DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application for a CTSA planning grant will allow the emergence of a transformative, novel, and integrated academic home for Clinical and Translational Science at the University of New Mexico Health Sciences Center. The resulting center will have the resources to: (1) recruit, train and advance well-trained, inter-disciplinary investigators and research teams, (2) create an incubator for innovative research and information technologies; and (3) synergize multi-disciplinary clinical and translational research and researchers to catalyze the application of new knowledge and techniques to clinical practice. The UNM HSC has recently consolidated its primary research programs into five "Signature Programs in Biomedical Research" that represent strength in bench to bedside to practice and community and that incorporate the expertise of basic scientists, translational and clinical investigators, educational leaders, and strong mentors. The goal of the Signature Programs to synergize research programs that integrate clinical and translational science across multiple departments, schools, hospitals, and research institutes within the UNM HSC will be realized through the formation of a new Clinical and Translational Science Center (CTSC). The CTSC will provide needed educational and training opportunities, as well as infrastructure and administration, for clinical investigation that these Signature Programs will utilize to translate their activities into practice. The CTSA will take advantage of existing strengths by incorporating the activities of the CTSC into NIH-funded General Clinical Research Center efforts, the NIH-Roadmap Screening Center, VA strengths, and two NIH-fundedP30 centers at UNM. Community, industry and healthcare partnerships will be strengthened as we foster new and innovative mechanisms of training and research. The UNM CTSC will possess authority over the recruiting, hiring, protected time, expectations, promotion and tenure, and evaluation of its faculty members, who will be culled from all schools within the UNM HSC. The clinical and educational efforts of CTSC faculty will be housed in a common facility with easy access to classroom, laboratory, and administrative support .resources. The ultimate vision of the proposed CTSC is to achieve an effective, interdisciplinary, and vertical integration of all basic science, translational and clinical research and training. Educational degrees and career development programs will target terminal degree recipients in order to provide the tools and training to conduct NIH-funded clinical and translational investigations. The planning award will provide UNM an opportunity to develop a comprehensive clinical research curriculum beginning during pre-doctoral education and extending into the first several years of a faculty member's career. Moreover, clinical research efforts will include Phase I and II translational activities, and will use unique resources such as RiosNet and Project ECHO, to perform community- and practice-based research in rural areas among diverse cultures.

描述（由申请人提供）：这份 CTSA 规划拨款申请将允许在新墨西哥大学健康科学中心建立一个变革性的、新颖的、综合性的临床和转化科学学术中心。由此产生的中心将拥有资源：（1）招募、培训和培养训练有素的跨学科研究人员和研究团队，（2）创建创新研究和信息技术的孵化器； (3) 协同多学科临床和转化研究及研究人员，促进新知识和新技术在临床实践中的应用。新墨西哥大学 HSC 最近将其主要研究项目整合为五个“生物医学研究标志性项目”，这些项目代表了从实验室到临床到实践和社区的实力，并融合了基础科学家、转化和临床研究人员、教育领导者和强有力的导师的专业知识。标志性项目的目标是协同研究项目，整合 UNM HSC 内多个部门、学校、医院和研究机构的临床和转化科学，这将通过建立新的临床和转化科学中心 (CTSC) 来实现。 CTSC 将为临床研究提供所需的教育和培训机会以及基础设施和管理，这些标志性项目将利用这些机会将其活动转化为实践。 CTSA 将利用现有优势，将 CTSC 的活动纳入 NIH 资助的普通临床研究中心工作、NIH 路线图筛选中心、VA 优势以及 NIH 资助的新墨西哥州两个 P30 中心。随着我们培育新的创新培训和研究机制，社区、行业和医疗保健伙伴关系将得到加强。 UNM CTSC 将拥有对其教职人员的招聘、雇佣、保护时间、期望、晋升和任期以及评估的权力，这些教职人员将从 UNM HSC 内的所有学校中挑选出来。 CTSC 教员的临床和教育工作将在一个公共设施中进行，可以轻松访问教室、实验室和行政支持资源。拟议 CTSC 的最终愿景是实现所有基础科学、转化和临床研究与培训的有效、跨学科和垂直整合。教育学位和职业发展计划将针对最终学位获得者，以便提供工具和培训来进行 NIH 资助的临床和转化研究。该规划奖将为新墨西哥大学提供一个开发综合临床研究课程的机会，该课程从博士前教育开始一直延伸到教员职业生涯的最初几年。此外，临床研究工作将包括一期和二期转化活动，并将利用 RiosNet 和 Project ECHO 等独特资源，在不同文化的农村地区开展基于社区和实践的研究。
