description Objectives/Goals: This proposal outlines the successful deployment of a research training initiative to support the formation of a Learning Healthcare System. Mayo Clinic Health System (MCHS) rural providers were offered the opportunity to the fundamentals of clinical research via Clinical and Translational Science Awards core curriculum, mentorship, and an online seminar series. Methods/Study Population: MCHS funded 4 key introductory research courses: 1) Manuscript Writing, 2) Grant Writing, 3) Basic Biostatistics, and 4) Essentials of Clinical and Translations Science Program. In addition to course offerings, a Research Interest Group was formed to guide novice rural researchers on topic selection and study design. This cultivated interest to create a 16-month clinical research webinar series offering CME credits. Subsequently, an internal MCHS RFA was launched seeking early-stage investigator pilot proposals focused on rural health. Results/Anticipated Results: In 2023, over 140 MCHS providers enrolled in 324 CCaTS research courses. This training led to the submission of 53 proposals to the inaugural MCHS 2023 RFA, of which 15 were awarded. Additionally, 14 MCHS extramural grants were submitted in 2023. Training efforts expanded in 2024 to include an online research seminar series covering various study topics and providing CME credit, with an approximate attendance up to 196 attendees per session. The second annual MCHS RFA resulted in 4 internal awards, with an additional 22 extramural grant submissions. These collective efforts have increased the number of MCHS first and last author publications and the number of MCHS providers with academic rank. Discussion/Significance of Impact: Leadership’s commitment of resources to educate, mentor, and engage clinicians was crucial to our success and demonstrated a strong return on investment. To maximize impact in community-based practice, continued commitment is needed in the form of protected research time, funding, and research administration support of projects of interest
