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.

美国国家老龄研究所(NIA)REDI 老年人解决方案企业家技能(SENES)奖学金计划 项目摘要/摘要 大学城科学中心(UCSC)将推出一项为期12个月的身临其境的奖学金项目 为老年人解决方案的企业家奖学金计划(SENES)。Senes是拉丁语的意思 “老年人”，该计划将为博士、医生提供具体和有意义的支持 (MD)，或研究生水平的学生或刚从创业教育毕业的学生 透视。SENES提高了参与者对解决方案的认识和潜在的应用领域 创建者可能与衰老和/或认知和功能影响有关 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历，将提供五个创始人队列(每年； 25在五年内)，有六个月的实践学习，其间还穿插着“年长的解决方案” 第六个月的顶石项目。奖学金的第二个六个月将是一个活跃的和 支持其中一条轨道的技术翻译，全部由医学教师和老龄化支持- 加州大学洛杉矶分校专注的顾问以及经验丰富的商业化团队。 途径1：创业研究人员在其顶峰项目的基础上开始实现里程碑 发展创业，筹集风险投资，申请SBIR。 途径2：非企业家-研究员探索与以下相关的非风险研究项目 翻译研究与开发(R&D)或学术应用的经验教训。 SENES专注于提供曝光率和机会来转换理论 对创业概念(显性知识)的理解转化为应用和理解 以创业为重点的活动(默会知识)。我们将让创始人暴露在衰老的环境中 以实际和物质的方式为他们的解决方案提供市场。据推测，学生 参与该计划将更好地为他们的商业化成功做好准备 努力，导致NIH资助和支持的更成功的科技型初创企业 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估以衡量其成功与否 职业轨迹以及创业素养和创业成功的增加。 SENES奖学金的总体机会是重新定义对传统 创新创业培训，为学术型创业者创造更好的成果。 如果成功，这种模式可能会成为联邦创新和支持的另一个工具 为未来的科学创始人编写程序。
