Clinical and Translational Science Strategic Plan (CSP) Just ideas for discussion…

Key orientation for CSP What can the consortium accomplish as a unified/federated organization beyond the impact of the individual sites?
Key Components of a Strategic Plan • Mission • Vision • Goals • Tactics • Manual of Operations (MOP) • Communication plan • Evaluation plan • Budget and funding
Clinical and Translational Science Awards • The Clinical and Translational Science Awards (CTSAs) is a consortium that is transforming how clinical and translational research is conducted, ultimately enabling researchers to provide new treatments more efficiently and quickly to patients. • The consortium is designed to: • Encourage the development of new methods and approaches to clinical and translational research • Improve training and mentoring to ensure that new investigators can navigate the increasingly complex research system • Design new and improved clinical research informatics tools • Assemble interdisciplinary teams that cover the complete spectrum of medical research • Forge new partnerships with private and public health care organizations
Who Cares about the CTSA CSP? • Primary Players: CTSA PI’s and NCRR • Key Partners • Consortium committees • NIH Institutes • Key constituents • Institutional officials for CTSA recipients • NIH leadership • Faculty at CTSA recipients • Rest of clinical and translational research world • Congress, industry, professional societies and organizations, the public, the press
Consortium Oversight Committee (COCC) • Responsible for driving the process of developing the CSP • Discussing on weekly conference calls • Organizing input/writing the plan • Deciding when iterations are needed with partners and constituents • Crafting penultimate version for approval by COCC
COCC Members • COCC Co-Chairs (currently Berglund and Califf) • NCRR leadership (currently Alving and Hayward) • PI members • NIH members
NCRR Role • Provides ideas and concepts for CSP • Discusses drafts of plan for iterative input • Has input into all aspects • Approves through COCC • Iteratively deals with consonance of plan with funding availability and allowable mechanisms of funding
PI Role • Provides ideas and concepts for CSP • Discusses drafts of plan for iterative input • Has input into all aspects, • Approves through COCC • Has key input into feasibility of implementation of vision given institutional opportunities and constraints • Monitors and communicates need for updates through COCC
Consortium Committees • Represented by Co-Chairs and PI liasons • Asked for input to vision and mission statements early on • Asked for ideas about key priorities and needs prior to “consortium wide retreat” • Review and comment on product of retreat • Review and comment on drafts of CSP
NIH Institutes • Represented by NIH appointed and PI liasons • Asked for input to vision and mission statements early on • Asked for ideas about key priorities and needs prior to “consortium wide retreat” • Review and comment on product of retreat • Review and comment on drafts of CSP
Thoughts on Key Constituents • Institutional officials • Existential issue of role of CTSA within institutions (transforming or “on the shelf”?) • Need to get these folks involved • NIH leadership • How do we deal with likelihood of new administration? • Importance of clear CTSA consensus on value • Faculty • We are challenged to assure that we are communicating effectively with our own faculty • This is a chance to do it
Thoughts on “Rest of World” • Congress, the press, the public • Communication methods very similar for these 3 elements • Should they be involved and how? • Professional organizations and professions • Too many to count • Should they be involved and how? • Industry • IT, devices, drugs, payers, providers, etc… • Prediction: private money will be more important no matter who gets elected so “rules of engagement” will be critical
Process for Strategic Plan • Use face to face meeting of COCC to begin discussion of mission, vision and goals • Retreat of operations committee shortly after face to face meeting • Ask each committee to come up with list of what it believes the consortium should be doing • “Big Bang” CSP retreat of PI’s and NCRR leaders with reps of other key constituents • Work towards plan agreement within 2 cycles of face to face meetings • Treat the CSP as a “living document”
Impetus for the CTSA Program • Implementing biomedical discoveries made in the last 10 years demands an evolution of clinical science. • New prevention strategies and treatments must be developed, tested, and brought into medical practice more rapidly. • CTSA awards will lower barriers between disciplines, and encourage creative, innovative approaches to solve complex medical problems. • These clinical and translational science awards will catalyze change -- breaking silos, breaking barriers, and breaking conventions.

CTSA Publication Policy Initial Discussion
CTSA Publication Policy • Publications emanating from an individual CTSA • With direct CTSA funding of personnel • With infrastructure support • “CTSA associated”
CTSA Publication Policy • Publications reflecting opinions about CTSA
CTSA Publication Policy • Publications reflecting official view of CTSA Consortium • With NIH and PI participation • With NIH, but not PI participation • With PI, but not NIH participation
