Deputy Director’s Leadership Guide and Orientation Curriculum

The field of corrections is constantly evolving, requiring continuous learning and professional development for correctional administrators. With responsibility for leading correctional systems, Deputy Directors of Corrections are charged with managing the overall operations of the system, developing and implementing agency policy and procedure, engaging with internal and external stakeholders, and responsible for overseeing significant fiscal and human resources. They have a responsibility to provide leadership that is forward-looking, innovative, and responsive, and their position carries substantial managerial as well as leadership responsibilities. By providing direct supervision of department heads and others, as well as managing a multi-faceted system-wide tasks and projects, the deputy director provides critical leadership to the correctional department.

As such, it is imperative for new Deputy Directors to understand the critical issues facing the field and recommendations for effectively addressing areas of need. It is equally important for them to keep abreast of correctional best practices and emerging issues, as well as representing and supporting the director’s initiatives in the legislature, the community, and throughout the correctional organization. Today, there is an increasing demand for leadership involvement in stakeholder interests, legislative, criminal justice and public safety arenas in which the new deputy director may have limited experience. Additionally, the deputy director must become more strategic in providing leadership and adapting the correctional organization to meet the challenges and opportunities that exists.

The original Deputy Director’s Leadership Guide was developed in 2004, as an important resource for the new deputy director and provided an orientation on the emerging issues and persistent correctional challenges of the position. Also, it offered peer support, mentoring and networking opportunities for the new deputy director by their more experienced counterparts. However, since the initial product, the guide has not been updated to reflect current problems and issues that the incoming deputy director can be expected to encounter, and the topics that were covered may no longer be relevant or appropriate to the position.

The goal of this project is to build upon the previous Leadership Guide, and provide a significant update that will orient the new deputy directors in their position. The new guide should focus on 10-12 topics on critical issues and/or persistent correctional challenges that have been identified by subject matter experts (SMEs) and a group of experienced deputy directors. Examples of topics to be considered may include organizational culture, engaging stakeholders, fiscal decision-making, population management, prison security and operations, healthcare and behavioral health, human resource management, media relations, communications, strategic planning, technology, information management, staff wellness and new trends in corrections.

Additionally, the awardee will work with the NIC Program Manager, SMEs and a group of experienced deputy directors to take 3-5 critical issues that were identified for the Leadership Guide, and develop an orientation curriculum that can be delivered in a virtual format and subsequently in an e-course format. The curriculum should utilize the Instructional Theory Into Practice (ITIP) format.

Deadline: Aug. 14, 2020

NIC invites applications from nonprofit organizations (including faith-based, community, and tribal organizations), for-profit organizations (including tribal for-profit organizations), and institutions of higher education (including tribal institutions of higher education). Recipients, including for-profit organizations, must agree to waive any profit or fee for services. NIC welcomes applications that involve two or more entities; however, one eligible entity must be the applicant and the others must be proposed as sub-recipients. The applicant must be the entity with primary responsibility for administering the funding and managing the entire program.

Appointment of Interim Vice President for Research 

June 26, 2023

Dear Stony Brook Community,

I am pleased to share that Professor Miguel Garcia-Diaz will be appointed Interim Vice President for Research (VPR), effective July 15. As the university’s senior research officer, he will provide oversight for research administration, strategy, policy, technology transfer and economic development. He will also serve as the Operations Manager for the SUNY Research Foundation.

Currently Miguel oversees research development as Stony Brook’s Interim Associate Vice President for Research and Deputy Operations Manager for the Research Foundation, positions he was appointed to in 2022 following a long history as an accomplished researcher and educator. He has served in various roles at Stony Brook, including Associate Dean in the Graduate School and Graduate Program Director for the Molecular and Cellular Pharmacology PhD program.  He has also participated in several research initiatives, including Facilitating Research Success and the Strategic Budget Initiative.

Miguel received a BS in Biochemistry and a PhD in Biochemistry and Molecular Biology from the Universidad Autonoma in Madrid, Spain. Following completion of a post-doctoral fellowship at the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, he was appointed as assistant professor in the Renaissance School of Medicine’s Department of Pharmacological Sciences in 2007, where he is currently a professor.

Miguel is a structural biologist who has focused his research — some of which takes place at Brookhaven National Laboratory (BNL) — on understanding how mitochondria use their genome to build the different structures necessary for mammalian respiration. In addition to Miguel’s demonstrated commitment to advancing institutional research, he has been dedicated to developing the next generation of researchers in biomedical, behavioral and clinical research, including students from groups underrepresented in these fields of research. He has shown excellent leadership and mentorship qualities as the Director of the T32-funded Training Program in Pharmacological Sciences and as Co-Director of the National Institute of Health’s IRACDA Training Program.

I am deeply grateful for Rich Reeder’s leadership as VPR since 2016 and for his willingness to continue leading the university’s strategic engagement with BNL. I am confident that Miguel’s scientific and administrative experience, as well as his commitment to the institution and to supporting faculty researchers, will help Stony Brook further advance its research mission, as well as future research development efforts, including medical, climate science, and defense-focused opportunities.  Please join me in thanking Miguel for serving in this interim role, and offer him your support during this transition period.

NIH Extramural Nexus

Increases for National Research Service Award Stipends and Childcare Subsidies

We are committed to sustaining the vitality of the future biomedical research workforce, including providing appropriate support and addressing the many challenges faced by postdoctoral scholars in biomedicine. As part of this commitment, we are pleased to announce stipend and childcare subsidy increases for the over 17,000 early career scholars supported on NIH Kirschstein National Research Service Awards (NRSAs) ( NOT-OD-24-104 ). Stipends will be raised by 4% for predoctoral trainees and by 8% for postdoctoral scholars in fiscal year (FY) 2024 compared to last year), the most substantial year over year increase since FY 2017. Additionally, the childcare subsidy will be increased by an additional $500 (from $2500 to $3000) in FY24.

Appropriate support for early career researchers is something we take seriously. The Advisory Committee to the NIH director (ACD) , following thoughtful deliberations on re-envisioning the NIH-supported postdoctoral experience, reiterated that financial concerns were a topmost challenge for postdoctoral scholars. Echoing sentiments made in their final report from last December (see recommendation 1.1), lack of appropriate support dissuades some individuals to pursue a research career because of the negative effects on financial security.

The new stipend levels begin at $61,008 and are upwardly adjusted based on years of experience. In addition to higher stipend levels, there is also a modest $200 increase in training-related expenses and institutional allowances . Tuition and Fees for all educational levels remain unchanged from last year.

This is a significant step given a relatively flat NIH budget (see this recent blog about the interplay between budgets and success rates). The approach allows for an immediate stipend increase without drastic cuts to the number of available awards. As appropriations and budget realities allow, our goal is to reach the ACD recommended stipend levels (around $70,000 per year for postdoctoral scholars) in the coming years.

As we move toward that goal, institutions should note that:

• As noted in the NIH Grants Policy Statement (e.g., 11.2.10.1), “Kirschstein-NRSA fellows receive  stipends  to defray living expenses.  Stipends  may be supplemented by an institution from non-Federal funds provided this supplementation is without any additional obligation for the fellow.”
• Recipient institutions are reminded that they are not prohibited from hiring NRSA trainees and fellows as employees or provide them with benefits consistent with what the institution provides others at similar career stages.

Raising NRSA stipends and childcare subsidies are only two ways we are committed to fostering a strong and robust future workforce. We will continue to assess our policies and procedures. We anticipate releasing a request for information (RFI) in the near future to seek input on specific recommendations from the ACD.

Read the NIH press release for more.

RELATED NEWS

Is this increase only for NRSA fellows or all fellows supported by NIH RO1 grants?

Another unfunded mandate by NIH. Great idea in theory but without also increasing funding this is another hit to an already stressed research climate.

As far as I can tell, the child care subsidy (which is a great idea) is not available to trainees supported by other mechanisms (e.g., R01s). Is that correct? If so, why?

Is this increase only for new awards, or will the new rates be applied to current awards? If applied to current awards, will it be done at the start of a new budget year, or will current awards be revised with the increase?

NIH keeps ignoring the biggest problem facing NRSA F32/T32 recipients: their stipends cannot be used by host institutions as conditions for employment, preventing institutions from offering equal benefits to postdocs who receive these “prestigious” awards. Just change the rule, and if you refuse, then it would honestly be better to get rid of the funding mechanisms and create something new that didn’t have this one ridiculous clause (11.2.9.2) that causes so much pain and frustration. Until this happens, then all other announcements on these awards are mere hand-waving and shadow play.
