Summary This R25 Research Education Module, leveraging the infrastructure of the Indiana Clinical and Translational Sciences Institute (I-CTSI), will foster development of a diverse clinical and translational workforce within Indiana through education and immersive experiences of learners from historically marginalized backgrounds enrolled in Ivy Tech, our statewide community college system. The clinical and translational science workforce is lacking diversity. This has profound negative consequences across the translational spectrum. There is strong evidence that career exposure and experiences have a positive impact on career choices. Ivy Tech is the largest singly accredited statewide community college system in the country, with campuses across Indiana and an undergraduate enrollment of ~120,000. Over half of all the Black/African American or Hispanic/Latinx undergraduate learners in the Indiana public education undergraduate system attend Ivy Tech. The numerous majors at Ivy Tech that have connections to clinical and translational research make this an ideal platform to engage learners into these careers. Herein, we propose to combine career exploration with an immersion research experience to help learners develop a pathway toward the clinical and translational science workforce. Our program has three components. The first (AIM 1), focused on broad exposure to learners about careers in clinical and translational science, will be achieved through synchronous virtual programming across the statewide Ivy Tech system. The second (AIM 2a), focused on immersion research experiences, will connect learners, termed CTSI-Scholars from Ivy Tech campuses near one of the four University campuses of our I-CTSI (Notre Dame, Purdue, Indiana-Bloomington, and Indiana-Indianapolis) into a 10-week summer experience. These Universities each have thematic foci of clinical and translational research/science that will serve as primary research experiences. The program will prioritize learners from historically marginalized populations as CTSI/Ivy Tech Scholars. The third program component (AIM 2b), will provide support through a cohort-based longitudinal mentoring/professional development, focused on career-pathway attainment over the subsequent year. The program's efficacy will be determined (AIM 3) through evaluation of learner progression into educational tracks/careers connected to clinical and translational science. The Overall proposal is led by a Multi- PI team, who serve as co-Directors of Workforce Development program in the I-CTSI. They bring complementary expertise to the leadership and are supported by an Advisory Committee of leaders at Ivy Tech and the I-CTSI as well as numerous program staff from both entities.

概括 该 R25 研究教育模块利用印第安纳州临床和转化中心的基础设施 科学研究所（I-CTSI）将促进印第安纳州多元化临床和转化劳动力的发展 通过对来自历史边缘背景的学习者进行教育和沉浸式体验 在常春藤科技大学，我们的全州社区大学系统。缺乏临床和转化科学劳动力 多样性。这对整个翻译领域产生了深远的负面影响。有强有力的证据 职业经历和经历对职业选择有积极的影响。 Ivy Tech 是最大的单体 在该国获得认可的全州社区学院系统，其校园遍布印第安纳州，并拥有 本科生入学人数约 120,000 人。超过一半的黑人/非裔美国人或西班牙裔/拉丁裔 印第安纳州公共教育本科系统的本科生就读于常春藤科技大学。无数的 常春藤科技专业与临床和转化研究有联系，使其成为一个理想的平台 让学习者参与这些职业。在此，我们建议将职业探索与沉浸式体验结合起来 研究经验可帮助学习者开辟通往临床和转化科学劳动力的道路。 我们的计划由三个部分组成。第一个（AIM 1），重点是让学习者广泛了解以下领域的职业： 临床和转化科学，将通过跨领域的同步虚拟编程来实现 全州常春藤科技系统。第二个（AIM 2a）专注于沉浸式研究体验，将连接 来自 I-CTSI 四个大学校区之一附近的常春藤科技校区的学习者，称为 CTSI 学者 （圣母大学、普渡大学、印第安纳-布卢明顿和印第安纳-印第安纳波利斯）进入为期 10 周的夏季体验。 这些大学各自拥有临床和转化研究/科学的主题重点，将作为 主要研究经历。该计划将优先考虑来自历史边缘群体的学习者 CTSI/常春藤科技学者。第三个计划组成部分（AIM 2b）将通过基于队列的支持提供支持 纵向指导/专业发展，重点关注随后的职业道路成就 年。该计划的有效性将通过评估学习者的进展来确定（AIM 3） 与临床和转化科学相关的教育轨迹/职业。总体提案由多方领导 PI 团队，担任 I-CTSI 劳动力发展项目的联合主任。他们带来了互补 向领导层提供专业知识，并得到 Ivy Tech 和 I-CTSI 领导咨询委员会的支持 以及来自两个实体的众多计划工作人员。
