DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Research in Rehabilitation Sciences is critical to health, particularly as relates to aging populations and those with disability. However, rehabilitation science research has lagged behind other areas of biomedical research possibly because of the interdisciplinary nature of practice. As a result, practice in rehabilitation specialties is often based on experience (art so to speak), tradition, case-reports, intuition, and assumption rather than scientifically derived evidence. The reasons for this reality are complex but one of the important factors is a lack of well-trained rehabilitation researchers, especially those who focus on patient-oriented, translational research. Ideally, research training begins in the post-baccalaureate and post- doctoral years. However, many of these potential investigators begin their rehabilitation careers in the clinical trenches, and are mostly motivated to treat patients. The PIs are proposing an intensive grant writing workshop that builds upon the model developed by the Enhancing Rehabilitation Research in the South (ERRIS) workshops. Unlike passive seminars on grant writing, selected mentees will come prepared to complete at least the specific aims for a grant proposal for submission to the NIH or other funding agency. The target audience for this workshop includes junior and mid-level faculty in all rehabilitation research disciplines who are on the cusp of success in NIH-funded or similar research. The PIs will bring together a nationally recognized group of mentors and consultants as faculty. In addition, they will utilize the excellent local resources at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, such as the Cecil Sheps Center for Health Services Research to support the mentorship of mentees. This workshop will provide the expertise and support to be successful at the national level in obtaining research grant support. At the workshop guidance in grant writing, clinical trial design, biostatistics, informatics, collaboration, grantsmanship, budgeting, and career development through lectures and individual consultation will occur. One-on-one mentorship is the centerpiece of this workshop. The PIs will pay particular attention to following up with mentees and their home institution mentorship team after the workshop to maximize the chance for success and thus develop a cadre of well-trained, rehabilitation researchers whose expertise will foster better rehabilitation research design. Finally, they will also work to increase the representation of women and underserved minorities, and disciplines, such as engineers and physiatrists, as rehabilitation researchers.

描述（由申请人提供）：康复科学研究对于健康至关重要，特别是与老龄化人口和残疾人相关的研究。然而，康复科学研究落后于生物医学研究的其他领域，这可能是由于实践的跨学科性质。因此，康复专业的实践通常基于经验（可以说是艺术）、传统、病例报告、直觉和 假设而非科学得出的证据。造成这种现实的原因很复杂，但重要因素之一是缺乏训练有素的康复研究人员，特别是那些专注于以患者为中心的转化研究的人员。理想情况下，研究培训从学士学位后和博士后开始。然而，许多潜在的研究人员都是在临床一线开始他们的康复职业生涯，并且主要是为了治疗患者。 PI 提议举办一个密集的资助写作研讨会，该研讨会以加强南方康复研究 (ERRIS) 研讨会开发的模型为基础。与被动的拨款写作研讨会不同，选定的受训者将准备至少完成提交给 NIH 或其他资助机构的拨款提案的具体目标。本次研讨会的目标受众包括所有康复研究学科的初级和中级教师，他们在 NIH 资助的或类似的研究中处于成功的边缘。 PI 将汇集一批全国公认的导师和顾问作为教员。此外，他们还将利用北卡罗来纳大学教堂山分校当地的优质资源，例如 作为塞西尔谢普斯健康服务研究中心，以支持受训者的指导。该研讨会将提供专业知识和支持，以便在国家层面成功获得研究经费支持。在研讨会上指导拨款写作、临床试验设计、 将通过讲座和个人咨询进行生物统计学、信息学、协作、资助、预算和职业发展。一对一的指导是本次研讨会的核心。 PI 将特别注意在研讨会结束后对学员及其所在机构的指导团队进行跟进，以最大限度地提高成功的机会，从而培养一支训练有素的康复研究人员骨干队伍，他们的专业知识将促进更好的康复研究设计。最后，他们还将努力增加女性和服务不足的少数群体以及工程师和理疗师等学科作为康复研究人员的代表性。
