Clinical Research Education, Mentoring and Career Development Core

每个DE-CTR机构都有在基础科学和临床学科指导教师和促进职业发展的资源，但这些资源的重点和深度因地点而异。这一关键组成部分活动(KCA)的一个目标是整合资源和方案，以指导和教育整个DE-CTR的调查人员。这一KCA的努力将极大地增强DE-CTR的能力，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性研究项目的发展，并鼓励基于团队的研究方法。一个专注于教师指导、教育和发展(MED-Core)的有效和高效的核心利用现有的计划和结构。值得注意的是，CTSA支持的南卡罗来纳州翻译研究所(SCTR)大大推进了南卡罗来纳州医科大学(MUSC)的指导和教育项目。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，以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。 一个成功的MED-Core将吸引具有博士资格的临床医生持续进行研究工作，将为建立翻译计划提供基本的科学家支持，将协调外展以参与研究社区，并将显著增强临床和翻译研究的有效性。各机构之间的协同互动将促进整体转化研究基础设施的发展，并支持研究团队解决影响两个州的医疗保健差异。参与调查人员建立创新合作的能力将大大增强，因为它们协调地获得了德语-CTR联合机构内的广泛和深入的专门知识--这些专门知识横跨临床实践、卫生经济和政策、人口科学、公共卫生、生物医学科学和工程学，在一个独特的具有有效伙伴关系记录的机构组合中。 MED-Core将使用一种创新的方法来建立指导、教育和职业发展计划，该计划的指导理念是研究应由临床需求驱动，同时认识到不同患者群体的需求取决于对疾病状态的当前了解、可用的治疗/治疗以及在临床和社区实施有效策略的能力。有效的临床和转化性研究依赖于从床边到工作台、从诊所到社区的持续知识流动，有效的MED-Core计划必须建立管理这些动态的技能，并使研究人员准备好在专注于改善健康和医疗保健的多学科团队中工作。

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.
