MOREHOUSE CCRE PARTICIPANT COORDINATION CORE

这个子项目是许多研究子项目中的一个 由NIH/NCRR资助的中心赠款提供的资源。子项目和 研究者（PI）可能从另一个NIH来源获得了主要资金， 因此可以在其他CRISP条目中表示。所列机构为 研究中心，而研究中心不一定是研究者所在的机构。 临床研究基础设施的一个关键要素涉及招募研究参与者的能力。男男性接触者有机会成为临床研究的国家领导者，这与研究不足的少数群体有关。自成立以来，MSM一直坚定地致力于为少数群体服务。这种长期的关系培养了一种信任的纽带，有助于减轻许多少数民族受试者对临床研究的普遍不信任和怀疑。研究参与者协调资源旨在促进招募研究受试者加入各种CCRE方案的过程。此外，资源的一个主要目标是促进 通过提供服务于所有CCRE研究者的集中共享设施，有效实施CCRE研究项目。获得这一资源对初级研究人员特别重要，他们缺乏必要的资金来维持研究人员，而研究人员对最大的研究生产力至关重要。 此外，这一资源的持续提供为维持一支训练有素的研究人员骨干队伍提供了稳定性，这些研究人员通过各个项目供资来源发起和随后结束的议定书周期得以维持。这一共用设施的建立还最大限度地减少了研究活动的重大延误，这种延误往往发生在招聘和培训新人员的重复周期中。与经验丰富的临床研究人员合作的机会对年轻的临床研究人员特别有益，他们可以从集体实践经验和技术技能中获益。CCRE项目总监将担任该共享使用设施的PI。这一疏忽将 提供额外机会，让署长在推行社区重建工程计划时，与有关项目的迫切需要保持紧密联系。该资源还将包括：一名项目经理、50%全职研究参与者招募协调员（与CRC分担费用）和3）一名专门的CCRE研究助理。预计这些领域的熟练人员将大大提高我们CCRE研究人员的研究生产力。

This subproject is one of many research subprojects utilizing the resources provided by a Center grant funded by NIH/NCRR. The subproject and investigator (PI) may have received primary funding from another NIH source, and thus could be represented in other CRISP entries. The institution listed is for the Center, which is not necessarily the institution for the investigator. A critical element of the clinical research infrastructure involves the capacity to recruit research participants. The MSM has an opportunity to emerge as a national leader in clinical research that relates to under-studied minority populations. Since its founding, MSM has maintained a strong commitment to serving minority populations. This longstanding relationship has fostered a bond of trust that has helped to mitigate the common mistrust and suspicion that many minority subjects perceive about clinical research. The Research Participant Coordination Resource is intended to facilitate the process of recruiting research subjects into the various CCRE protocols. In addition, a major objective of the resource is to promote efficient implementation of the CCRE research projects by providing a centralized shared facility that serves all CCRE investigators. The access to this resource is particularly important for junior investigators who lack the funding necessary to maintain research personnel who are essential for maximal research productivity. Moreover, the ongoing availability of this resource provides stability in the maintenance of a cadre of welltrained research personnel who are sustained through cycles of protocols that are initiated and subsequently close with individual project funding sources. The creation of this shared-use facility also minimizes the substantial delays in research activity that often occur with repeated cycles of hiring and training new personnel. The opportunity to work with experienced clinical research personnel is particularly beneficial to young clinical investigators who gain from their collective practical experience as well as technical skills. The CCRE Program Director will serve as the PI of this shared-use facility. This oversight will provide an additional opportunity for the Director to remain in close touch with the exigencies of the CCRE projects as they are implemented. This resource will also include: a Project Manager, 50% FTE Research Participant Recruitment Coordinator (cost sharing with the CRC) and 3) a dedicated CCRE Research Assistant. It is anticipated that the access to skilled personnel in these areas will substantially improve research productivity of our CCRE investigators.
