项目摘要

ABSTRACT The BBRC RCMI proposes to create an Investigator Development Core (IDC), the purpose of which is to foster excellence of BBRC RCMI investigators at all career stages, with a special focus on Early Stage Investigators (ESI). The goals of the IDC will be to create a culture of mentorship, support and research excellence within the BBRC RCMI, incentivize the submission of extramural grants by ESI, and to offer opportunities for BBRC RCMI investigators to seek seed funding for pilot projects sponsored by the center. The innovative aspects of this approach include (1) extending support to all BBRC RCMI investigators of any career stage; and (2) a “synergy = success” model which incorporates the commitments of multiple stakeholders at the university, programmatic, and external levels to ensure a sustained support of BBRC RCMI Investigators. Drawing from best practices and lessons learned from fellow RCMIs that have identified and addressed key barriers to center success, the BBRC RCMI proposes IDC activities to include: (1) mentorship of senior postdoctoral fellows and ESI, including involvement of the NIGMS-funded National Research Mentoring Network (NRMN); (2) training on grant writing for BBRC RCMI investigators; (3) course release offers to ESI in exchange for using the protected time to write and submit proposals for extramural funding; (4) opportunities for ESI to compete for seed funds to jumpstart efforts to secure preliminary data for preparation of larger competitive grant submissions; and (5) opportunities for senior postdoctoral fellows and senior investigators to secure small-term starter or bridge funds, respectively, at critical transition points in their research career. It is anticipated that the concerted investment of UTEP and the BBRC RCMI at all levels of organization will succeed in creating a dynamic and productive workforce, sustain a support structure throughout the career trajectories of early-, mid-, and senior-level investigators, and facilitate the generation of outstanding research products that contribute to our understanding of minority health disparities in the border region.

抽象的 BBRC RCMI 提议创建一个研究者开发核心（IDC），其目的是培养 BBRC RCMI 调查员在所有职业阶段的卓越表现，特别关注早期调查员 (ESI)。IDC 的目标是在业界内创建一种指导、支持和卓越研究的文化。 BBRC RCMI，激励ESI提交校外资助，并为BBRC RCMI提供机会研究人员为该中心赞助的试点项目寻求种子资金。方法包括 (1) 向所有职业阶段的 BBRC RCMI 调查员提供支持；(2) 形成“协同作用”； =成功”模型，该模型融合了大学多个利益相关者的承诺、程序化、和外部层面，以确保 BBRC RCMI 调查员借鉴最佳实践和持续支持。 BBRC 从其他 RCMI 中汲取的经验教训已确定并解决了中心成功的关键障碍 RCMI 建议 IDC 活动包括：（1）高级博士后研究员和 ESI 的指导，包括 NIGMS 资助的国家研究指导网络 (NRMN) 的参与；(2) 资助写作培训；对于 BBRC RCMI 调查员；(3) 向 ESI 提供课程发布，以换取使用受保护的写作时间并提交外部资助建议；(4) ESI 竞争种子资金以启动的机会； (5) 机会为高级博士后研究员和高级研究员分别获得小额启动资金或过桥资金，预计 UTEP 和他们的共同投资将在他们研究生涯的关键转折点上取得进展。组织各级的 BBRC RCMI 将成功打造一支充满活力和生产力的员工队伍，贯穿早期、中期和高级研究人员职业轨迹的支持结构，并促进产生有助于我们了解少数族裔健康差异的杰出研究产品在边境地区。
