  1. Creating a Map for Success: AuD/PhD Recruitment, Programming, and Funding STUDENTS Peggy Nelson, Mark DeRuiterUniversity of MinnesotaCAPCSD 2013

  3. The need • Some solutions • Our experience • With great appreciation from NIDCD program staff: Daniel Sklare and Janet Cyr How can we support our AuD / PhD students and develop the next generation of scholars?

  4. Report on general Ph.D. shortages (e.g., 2008) • Anecdotally, there are concerns that the Au.D. will create a vacuum of Ph.D.-level researchers • Data? • Anecdotally, there are concerns re: attrition • Data? The need

  5. From the need we have seen diverse solutions, including: • Programs with multiple points of entry • Blended curricula • Focused curricula (research vs. teaching) • Different options for culmination of the degree • University/graduate school constraints Some solutions: Education

  6. An attempt to pull from multiple models: • Multiple points of entry • Positive “cross talk” across degree programs/departments • Tri-level focus: Clinician, Scholar, Researcher Time • Flexible degree conferral • Each of these factors assists us with funding: • Ability to advise students to take advantage of funding as it is available • Ability to take advantage of timing of externships and research opportunities Our experience:Flexibility = funding

  7. Flexibility has been key to funding • http://slhs.umn.edu/assets/pdf/AuD%20PhD%20Sample%20Curriculum.pdf • Fellowships (endowed) • Teaching assistantships • Research assistantships • Relationships across departments • Grant funding (Nelson) • Challenge: It has created a small amount of angst for some students • Advising is critical to help students understand that they will finish, but paths will vary Our experience:Sample curriculum

  8. Peggy Nelson Formal funding mechanisms

  9. Three programs in research intensive institutions (Vanderbilt, BTNRH, and NCRAR) Provide summer research experiences to AUD students nationwide each summer NIDCD travels all these trainees to AAS to present their research projects; several trainees are pursuing Ph.D. training post-AuD • AuD-PhD dual-degree programs are beginning to form • National Clinician-Investigator Mentoring Networks Research ASHA (Pathways Program) Duke University/ Duke Clinical Research Institute A Special Note from NIDCD to Emerging Investigators…

  10. ASHA/NIDCD Clinical Investigator Mentorship Network, that goes under the name of the Pathways Program. http://www.asha.org/Research/Pathways-Program/ August Report emerging NIDCD Research Training Workshop “Moving the NIDCD Research Training Program Forward in Fiscally Constrained Times” http://www.nidcd.nih.gov/research/training/Pages/Moving-NIDCD-Research-Training-Forward-2012.aspx On Line Resources from ASHA andNIDCD

  11. Selected NIDCD Research Training and Career Development Awards Ruth L. Kirschstein National Research Service Awards (NRSAs) Individual Fellowships F30- Integrated Dual Degree (MD/PhD, AuD/PhD, etc) F31- Predoctoral training (diversity and “generic”) F32- Postdoctoral training Institutional Training Grants (T32, T35) Career Development (K-)Awards Mentored Junior Clinician-Investigator (K08, K23) Early-Stage Career Transition (K99/R00) Junior-Midcareer Mentored Research Scientist Development (K01, K25)

  12. NIDCD-Supported Individual NRSA Fellowship Mechanisms • Individual NRSA’s (F’s) represent ~1.3% of NIDCD’s budget • Unique expedited submission-to-award timeline • Current portfolio (as of 8/15/12) totals 107 awards: 10 F30 awards; 57 F31 awards; • & 40 F32 awards

  13. Submitted* NIDCD Individual NRSA Fellowship Applications by Mechanism *If the original and amended submissions are reviewed in the same FY, they are only counted once

  14. NIH FY11 Dual-Degree NRSA (F30) Success Rates* 9 NIH Institutes participated in the F30 mechanism *If the original and amended submissions are reviewed in the same FY, they are only counted once

  15. NIH FY11 Predoc NRSA (F31) Success Rates 9 NIH Institutes participate in the “generic” F31 mechanism

  16. NIH FY11 Postdoc NRSA (F32) Success Rates* 503 20 NIH Institutes participated in the F32 mechanism Data not shown for NIEHS, NINR, NHGRI, NIDCR, NCCAM, NIAAA; each had <25 submitted applications.

  17. Success of NIDCD F31 Awardees in Obtaining Subsequent NIH F32 or R03 Awards • For F31 awardees whose fellowship ended in FY1990-2009 (n=282): • 39% applied for an NIH F32 or R03 • 55% of those who applied were successful, which is a 22% award rate overall (total) • of the PIs who had subsequent awards, 69% were F32s; 31% were R03s; 4 had both F32 and R03

  18. Success of NIDCD F32 Awardees in Obtaining Subsequent RPG* Awards (*R01, NIDCD R03, R15, and R29) • For F32 awardees whose fellowship ended in FY1990-2005 (n=259): • 47% applied for a subsequent NIH RPG* • 70% of those who applied were successful, which is a 33% award rate overall (85/259 total)

  19. Consider multi-pronged solutions that fit our institutions Encourage conversation with NIDCD Encourage students to pursue pre-doctoral funding options to increase their likelihood of post-doctoral research support Continue the Discussion
