ABSTRACT / PROJECT SUMMARY A major purpose of a Phase III COBRE is to implement and administer a Pilot Projects Program to select pilot projects that will utilize existing COBRE Core Labs and generate preliminary results in support of proposals to secure extramural funding. This COBRE will continue to develop a highly successful , proven program for supporting Pilot Projects. The Center leadership will solicit pilot project proposals, obtain scientifically rigorous external reviews of all applications, and consulting with our External Advisory Committee, will fund up to four of the most meritorious projects annually. Each selected pilot project award may be funded for a second year subject to satisfactory progress. The Pilot Project Program will also serve as a means to enhance communication and increase collaboration within the developmental biology research community at KUMC. An annual Developmental Biology Symposium is planned to promote participation by a broad range of investigators in the Center and will feature speakers from among the Pilot Project Lead Investigators and their respective Mentors. To assess the impact of the Pilot Grants Program on career development and use this information to modify and improve the program, we will obtain follow-up data on all successful and unsuccessful applicants and determine the impact of pilot grants by measuring the number of publications, level of extramural funding, and promotions in academic rank/responsibility. We will also assess the impact on the broader research community through survey mechanisms and document the degree of collaboration. This information will then be used to improve the Pilot Program through a process of re-evaluation of practices and program modification.

摘要/项目摘要 第三阶段 COBRE 的一个主要目的是实施和管理试点项目计划，以 选择将利用现有 COBRE 核心实验室并产生初步结果的试点项目 支持确保外部资金的建议。 COBRE 将继续开发高度 成功、经过验证的试点项目支持计划。中心领导将征集试点 项目提案，对所有申请进行科学严格的外部审查，并咨询 我们的外部咨询委员会每年将资助最多四个最有价值的项目。每个 选定的试点项目奖可在第二年获得资助，但须取得令人满意的进展。这 试点项目计划还将作为加强沟通和提高 KUMC 发育生物学研究界的合作。每年一届 发育生物学研讨会计划促进广泛的参与 中心的研究人员，并将由试点项目首席研究人员中的发言人发言 以及他们各自的导师。评估试点资助计划对职业发展的影响 并利用这些信息来修改和改进程序，我们将获得所有后续数据 成功和不成功的申请人，并通过衡量试点拨款的影响来确定 出版物数量、校外资助水平以及学术级别/职责的晋升。 我们还将通过调查机制评估对更广泛的研究界的影响 并记录协作程度。这些信息将用于改进试点 通过重新评估实践和计划修改的过程来制定计划。
