The Centers for Education and Research on Therapeutics (CERTs) offers this grant to support the CERTs Scientific Forum (CS Forum), aiming to foster synergistic and impactful research and educational collaborations among CERTs Research Centers and with broader stakeholders. The CS Forum convenes CERTs through its National Steering Committee and various workgroups, drawing on aggregated expertise to address critical issues in therapeutics. This grant is for supporting activities across five key programmatic areas: comparative effectiveness, patient safety, tool development, healthcare system interventions, and the translation of research findings into practice or policy. Additionally, the CS Forum will facilitate at least one major collaborative CERTs project annually, based on input from the Research Centers and Steering Committee. This initiative strengthens the collective impact of therapeutics research.

Description: | Purpose. The CERTs Scientific Forum (CS Forum) has as its primary goal the achievement of synergistic and impactful research and educational collaborations of the CERTs Research Centers (RCs) with each other and with stakeholders and partners in the larger therapeutics research and education community. The CERTs Research Centers (RCs) conduct individual and independent theme-based research and education activities on the optimal use of therapeutics and are the subject of a separate, but related FOA (RFA-HS-11-004). The CS Forum convenes the CERTs through meetings of its National Steering Committee (SC) and also through CERTs workgroups and committees that address important and common issues in therapeutics which draw upon the aggregated experience and expertise of the CERTs RCs and their partners; the CS Forum thereby supports the CERTs in addressing 5 broad programmatic interest areas: (1) comparative effectiveness, (2) patient safety, (3) tool development, enhancement, and/or validation, (4) health care system interventions, and (5) translation of research findings into practice or policy. In addition to supporting the CERTs SC and RCs, the CS Forum supports a minimum of one major collaborative CERTs project/activity annually based upon input and recommendations of the CERTs RCs and SC. |
