University of New Mexico Clinical and Translational Science Center

在新墨西哥州大学健康科学中心(HSC)建立临床和转化科学中心的提议将促进在一个服务于整个新墨西哥州和美国西南部地区的旗舰机构出现一个变革性的、新颖的和综合的临床和转化学学术中心。该中心将拥有基础设施和整合的资源，以：1)协同多学科和跨学科的临床和转化性研究和研究人员，以催化新知识和技术在患者护理第一线的临床实践中的应用；2)招募、培训和推进训练有素的跨学科研究人员和研究团队，他们在文化敏感性、健康差距和生物技术方面具有实力；3)为创新研究和信息技术创建孵化器；以及4)扩大新墨西哥州大学健康科学中心(HSC)研究人员、执业临床医生和社区之间的现有伙伴关系，以加快研究的发展。我们对CTSC的愿景将我们的基础、临床和转化性研究人员、社区临床医生、临床实践、医疗保健和研究合作者以及行业合作伙伴的努力联系在一起并集中在一起。由于新墨西哥州有很高比例的种族多样性(即西班牙裔和土著美国人)、农村、被剥夺医疗权利和健康状况迥异的人口，新墨西哥州的CTSC可以独一无二地解决这些问题。联合国监测机制反恐小组委员会将利用尚未兑现的机构承诺(至少57 802 262美元)来实现其目标。UNM CTSC拥有对其教职员工的招聘、聘用、受保护时间、期望、晋升和终身教职以及评估的权力。在规划过程中取得的以下成就明显证明了新墨西哥州州立大学儿童研究中心在这些方面的承诺和成效：(1)在负责研究教育、合规和研究职能的新任翻译研究副总裁领导下重组了新任州立大学高管会研究任务，(2)建立了机构资助的K12-LLKE方案，并招聘了5名初级教员，(3)开发了创新的新研究教育方案，(4)运作了一个在功能上扩大的参与者和临床互动资源部分，以满足几项社区研究的需要，包括具有里程碑意义的新的国家儿童研究，(5)重新设计我们对生物医学信息学的机构方法，并开发一个地区性临床数据仓库，供研究人员使用，投资580万美元；以及(6)为CTSC建造和翻新新大楼。此外，UNM的承诺包括承诺为CTSC项目提供1450万美元的新机构资金，以及850万美元的配套资金，用于建设新的空间，为CTSC创造一个实体家园。这项提议的资金将确保这些转变的可持续性和增长，这是支持新墨西哥州大学临床和转化性研究所迫切需要的。

This proposal for a Clinical and Translational Science Center at the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center (HSC) will catalyze the emergence of a transformative, novel, and integrated academic home for clinical and translational science at a flagship institution that serves the entire state of New Mexico and the Southwestern region of the U.S. This center will have the infrastructure and consolidated resources to: 1) synergize multi- and interdisciplinary clinical and translational research and researchers to catalyze the application of new knowledge and techniques to clinical practice at the front lines of patient care; 2) recruit, train, and advance well-trained Interdisciplinary investigators and research teams with strength In cultural sensitivity, health disparity, and biotechnology; 3) create an incubator for innovative research and information technologies; and 4) expand existing partnerships between UNM Health Sciences Center (HSC) researchers, practicing clinicians, and communities to speed the development of research. Our vision of the CTSC links and focuses the efforts of our basic, clinical, and translational investigators, community clinicians, clinical practices, health care and research collaborators, and industry partners. Since New Mexico has a high proportion of ethnically diverse (i.e., Hispanic and Native American), rural, medically disenfranchised, and health-disparate populations, a CTSC in New Mexico can uniquely address these problems. The UNM CTSC will draw upon outstanding Institutional commitment (at least $57,802,262 ) to achieve its goals. The UNM CTSC possesses authority over the recruiting, hiring, protected time, expectations, promotion and tenure, and evaluation of its faculty members. Evidence of the commitment and effectiveness of the UNM CTSC In these pursuits are apparent from the following achievements made during the planning process: (1) reorganization of the UNM HSC research mission under a new Vice President for Translational Research with authority over research education, compliance and research functions, (2) establishment of an institutionally-funded K12-llke program, and recruitment of 5 junior faculty, (3) development of Innovative new research education programs, (4) operation of a functionally expanded Participant and Clinical Interactive Resources component that is serving the needs of several community-based studies, Including the landmark, new National Children's Study, (5) the redesign of our institutional approach to Biomedical Informatics and development of a regional clinical data warehouse that will be available to Investigators using a $5.8 M Investment, and (6) construction and renovation of new buildings for the CTSC. Additionally, UNM's commitment Includes $14.5 M In new institutional funds committed to CTSC programs, and $8.5 M in matching funds to construct new space to create a physical home for the CTSC. Funding of this proposal will assure sustainability and growth of these transformations that Is critically needed to support clinical and translational research at UNM.
