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 技术和行为健康中心（CTBH）的核心试点项目旨在支持 新的试点项目，提供相当大的承诺，有很大的影响领域，作为该中心的一部分， 开展活动，支持发展和评价治疗艾滋病的尖端技术应用 物质使用障碍自最初的资助期以来，在过去的9年里，试点核心项目共颁发了32个 创新试点（在竞争的基础上，以NIH审查过程为模型，进行盲同行审查）。 这些项目来自14个申请请求（每年1-2个），其中包括开放的 招标人发起的项目招标和有针对性的申请请求（RFAs）侧重于 合作项目汇集了来自不同研究学科的专业知识团队，以解决 与物质使用相关的主题，包括行为健康，计算机科学，工程，数据 用户界面/用户体验（UI/UX）设计。在这些奖项中，Pilot Core 向博士后培训人员颁发了11项试点赠款，向教员级研究人员颁发了3项试点赠款， 赠款金助理教授级初级教师，支持CTBH使命，以培养未来的科学家， 数字健康方法来解决物质使用问题。到目前为止，试点赠款对促进 科学文献，产生了25篇同行评审的出版物，以及20多项资助研究赠款（其中18项 具体涉及物质使用），包括2个NIH K，一个CTN研究，NIH R34，R42和R 01赠款， 以及PCRI，NIDILRR，SAMHSA，基金会和CDC赠款。 在CTBH P30的第二个更新阶段，Pilot Core计划平均支持3-4个飞行员 项目每年继续资助一个新的研究领域的“管道”的发展，然后可以 在试验阶段之后，通过外部供资机制逐步进行更严格的经验性测试。我们计划 继续开展有针对性的RFA进程，在符合P30科学目标的领域进行创新。在 在这一过程中，大约50%的试点供资机会将继续由调查员发起。而且， 大约50%的试点项目将得到支持，以响应有关及时和未充分研究的问题的具体RFA， 推动该领域发展的巨大希望，包括继续支持技术和 行为健康专家和支持CTBH新优先领域的试点。与我们的努力一致， 增加专注于物质使用的科学研究人员的多样性，我们还 致力于增加代表性不足的少数族裔申请人的申请。所有奖项将由 在竞争的基础上提供支持与CTBH附属的各种研究团队的试点项目。的 试点核心主任将建议试点项目资金的接受者在寻求校外的最佳下一步 资助以试点研究成果为基础的一系列研究。
