DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The Kentucky INBRE serves a statewide mission to build infrastructure and capacity for biomedical and health-related research and training as well as for bioinformatics. In this application, the University of Louisville is partnered with the University of Kentucky, Berea College, Eastern Kentucky University, Morehead State University, Northern Kentucky University and Western Kentucky University to continue the development of our collaborative network. The goals of our network are to build competitive research and training programs in the biomedical and health sciences, particularly in the fields of genomics and neuroscience, as well as to build competitive bioinformatics programs. These efforts will lead to improved prospects for career development for our undergraduate and graduate students, postdoctoral fellows, and young faculty investigators. In this application, we propose mechanisms to sustain as well as grow the competitive research component of this program as this aspect is viewed as critical to the establishment of our training and career development activities. This will include support for teaching-postdoctoral fellows and research associates for existing investigators, program support for new research investigators, and for the initiation of new developmental research projects. For bioinformatics, we aim to support projects with the potential for development as competitive independent, and/or collaborative, proposals. To enhance the career development aspects for faculty, postdoctoral fellows and prospective researchers in our program we will develop a mentoring team of proven investigators to provide workshops on grant writing skills and disseminate materials related to best practices. We intend to continue partial support of our centralized microarray facility which is essential to the development of genomics-based research projects at this and other institutions, and we will continue to develop initiatives in aid of our growing proteomics research base. We propose to establish a new, community-based participatory research core. As a first step, this core will establish web-accessible de-identified electronic health records for health care organizations in rural Kentucky. Health information gained from this activity will be used to inform the future development of our undergraduate and graduate curriculum content and our biomedical research goals. The infrastructure will also be used to enable the patient community to indicate their interest in participating in relevant clinical research trials. In summary, our strategy is designed to strengthen and build our infrastructure and capacity and to build an innovative next generation network. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE (provided by applicant): Health information gained from the development of a community-based participatory core will be used to inform the future development of our undergraduate and graduate curriculum content and our biomedical research goals. The infrastructure will also be used to enable the patient community to indicate their interest in participating in relevant clinical research trials

描述（由申请人提供）：肯塔基州的近亲执行了全州范围的使命，以建立与生物医学和健康相关的研究和培训以及生物信息学的基础设施和能力。在此应用程序中，路易斯维尔大学与肯塔基大学，伯里大学，肯塔基大学，莫尔黑德州立大学，北肯塔基大学和西肯塔基大学合作，继续开发我们的合作网络。我们网络的目标是在生物医学和健康科学，尤其是在基因组学和神经科学领域以及建立竞争性生物信息学计划的领域中建立竞争性研究和培训计划。这些努力将为我们的本科生和研究生，博士后研究员和年轻教师调查员提供改善的职业发展前景。在此应用程序中，我们提出了维持和发展该计划的竞争性研究部分的机制，因为这方面对建立我们的培训和职业发展活动至关重要。这将包括对现有研究人员的教学教学研究员和研究伙伴的支持，对新研究研究者的计划支持以及启动新的发展研究项目。对于生物信息学，我们旨在支持具有竞争性独立和/或协作提案的发展潜力的项目。为了增强教师，博士后研究员和潜在研究人员的职业发展方面，我们将开发一个由验证的调查人员组成的指导团队，以提供有关赠款写作技能的讲习班，并传播与最佳实践相关的材料。我们打算继续对我们的集中式微阵列设施进行部分支持，这对于在该机构和其他机构的基于基因组学的研究项目的开发至关重要，我们将继续制定倡议，以帮助我们不断增长的蛋白质组学研究基础。 我们建议建立一个新的基于社区的参与性研究核心。作为第一步，该核心将为肯塔基州农村的卫生保健组织建立可识别的网络访问的电子健康记录。从这项活动中获得的健康信息将用于告知我们本科和研究生课程内容以及我们的生物医学研究目标的未来发展。基础设施还将用于使患者社区表明他们有兴趣参加相关的临床研究试验。总而言之，我们的战略旨在加强和建立我们的基础设施和能力，并建立创新的下一代网络。 公共卫生相关性（由申请人提供）：从基于社区的参与核心的发展中获得的健康信息将用于告知我们本科和研究生课程内容的未来发展以及我们的生物医学研究目标。基础设施还将用于使患者社区表明他们有兴趣参加相关的临床研究试验
