Develop a comprehensive "white paper" highlighting the benefits of continuing the Center, engage with University development offices for donor support, liaise with NIH administrators, and explore expansion into new research areas to ensure future funding sustainability. Proactive faculty recruitment and self-assessment are key steps towards encouraging high-quality mind-body science and community backing for ongoing success.
E N D
Dissemination and Uptake • Develop “white paper” for circulation to administration on the advantages of continuing the Center • Work with University development offices to seek Foundation/donor support • Contact NIH senior administrators about the advantages of continuing the Center • Watch for roadmap opportunities
Dissemination and Uptake • Expand to new areas, e.g., how environmental exposures impact behavior • Proactively recruit new faculty into area thru pilot funds • Self-evaluation of impact of our activities
Questions • What are other things we can do to encourage high quality mind-body science? • Should we replace some of the current mechanisms with others? • How can we encourage local support of PMBC? • What should we do to ensure future funding?
