The northern New England region constitutes a unique public health landscape with challenging needs for its residents, particularly prevention, early detection, and intervention of chronic diseases. The Pilot Projects Program (PPP) successfully provided support to clinical and translational investigators to conduct public health research addressing health inequities in urban, rural and underserved communities that face sizable barriers to healthcare access. The PPP worked with all the NNE-CTR Cores over the first four years to develop and implement 29 projects with clinical, translational, and Covid-19 implications. Those pilots enhanced healthcare delivery as well as accelerated the career trajectory of several pilot project awardees. Building upon our considerable accomplishments, the current aims of the PPP will support a three step process to enhance further pilot success while simultaneously improving our mentoring program in collaboration with the Professional Development Core. In Aim 1 of this three-stage process, we will expand researcher recruitment and support concept development to incentivize and build meaningful interdisciplinary collaborations. We will disseminate PPP opportunities through our NNE-CTR website, newsletter, and social media, and support young, early-stage and established investigators during concept development in collaboration with the Professional Development (PDC) and the Biostatistics, Epidemiology, and Research Design (BERD) Cores. In Aim 2, we will help investigators prepare Pilot Project applications by providing mentorship in study design and data analysis, and by engaging navigators from the Community Engagement and Outreach (CEO), PDC, and BERD Cores. We will encourage consultation with Core leadership, community representatives, and content experts to enhance design feasibility. In the final stage, Aim 3, we will mentor pilot project awardees during the post-award phase by providing scientific and professional development guidance to awardees via quarterly meetings. We will assist awardees to develop extramural grant proposals, including holding mock “study sections” in partnership with the PDC, to ensure competitive proposals. For those whose external applications fell below the payline, we will return to the first stage and support further concept development for subsequent applications. We will also ensure all research conducted through the PPP is continually aligned with principles of diversity, equity, and inclusion. We will leverage our existing partnerships with CTSAs, State Departments of Health, the Northern New England Practice-Based Research Network, and the Rural Health Communications Network. By restructuring our pilot awards, we will support an array of projects, ranging from multistage clinical and translational studies to community-specific public health initiatives. This should provide pilot awardees with the opportunity to enhance their academic careers while serving the rapidly shifting public health needs of our communities.

新英格兰北部地区构成了独特的公共卫生景观，其挑战需求 居民，特别是预防，早期发现和慢性疾病的干预。飞行员项目 计划（PPP）成功地为临床和翻译研究人员提供了支持，以进行公共卫生 针对城市，粗糙和服务不足社区的健康不平等的研究，面临着相当大的障碍 医疗保健访问。 PPP在最初的四年中与所有NNE-CTR核心合作，以开发和 实施29个具有临床，转化和COVID-19含义的项目。那些飞行员增强了医疗保健 交付以及加速了几个试点项目获奖者的职业轨迹。建立在我们的基础上 取得相当大的成就，PPP的当前目标将支持一个三步的过程以增强 进一步的飞行员成功，同时改善我们的心理计划 专业发展核心。在这个三阶段过程的目标1中，我们将扩大研究人员的招聘 并支持概念开发，以激励和建立有意义的跨学科合作。我们将 通过我们的NNE-CTR网站，新闻通讯和社交媒体传播PPP机会，并支持 与概念开发期间的年轻，早期和成熟的研究人员与 专业发展（PDC）以及生物统计学，流行病学和研究设计（BERD）核心。在 AIM 2，我们将通过提供研究设计的指导和 数据分析，以及通过社区参与和外展（CEO），PDC和 伯德核心。我们将鼓励与核心领导，社区代表和内容进行磋商 专家增强设计可行性。在AIM 3的最后阶段，我们将在心理飞行员项目中获奖者 通过季度向获奖者提供科学和专业发展指导，授予后阶段 会议。我们将协助获奖者制定壁外赠款建议，包括举行模拟“学习” 部分与PDC合作，以确保竞争性建议。对于那些外部申请的人 跌至Payline以下，我们将返回第一阶段，并支持进一步的概念开发以后的顺序 申请。我们还将确保通过PPP进行的所有研究都与原则保持一致 多样性，公平和包容性。我们将利用与CTSA，州部门的现有合作伙伴关系 健康，新英格兰北部实践的研究网络和农村健康传播 网络。通过恢复我们的飞行员奖，我们将支持一系列项目，包括多阶段临床 并将研究转化为社区特定的公共卫生计划。这应该提供试验者 有机会提高他们的学术职业，同时满足公共卫生的迅速转移的需求 我们的社区。
