Clinical Research Education, Mentoring and Career Development Core

每个DE-CTR机构都有指导教师和促进基础科学和临床学科职业发展的资源，但这些资源的重点和深度因地点而异。这项关键组成部分活动（KCA）的目标之一是整合资源和项目，以指导和教育整个DE-CTR的调查人员。这项KCA的努力将为DE-CTR的能力带来巨大的力量，以改变我们机构的研究和学习环境，促进强大的临床和转化研究项目的发展，并鼓励以团队为基础的研究方法。一个有效和高效的核心专注于教师指导，教育和发展（MED-Core）利用现有的项目和结构。值得注意的是，ctsa支持的南卡罗来纳转化研究所（SCTR）在南卡罗来纳医科大学（MUSC）大力推进了指导和教育项目。我们的KCA将利用SCTR的经验和SC-CTSA的目标，将他们的成功输出到其他机构，在特拉华州开发项目，MUSC通过提供指导和专业知识发挥核心作用。

Each DE-CTR institution has resources for mentoring faculty and fostering career advancement in basic science and clinical disciplines, but the focus and depth of these resources vary across sites. A goal of this Key Component Activity (KCA) is to integrate resources and programs for mentoring and educating investigators across the DE-CTR. Efforts in this KCA will bring tremendous power to the DE-CTR's capabilities to transform the research and learning environments in our institutions to foster development of strong clinical and translational research programs and encourage team-based approaches to research. An effective and efficient core focused on faculty Mentoring, Education and Development (MED-Core) leverages existing programs and structures. Notably, the CTSA-supported South Carolina Translational Research Institute (SCTR) has greatly advanced mentoring and education programs at the Medical University of South Carolina (MUSC). Our KCA will leverage the SCTR experience and the SC-CTSA's goal to export their successes to other institutions to develop programs in Delaware, with MUSC playing a central role by providing guidance and expertise. A successful MED-Core will entice doctoral-qualified clinicians to sustain research efforts, will provide basic scientists support to build translational programs, will coordinate outreach to engage research communities, and will significantly strength clinical and translational research effectiveness. Synergistic interactions among the institutions will foster development of infrastructure for translational research overall and support research teams addressing health care disparities affecting both states. The ability of participating investigators to establish innovative collaborations will be greatly enhanced by coordinated access to the broad and deep expertise within the combined institutions ofthe DE-CTR - expertise that spans clinical practice, health economics and policy, population sciences, public health, biomedical sciences and engineering within a unique combination of institutions that have an established record of effective partnership. The MED-Core will use an innovative approach to build mentoring, education and career development programs guided by the concept that research should be driven by clinical need while being cognizant that the needs of different patient populations vary depending on current understanding of disease state, available treatments/therapies, and the ability to implement effective strategies in the clinic and community. Impactful clinical and translational research depends on a continuous flow of knowledge from bedside to bench to clinic to community, and effective MED-Core programs must establish the skills to manage these dynamics and prepare investigators to work within multidisciplinary teams focused on improving health and healthcare.
