MBRS/SCORE at York College

描述（由申请人提供）：约克学院的愿景和使命声明描述它作为一个机构致力于通过教学，学习，研究和奖学金的学术卓越。学院五年计划的具体目标之一，反映在所有学术部门的计划中，要求创造一个重视和鼓励研究和奖学金的学术环境。学院设想MBRS/SCORE计划作为实现这一目标的主要手段。MBRS/SCORE计划的目标和目的是：1）通过一系列活动加强研究基础设施，改变学院文化，以支持机构研究和研究培训：a）任命，晋升和MBRS/SCORE生物医学学科的教师任期，其中至少75%表现出很高的研究潜力; B）减少生物医学研究学科的所有新教师的工作量，同时每个教师制定学术计划; c）至少75%的MBRS/SCORE生物医学研究学科的教师参加了资助活动，50%的教师在制定提案时获得了帮助，和75%接受启动资金，d）所有MBRS/SCORE教师有足够的实验室设备，仪器和空间; e）约克学院-FDA合作获得至少100万美元的外部资金，用于两个机构的科学家进行的健康相关研究; 2）保持，并在可能的情况下，通过a）将MBRS/SCORE教师的生物医学研究学科数量从6个增加到7个，B）将MBRS/SCORE调查员的比例增加25%; 3）通过a）促进他们实现各自的职业发展计划，B）将他们在专业协会会议上的演讲数量增加25%，c）将他们的同行评审出版物数量增加17%，增加具有竞争力的研究项目的教师数量i）在S 06机制中增加29%，ii）在R-15类型机制中增加25%。为了实现这些目标和目的，约克要求支持12名教师提交MBRS/SCORE提案：9名常客和3名飞行员。常规提案来自5个生物医学学科（生物学、化学、运动科学、心理学、社会工作），试点提案来自3个生物医学学科（环境健康科学、心理学、社会工作）。这些研究者中有6名是继续S 06 PI，2名是目前正在寻求常规S 06资金的试点研究者，4名是新研究者，1名申请常规S 06，3名申请试点资金。通过MBRS/SCORE提供的资源，学院可以继续加强和多样化其研究能力和研究培训能力，并继续为生物医学研究中代表性不足的少数民族提供更多的机会。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): York College's vision and mission statements describe it as an institution committed to academic excellence through teaching, learning, research and scholarship. One of the specific objectives in the College's 5-year plan, which is reflected in the plans of all academic departments, calls for creating an academic environment that values and encourages research and scholarship. The College envisions the MBRS/SCORE Program as a primary means of achieving this objective. The goals and objectives of the MBRS/SCORE Program are: 1) to strengthen the research infrastructure and change the College culture to support institutional research and research training by a series of activities resulting in: a) the appointment, promotion and tenuring of faculty in MBRS/SCORE biomedical disciplines, at least 75% of whom exhibit high potential for research; b) reduced workload for all new faculty in biomedical research disciplines concomitant with each faculty's development of a scholarly plan; c) at least 75% of faculty in MBRS/SCORE biomedical research disciplines participating in grantsmanship activities, 50% obtaining assistance in developing proposals, and 75% receiving start-up funding, d) all MBRS/SCORE faculty having adequate laboratory equipment, instrumentation and space; e) the York College-FDA Collaborations obtaining at least $1m in external funding for health-related research pursued by scientists from both institutions; 2) to maintain, and where possible, increase the participation of investigator-initiated research by a) increasing the number of biomedical research disciplines with MBRS/SCORE faculty from 6 to 7, b) increasing the percentage of MBRS/SCORE investigators by 25%; 3) to strengthen the research competitiveness of MBRS/SCORE faculty by a) facilitating them in meeting their respective career development plans, b) increasing their number of presentations at professional society meetings by 25%, c) increasing their number of peer-reviewed publications by 17%, increasing the number of faculty with competitive research programs i) by 29% in the S06 mechanism and by ii) 25% in R-15 type mechanisms. To achieve these goals and objectives, York requests support for the 12 faculty submitting MBRS/SCORE proposals: 9 regulars and 3 pilots. The regular proposals come from 5 biomedical disciplines (biology, chemistry, movement science, psychology, social work) and the pilot proposals come from 3 biomedical disciplines (environmental health science, psychology, social work). Six of these investigators are continuing S06 PIs, 2 are current pilot investigators seeking regular S06 funding, 4 are new investigators with 1 applying for a regular S06 and 3 applying for pilot funding. With the resources provided by MBRS/SCORE, the College can continue to strengthen and diversify its research capability and research training capability, and continue to provide expanded opportunities for underrepresented minorities in biomedical research.
