FIU-RCMI调查员开发核心(IDC) 摘要 扩大训练有素的研究人员队伍，致力于解决 美国国内的健康差距是当务之急。特别是，来自健康领域的更多研究人员 需要差异人口来提高我们培养对健康根本原因的新见解的能力 在这方面，我们将继续努力解决不同的文化差距，并找出创新的、与文化相关的解决方案。侦查员发展的目的 核心(IDC)是通过促进和促进健康差距研究来支持FIU-RCMI的总体目标 为早期调查人员(ESIS)提供指导、培训和研究机会，特别是那些 来自生物医学、行为、人口和临床研究劳动力中代表性不足的人群。 对于拟议的续签申请，国际数据中心将在其已建立的试点项目的基础上进行改进，并 为有前途的Esis提供辅导计划，帮助提升他们的职业发展。国际数据中心将为esis提供 三阶段支持系统，包括试点前、试点项目和试点后阶段， 伴随着3个具体目标：目标1.每年招募并建立一个有前途的Esis队列(预试 阶段)通过：a)提供健康差距研究和赠款撰写培训；b)征集类似R03的健康 以差异为重点的试点申请；c)提供严格的NIH式同行审查程序，在该程序中，所有 申请者得到建设性的反馈；d)为没有资金的申请者提供持续的赠款撰写支持； 以及e)评价申请和同行审查程序的公平性和透明度。目标2.提供 在实施1-2年试点项目(试点)期间，向教育系统的每个队列提供多方面的支持 阶段)通过：a)协助每个群体熟悉大学的研究程序和实施 挑战；b)确保所有项目符合适用的联邦研究政策、法律和法规；c) 监测所有项目的进展情况；d)在同行审查的试点研究产出中支持每个环境安全倡议 出版物、演示文稿和赠款提案；以及e)每月与专业人员举行队列会议 发展性课程。目标3.为EIS(试行前、试行和试行后)提供指导计划 阶段)通过：a)协助教育信息系统寻找潜在的导师，并为他们提供关于以下方面的培训 建立和维护辅导关系；b)为导师提供辅导和相关的 培训；以及c)监测指导团队的有效性。指导计划将向所有Esis开放 对健康差距研究感兴趣。到五年期末，该方案将导致 至少100人--来自各种学术和研究背景--谁将受益 参加国际数据中心提供的培训、指导和支持。在这100人中的17到20人之间 ESIS将获得试点资金，并已成功完成其试点项目。所有的伊希斯人都将获得健康 差异、指导和授予写作培训，以帮助支持和准备下一批训练有素的 致力于打击和解决美国的健康差距的研究人员。

FIU-RCMI Investigator Development Core (IDC) Abstract Expanding the cadre of well-trained researchers committed to addressing the complex underlying drivers of health disparities within the United States is an urgent priority. In particular, more researchers from health disparity populations are needed to improve our capacity to cultivate new insights into the root causes of health disparities and to identify innovative, culturally relevant solutions. The purpose of the Investigator Development Core (IDC) is to support the overall goals of FIU-RCMI by fostering and promoting health disparities research with mentorship, training, and research opportunities for early-stage investigators (ESIs), particularly those from populations underrepresented in the biomedical, behavioral, population, and clinical research workforce. For the proposed renewal application, the IDC will build on and improve its established pilot project and mentoring program for promising ESIs to help enhance their career development. The IDC will provide ESIs a three-phase support system, comprised of Pre-Pilot, Pilot Project, and Post-Pilot phases with the accompanying 3 Specific Aims: Aim 1. Annually recruit and establish a cohort of promising ESIs (Pre-Pilot Phase) by: a) providing health disparities research and grant writing training; b) soliciting R03-like health disparities-focused pilot applications; c) providing a rigorous NIH-like peer-review process, in which all applicants receive constructive feedback; d) providing ongoing grant writing support for unfunded applicants; and e) evaluating the application and peer-review process for equity and transparency. Aim 2. Provide multifaceted support to each cohort of ESIs during the implementation of their 1-2 year pilot project (Pilot Phase) by: a) assisting each cohort in navigating university research procedures and implementation challenges; b) ensuring all projects comply with applicable Federal research policies, laws, and regulations; c) monitoring the progress of all projects; d) supporting each ESI in pilot research outputs of peer-reviewed publications, presentations, and grant proposals; and e) providing Monthly Cohort Meetings with a professional development curriculum. Aim 3. Provide a mentoring program for ESIs (Pre-Pilot, Pilot Project and Post-Pilot Phases) by: a) assisting ESIs with identifying potential mentors and providing them with training about establishing and maintaining mentoring relationships; b) providing mentors with mentorship and related training; and c) monitoring mentoring team effectiveness. The mentoring program will be open to all ESIs interested in health disparities research. By the end of the five-year period, the program will result in a minimum of 100 ESIs – from a wide variety of academic and research backgrounds – who will have benefited from participating in the trainings, mentorship, and support provided by the IDC. Between 17-20 of these 100 ESIs will receive pilot funding and have successfully completed their pilot projects. All ESIs will receive health disparities, mentoring, and grant writing training to help bolster and prepare the next cadre of well-trained, committed researchers to combat and address health disparities in the United States.
