Multidisciplinary Clinical and Translational Science (MCTS) Program (UL1)

该CTSA计划的总体目标是创建一个 整合，高效，积极主动的学术之家，以促进，促进和改造临床和 NU（NU）及其附属临床机构的转化研究。该计划包括 参加了六所NU学校和所有四个附属医院。本申请的重点是 新的NU临床和转化科学（NU-CATS）研究所，一个物理和智力的家 为它的领导人，成员教员，和研究实习生。推动这一计划的主要原则是， 教学，研究发展和基础设施是一个综合和重点研究 组织可以推动研究成果转化为改善病人护理和人口 比分散的临床和转化方法更快，更有效地 这是目前大多数学术机构所做的研究。该方案的主要概念是： 协作-在NU内部，在我们的当地社区，并在CTSA;整合-人， 创新-促进创新研究和新的合作方法; 转型-开放的变化，由我们的研究人员和我们的社区的需求所决定; 建立联系-分享想法和项目;交流-改善整个联合国系统的交流 组织和社区;测量和跟踪结果。应用程序有六个 具体目标：目标1：促进孵化新的研究思路和项目;目标2：提供新的和 扩大-基础设施和必要的资源，以开展以人口为基础，以病人为导向， 转化研究，并将其与现有资源相结合，以改善对研究的支持 目标3：提供新的和增强的机构金融服务 支持和新的治理结构，以确保 新研究所;目标4：培养和培训一批多样化的临床和转化研究人员;目标 5：衡量报告所述新举措和研究成果的影响和成果 应用;目标6：与国家CTSA计划中的其他机构合作，分享最佳成果 实践，并提高所有新的翻译研究的整体影响和成果 为响应这一RFA而创建的组织和方案。学院领导选择了指导 研究所及其职能部门有经验、权威和承诺的时间， 管理临床和转化研究的新家园。该计划受益于 优秀的研究环境和巨大的机构支持。

The overall goal of this CTSA program is to create an integrated, efficient, and proactive academic home to promote, facilitate, and transform clinical and translational research at NU (NU) and its affiliated clinical institutions. The program includes participation by six NU schools and all four of its affiliated hospitals. The focal point of this application is the new NU Clinical and Translational Sciences (NU-CATS) Institute, a physical and intellectual home for its leaders, member faculty, and research trainees. The major principle driving this program of teaching, research development, and infrastructure is that an integrated and focused research organization can propel the translation of research findings into improved patient care and population health more rapidly and effectively than the decentralized approaches to clinical and translational research that now exist in most academic institutions. Key concepts underlying this program are: Collaboration - inside NU, within our local community, and across CTSAs; Integration – of people, resources, and ideas; Innovation - promoting innovative research and new approaches to collaboration; Transformation - openness to change as dictated by the needs of our researchers and our community; Networking - sharing of ideas and projects; Communication - improving communication throughout the organization and the community; Measurement and tracking of outcomes. The application has six Specific Aims: Aim 1: Promote incubation of new research ideas and projects; Aim 2: Provide new - and expanded - infrastructure and resources necessary to conduct population-based, patient-oriented, and translational research and integrate these with existing resources for the improved support of research across the institution and in the community; Aim 3: Provide new and enhanced institutional financial support and a new governance structure that will assure the immediate impact and rapid success of the new Institute; Aim 4: Inspire and train a diverse new cadre of clinical and translational researchers; Aim 5: Measure the impact and outcomes of the new initiatives and research findings described in the application; Aim 6: Collaborate with other institutions in the national CTSA Program, share best practices, and improve the overall impact and outcomes of all the new translational research organizations and programs created in response to this RFA. The faculty leaders chosen to direct the Institute and its functional components have the experience, authority, and committed time to administer the new home for clinical and translational research. The Program benefits from an outstanding research environment and tremendous institutional support.
