1. School of Medicine Research RoadmapOctober 24, 2011

2. Progression of the SoM Research Roadmap • From CONCEPTION …………..To FINAL ROADMAP DOCUMENT • Strategic Initiatives Developed by Collaborative Research Leadership (December 2010) • Strategies Developed by Task Forces and Steering Committee (January-April 2011) • Draft Report Submitted to Dean Richardson (June 2011) • Reviewed and Revised by Dean Richardson and Task Force co-chairs (August 2011) • Final Draft of Research Roadmap completed (October 2011) • Launch of Research Roadmap by Collaborative Research Leadership (October 2011)

3. Strategic Initiatives • 1. Identify and invest in areas of research strength that make best use of School of Medicine resources to advance human health and well-being. • 2. Advance School of Medicine capacity in translational research. • 3. Promote research excellence through effective organizational systems and infrastructure. • 4. Enhance training, career development and mentoring opportunities for the next generation of biomedical researchers. • 5. Promote, nurture and support a professionally rewarding culture for researchers at OHSU. • 6. Increase awareness, appreciation and understanding of the value of research at OHSU to both internal and external stakeholders and the public.

4. Next Steps? • Creating a “Research Blueprint” • Implementation of strategic tactics • Integration across the roadmap • Evaluation and assessment of progress and goals.

5. School of Medicine Research Blueprint • What is the Research “BLUEPRINT”? • The BLUEPRINT is a guide for practical implementation of strategies and tactics for each strategic initiative. • Implementation plans will be reviewed annually, updated and evaluated for outcome progress. • Developed by faculty and staff with input from content experts. • Evaluated annually to determine resource needs and integrated with ongoing OHSU-wide initiatives. • Staged implementation according to SoM strategic priorities and resource needs.

7. School of Medicine Research Blueprint • Council for Research Opportunities and Strengths • (CROS) • CROS Charge • Develop and apply principles for resource allocation to and investment in distinctive and emergent research areas. • CROS Composition • Leaders and faculty representing the breadth of the School of Medicine’s research mission. • CROS Membership • Determined via a mix of permanent positions, appointments by the Dean of the School of Medicine and positions elected by a School of Medicine faculty vote.

9. Summary of task force review • Quality and reputation of certain graduate programs is very high • Too many graduate programs • Better integration of graduate programs with medical/physician training needed • Remove multiple barriers to “cross-training” • Develop tuition model that allows students access to all programs • Training grant/fellowship funds should support graduate programs • Organize services/training for topics that cross all graduate programs

10. School of Medicine Research Roadmap • Who will continue to develop the Blueprint? • Collaborative Research Leadership • Associate Deans for Basic and Clinical Science • Aided by Chris Wallace and many others… • Dean’s office • VP for Research office

11. School of Medicine Research Roadmap Plans for Communication to the Faculty: • “Toolkit” (ppt slides, roadmap initiatives/document) • Website www.ohsu.edu/researchroadmap • Articles and regular updates in SOM Research Voice, FPP/Clinician Commons, monthly SOM News • Blueprint will be continuously updated
