ABSTRACT The overall goal the Buffalo Translational Consortium (BTC) Translational Workforce Development component is training and development of an interprofessional, interdisciplinary, and ethnically/racially/culturally diverse clinical and translational workforce with skills to meet the health care needs of our community, the region and the nation. The KL2 Mentored Career Development Program (KL2 Program) will engage talented and motivated scholars in any health science discipline (including medicine, nursing, dental, pharmacy, public health) to join the clinical and translational science workforce to develop new diagnostic, preventive, and therapeutic interventions for diseases with emphasis on addressing health disparities affecting our communities. We will train scholars to use an interdisciplinary approach to translate basic and clinical advances into improved healthcare. We will develop an ethnic/racial/culturally diverse workforce to overcome the growing divide between clinical and research careers, and to address health inequities in communities such as Buffalo. Buffalo is the 3rd poorest city in the country, where over 50% of its population belongs to traditional underrepresented [(AA (39%), HA (11%), NA/PI (0.8%)] (2010 Census) and/or underserved minorities. Refugees represent over 5% of the Buffalo population. The goal of this KL2 Program is to train at least four junior faculty/physician scientist scholars by supporting them for two years with the expectation that, with training and mentor assistance, they secure an additional three years of individual funding through K awards to complete the five-year training program. The program is complemented by and integrated with an institutionally funded Dean's Scholars program, which allows us to train 6 additional scholars under the same terms. There will be 5 scholars in the program in Years 1 and 2 and 10 thereafter. We will focus on recruiting individuals from underrepresented backgrounds in health science professions. The program has four specific aims: 1) Attract, engage, and train in state-of-the-art clinical and translational science and a broad range of health science disciplines talented and motivated early career investigators who come from underrepresented groups or disadvantaged backgrounds and/or bring new perspectives to health disparities challenges; 2) Develop comprehensive mentoring programs for mentors and trainees tailored to individual needs; 3) Promote pathways to independence by fostering inter-professional and inter-disciplinary training for scholars to master team science concepts; and 4) Empower our Community of Scholars to collaborate and identify new areas of engagement with other CTSA hubs. The program will train and develop KL2 Scholars' professional skills and facilitate a seamless transition to their next career level within the clinical and translational workforce pipeline. KL2 Scholars, as leaders of the CTSA Community of Scholars, will have the opportunity to give back by providing mentoring and guidance in the discipline to students and peers from our community, the region, and nationwide through the CTSA consortium.

抽象的 布法罗翻译联盟 (BTC) 翻译劳动力发展部分的总体目标 是跨专业、跨学科和民族/种族/文化多元化的人才的培训和发展 拥有满足我们社区、地区和地区医疗保健需求技能的临床和转化人员队伍 国家。 KL2 指导式职业发展计划（KL2 计划）将吸引有才华和积极进取的人 任何健康科学学科（包括医学、护理、牙科、药学、公共卫生）的学者加入 临床和转化科学团队开发新的诊断、预防和治疗方法 针对疾病的干预措施，重点是解决影响我们社区的健康差异。我们将 培训学者使用跨学科方法将基础和临床进展转化为改进的 卫生保健。我们将培养一支民族/种族/文化多元化的劳动力队伍，以克服之间日益扩大的鸿沟 临床和研究职业，并解决布法罗等社区的健康不平等问题。布法罗是第三个 该国最贫穷的城市，超过 50% 的人口属于传统代表性不足的人 [(AA (39%)， HA (11%)、NA/PI (0.8%)]（2010 年人口普查）和/或服务不足的少数群体。难民占总人口的5%以上 水牛人口。 该KL2计划的目标是通过支持他们来培训至少四名初级教师/医师科学家学者 两年，期望通过培训和导师的帮助，他们能获得额外的三年 通过 K 奖获得个人资助来完成五年培训计划。方案已补充 通过并与机构资助的院长学者计划相结合，该计划使我们能够培训另外 6 名 同等条件下的学者。第一年、第二年以及之后的第十年将有 5 名学者参与该项目。我们 将重点招募来自健康科学专业背景代表性不足的个人。这 该计划有四个具体目标：1）吸引、参与和培训最先进的临床和转化科学 以及广泛的健康科学学科才华横溢、积极进取的早期职业研究人员，他们来自 代表性不足的群体或弱势背景和/或为健康差异带来新的视角 挑战； 2) 根据导师和学员的个人需求制定全面的指导计划； 3）通过促进学者的跨专业和跨学科培训，促进独立之路 掌握团队科学概念； 4) 使我们的学者社区能够合作并发现新的 与其他 CTSA 中心的合作领域。该计划将培训和发展 KL2 学者的专业技能 并促进临床和转化人员队伍中无缝过渡到下一个职业水平 管道。 KL2学者作为CTSA学者社区的领导者，将有机会回馈社会 通过为来自我们社区、地区和社区的学生和同龄人提供学科方面的辅导和指导 通过 CTSA 联盟在全国范围内推广。
