## Abstract

Our overall vision is to develop, demonstrate, and disseminate innovative programs to achieve translational
success for the benefit of human health. The Translational Endeavors Core helps the Rockefeller Center for
Clinical and Translational Science (CCTS) achieve this vision by ensuring that the translational workforce is
educated and skilled (Translational Workforce Development; TWD) and that investigators have access to
pilot and clinical project funding to develop their novel translational research ideas (Pilot Translational and
Clinical Studies Program). The specific aims of TWD are: 1. To train all members of the translational workforce
in Good Clinical Practice, Protection of Human Subjects, incorporation of the views of patients and research
participants in the choice of research priorities and the design of research protocols, and team science. 2. To
advance the field of Research Nursing through the activities of the Heilbrunn Family Center for Research
Nursing, including: a) educational activities at Rockefeller University focused on the elements in Specific aim 1
augmented by protocol-specific scientific education and training in special research-related procedures, b)
leadership of national efforts to enhance the field of research nursing and its recognition as advanced
specialized nursing practice through education and certification. 3. To insure that the translational workforce
understands the scientific hypothesis being tested in the protocol and how it relates to the health need it is
designed to address.4. To provide targeted educational programs for: a) medical students who want to
participate in a year-long mentored translational research project, b) PhD and MD-PhD students, post-doctoral
fellows, and basic scientists, to introduce them to the core elements in clinical and translational science, and c)
junior translational scientists to help them acquire the experience, knowledge, and skills they need to transition
to full scientific independence (Rockefeller Early Phase Physician Scientist Program, REPPS), d) investigators
who want to translate their research findings into products to improve human health (From Discovery to Health-
Enhancing Product Program), and e) community clinicians participating in research studies. The Pilot
Translational and Clinical Studies Program’s specific aims are: 1. To encourage high quality translational
research projects, especially those that contain: a) a community-based research component, b) children or the
aged, c) minority, underserved, or health disparity populations, d) low socio-economic populations, e) patients
and community clinicians in setting the research priorities and designing the study. 2. To expand translational
science by encouraging basic scientists to explore new translational or disease-related aspects of their
research programs. 3. To support research Clinical Scholars and other early-phase translational scientists.4.
To encourage the creation of transdisciplinary or com...
