National Institute on Aging (NIA) REDI Skill for ENtrepreneurs for Elder Solutions (SENES) fellowship program Project Summary/Abstract The University City Science Center (UCSC) will launch a 12-month immersive fellowship, “Skill for ENtrepreneurs for Elder Solutions fellowship program (SENES).” SENES is Latin for “elderly,” and the program will provide specific and meaningful support for PhD, Medical Doctor (MD), or graduate-level students or recent graduates from an entrepreneurial education perspective. SENES raises participants’ awareness and potential application areas of solutions the founders may be developing related to the cognitive and functional impact of aging and/or Alzheimer's Disease and Alzheimer's Disease Related Dementias (AD/ADRD). SENES is a year-long educational experience that will provide a five-founder cohort (annually; 25 over five years) with six months of hands-on learning punctuated with an “elder solutions” capstone project in month six. The second six months of the fellowship will be an active and supported technology translation in one of tracks, all supported by medical faculty and aging- focused advisors as well as the experienced commercialization team at UCSC. Track 1: Entrepreneurial – Fellows build off their capstone project to begin hitting milestones in developing their venture, raising venture capital, applying for SBIR. Track 2: Non-Entrepreneurial – Fellows explore a non-venture research project related to translation of research and development (R&D) or academic applications of lessons learned. SENES has a focus on providing exposure and opportunity to convert the theoretical understanding of entrepreneurial concepts (explicit knowledge) into applied and understood entrepreneurship focused activities (tacit knowledge). We will expose founders to the aging market for their solutions in a practical and material way. It is hypothesized that students participating in the program will be better positioned for success in their commercialization efforts, resulting in more successful technology-based startups from NIH-funded and supported researchers. SENES will also leverage government investment by increasing the likelihood of success of private capital conduct evaluation of fellows over a five-year period to measure career trajectory and increases in entrepreneurial literacy and entrepreneurial success. The overall opportunity for the SENES fellowship is to redefine the thinking about traditional innovation and entrepreneurial training to create better outcomes for academic-based founders. If successful, this model could become another tool in federal innovation and support programming for scientific founders in the future.

国家老龄化研究所（NIA）REDI 老年人解决方案企业家技能（SENES）奖学金计划 项目总结/摘要 大学城科学中心（UCSC）将推出为期12个月的沉浸式奖学金，“技能 老年人解决方案企业家奖学金计划（SENES）。SENES是拉丁语， “老年人”，该计划将提供具体和有意义的支持博士，医生 (MD)，或研究生水平的学生或创业教育的应届毕业生 perspective. SENES提高参与者的认识和解决方案的潜在应用领域 创始人可能正在发展与衰老和/或 阿尔茨海默病和阿尔茨海默病相关痴呆（AD/ADRD）。 SENES是一个为期一年的教育经验，将提供五个创始人队列（每年; 五年以上25人），六个月的实践学习，中间穿插着“老年人解决方案”。 第六个月的顶点项目。第二个六个月的研究金将是一个积极的， 支持技术翻译的轨道之一，所有支持的医疗机构和老龄化- 专注的顾问以及UCSC经验丰富的商业化团队。 轨道1：创业-研究员建立了他们的顶点项目，开始击中里程碑， 发展他们的风险，筹集风险资本，申请SBIR。 轨道2：非创业-研究员探索与以下相关的非风险研究项目 翻译研究和发展（R&D）或学术应用的经验教训。 SENES的重点是提供曝光和机会，以转换理论 创业概念的理解（显性知识）转化为应用和理解 以创业为重点的活动（隐性知识）。我们会让创始人面对衰老 以实际和物质的方式推销他们的解决方案。据推测， 参与该计划将更好地为成功的商业化做好准备 努力，导致更多成功的技术为基础的创业公司从NIH资助和支持 研究人员SENES还将通过增加以下可能性来利用政府投资： 私人资本在五年期间对研究员进行评价，以衡量 职业轨迹以及提高创业素养和创业成功率。 SENES奖学金的总体机会是重新定义对传统文化的思考， 创新和创业培训，为学术型创始人创造更好的成果。 如果成功，这种模式可能成为联邦创新和支持的另一种工具 为未来的科学创始人编程。
