INBRE III: Hawaii Statewide Research and Education Partnership (HISREP)

描述（由申请人提供）：夏威夷州研究与教育合作伙伴关系（HISREP）由10所大学和社区学院组成，涵盖了夏威夷州几乎所有的高等教育机构。与以往周期一样， 将继续扩大生物医学研究能力，为居住在伙伴机构的各种有前途的本科生、研究生、博士后和初级教员提供资源。HISREP将激发想象力，激发学生在各个发展阶段的兴趣，以追求生物医学研究的职业生涯，拥有强大的动手实验室研究组合，以及多样化的教育和培训课程。通过精心设计的研究开发活动（RDA），HISREP将支持PUI的有前途的初级教师干部进行研究项目，主题重点是“天然产品或健康差异”，目标是制定有竞争力的研究应用程序，以确保研究独立的道路上的校外资金。生物信息学核心将为HISREP研究人员和学生提供生物信息学，信息学，生物统计学和计算工具，援助和建议以及培训和教育活动的扩展菜单。随着时间的推移，HISREP合作伙伴之间形成了一种既定的合作精神，以增加合作研究的机会和共享资源。此外，学生在发展的各个阶段受益于HISREP将被鼓励承担在未来的关键作用，通过参加HISREP培训和教育活动，并提供研究实验室轮换和指导下一代的HISREP学生，从而创造了一个自我永存的研究生涯发展周期。最后，HISREP将由一个负责任和经验丰富的行政团队领导，并得到指导委员会的支持以及外部咨询委员会的专业知识和监督。重大支持药学的UH希洛学院将提供共享行政责任，因为他们成熟和扩展到一个独立的行政校园。总的来说，HISREP已经发展成为一个成熟的合作伙伴联盟，参与广泛的研究机会，以扩大夏威夷州的研究能力。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Hawaii State Research & Education Partnership (HISREP) consists of a network of 10 Universities and community colleges encompassing nearly all of the institutions of higher learning in the State of Hawaii. As in past cycles, HISREP will continue to expand biomedical research capacity by providing resources to a wide spectrum of promising undergraduate students, graduate students, post-docs and junior faculty members residing at partner institutions. HISREP will spark the imagination and inspire the interest of students at all stages of development to pursue careers in biomedical research with a robust portfolio of hands-on-laboratory research, and a diverse menu of education and training sessions. Through a well-crafted Research Development Activity (RDA), HISREP will support a cadre of promising junior faculty members at the PUI's to conduct research projects with a thematic focus of either "Natural Products or Health Disparities", with the goal of formulating competitive research applications to secure extramural funding on a path to research independence. A Bioinformatics Core will provide an expanded menu of bioinformatics, informatics, biostatistical, and computational tools, assistance and advice, as well as training and education activities for HISREP investigators and students alike. An established spirit of cooperation has evolved over time among HISREP partners to increase collaborative research opportunities and share resources. Moreover, students at all stages of development benefiting from HISREP will be encouraged to assume key roles in the future by participating in HISREP training and education activities, and offering research laboratory rotations and mentoring to the next generation of HISREP student, thus creating a self-perpetuating cycle of research career development. Finally, HISREP will be led by a responsible and experienced administration team with support from a Steering Committee as well as expertise and oversight from an External Advisory Committee. Significant support to the UH Hilo College of Pharmacy will be provided to share administrative responsibilities as they mature and expand into an independent administrative campus. Overall, HISREP has matured into a well-developed alliance of partners participating in a broad range of research opportunities to expand research capacity in the state of Hawaii.
