Informatics at first 12 CTSA sitesMJBs
Impression (disclaimer!!!)
  • All Twelve CTSA sites have a component of
    Research IT support
  • Includes implementation, enhancement, support of
    existing systems
  • Pathology Informatics is grossly
    under-represented (except maybe in Tissue Banking
    Informatics)
  • Punch line every program in CTSA (as a
    requirement for funding) has to have a training
    program in clinical research and have a
    biomedical informatics core!!!

12
CTSA Training Programs
  • CTSA has (by requirement) training programs (K
    and T programs of NIH) and clinical and
    translational research centers (CTRCs, formerly
    GCRCs)
  • K Programs (for junior faculty)
  • Career Development and Mentorship Programs
  • Clinical Research Scholars Program
  • Focus is to take MDs and train them in clinical
    research
  • Pathology is not taking advantage of this major
    opportunity
  • T Programs (for residents and fellows)
  • Clinical Research Training Program
  • Certificate program (1 yr) available at most
    institutions
  • Designed for trainees clinical translational
    research fellowship
  • Pathology is not taking advantage of this major
    opportunity

16
NLM Training Programs
  • Focused on 3 types of training
  • PhD major focus
  • MS major focus
  • Certificates (one year generally) excellent for
    Pathology Informatics trainees
  • Great for informatics networking even if your
    program is stand alone
  • Short term training opportunities also available
    summer, 3 month rotation
  • Major demand see 10x10 program

http//grants.nih.gov/grants/guide/pa-files/PA-06-
087.html
The K25 award will provide support and protected
time for a period of supervised study and
research for productive professionals with
quantitative (e.g., mathematics, statistics,
economics, computer science, imaging science,
informatics, physics, chemistry) and engineering
backgrounds to integrate their expertise with
NIH-relevant research. Requires mentor Requires
training plan Requires research plan

CAP Foundation
  • Scholars Research Program sponsored by CAP and
    SeraconAward Amount     Up to 12,500 for six
    months Up to 25,000 for one year
  • Intended for salary support. Recipients
    institution is expected to contribute benefits
    and overhead costs and may provide a support
    supplement. Assurance must be given that
    facilities and direct support sufficient for the
    work proposed by the applicant will be provided
    throughout the term of the grant.
  • This award is made to the scholar, not the
    institution. It may, with cause, be terminated at
    any time. Recipients who choose not to accept the
    award may list the recognition on their
    curriculum vitae.
  • Purpose The purpose of the award is to help
    facilitate the transition from residency to an
    independent investigator. Therefore, persons who
    have already been awarded major research support
    for the previous academic year will not be
    eligible.
  • Time Commitment Projects must be completed
    within one (1) year. For those who are in a
    second year fellowship, the project must be
    completed within three (3) years after completing
    residency. Applicants must plan to spend their
    fellowship year in basic or applied research, and
    are expected to work full-time as defined in
    their project plan.
  • Eligibility Residents at the PGY 2 level, and up
    to those doing a second year fellowship.
    Residents who are more than three years
    post-residency training are not eligible.
    Applicants must be a CAP Member or have an
    application pending.

Conclusions
  • Pathology Informatics trainees should consider
    clinical research training programs in CTSA sites
    38
  • Pathology Informatics trainees should consider
    biomedical informatics training programs 18
  • Other funding opportunities exist in your
    institution, foundations and from industry
  • Communicate with CAP Foundation
  • Make it happen, there are options!!!
