Within this context, the goal of the Research/Mentoring Core is to develop a cadre of independent and interdependent faculty that can successfully contribute to and compete for biomedical research projects. Objectives To meet the overall goal, the objectives of the Research/Mentoring Core are to select projects for support as Pilot Research Grants and to work closely with Pilot Research Grant investigators to: 1. Develop and maintain research capacity in their individual laboratories as well as in collaborative projects. 2. Present results at national and international meetings. 3. Publish results obtained through the pilot projects in peer-reviewed journals. 4. Obtain R01 or equivalent independent grant awards by NIH, NSF or other agencies to fund ongoing research initially supported as pilot projects. 5. Assure graduation of students directly supported by the pilot projects.
