Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER KFC)Education/Training/Workforce Development Workgroup Mission Statement: To promote and facilitate incorporation of comparative effectiveness research skills into the training activities of early investigators at CTSA consortium institutions, and to promote activities that allow established investigators to develop skills of comparative effectiveness research and thereby broaden the available workforce Vision Statement: To advance comparative effectiveness research by expanding the workforce nationwide that has the requisite skills for conducting and using comparative effectiveness research.
Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER KFC)Education/Training/Workforce Development October 2010 November 2010 September 2010 June 2010 December 2010 August 2010 July 2010 Prepare assessment instrument based on competencies Prepare report describing process and results Distribute instrument as part of needs assessment /collect results Analyze results and revise competencies as appropriate Circulate Preliminary Competences Disseminate report Discuss instrument with needs assessment WG and education KFC Collect T32, KM1 curricula Review existing guidance on workforce development Milestone Reached
In next six months, we will do the following items. •Collect proposed competencies and curricula from recently funded T32/K12 pre-doctoral and post-doctoral training grants in CER as well as the KM1 awards (Tim Carey leading effort) • Create a matrix of competencies for four key groups identified during the CER Forum (Jodi Segal) •Describe an ideal CER workforce – • Start by reviewing existing reports/ publications describing a CER workforce --we have identified relevant references –there isn’t much. (Steve Kymes) • Develop a framework to begin the discussion --- this is lower priority now (Jodi Segal) •Begin process of collecting existing CER teaching resources – including short courses, seminars, problem sets. Items that might be shareable. Will also reach out to organizations that may already have items (ISPE, Academy Health, SMDM)
CER KFC COLLABORATION WORKGROUP REPORT: 1) ACTION ITEMS, OUTCOMES, AND PROJECT TIMELINE OF *NOV. 30TH CER KFC BUSINESS MEETING*DEC. 1ST CER FORUM WG LEAD REPORTING: Jodi Segal (in lieu of Lisa) 11:40 AM EST
Comparative Effectiveness Research (CER KFC)CER KFC Collaboration Workgroup Mission/Vision Statement: • Support development of connections & collaborations to develop, execute, and apply CER at multiple levels: • Within individual CTSA institutions • Across CTSA CER investigators • Between CTSA CER investigators and other relevant CER investigators and stakeholders (e.g. AHRQ EPC institutions, DeCIDE network, CERTS, etc...)
CER KFC Collaboration Workgroup July-Aug 2010 Oct-Jan 2010 Future 2011 Sept-Oct 2010 February 2011 Aug-Sept 2010 Develop semi-structured key informant interview protocol for those sites Conduct paper review process with whole KFC, CE networking group (for synergy with translation white paper they are doing) • Conduct all site interviews • Collect all relevant documents • Do web site analysis if resources permit • Analyze findings and develop key themes • Present findings to WG • Refine themes/conclusions Draft White paper based on findings • Edit questions for needs assessment survey and cut points for identifying sites to interview. Analyze results of needs assessment survey relevant to translation; refine interview protocol
Highlights from F2F meeting • The workgroup identified mentoring as a potential opportunity and discussed how one CTSA would be identified as the mentor as opposed to the mentee. The workgroup noted that partnering would be a positive feature but they would need to know the capabilities of other CTSA. • Three new ideas were identified by the group: 1) To “pair” CTSAs that share similar audiences and are geographically close to each other. The CTSAs would develop partnerships in community engagement endeavors. 2) Educate all CTSAs on the CER capabilities of the other CTSAs so that they can make better decisions in choosing who to partner or collaborate with. 3) Capitalize on current partnerships between CTSAs (existing networks), to increase the amount of collaboration they currently have with other CTSAs rather than developing new partnerships.

Information Dissemination Workgroup CER KFC Submission Request CER KFC New brief (July 2010) -- Example Comparative Effectiveness Research KFC Builds Connections with Practice-Based Research Networks Researchers At the recent Agency for Healthcare Research and Quality (AHRQ) 2010 National Practice-Based Research Networks (PBRN) Research Conference held on June 16-18 in Bethesda, Maryland, comparative effectiveness research (CER) sessions generated interest in connecting PBRNs and CTSAs. Of the participating PBRN institutions at one session facilitated by dual CTSA and PBRN researcher, Paul Meissner, (Albert Einstein- Montefiore Institute for Clinical and Translational Research), there were over half a dozen institutions that also have CTSAs. CER topics of interest focused on service system design, behavior change models, health promotion systems, and translational research for complex patients in complex systems. Throughout the meeting, NIH and AHRQ staff stimulated CER discussions in a coordinated fashion to facilitate connecting CER researchers and leveraging PBRN and NIH programs including the CTSA program. Researchers identified the top areas of need: data systems infrastructure and integration support, and the development of CER methods. The CTSA CER KFC will continue to foster the collaborative CER efforts with AHRQ PBRN researchers. For more information, contact Paul Meissner, Montefiore Medical Center, David Lanier, AHRQ, or Rosemarie Filart, NCRR. Quick turnaround for short paragraphs needed! This is your monthly reminder to please submit to me to me at pmeissne@montefiore.org your proposed items for inclusion in our information dissemination newsletter submission. Remember this is 3-5 sentences of your individual CTSA CER success story and research update(s) such as a brief summary of an CER training, trainees, teachers, mentors, etc.. activity; CER research advance; or CER related public news information. The KFC will offer it as the CTSA e-newsletter CER KFC news piece.
