Smartphone-Delivered, Diabetes-Modified Behavioral Activation Treatment (Smartphone DM-BAT) in AAs With T2DM
Description: Mentorship is an important component of career advancement in academic medicine. Several studies have established that lack of mentoring is a reason for poor career advancement and attrition, particularly among women and minority faculty. The candidate who has a track record of mentoring women and minority faculty would benefit from the protected time for mentoring afforded by the proposed K24 renewal award, while allowing continued research to eliminate disparities in diabetes. The proposed K24 renewal application is designed to support the career and research trajectory of the candidate by providing protected time to conduct patient-oriented research on interventions to decrease morbidity/mortality from diabetes in ethnic minorities and mentor the next generation of women and minority clinical investigators in health disparities research.
