Research Infrastructure Core

研究基础设施核心(RIC)项目摘要 塔斯基吉大学生物医学研究中心(TU CBR/RCMI)的目标 研究基础设施核心(RIC)旨在建立和维护有益的研究 环境，并最大限度地提高理工大学生物医学研究的影响和质量。我们计划 通过以下方式实现这一点：1)获取和维护共享设备和设施，2)提供 通过培训和提供有关设备、方法、 生物信息学和生物统计学，以及3)生物伦理和负责任的培训和服务 进行研究。TU RIC的目标和活动与其他组织的目标和活动是相结合的 CBR/RCMI的组成部分(行政、调查员发展和社区 项目核心)并与外部资源(CCTS、RTRN、RCMAR)协同工作 提高TU在少数民族健康与健康差距研究中的地位并促进 TU初级教师的专业发展。而TU RIC则优先考虑 在本申请中提出的研究项目和试验项目通过直接支持， RIC中包括的基础设施条款对来自不同领域的所有调查人员开放 跨TU的部门和学科。此外，在获取和维护研究的同时， 设备，RIC还为专业人员制定了关键设备的标准操作程序 应用程序，为用户提供内部或外部培训机会，以加强严谨和 可重复性，执行和促进专门的设备校准，并监督 用于生物医学研究的共享设施的安全协议。总体而言，通过这些 TU RIC将使TU CBR/RCMI实现其研究能力建设的使命 并同时推进生物医学研究人员的专业发展 塔斯基吉大学。

RESEARCH INFRASTRUCTURE CORE (RIC) PROJECT SUMMARY The goals of Tuskegee University Center for Biomedical Research RCMI (TU CBR/RCMI) Research Infrastructure Core (RIC) are to establish and maintain conducive research environment, and to maximize the impact and quality of biomedical research at TU. We plan to achieve this by: 1) Acquiring and maintaining shared equipment and facilities, 2) Providing methodological and analytical support through training and services on equipment, methods, bioinformatics and biostatistics, and 3) Training and service in bioethics and responsible conduct of research. The goals and activities of TU RIC are integrated with those of the other components of CBR/RCMI (Administrative, Investigator Development and Community Engagement cores) and with external resources (CCTS, RTRN, RCMAR) to synergistically advance the standings of TU in minority health and health disparities research and to promote the professional development of TU junior faculty. While TU RIC prioritizes the productivity of Research Projects and Pilot Projects proposed in this application through direct support, the infrastructure provisions included under RIC are open to all investigators from various departments and disciplines across TU. Moreover, while acquiring and maintaining research equipment, RIC also develops standard operating procedures for key equipment for specialized applications, provides internal or external training opportunities for users to strengthen rigor and reproducibility, performs and facilitates specialized equipment calibrations, and oversees the safety protocols for the shared facilities used for biomedical research. Overall, through these activities, TU RIC will enable TU CBR/RCMI achieve its mission of research capacity building and concurrently advance the professional development of biomedical research faculty in Tuskegee University.
