PROJECT SUMMARY ABSTRACT: The broad goal of the University of Miami's Advanced Workshops and Coaching Network (AWACN) is to enhance the stage-specific career development skills of newly funded, underrepresented minority NIDDK researchers at the postdoctoral and junior faculty levels. Continued development of professional skills will foster early career success and lay the foundation for a strong and rewarding career in academic research. Program scholars will participate in a 3-day workshop hosted by the University of Miami's Miller School of Medicine. Workshop curricula will be determined by pre-workshop needs assessment surveys allowing each workshop to target needs of the scholar cohort and avoid overlap with strong programs at the scholars' home institutions. Workshops will include didactic instruction, experiential activities and provide scholars with tangible outputs. All workshops will be led by NIDDK-funded researchers at the University of Miami, or faculty with expertise in transferable skills development. The latter will include effective negotiation tactics, strategies to combat microaggression, and work/life balance. During the workshop each scholar will also meet their two coaches, who, over the next two years, will provide guidance and support to the scholar. Coaches are all University of Miami faculty with current research funded by NIDDK and who are trained mentors. One coach will match the research type of the scholar (basic science, translational, or clinical research) and the other coach will provide a broader perspective (e.g. a translational scientist will bring experience in moving basic science discoveries into potential therapies). Coaches will meet remotely with their scholars approximately once a month by phone or video conference to provide guidance on topics of the scholar's choice. Coaches will also strongly promote the scholar's engagement in productive, substantive collaborations that lead to joint publications that then support their recognition in their field and promote their career progression. The effectiveness of the workshops (Aim 1) and extended coaching (Aim 2) will be evaluated using a outcome logic model. This model will assess the effectiveness of the program components and resources on the scholars' career progression and satisfaction. The evaluation process will also address whether an external workshop program and/or coaching network can enhance career development programs at the home institution, and if present, counteract negative aspects of the home institution's working environment. Dissemination of course content and anonymized results will include publication on a dedicated website and publication of a peer-reviewed manuscript. Evaluation and dissemination will be strengthened by working with the NIDDK Program Scientist collaborating on the project, and the Steering Committee of Program Directors from all funded programs under RFA-DK-22-002 to administer a common evaulation strategy and combine data from all programs into a comprehensive analysis and publication describing these results.

项目概要 摘要：迈阿密大学高级研讨会和辅导网络 (AWACN) 的总体目标 旨在提高新资助的、代表性不足的少数族裔 NIDDK 的特定阶段职业发展技能 博士后和初级教师级别的研究人员。专业技能的持续发展将促进 早期职业成功，并为学术研究领域强大而有价值的职业生涯奠定基础。程序 学者们将参加由迈阿密大学米勒医学院主办的为期 3 天的研讨会。 研讨会课程将通过研讨会前的需求评估调查来确定，以便每个研讨会能够 针对学者群体的需求，避免与学者所在机构的强势项目重叠。 研讨会将包括教学指导、体验活动，并为学者提供切实的成果。全部 研讨会将由 NIDDK 资助的迈阿密大学研究人员或具有以下专业知识的教师主持 可转移技能的发展。后者将包括有效的谈判策略、打击战略 微攻击和工作/生活平衡。在研讨会期间，每位学者还将见到他们的两位教练， 在接下来的两年里，他将为学者提供指导和支持。教练都是大学 迈阿密教师的当前研究由 NIDDK 资助，并且是经过培训的导师。一名教练将匹配 学者的研究类型（基础科学、转化或临床研究），另一位教练将提供 更广阔的视角（例如，转化科学家将把基础科学发现转化为经验） 潜在的治疗方法）。教练将大约每月一次通过电话或方式与他们的学者进行远程会面 视频会议为学者选择的主题提供指导。教练们也会大力宣传 学者参与富有成效的实质性合作，从而产生联合出版物，然后支持 他们在各自领域的认可并促进他们的职业发展。研讨会的有效性（目标 1） 扩展辅导（目标 2）将使用结果逻辑模型进行评估。该模型将评估 项目组成部分和资源对学者职业发展和满意度的有效性。 评估过程还将解决外部研讨会计划和/或辅导网络是否可以 加强母校的职业发展计划，如果有的话，抵消职业发展计划的负面影响 所在机构的工作环境。课程内容和匿名结果的传播将包括 在专门网站上发表并发表同行评审的手稿。评估与传播 将通过与 NIDDK 项目科学家合作开展该项目以及指导来加强 RFA-DK-22-002 下所有资助项目的项目主任委员会负责管理一个共同的项目 评估策略并将所有计划的数据结合起来进行全面的分析和发布 描述这些结果。
