们的目标是任命八名学者。所有候选人都将在我们的合作伙伴之一获得全职预约 机构。所有候选人的初次任命为期两年，还有机会获得第三次任命 年。我们培训的结果将是由独立资助的多元化转化研究人员组成 塔夫茨 CTSI 内跨多个学科，并且精通多学科团队方法。 这些研究人员将具备推进跨学科转化科学所需的技能， 应对改善健康的复杂挑战。
