Project Summary: The T32 program ‘Promoting Academic Workforce Diversity in Translational Behavioral & Cardio-Metabolic Research (PINNACLE)’ at the University of Miami (UM) leverages our experience directing several URM- focused training programs over the past 15 years. The program provides an innovative, theory-based mentored learning experience anchored in an environment of inclusive excellence to promote academic careers of URM postdoctoral mentees. Its programmatic components are informed by the Theory of Planned Behavior, the Bandura’s Social Cognitive Theory, and the Ibarra-Thomas Theory. During the two academic years, mentees will receive didactic training in cardio-metabolic, behavioral, and digital health sciences by attending structured courses and workshops at the CTSI’s MS in Clinical Translational Investigation and the NHLBI-funded PRIDE Institute. Consistent with recommendations of the NIH Office of Intramural Training & Education, scholars will participate in individualized and group learning exercises to improve skills in critical thinking, verbal and written communication, time management and other soft skills necessary for academic advancement. They will be mentored while implementing their IDP, including acquisition of professional and lab-based research skills, peer networking, and grant writing. We will implement and evaluate the program for 5 years and track mentees’ achievements for 10 years post completion. Specific outcomes will include number of: 1) peer-reviewed publications and professional presentations; 2) leadership positions, retention and promotion; 3) awards; and 4) federal and non-federal grants. We will also evaluate mentees’ characteristics (self-efficacy, intrinsic motivation, and resilience) that predict academic success pre and post matriculation. The specific program aims are: 1) To select qualified postdoctoral URM mentees (e.g., PhD, MD, or MD/PhD) with great potential to become innovative and creative leaders in the scientific community, applying translational behavioral models to study and reduce risk of cardio-metabolic diseases (e.g., obesity, hypertension, diabetes, dyslipidemia, and sleep apnea); 2) To increase mentees’ academic self-efficacy to pursue independent research in translational behavioral cardio-metabolic health. This intensive 2-year program provides exposure to multidisciplinary research methods and digital health technologies utilized to study cardio-metabolic diseases and exposure to instructions to enhance leadership and career development skills; 3) To provide coaching, mentorship, and sponsorship to URM scientists to facilitate entry in academia and transition as independent researchers. PINNACLE will address a critical deficiency in the academic workforce by mentoring a total of 12 URM postdoctoral mentees to pursue careers in translational behavioral and cardio-metabolic research. This will have a strong impact in achieving Healthy People 2030 goal to diversify the academic workforce, thus expanding the capacity to implement translational behavioral models to improve health equity.

项目摘要： T32计划'促进翻译行为和心脏代谢中的学术劳动力多样性 迈阿密大学（UM）的研究（Pinnacle）利用我们指导几个URM的经验 在过去的15年中，重点培训计划。该计划提供了创新的，基于理论的 迈罗尔学习经验基于卓越的卓越环境，以促进学术 URM博士后月经的职业。它的程序化组件由 计划行为，班杜拉的社会认知理论和伊巴拉 - 托马斯理论。在两个期间 学年，受训者将接受心脏代谢，行为和数字健康的教学培训 通过参加CTSI的临床翻译MS的结构化课程和研讨会，科学 调查和NHLBI资助的骄傲研究所。与NIH办公室的建议一致 校内培训和教育，学者将参加个性化和小组学习练习 提高批判性思维，口头和书面交流，时间管理和其他软技能的技能 学术进步所必需的。在实施IDP时将考虑它们，包括 获取基于专业和实验室的研究技能，同行网络和赠款写作。我们将 实施和评估该计划已有5年，并在10年后跟踪威胁的成就已有10年 完成。具体结果包括：1）同行评审的出版物和专业 演讲； 2）领导职务，保留和晋升； 3）奖励； 4）联邦和非联邦 赠款。我们还将评估威胁的特征（自我效能感，内在动机和韧性） 预测矩阵前后的学术成功。特定程序的目的是：1）选择合格的 博士后URM MENEES（例如，博士学位，医学博士或医学博士学位）具有巨大的创新潜力和 科学界的创意领导者，采用翻译行为模型来研究和减少 心脏代谢疾病的风险（例如肥胖，高血压，糖尿病，血脂异常和睡眠呼吸暂停）； 2） 提高男性的学术自我效能感，从而从事转化行为的独立研究 心脏代谢健康。这个密集的2年计划提供了多学科研究的敞口 方法和数字健康技术用于研究心脏代谢疾病并暴露于 提高领导力和职业发展技能的说明； 3）提供教练，指导和 向URM科学家赞助，以促进进入学术界，并作为独立研究人员过渡。 Pinnacle将通过心理12 URM来解决学术劳动力的严重缺陷 博士后，从事翻译行为和心脏代谢研究的职业。这会 在实现健康人2030目标以使学术劳动力多样化的目标方面有很大的影响，从而 扩大实施翻译行为模型以提高健康公平的能力。
