Ray DingledineFocus on team science &
translational research
![Page 9: Research in the Emory School of Medicine David Stephens Jeff Sands Trish Haugaard October 2006.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071807/56649eb65503460f94bbff04/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
2003 Strategic Plan for Research
Goal• Accelerate our progress towards top-tier status as a
medical research enterprise
Mechanisms• Grow space, infrastructure and investigators• Promote translational & team science
![Page 10: Research in the Emory School of Medicine David Stephens Jeff Sands Trish Haugaard October 2006.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071807/56649eb65503460f94bbff04/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Strategic Plan for Research: 2008 goals
Culture• Improve integration of research and clinical missions
People• Increase the number of NIH funded investigators by ~100
• Attend to retention as well as recruitment
• Increase # grad students from 322 to ~500, MD/PhDs from 8% to 12% of entering class, and postdocs from 420 to 630
Programs• Build new research space (550,000 gsf)
• Build team science research from 18 to 25% of NIH income
• Increase investment in enabling technologies & research cores

Seven Research Areas for Emphasis
1. Cancer
2. Neurosciences
3. Immunity and Host Defense
4. Cardiovascular and Epithelial Biology
5. Regenerative, Transplantation and Reparative Medicine
6. Integrative Medicine and Health Services Research
7. Molecular Structure and Interactions

Plan of Action for NIH RFA for Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA)
The purpose of this initiative is to forge a
uniquely transformative, novel and
integrative academic home for clinical
and translational science.
![Page 13: Research in the Emory School of Medicine David Stephens Jeff Sands Trish Haugaard October 2006.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071807/56649eb65503460f94bbff04/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
CTSAIt should:
1. Captivate, advance and nurture a cadre of well-trained multi- and inter-disciplinary
investigators and research teams.
2. Create an incubator for innovative research tools.
3. Synergize multi- and inter-disciplinary clinical and translational research.

NEW CHALLENGES
• NIH FUNDING • Budget growth shrinking• 90% of grant applications not funded• 1% across-the-board cut on all discretionary
spending translating into a $286M reduction in NIH spending
![Page 18: Research in the Emory School of Medicine David Stephens Jeff Sands Trish Haugaard October 2006.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071807/56649eb65503460f94bbff04/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
NEW CHALLENGES
• Grants.gov• Electronic Submission system not ready• SR424 very different than PHS398• Change from % effort to # of person months• No internal electronic routing system (yet)• Earlier internal submission deadlines required
![Page 19: Research in the Emory School of Medicine David Stephens Jeff Sands Trish Haugaard October 2006.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022071807/56649eb65503460f94bbff04/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
GRANT POINTERS
• Submit your grant to multiple funding agencies, such as NIH, VA, AHA, others
• Write your grant at least a month in advance of the deadline• Have people who know the field read it• Have people NOT in the field read it• Do not submit just to submit – it is better to
get it right (or close) than to get triaged
