Institutional Career Development Core

匹兹堡大学KL2临床和转化科学(CTS)学者计划的目的是 通过让学者沉浸在多学科研究中，提供基于能力的个性化培训 在从概念化到研究的过程中提供指导和紧张体验的团队 完成了。我们还将帮助CTS学者开发和提交有竞争力的资助申请，以过渡到 独立调查人员。为了发展和推广CTS学者计划，我们将利用 卫生科学六学院，特别是卫生科学研究所的强大研究培训环境 临床研究教育(ICRE)，拥有由多个学位组成的强大培训基础设施 以及职业发展计划，以满足年轻调查人员在职业生涯早期阶段的需求。这个 ICRE还维持着一个指导网络，其中包括来自全校的371名高级研究人员 愿意为我们的学者担任导师。KL2在开发临床和 翻译科学家，其中许多人已经处于领导地位。这个KL2是一个独特的计划， 独特的元素在大学的其他机构K奖项中找不到，包括对个性化的关注 核心能力、多学科团队科学、不同学科和研究经验方面的培训， 有针对性的研讨会，并强调翻译研究的整个范围。我们的近期目标 对于拟议的CTS学者计划：招募在以下领域具有出色培训的杰出学者 内容领域在他们研究生涯的早期；培训学者以严格的研究方法进行 翻译研究；提高拨款撰写、团队科学、领导力、利益相关者参与以及 企业家精神；指导学者提出重要的翻译研究问题并实施 研究项目以回答这些问题；并确保密切指导研究人员的职业发展。我们的长- 学期目标是：确保学者按时完成他们的翻译研究；帮助 学者利用这些研究提出大型项目并获得独立资金；促进学者的 有能力担任翻译科学的导师和领导者；培养自我照顾的弹性和技能，以便 学者们保持着成功的研究生涯。我们的目标是招募一批不同的学者，支持他们 在他们的职业生涯中，评估和跟踪他们随着时间的推移而取得的成功。

The purpose of the University of Pittsburgh KL2 Clinical and Translational Science (CTS) Scholars Program is to provide individualized competency-based training by immersing scholars in multidisciplinary research teams that will provide mentoring and intense experiences in the conduct of research from conceptualization to completion. We will also help CTS scholars develop and submit competitive grant applications to transition to independent investigators. To develop and promote the CTS scholars program we will take advantage of the strong research training environment in the six Schools of the Health Sciences, especially the Institute for Clinical Research Education (ICRE), which has a robust training infrastructure comprised of multiple degree and career-development programs tailored to the needs of young investigators at every early career stage. The ICRE also maintains a mentoring network, which includes 371 senior researchers from across the University willing to serve as mentors to our Scholars. The KL2 has been highly successful in developing clinical and translational scientists, of which many are already in leadership positions. This KL2 is a distinct program with unique elements not found in other institutional K awards at the University, including a focus on individualized training in core competencies, multidisciplinary team science, diverse disciplines and research experiences, targeted seminars, and an emphasis on the entire spectrum of translational research. Our immediate objectives for the proposed CTS Scholars program are to: recruit outstanding scholars with excellent training in their content areas early in their research careers; train scholars in rigorous research methods to conduct translational research; enhance skills in grant writing, team science, leadership, stakeholder engagement, and entrepreneurship; guide scholars in asking important translational research questions and implementing research projects to answer them; and ensure close mentoring to guide research career development. Our long- term objectives will be to: ensure that Scholars complete their translational research studies on time; help scholars use these studies to propose large-scale projects and obtain independent funding; facilitate scholars' ability to serve as mentors and leaders in translational science; develop resiliency and skills at self-care so that Scholars maintain a successful research career. Our goal is to recruit a diverse pool of Scholars, support them throughout their career, and evaluate and track their success over time.
