Abstract: The Pilot Project Program of the Environmental Health Sciences Center (EHSC) is key to multiple goals of the Center, including: establishing and developing new and novel research to expand translational environmental health sciences, supporting career development, attracting new Center members, strengthening existing areas of Center research, and promoting engagement between researchers and community partners to address identified needs. Two types of pilot project awards are offered on a bi-annual basis: Full Pilot Projects of up to $30K, and Mini Pilot Projects of up to $10K. Pilot Project applications are reviewed by a Standing Review Committee comprised of Center members with expertise ranging from epidemiology to basic science research. This committee includes both junior and senior faculty, the Director of Career Development Program and members with overlapping roles in the Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute at the University of Rochester Medical Center (URMC). When necessary, additional reviewers from within or outside of URMC faculty serve as ad hoc members, providing additional relevant expertise or to alleviate conflicts of interest. The Community Engagement Core (CEC) and Integrated Health Sciences Facilities Core (IHSFC) foster research-community partnerships that may lead to Pilot Project proposals that are responsive to community concerns and opportunities. The Biostatistics Core provides consultation on Pilot Project study design and data analyses. All applications are read by the Director of the CEC, who works with PIs to enhance community engagement in ongoing research directions. Since the start of the current funding cycle, a total 48 Full Pilot Project applications and 29 Mini-Pilot applications were received. Of these, a total of 29 Full and 22 Mini-Pilot Projects have been awarded. Of the 51 applications that were awarded,15 were to junior faculty investigators, and 15 were awarded to non-Center members, of whom 7 have since become Center members. During the current funding cycle, approximately $993K has been allocated to Pilot Projects (both Full and Mini-pilots), which has resulted in approximately $15M (direct cost dollars) in new extramural funding. This is a notable return given not only the present extremely limited funding environment, but also considering that the most recently awarded pilot projects have not yet had sufficient time to mature into externally funded projects. Future directions include continuation of the Pilot Project Program to build new and strengthen existing areas of Center interdisciplinary and translational research, foster junior faculty career development, attract new Center members, and engage community partners. In addition, the Pilot Project Program plans to continue to lead and participate in new collaborative pilot projects with other NIEHS P30 Centers across the country.

摘要：环境健康科学中心（EHSC）的试点项目计划是实现多项目标的关键。 该中心的目标包括： 建立和发展新的和新颖的研究以扩大转化 环境健康科学，支持职业发展，吸引新的中心成员，加强 中心研究的现有领域，并促进研究人员和社区合作伙伴之间的参与 解决已确定的需求。每两年提供两种类型的试点项目奖项： 全面试点项目 高达 3 万美元的资金，以及高达 1 万美元的迷你试点项目。试点项目申请由常务审查委员会审查 委员会由具有从流行病学到基础科学研究等专业知识的中心成员组成。 该委员会包括初级和高级教师、职业发展项目主任和 罗切斯特大学临床和转化科学研究所角色重叠的成员 医疗中心（URMC）。必要时，来自 URMC 教员内部或外部的额外审稿人将作为 临时成员，提供额外的相关专业知识或缓解利益冲突。社区 参与核心（CEC）和综合健康科学设施核心（IHSFC）促进研究社区 可能导致试点项目提案能够响应社区关切的伙伴关系，以及 机会。生物统计学核心提供试点项目研究设计和数据分析的咨询。全部 申请由 CEC 主任阅读，他与 PI 合作，加强社区参与 正在进行的研究方向。自当前资助周期开始以来，共有 48 个全面试点项目申请 已收到 29 份迷你试点申请。其中，共有 29 个全面试点项目和 22 个迷你试点项目 授予。在获得批准的 51 份申请中，有 15 份属于初级教员研究人员，其中 15 份获得批准 向非中心会员开放，其中 7 人已成为中心会员。在本轮融资周期内， 大约 99.3 万美元已分配给试点项目（全面试点和迷你试点），这导致 大约 1500 万美元（直接成本美元）的新外部资金。这是一个显着的回报，因为不仅 目前资金环境极其有限，但也考虑到最近授予的试点项目 尚未有足够的时间成熟为外部资助的项目。未来的方向包括继续 试点项目计划的目的是建立新的和加强中心跨学科和现有领域 转化研究，促进初级教师的职业发展，吸引新的中心成员，并参与 社区合作伙伴。此外，试点项目计划计划继续领导和参与新的 与全国其他 NIEHS P30 中心合作试点项目。
