    5th Annual IUSM Education Day Program Brochure
    (2024-04-26) Kochhar, Komal; Potter, Maddie
    Program for the 5th annual Indiana University School of Medicine Education Day held at Hine Hall Conference Center on the IUPUI campus on April 26, 2024. An inherent challenge of operating a large multi-campus educational system is being able to provide professional development opportunities for all our medical educators across the state. To address this need, the Indiana University School of Medicine implemented an annual “Education Day”to promote educational scholarship across our nine-campus system. Held each spring, Education Day showcases the educational scholarship of IUSM faculty, staff, and learners, and provides a forum to share best educational practices and forge new collaborations in educational research.

    Advancing Research on the Complex Interrelations between Atrial fibrillation and Heart Failure: A Report from a National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute Virtual Workshop
    (American Heart Association, 2020-06-09) Al-Khatib, Sana M.; Benjamin, Emelia J.; Albert, Christine M.; Alonso, Alvaro; Chauhan, Cynthia; Chen, Peng-Sheng; Curtis, Anne B.; Desvigne-Nickens, Patrice; Ho, Jennifer E.; Lam, Carolyn S.P.; Link, Mark S.; Patton, Kristen K.; Redfield, Margaret M.; Rienstra, Michiel; Rosenberg, Yves; Schnabel, Renate; Spertus, John A.; Warner Stevenson, Lynne; Hills, Mellanie True; Voors, Adriaan A.; Cooper, Lawton S.; Go, Alan S.; Medicine, School of Medicine
    The interrelationships between atrial fibrillation (AF) and heart failure (HF) are complex and poorly understood, yet the number of patients with AF and HF continues to increase worldwide. Thus, there is a need for initiatives that prioritize research on the intersection between AF and HF. This report summarizes the proceedings of a virtual workshop convened by the National Heart, Lung, and Blood Institute to identify important research opportunities in AF and HF. Key knowledge gaps were reviewed and research priorities were proposed for characterizing the pathophysiological overlap and deleterious interactions between AF and HF; preventing HF in persons with AF; preventing AF in individuals with HF; and addressing symptom burden and health status outcomes in AF and HF. These research priorities will hopefully help inform, encourage, and stimulate innovative, cost-efficient, and transformative studies to enhance the outcomes of patients with AF and HF.

    Are Surgeons Behind the Scientific Eight Ball: Delayed Acquisition of the NIH K08 Mentored Career Development Award
    (Elsevier, 2020-02) Hosfield, Brian D.; John, Quincy E.; Seiler, Kristen M.; Good, Misty; Dunnington, Gary L.; Markel, Troy A.; Surgery, School of Medicine
    Background: Surgery residents complete their research training early in residency. Non-surgical trainees typically have research incorporated toward the last two years of their fellowship, conferring an advantage to apply for grants with recent research experience and preliminary data. Methods: The NIH RePORTER database was queried for K08 awardees trained in medicine, pediatrics, and surgery from 2013 to 2017. 406 K08 recipients were identified and time from completion of clinical training to achieving a K08 award was measured. Data were compared using ANOVA and expressed as mean. P < 0.05 was considered significant. Results: Surgeons took longer to obtain a K08 than those trained in internal medicine (surgery = 3.7 years, internal medicine = 2.58 years p < 0.0001)). All K08 recipients without a PhD took longer to obtain a K08 than recipients with a PhD (MD = 3.50 years and MD/PhD = 2.42 years (p=<0.0001). Conclusions: Surgeons take longer to achieve a K08 award than clinicians trained in internal medicine, possibly due to an inherent disadvantage in training structure.

    Assessment of Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experiences: AMeeting Report
    (American Society for Cell Biology, 2014) Auchincloss, Lisa Corwin; Laursen, Sandra L.; Branchaw, Janet L.; Eagan, Kevin; Graham, Mark; Hanauer, David I.; Lawrie, Gwendolyn; McLinn, Colleen M.; Pelaez, Nancy; Rowland, Susan; Towns, Marcy; Trautmann, Nancy M.; Varma-Nelson, Pratibha; Weston, Timothy J.; Dolan, Erin L.; Chemistry and Chemical Biology, School of Science
    The Course-Based Undergraduate Research Experiences Network (CUREnet) was initiated in 2012 with funding from the National Science Foundation program for Research Coordination Networks in Undergraduate Biology Education. CUREnet aims to address topics, problems, and opportunities inherent to integrating research experiences into undergraduate courses. During CUREnet meetings and discussions, it became apparent that there is need for a clear definition of what constitutes a CURE and systematic exploration of what makes CUREs meaningful in terms of student learning. Thus, we assembled a small working group of people with expertise in CURE instruction and assessment to: 1) draft an operational definition of a CURE, with the aim of defining what makes a laboratory course or project a "research experience"; 2) summarize research on CUREs, as well as findings from studies of undergraduate research internships that would be useful for thinking about how students are influenced by participating in CUREs; and 3) identify areas of greatest need with respect to CURE assessment, and directions for future research on and evaluation of CUREs. This report summarizes the outcomes and recommendations of this meeting.

    Assessment of Interest and Resources Needed for the Development of Scalable Healthcare Professionals Facilitated Strategies to Diversify Alzheimer’s Disease Research Participation
    (Wiley, 2025-01-09) Parker, Monica W.; Glover, Crystal M.; Johnson, David K.; Arce Rentería, Miguel; Biber, Sarah A.; Wang, Sophia; Psychiatry, School of Medicine
    Background: Increasing underrepresented racial and ethnic minority group (URG) participation in early‐stage Alzheimer’s disease and related dementias (ADRD) research is critical to inclusive characterization of underlying pathology and testing of disease‐modifying treatments. One promising recruitment strategy to accelerate URG participation is for healthcare professionals (HCPs) to facilitate referrals. The use of HCP‐facilitated recruitment strategies across the Alzheimer’s Disease Research Center (ADRC) network, a major referral source for ADRD multisite observational and clinical trials, has not been examined. We hypothesized that there would be interest in the development of scalable HCP‐facilitated recruitment strategies to accelerate URG participation across the ADRC network. Methods: We emailed Outreach, Recruitment and Engagement (ORE) Cores within the NIA‐funded ADRC network to complete a web‐based REDCap™ survey on their current HCP‐facilitated recruitment strategies for URG participants, resources enhancing use of these strategies, and their interest in strategy development. We conducted descriptive statistics using SPSS 29.0. Results: Out of 37 ADRCs, 27 (73.0%) completed the survey. Although the majority of ADRCs (66.7%, N = 18) reported HCPs referring URG participants (Table 1), they mostly relied on HCP faculty based at the ADRC (48.1%, N = 13) or the ADRC affiliated academic medical center (51.9%, N = 14) (Table 2). Nearly all (92.5%, N = 25) ORE Cores expressed interest in participating in or learning more about future efforts to develop HCP‐facilitated recruitment strategies for increasing URG participation. Resources which would increase use of HCP‐facilitated strategies for URG referrals included guidance on outreach and engagement strategies (70.4%, N = 19), culturally tailored resources for HCPs to refer participants (59.3%, N = 16), technology and informatic recruitment strategies (63.0%, N = 17), and staff effort (63.0%, N = 17) (Table 3). Conclusions: Our survey identified key opportunities to develop novel scalable HCP‐facilitated recruitment strategies to accelerate URG participation. Although most ORE Cores expressed interest in expanding their HCP‐facilitated recruitment strategies to have more inclusive research participation, there is need for both higher‐level strategic guidance and ready‐to‐use resources to implement these strategies. Future studies will need to develop and test scalable HCP‐facilitated strategies and resources to systematically accelerate URG research participation.
