BEHAVIORAL HEALTH WORKFORCE EDUCATION AND TRAINING PROGRAM - PROJECT DESCRIPTION: UNIVERSITY OF DETROIT MERCY (UDM) IS LOCATED IN DETROIT, MICHIGAN, A REGION FACING A CRITICAL SHORTAGE OF BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS, INCLUDING THOSE WITH ADVANCED TRAINING TO SERVE CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS, AND TRANSITIONAL-AGE YOUTH. THE UDM DEPARTMENT OF PSYCHOLOGY CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY PH.D. AND SPECIALIST IN SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY TRAINING PROGRAMS WILL PARTNER TO PREPARE BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROFESSIONALS TO SERVE MICHIGAN’S HIGH-NEEDS, HIGH-DEMAND COMMUNITIES THROUGH CLINICAL & SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY HEALTH ENGAGEMENT & RESOURCE EDUCATION (C-SPHERE), A HRSA BHWET PROGRAM FOR PROFESSIONALS. THIS JOINT TRAINING PROGRAM WILL ENHANCE TRAINING FOR A TOTAL OF 64 STUDENTS, WITH 32 FROM UDM’S CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY PH.D. PROGRAM WHO ARE IN THEIR FOURTH AND FINAL YEAR OF THE PROGRAM, AND 32 FROM THE SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY SPECIALIST PROGRAM IN THEIR THIRD AND FINAL YEAR OF THE PROGRAM, BY PROVIDING TRAINING STIPENDS, TARGETED MENTORSHIP, CULTURAL COMPETENCY TRAINING, AND INTERPROFESSIONAL COLLABORATION OPPORTUNITIES. NEEDS: C-SPHERE RESPONDS TO SIGNIFICANT COMMUNITY, TRAINING, AND WORKFORCE NEEDS, INCLUDING: HIGH RATES OF MENTAL HEALTH AND SUBSTANCE USE ISSUES AMONG YOUTH AND YOUNG ADULTS, EXCEEDING STATE AND NATIONAL AVERAGES; SIGNIFICANT SHORTAGES IN THE AVAILABILITY OF SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGISTS AND CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGISTS, FALLING FAR BELOW PROJECTED BEHAVIORAL HEALTH WORKFORCE ADEQUACY RATES; LIMITED CROSS-TRAINING OPPORTUNITIES FOR CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGISTS AND SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGISTS TO INTERACT ACROSS THEIR UNIQUE DISCIPLINARY CONTEXTS, AS WELL AS TO TRAIN IN INTEGRATED-CARE ENVIRONMENTS; AND THE SIGNIFICANT STUDENT LOAN BURDEN MANY GRADUATE PSYCHOLOGY STUDENTS CARRY WITHOUT SUFFICIENT ACCESS TO EXPERIENTIAL-TRAINING STIPEND SUPPORT. PROPOSED SERVICES: C-SPHERE WILL ADD FIVE NEW EXPERIENTIAL-TRAINING SITES IN HEALTH PROFESSIONAL SHORTAGE AREAS (HPSAS), INCLUDING TWO SITES FOR CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY STUDENTS, AND THREE SCHOOL SITES. THROUGH C-SPHERE ACTIVITIES, PSYCHOLOGY PROFESSIONAL STUDENTS, AS WELL AS FACULTY MEMBERS, SITE SUPERVISORS, AND PRACTICING BEHAVIORAL HEALTH PROVIDERS THROUGHOUT MICHIGAN, WILL GAIN INTERPROFESSIONAL SKILLS IN PREVENTION, INTERVENTION, AND FAMILY ENGAGEMENT TO ADDRESS MENTAL HEALTH DISORDERS, INCLUDING THROUGH A VIRTUAL INTERPROFESSIONAL PROFESSIONAL-EDUCATION SERIES, AND INTENSIVE CASE-BASED INTERPROFESSIONAL SEMINARS. POPULATION GROUPS THAT WILL BE SERVED: C-SPHERE STUDENTS IN BOTH CLINICAL AND SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY PROGRAMS WILL SUBSTANTIALLY FOCUS ON SERVING CHILDREN, ADOLESCENTS, AND YOUNG ADULTS WHO RESIDE IN UDM’S METRO DETROIT REGION (WHICH INCLUDES WAYNE, MACOMB, AND OAKLAND COUNTIES). CLINICAL PSYCHOLOGY STUDENTS LARGELY COMPLETE TRAINING IN URBAN DETROIT, WHERE RESIDENTS HAVE LOWER LEVELS OF EDUCATIONAL ATTAINMENT, HIGH RATES OF ADULTS WITHOUT HEALTH INSURANCE, AND A LARGER PROPORTION OF PEOPLE WITH DISABILITIES THAN OTHER MICHIGAN COMMUNITIES. SCHOOL PSYCHOLOGY STUDENTS COMPLETE PLACEMENTS THROUGHOUT THE REGION, WITH A HANDFUL OF STUDENTS PLACED IN OUTLYING EATON, HURON, INGHAM, LIVINGSTON, AND WASHTENAW COUNTIES EACH YEAR.

DEVELOPMENT OF A COMBINATION PRODUCT TAXONOMY AND COMPARATIVE HUMAN FACTORS TESTING METHOD FOR DRUG-DEVICE COMBINATION PRODUCTS SUBMITTED IN AN ANDA - PROJECT SUMMARY THIS RESEARCH SEEKS TO IMPROVE METHODS FOR THE IDENTIFICATION AND ANALYSIS OF USER INTERFACE (UI) DESIGN DIFFERENCES THAT MAY IMPACT SUBSTITUTABILITY OF REFERENCE LISTED DRUG (RLD) PRODUCTS WITH GENERIC DRUG-DEVICE COMBINATION PRODUCTS (DDCP) THAT ARE SEEKING FDA CLEARANCE THROUGH THE ABBREVIATED NEW DRUG APPLICATION (ANDA) PATHWAY. THIS RESEARCH WILL FACILITATE REGULATORY REVIEW AS WELL AS DESIGN AND DEVELOPMENT OF GENERIC DDCPS BY DEVELOPING A USE-RELATED-RISK-BASED ANALYSIS METHOD THAT CAN ENHANCE PATIENT ACCESS TO THE MEDICATIONS THEY NEED. THE PROPOSED AIMS INCLUDE: AIM 1. DEVELOP A BODY OF KNOWLEDGE OF KEY STAKEHOLDER PERSPECTIVES AND EXISTING STRATEGIES FOR ASSESSING USER INTERFACE DESIGNS. AIM 2. DEVELOP A VISUAL TAXONOMY TO SYSTEMATICALLY ANALYZE COMBINATION PRODUCT UI DESIGN ATTRIBUTES AND FACILITATE THE IDENTIFICATION OF MINOR AND OTHER DESIGN DIFFERENCES AS THEY RELATE TO POTENTIAL USE ERRORS THAT COULD CAUSE HARM OR COMPROMISE MEDICAL TREATMENT. AIM 3. DEVELOP A METHOD FOR THE COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF A PROPOSED GENERIC DDCP AND ITS RLD THAT IS BASED ON EVALUATING UI DESIGN DIFFERENCES RELATED TO THE POTENTIAL FOR INTRODUCING USE ERRORS ON CRITICAL TASKS THAT COULD RESULT IN HARM OR COMPROMISED MEDICAL CARE. THIS RESEARCH WILL IMPACT HUMAN FACTORS METHODS FOR ASSESSMENT OF DDCP INTERCHANGEABILITY BY PROVIDING CLARITY IN UI DESIGN DIFFERENCES THAT COULD LEAD TO POTENTIAL USE ERRORS THAT COULD RESULT IN HARM OR COMPROMISE MEDICAL TREATMENT. THE USE OF A VISUAL TAXONOMY FOR CLASSIFYING UI DESIGN ATTRIBUTES OF DDCP TYPES IS A NOVEL APPROACH THAT WILL MATCH CURRENT FDA GUIDANCE AND INTERNATIONAL STANDARDS AND SUPPORT FDA REVIEW OF HUMAN FACTORS DATA IN ANDA SUBMISSIONS. THE PROPOSED METHOD WILL LINK THE USE-RELATED RISK ANALYSIS (URRA) TO DIFFERENCES IN THE UI DESIGN ATTRIBUTES SPECIFIC TO DDCPS SEEKING PRE-MARKET CLEARANCE THROUGH AN FDA ANDA PATHWAY. THE END GOAL IS A PROPOSED HUMAN FACTORS METHODOLOGY TO IMPROVE THE QUALITY OF HF DATA IN ANDA SUBMISSIONS, FACILITATE MORE EFFICIENT FDA REVIEWS OF ANDA SUBMISSIONS, AND IMPROVE INDUSTRY ACCEPTANCE OF THE PROPOSED METHODOLOGY.

COLLABORATIVE RESEARCH: EPIIC: EXCELLENCE IN PARTNERSHIP WITH INDUSTRY, ACADEMIA, AND NEW DISCOVERIES (EXPAND) -THE EXPAND CONSORTIUM CONSISTS OF FIVE UNIVERSITIES (ANDREWS UNIVERSITY, MILWAUKEE SCHOOL OF ENGINEERING, UNIVERSITY OF DETROIT MERCY, UNIVERSITY OF ST. THOMAS, AND WESTERN NEW ENGLAND UNIVERSITY) SPREAD ACROSS THE INDUSTRIALIZED NORTH OF THE UNITED STATES FROM MINNESOTA TO MASSACHUSETTS. THE INSTITUTIONS ARE FOUR-YEAR PRIVATE UNIVERSITIES BASED NEARBY OR WITHIN LARGER METROPOLITAN AREAS WITH WELL-ESTABLISHED INDUSTRIES THAT TYPICALLY PRIORITIZE PARTNERSHIPS WITH MORE PROMINENT MAJOR RESEARCH UNIVERSITIES. THIS EPIIC PROGRAM WILL PROVIDE THE NECESSARY INFRASTRUCTURE, SKILLSET AND PREPARATION FOR THE INSTITUTIONS IN THE EXPAND CONSORTIUM TO INCREASE AND INSTITUTIONALIZE EXTERNAL PARTNERSHIPS. IN TURN, THIS WILL ENHANCE REGIONAL INDUSTRY COMPETITIVENESS BY ACCELERATING INNOVATION AND TRANSFERRING EXPERTISE FROM UNDERUTILIZED ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS, RESULTING IN REALISTIC USE-INSPIRED RESEARCH, TECHNOLOGY TRANSFER, AND COMMERCIALIZATION OF THE RESEARCH FRONTIER. THE PROJECT AIMS TO BUILD STRONG AND SUSTAINABLE EXTERNAL PARTNERSHIPS IN VARIOUS DISCIPLINES OF ENGINEERING AND COMPUTER SCIENCE, FOCUSING ON EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES. THE PROJECT'S METHODS AND APPROACHES INCLUDE SHARING BEST PRACTICES AND LESSONS LEARNED TO IMPROVE POLICIES AND PROCESSES FOR EXTERNAL PARTNERSHIPS, BUILDING FACULTY AND STAFF EXPERTISE THROUGH DEVELOPMENT AND SUPPORT, AND DEVELOPING INDUSTRY AND COMMUNITY PARTNERS WHILE RAISING THE INSTITUTIONS' PROFILES THROUGH TARGETED ACTIVITIES AND EVENTS. THE POTENTIAL CONTRIBUTION OF THIS PROJECT LIES IN ENHANCING THE CAPACITY OF THESE INSTITUTIONS TO SUPPORT LOCAL INNOVATION AND USE-INSPIRED RESEARCH, PROVIDING STUDENTS WITH EXPERIENTIAL LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES, DEVELOPING FACULTY EXPERTISE IN STRATEGIC INDUSTRY COLLABORATIONS, FOSTERING INNOVATION IN EMERGING TECHNOLOGIES BY STRENGTHENING ACADEMIA-INDUSTRY CONNECTIONS, AND CONTRIBUTING TO WORKFORCE DEVELOPMENT IN THEIR RESPECTIVE REGIONS. THIS PROJECT WILL NOT ONLY BENEFIT THE EXPAND CONSORTIUM UNIVERSITIES BUT ALSO DEMONSTRATE A MODEL FOR HOW SMALLER INSTITUTIONS CAN COLLABORATE TO PROMOTE THEIR DEVELOPMENT AND IMPROVE EFFICIENCIES THROUGH THE SHARING OF EXPERTISE AND RESOURCES. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.- SUBAWARDS ARE NOT PLANNED FOR THIS AWARD.

U-RISE AT UNIVERSITY OF DETROIT MERCY - SUMMARY THIS U-RISE GRANT PROPOSAL FROM THE UNIVERSITY OF DETROIT MERCY ADDRESSES THE NEED FOR FOSTERING THE DEVELOPMENT OF UNDERREPRESENTED RESEARCH SCHOLARS FOR CAREERS IN TEACHING AND RESEARCH IN THE BIOMEDICAL SCIENCES. BY INCREASING THE DIVERSITY OF UNDERREPRESENTED PERSONS IN POSITIONS OF LEADERSHIP AT RESEARCH INTENSIVE INSTITUTIONS, THE IMPLICIT BIASES THAT LIMIT ACCESS TO THESE POSITIONS CAN BE OVERCOME. IN ADDITION, UNDERREPRESENTED PERSONS WITH ADVANCED DEGREES IN RESEARCH WILL SERVE AS ROLE MODELS FOR MORE JUNIOR TRAINEES IN THE SCIENCE PIPELINE WHO NEED PEER MENTORS TO HELP VISUALIZE THEMSELVES AT ACADEMIC INSTITUTIONS WITH A CAREER IN BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH. THIS U- RISE PROGRAM (I-RISE WITH U-RISE: PREPARING UNDERREPRESENTED SCHOLARS AT DETROIT MERCY FOR CAREERS IN BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH) WILL RECRUIT, TRAIN, AND MENTOR 60 UNDERREPRESENTED UNDERGRADUATES AT THE UNIVERSITY OF DETROIT MERCY FOR THREE YEARS (UNDERGRADUATE YEARS 2-4) PER STUDENT WITH A CURRICULUM EMPHASIZING SCIENTIFIC LITERACY, DEVELOPMENT, AND RESEARCH. PRE-URISE AND EARLY U-RISE ACTIVITIES AND COURSES WILL FOCUS ON ESTABLISHING A SENSE OF COMMUNITY, SCIENTIFIC IDENTITY, AND BELONGING AS WELL AS INTRODUCING TRAINEES TO THEIR FIRST HANDS-ON LABORATORY EXPERIENCES WITH COURSE-BASED UNDERGRADUATE RESEARCH EXPERIENCES (CURES). THEIR SCIENTIFIC IDENTITY WILL BE FURTHER STRENGTHENED WITH ADDITIONAL COURSES/TRAINING MODULES IN SCIENTIFIC WRITING, RESPONSIBLE CONDUCT OF RESEARCH (RCR), AND SCIENTIFIC ETHICS. SUBSEQUENTLY, I-RISE WITH U-RISE TRAINEES WILL TAKE ADDITIONAL CURES AS AVAILABLE, ATTEND TRAINING WORKSHOPS ON ANALYZING AND INTERPRETING BIG DATA AND METHODS FOR ENHANCING REPRODUCIBILITY, PARTICIPATE IN ONGOING RCR TRAINING, AND ENGAGE IN NUMEROUS CAREER DEVELOPMENT SESSIONS WITH THEIR RESEARCH MENTORS AND THE STUDENT SUCCESS COORDINATOR. THESE STRATEGIES WILL ENSURE THE TRAINEES HAVE ALL THE GUIDANCE AND RESOURCES THEY NEED TO PLAN THEIR PATH TO GRADUATE SCHOOL AND PHD TRAINING BEYOND THE I- RISE WITH U-RISE PROGRAM. I-RISE WITH U-RISE TRAINEES WILL SPEND TWO SUMMERS ENGAGED IN INTENSIVE RESEARCH EXPERIENCES (~32 HOURS/WEEK FOR 8-10 WEEKS) THAT WILL ALLOW THEM TO LEVERAGE THEIR EXTENSIVE COURSE-BASED LABORATORY SKILLS INTO PRACTICE IN RESEARCH LABORATORIES. THE FIRST SUMMER RESEARCH EXPERIENCE WILL BE INTERNAL TO THE UNIVERSITY OF DETROIT MERCY, WHILE THE SECOND WILL BE OFF-SITE AT A RESEARCH-INTENSIVE INSTITUTION. THE GOAL OF THIS INTEGRATED RESEARCH INITIATIVE PROGRAM IS TO PREPARE UNDERREPRESENTED TRAINEES FOR A SUCCESSFUL CAREER AS PHD SCIENTISTS IN BIOMEDICAL RESEARCH AND PAVE THE WAY FOR THE DEVELOPMENT OF FUTURE RESEARCHERS IN THE FIELD.

CRII: CIF: INFORMATION THEORETIC MEASURES FOR FAIRNESS-AWARE SUPERVISED LEARNING -DESPITE THE GROWING SUCCESS OF MACHINE LEARNING (ML) SYSTEMS IN ACCOMPLISHING COMPLEX TASKS, THEIR INCREASING USE IN MAKING OR AIDING CONSEQUENTIAL DECISIONS THAT AFFECT PEOPLE?S LIVES (E.G., UNIVERSITY ADMISSION, HEALTHCARE, PREDICTIVE POLICING) RAISES CONCERNS ABOUT POTENTIAL DISCRIMINATORY PRACTICES. UNFAIR OUTCOMES IN ML SYSTEMS RESULT FROM HISTORICAL BIASES IN THE DATA USED TO TRAIN THEM. A LEARNING ALGORITHM DESIGNED MERELY TO MINIMIZE PREDICTION ERROR MAY INHERIT OR EVEN EXACERBATE SUCH BIASES; PARTICULARLY WHEN OBSERVED ATTRIBUTES OF INDIVIDUALS, CRITICAL FOR GENERATING ACCURATE DECISIONS, ARE BIASED BY THEIR GROUP IDENTITIES (E.G., RACE OR GENDER) DUE TO EXISTING SOCIAL AND CULTURAL INEQUALITIES. UNDERSTANDING AND MEASURING THESE BIASES-- AT THE DATA LEVEL-- IS A CHALLENGING YET CRUCIAL PROBLEM, LEADING TO CONSTRUCTIVE INSIGHTS AND METHODOLOGIES FOR DEBIASING THE DATA AND ADAPTING THE LEARNING SYSTEM TO MINIMIZE DISCRIMINATION, AS WELL AS RAISING THE NEED FOR POLICY CHANGES AND INFRASTRUCTURAL DEVELOPMENT. THIS PROJECT AIMS TO ESTABLISH A COMPREHENSIVE FRAMEWORK FOR PRECISELY QUANTIFYING THE MARGINAL IMPACT OF INDIVIDUALS? ATTRIBUTES ON ACCURACY AND UNFAIRNESS OF DECISIONS, USING TOOLS FROM INFORMATION AND GAME THEORIES AND CAUSAL INFERENCE, ALONG WITH LEGAL AND SOCIAL SCIENCE DEFINITIONS OF FAIRNESS. THIS MULTI-DISCIPLINARY EFFORT WILL PROVIDE GUIDELINES AND DESIGN INSIGHTS FOR PRACTITIONERS IN THE FIELD OF FAIR DATA-DRIVEN AUTOMATED SYSTEMS AND INFORM THE PUBLIC DEBATE ON SOCIAL CONSEQUENCES OF ARTIFICIAL INTELLIGENCE. THE MAJORITY OF PREVIOUS WORK FORMULATES THE ALGORITHMIC FAIRNESS PROBLEM FROM THE VIEWPOINT OF THE LEARNING ALGORITHM BY ENFORCING A STATISTICAL OR COUNTERFACTUAL FAIRNESS CONSTRAINT ON THE LEARNER?S OUTCOME AND DESIGNING A LEARNER THAT MEETS IT. AS THE CONSIDERED FAIRNESS PROBLEM ORIGINATES FROM BIASED DATA, MERELY ADDING CONSTRAINTS TO THE PREDICTION TASK MIGHT NOT PROVIDE A HOLISTIC VIEW OF ITS FUNDAMENTAL LIMITATIONS. THIS PROJECT LOOKS AT THE FAIRNESS PROBLEM THROUGH DIFFERENT LENS, WHERE INSTEAD OF ASKING ?FOR A GIVEN LEARNER, HOW CAN WE ACHIEVE FAIRNESS??, IT ASKS ?FOR A GIVEN DATASET, WHAT ARE THE INHERENT TRADEOFFS IN THE DATA, AND BASED ON THESE, WHAT IS THE BEST LEARNER WE CAN DESIGN??. IN SUPERVISED LEARNING MODELS, THE CHALLENGE IN THE PROPOSED PROBLEM LIES IN THE COMPLEX STRUCTURES OF CORRELATION/CAUSATION AMONG INDIVIDUALS? ATTRIBUTES (COVARIATES), THEIR GROUP IDENTITIES (PROTECTED FEATURES), THE TARGET VARIABLE (LABEL), AND THE PREDICTION OUTCOME (DECISION). IN ANALYZING THE DATASET, THE MARGINAL IMPACTS OF COVARIATES ON THE ACCURACY AND DISCRIMINATION OF DECISIONS ARE QUANTIFIED FROM THE DATA, VIA CAREFULLY DESIGNED MEASURES ACCOUNTING FOR THE COMPLEX CORRELATION/CAUSATION STRUCTURES AMONG VARIABLES AND THE INHERENT TENSION BETWEEN ACCURACY AND FAIRNESS OBJECTIVES. SUBSEQUENTLY, METHODS TO EXPLOIT THE QUANTIFIED IMPACTS IN GUIDING DOWNSTREAM ML SYSTEMS TO IMPROVE THEIR ACHIEVABLE ACCURACY-FAIRNESS TRADEOFF WILL BE INVESTIGATED. IMPORTANTLY, THE PROPOSED FRAMEWORK PROVIDES EXPLAINABLE SOLUTIONS, WHERE THE INCLUSION OF CERTAIN ATTRIBUTES IN THE LEARNING SYSTEM IS EXPLAINED BY THEIR IMPORTANCE FOR ACCURATE AS WELL AS FAIR DECISIONS. THIS AWARD REFLECTS NSF'S STATUTORY MISSION AND HAS BEEN DEEMED WORTHY OF SUPPORT THROUGH EVALUATION USING THE FOUNDATION'S INTELLECTUAL MERIT AND BROADER IMPACTS REVIEW CRITERIA.
