OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Team science competencies are not well-defined for nonfaculty staff of Clinical Research Professionals (CRPs) who conduct research. Using an existing framework, our work has determined skills associated with team science competencies as related to CRPs. Our team also outlined examples of those skills on a fundamental, skilled, and advanced level. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The team consists of both CRPs and those working in the Team Science space. This team used a modified Delphi approach to determine the skills and leveling examples of each team science competency. The team broke into four groups and was assigned 3-4 competencies each. Each group determined skills needed to support (exhibit, promote) each competency and then described an example of this skill at the fundamental, skilled, and advanced levels. Once each group was finished with their assigned competencies, they were re-assigned to a different group for review and changes. Finally, team science and CRP experts reviewed the skills and levels. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Our results are a rubric that defines 3-5 practical skills per described competency. These skills are needed to support and promote each competency as a CRP. An additional outcome from this work includes examples of each skill at the fundamental, skilled, and advanced levels in a CRP’s career. Each leveled example is described in a concise, actionable way using Bloom’s taxonomy. This rubric is meant to be easily understood, very useable and able to be used in conjunction with existing CRP competency frameworks. By using Bloom’s taxonomy, we set the stage for future educational programming in Team Science skill-building for clinical research professionals. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Team science concepts and competencies have been increasingly integrated into translational science teams. However, team science competencies related to CRPs have remained largely undefined. Our work helps to define these competencies for CRPs in a practical way. Our rubric fills gaps in, and builds on, existing CRP competency frameworks.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: To test whether implementing DASH-aligned meals in a congregate meal program, combined with Self-Measured Blood Pressure (SMBP) monitoring, lowers systolic blood pressure in community-living seniors at two senior centers. Secondary Aims included cognitive and behavioral change, and attention to client preferences. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The Carter Burden Network (CBN) provides services and congregate meals to older adults in NYC, many with low income, and unmet health needs. Eligible participants at two CBN sites, aged 60 or older and consuming >4 congregate meals/week, were recruited. After baseline assessments, participants received DASH-aligned meals onsite, education on nutrition and BP management, and personal devices and support for self-measured blood pressure (SMBP) monitoring. Primary outcome data (BP measured by health professional) was collected at Month 1, with secondary assessments at Months 3 and 6. Staff downloaded SMBP data regularly. Study surveys tracked cognitive and behavioral changes. Qualitative feedback from a project Advisory Committee, participants and study partners was collected throughout implementation. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: 97 Participants enrolled (49% White, 32% Black, 19% Other races; mean age 73). At Baseline, 67% were overweight/obese; 80% were hypertensive (32% Stage I; 48% Stage 2). Primary outcome: Mean change in systolic BP at Month 1 compared to Baseline, was -4.41 mmHg (n= 61; p=0.07). By multiple regression analysis, change in BP at Month 1 was associated with BMI, age, and baseline blood pressure (p= .02, .04, .00, respectively). SMBP: Mean change in systolic SMBP by End-of-Study was -6.9 mmHg (p=.003). 56% participants completed SMBP through Month 1 and 30% to End-of-Study. Mean frequency of > 1 SMBP measure/day was 3 days/week. Women (n= 22, 88%) and Black participants (n= 15, 60%) were more likely to continue taking their home blood pressure measurements to End-of-Study (p=.002, p=.037, respectively). DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: This study provides the first data to support the potential of DASH as part of an effective community-implemented program for seniors and demonstrates the feasibility of implementing a multi-component intervention using existing congregate meal programs at senior centers that can reach minority and low-income communities.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Dietary approach to stop hypertension (DASH) is a proven intervention to treat hypertension. Despite years of research the immediate physiologic response to its implementation was never characterized.This translational trial describes the biological pathway from nutrition through hormons, urine electrolytes and blood pressure reduction. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: A single center interventional trial. Stage 1 hypertensive otherwise healthy volunteers were admitted for 14-days, transitioning from American style diet to DASH diet. Nutritional habits were assessed with food frequency questionnaires, and menus designed according to the guidelines of the National Heart Blood and Lung Institute (NHBLI) of the National Institute of Health (NIH). Data were collected daily for vital signs, blood and urine. Participants completed two 24-hour ABPM on days 1,10, and two 24-hour urine collections in parallel. We conducted a follow up visit two weeks after discharge. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: 9 volunteers (78% male, 89% Black individuals) completed the protocol. During an inpatient stay, they consumed a mean daily potassium intake of 5.6 g (±0.7g) and 2.6 g (±0.3g) of Sodium. Serum Aldosterone increased from day 0 (mean 8.3, range 2.8-18.9) to day 5 (mean 17.8, range 10.2-27.2) after intervention, and decreased on day 11 (mean 11.5, range 4.8-18.2) despite continuous exposure (p-value=0.002). The urine electrolyte ratio of ([Na]/[K]) decreased from a mean of 3.5 before intervention to 1.16 on day 4, creating a statistically significant slope (p-value<0.001). Blood pressure by 24-hour ABPM decreased by 3.7 mmHg systolic BP and 2.3 mmHg diastolic BP from day 1 to 10 for the entire period, and for measures taken during sleep or awake time, assessed separately. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: Shifting from a high-sodium low-potassium diet to the opposite composition leads to serial physiological changes that are governed by aldosterone and result in blood pressure reduction. Urine electrolyte ratio reflects nutritional changes within 4 days of transition and should guide clinicians in assessing lifestyle modification adherence.

The ability to effectively lead an interdisciplinary translational team is a crucial component of team science success. Most KL2 Clinical Scholars have been members of scientific teams, but few have been team science leaders. There is a dearth of literature and outcome measures of effective Team Science Leadership in clinical and translational research. We focused our curriculum to emphasize Team Science Leadership, developed a list of Team Science Leadership competencies for translational investigators using a modified Delphi method, and incorporated the competencies into a quantitative evaluation survey. The survey is completed on entry and annually thereafter by the Scholar; the Scholar’s primary mentor and senior staff who educate and interact with the Scholar rate the Scholar at the end of each year. The program leaders and mentor review the results with each Scholar. The survey scales had high internal consistency and good factor structure. Overall ratings by mentors and senior staff were generally high, but ratings by Scholars tended to be lower, offering opportunities for discussion and career planning. Scholars rated the process favorably. A Team Science Leadership curriculum and periodic survey of attained competencies can inform individual career development and guide team science curriculum development.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: Our implementation model translates two evidence-based nutritional and behavioral interventions to lower blood pressure, into a community-based intervention program for seniors receiving congregate meals. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The Rockefeller University, Clinical Directors Network, and Carter Burden Network received an Administration for Community Living Nutrition Innovation grant to test whether implementation of DASH-concordant meals and health education programs together lower blood pressure among seniors aging in place. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: n=200, >60 yr, >4 meals/week at CBN; engagement of seniors/stakeholders in planning and conduct; Advisory Committee to facilitate dissemination; menus aligned with Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) and NYC Department for the Aging nutritional guidelines; interactive sessions for education in nutrition, BP management, medication adherence. Training in use of automated daily home BP monitors (Omron 20). Validated surveys at M0, M1, M3, M6. Taste preference and cost assessed through Meal Satisfaction (Likert scale) and Plate Waste measures. Primary Outcome: Change in Systolic BP (SBP) at Month 1; change in %BP controlled. Secondary: validated cognitive, behavioral, nutritional measures (SF-12, PQH-2), economics; staff/client satisfaction, trends and significant associations. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: n=94, x2 age =73 +/- 8 years, 65% female, 50% White, 32% Black/African American, 4% Asian, 1% American Indian, Alaskan Native, 13% Other, 32% Latino/a, 43% with income <$20,000. Mean SBP at Baseline was 137.87 +18.8 mmHg (range 98-191). Menus were adapted to provide 20% daily DASH requirements at breakfast, 50% at lunch. Participants attended classes in nutrition and medication management and were provided with and trained to use an automated home BP monitor. Meal satisfaction scores dipped briefly then met or exceed pre-DASH levels. Home BP data was downloaded every 2-4 weeks with social/behavioral support. The COVID-19 closures interfered with BP outcome data collection and meal service ceased. Primary outcome: x2 change in SBP at Month 1 = -4.41 mmHg + 18 (n=61) (p=0.713). Significant associations will be reported. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: Our community-academic research partnership implemented the DASH diet in congregate-meal settings to address uncontrolled hypertension in seniors. COVID-19 interrupted the study, but encouraging trends were observed that may inform refinement to this community-based health intervention for seniors.

ABSTRACT IMPACT: Understanding the mechanism underlying the DASH diet may shed light on the physiologic process by which nutrition influences blood pressure and potentially lead the way to new therapeutics that target ion channels. OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Hypertension is a disease of the westernized world, as it stems from lifestyle habits. Lower salt consumption reduces blood pressure, yet DASH diet is much more effective, lowering blood pressure as efficiently as one anti-hypertensive drug. The precise mechanism through which DASH achieves its effect is not understood, and this is the project goal. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: We hypothesize that exposing hypertensive volunteers to a high potassium and low sodium DASH diet will change the composition of renal ion channel in an aldosterone-dependent manner, leading to excretion of both sodium and potassium and a reduction in blood pressure. To assess how the nutritional change changes ion channel composition in the kidneys’ epithelium in aldosterone-induced manner, we will monitor urine exosomes, which contain epithelial cell membranes. We designed an in-hospital nutritional studies recruiting 20 volunteers. Patients will consume carefully designed menu, and measurements will be collected daily: blood pressure, biologic samples including blood and urine electrolytes, aldosterone, and urine for exosomes. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: We have collected data from 5 research volunteers so far.following exposure to the high potassium diet, Aldosterone blood levels increased while blood level of both potassium and sodium was maintained within normal limits. Urinary ratio of electrolytes, sodium:potassium was reversed 5-7 days following nutritional change from 6 to 1. Both manual and automated 24-hour blood pressure measurements confirmed blood pressure reduction following nutritional change. The following illustrates the impact the diet had on a participant’s 24-hour ambulatory blood pressure. Daily mean blood pressure was reduced from 120/76 mmHG to 112/68, mean awake blood pressure was reduced from 125/80 mmHG to 117/72 mmHG, and mean sleep blood pressure was reduced from 112/69 to 103/60 mmHG DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF FINDINGS: Understanding the mechanism underlying the DASH diet may shed light on the physiologic process by which nutrition influences blood pressure and potentially lead the way to new therapeutics that target ion channels. By introducing our participants to a healthier lifestyle, they could maintain lower blood pressure without requiring medication.

The concentration of radiocarbon (14C) differs between ocean and atmosphere. Radiocarbon determinations from samples which obtained their 14C in the marine environment therefore need a marine-specific calibration curve and cannot be calibrated directly against the atmospheric-based IntCal20 curve. This paper presents Marine20, an update to the internationally agreed marine radiocarbon age calibration curve that provides a non-polar global-average marine record of radiocarbon from 0–55 cal kBP and serves as a baseline for regional oceanic variation. Marine20 is intended for calibration of marine radiocarbon samples from non-polar regions; it is not suitable for calibration in polar regions where variability in sea ice extent, ocean upwelling and air-sea gas exchange may have caused larger changes to concentrations of marine radiocarbon. The Marine20 curve is based upon 500 simulations with an ocean/atmosphere/biosphere box-model of the global carbon cycle that has been forced by posterior realizations of our Northern Hemispheric atmospheric IntCal20 14C curve and reconstructed changes in CO2 obtained from ice core data. These forcings enable us to incorporate carbon cycle dynamics and temporal changes in the atmospheric 14C level. The box-model simulations of the global-average marine radiocarbon reservoir age are similar to those of a more complex three-dimensional ocean general circulation model. However, simplicity and speed of the box model allow us to use a Monte Carlo approach to rigorously propagate the uncertainty in both the historic concentration of atmospheric 14C and other key parameters of the carbon cycle through to our final Marine20 calibration curve. This robust propagation of uncertainty is fundamental to providing reliable precision for the radiocarbon age calibration of marine based samples. We make a first step towards deconvolving the contributions of different processes to the total uncertainty; discuss the main differences of Marine20 from the previous age calibration curve Marine13; and identify the limitations of our approach together with key areas for further work. The updated values for ΔR, the regional marine radiocarbon reservoir age corrections required to calibrate against Marine20, can be found at the data base http://calib.org/marine/.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS: The Rockefeller University CCTS, Clinical Directors Network (CDN), and Carter Burden Network (CBN) received a DHHS-Administration for Community Living Nutrition Innovation grant to test whether implementation of DASH-concordant meals and a program to enhance self-efficacy, could lower blood pressure among seniors aging in place. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: CEnR-Nav model to engage stakeholders, enroll seniors age >60 yr., eating 4 meals a week at 2 CBN congregate meal sites; Advisory Committee to facilitate dissemination; menus aligned with Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) and New York City Department for the Aging (DFTA) nutritional guidelines; interactive sessions for education (nutrition, blood pressure, medication adherence); Omron 10 home BP devices for daily home monitoring. Plate Waste and Meal Satisfaction (Likert scale) to assess taste preference and cost impact. Outcomes: Primary: Change in Systolic BP at Month 1; change in percent with controlled blood pressure. Secondary: change in validated measures of cognitive (e.g. SF-12, PHQ-2), behavioral (Home BP monitoring), nutritional (food frequency) variables, satisfaction, costs. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Menu alignment required multiple iterations. Plate Waste and Menu Satisfaction tools were developed. Site 1 enrollment began June 2019; educational sessions and home BP monitors and training were provided. Baseline mean blood pressure (Site 1) was 138/79 +20.5; (range: 7% hypertensive crisis, 36% stage 2 hypertension, 22% stage 1 hypertension, 22% elevated, and 13% normal). DASH-aligned meals began October 2019; Meal satisfaction declined briefly, chefs adjusted menus, and meal satisfaction rose to pre-intervention levels. Site 2 enrollment is ongoing; dietary intervention will start in 2020. Primary outcome data (change in BP) will be complete in March 2020. Secondary outcome data on social and behavioral impact of the interventions will also be presented. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: We leveraged our community-academic research partnership to conduct research addressing uncontrolled hypertension, an urgent unmet health need among seniors. The DASH Implementation Study can inform the broader aging services and healthcare community of the potential for congregate nutrition programs to improve cardiovascular health outcomes.

OBJECTIVES/GOALS:

1. 1. analyze urinary protein exosome content pattern before and during DASH diet.

2. 2. characterize urine electrolyte changes associated with changes in protein profiles, and hormonal changes before/after DASH diet.

3. 3. analyze the association of these changes to the DASH-related BP response.

METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: In this proof of concept study, hypertension stage 1 volunteers will receive a DASH based menu during 14 consecutive days of elective admission to the RU research hospital. Participants will complete a food frequency questionnaire (VioScreen) with a bionutritionist. Throughout the intervention period, participants will be assessed for blood pressure, plasma renin and aldosterone, and 24 hour urines for electrolytes, creatinine, protein, albumin and first morning urine collected for exosomes. Exosome analysis will be performed by a commercial lab. Proteome analysis will be conducted in the RU Mass-spectrometry service. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: The causal pathway we will elucidate hypothesizes that: 1) changes in diet affect blood electrolytes, and through these, aldosterone. 2) Aldosterone alters the expression of specific transporter proteins in the renal tubule; protein expression will be reflected in the urine exosome. 3) These transporters affect the excretion of electrolytes, as reflected by urinary ratio of sodium (Na) to Potassium (K). During consumption of the Western diet, the Na/K ratio is approximately 2-2.5, whereas we expect the urinary sodium/potassium ratio to be <1, when the participant is eating a DASH based diet. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This assay provides a clinical tool to assess dietary adherence, and the project will provide insights into the mechanism whereby DASH reduces blood pressure.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The Rockefeller University Center for Clinical and Translational Science (RU-CCTS), Clinical Directors Network (CDN), and Carter Burden Network (CBN), a multi-site senior services organization serving East Harlem, NY, formed a community-academic research partnership to characterize the health of the CBN seniors (many who are racial/ethnic minorities, low-income, and suffering from multiple chronic conditions) and to explore the use and associations of a measure of overall health status and frailty in this population. A simple validated measure of health status could standardize and streamline community-based translational research to study the impact of CBN’s services on health outcomes. The CCTS-funded Pilot Project aims to: 1) Engage CBN seniors and stakeholders in priority-setting, joint protocol development, research conduct, analysis and dissemination; 2) Characterize the health status of the CBN seniors using validated measures; 3) Establish an electronic database infrastructure for current and future research; 4) Understand how health and senior activities information can be used to implement programs to improve senior health and well-being. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: 1) We used Community Engaged Research Navigation (CEnR-Nav) methods to facilitate partnership development, and to engage CBN seniors and stakeholders in each step of the research; 2) Research staff conducted recruitment, informed consent, and physical assessments (e.g., pulse, blood pressure, BMI); and administered validated surveys to collect health status information. 3) Data were captured on a REDCap-based platform. The primary outcome, frailty, was measured by the validated Short Physical Performance Battery (SPPB). 4) Secondary outcomes include the association of use of services/activities with the primary outcome. Research participants consented to sharing of their health, demographic and services utilization data compiled by CBN staff and the NYC Department for the Aging (DFTA). DFTA provided comparison datasets of de-identified health and demographic data for clients attending other NYC DFTA-funded senior centers. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: 1) 43 residents and stakeholders engaged in partnership-building, study design and implementation. 2) 218 participants from two senior centers were enrolled. Mean age, 68 ± 11 years; 58% Hispanic; 33% African American, 23% White, 1% Asian, 18% Unknown, 17% Other; 69% reported <$20000 annual income; 40% had not completed high school; 30% scored as moderately or severely frail; 83% were overweight or obese; and 33% reported a history of diabetes. 84% had uncontrolled high blood pressure; many participants were previously aware of their hypertension diagnosis. 3) A REDcap database was developed to store historical and prospective data. 4) Across frailty categories, there was a significant difference in utilization of non-meal (p = 0.0237) and meal services (p = 0.0127) and there was an inverse proportional relationship between the number of meal and non-meal visits, and frailty. Additional associations among health status measures (e.g., SPPB, demographics, biological measures: pulse, blood pressure, BMI; psychosocial and nutritional scales) and CBN service utilization (i.e., meals vs. non-meals activities) will be presented. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: We developed a community-academic research partnership, infrastructure and capacity, built through our Community-Engaged (CEnR-Nav) model, to conduct a pilot study characterizing the health status and services utilization of low-income minority seniors. Our pilot study identified an urgent health priority, uncontrolled hypertension in 84% of CBN’s seniors. We then leveraged the team’s expertise and CBN’s meal services program to develop a research proposal for external funding to conduct a community-based multi-component intervention study. Replacement of a typical Western diet with the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet has been proven to reduce blood pressure in hypertensive and normotensive individuals in as little as 14 days, yet effective implementation has been lacking, and it is relatively untested in community-living seniors who receive their meals in settings such as CBN. We are also exploring mechanistic questions that relate to blood pressure control, such as the impact of the DASH diet on inflammation, which may lead to a better understanding of the underlying mechanism of action of the DASH diet. Our community partner, CBN, was awarded the DHHS-ACL nutrition innovation grant to conduct this 2-year study with CDN and RU-CCTS. The resulting study developed out of the community engaged pilot study represents a unique combination of community-centered care, within an implementation science framework (with embedded mechanistic measures under development). This is an example of the novel, full-spectrum approach to translational research that the RU-CCTS/CDN Community Engaged Research Core has been developing over the last decade. The research to characterize CBN clients’ health status is now being extended to address cardiovascular health by way of intervening on diet quality and food insecurity, a key component of the social determinants of health, in partnership with agencies outside of the healthcare delivery system. The outcomes of the DASH Diet implementation study will also serve to inform the broader aging service provider network and the healthcare community about the impact of senior center congregate meal composition and services on health outcomes.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Objective: The Rockefeller University Center for Clinical and Translational Science (RU-CCTS), Clinical Directors Network (CDN), and Carter Burden Network (CBN), a multisite senior services organization serving East Harlem, NY, formed a community-academic partnership to examine the use of a simple validated surrogate measure of overall health status and frailty in this population. Many CBN seniors are racial/ethnic minorities, low-income, and suffer from multiple chronic conditions, depression and food insecurity. Multiple biological, musculoskeletal, psychosocial and nutritional factors contribute to frailty, which has been defined variously in senior health outcomes research. The CTSA-funded Pilot Project aims to: (1) Engage CBN seniors and stakeholders in priority-setting, joint protocol development, research conduct, analysis, and dissemination; (2) Characterize the health status of the CBN seniors using validated measures; (3) Establish database infrastructure for current and future research; (4) Understand how health and senior activities information can be used to create programs to improve senior health. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Methods: (1) CEnR-Navigation, a collaborative program/process that consists of semistructured meetings and activities facilitated by expert Navigators, was used for partnership development and to engage Carter Burden seniors to refine priorities and research questions, provide feedback on study design and conduct, and analyze and disseminate results. (2) Standard physical measurements and validated survey instruments were used to collect health information; target enrollment is 240 seniors across 2 sites (1 hosted within a subsidized housing facility and Social Model Adult Day Program). (3) A REDCap-based platform was designed for data capture and import. Individual attendance at senior activities for the prior year was extracted from existing records. The primary outcome is frailty, as measured by validated walk/balance tests (Short Physical Performance Battery). Secondary outcomes include measures of engagement, and association of use of services/activities with the primary outcome. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: (1) In total, 29 residents and 14 other stakeholders engaged in partnership-building, study design and implementation. (2) From May to November 2017, 98 participants were enrolled from site 1 (a residential site). Enrollment at site 2 (a senior center), begun in November, is projected for February completion. Characteristics of site 1 participants: median age=63.6 years; Hispanic, 44.90% (44); White, 13.89% (10), Black, 62.50% (45); Asian, 4.17% (3); American Indian or Alaskan Native, 2.78% (2), and Other, 16.67% (12). Educational attainment: 51.04% (49) had not completed high school; 19.79% (19) were high school graduates; 18.75% (18) completed some college, and 10.42% (10) were college graduates. For the 85 participants reporting annual income: 64.71% (55) reported <$10,000; 28.24% (24) reported $10,000–$15,000; 7.06% (6) were among the ranges from $15,000 to $50,000. The average body mass index (BMI) was 30, which is obese. For 83.67% (82) of site 1 participants, the BMI was in the range of overweight or obese. Half of participants (49) reported health literacy barriers in the Single Item Health Literacy Survey. Demographics and Frailty assessments (walk and balance tests) for participants enrolled at both sites will be reported. (3) Activity participation data for July 2016–November 2017 were recovered for 507 sessions at site 1 and are being analyzed. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: Here we report progress in developing a sustainable community-academic partnership, infrastructure and research capacity with the CBN senior services organization, and characterizing this at-risk population, of whom 71% have a high school education or less, 93% live in extreme poverty, and 84% are overweight or obese. A simple validated frailty measure in seniors will enable the acceleration of community-based translational research addressing senior health, and examine changes in this measure in relationship to the utilization of senior services.

As the IAU heads towards its second century, many changes have simultaneously transformed Astronomy and the human condition world-wide. Amid the amazing recent discoveries of exoplanets, primeval galaxies, and gravitational radiation, the human condition on Earth has become blazingly interconnected, yet beset with ever-increasing problems of over-population, pollution, and never-ending wars. Fossil-fueled global climate change has begun to yield perilous consequences. And the displacement of people from war-torn nations has reached levels not seen since World War II.

OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: The Rockefeller University-Center for Clinical and Translational Science and Clinical Directors Network (RU-CCTS/CDN) community-academic-partnership engaged with Carter Burden Center for the Aging (CBCA), a multisite senior community services organization serving Upper Eastside and East Harlem, NY, to develop community-engaged research. Many seniors served by CBCA are racial/ethnic minorities, live in poverty, suffer from multiple chronic conditions, depression, and food insecurity; there is no simple measure routinely used to characterize the health/health risks of program participants. Multiple biological, musculoskeletal, psychosocial and nutritional factors collectively contribute to frailty a construct that is variously defined, and has been used as a surrogate or predictor for health outcomes. Aim 1: We will engage seniors, CBCA leadership, New York City Department for the Aging, staff and other stakeholders in research priority-setting, joint protocol writing, research conduct, analysis and dissemination to cultivate a population of elder stakeholders interested in designing and participating in this and future research. Aim 2: We will characterize the health status of the resident and nonresident populations by collecting data across 3 sessions to include validated cardio-metabolic, musculoskeletal, chronic condition prevalence, quality of life, psychosocial, and nutritional assessments. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: Stakeholders will be engaged through the process of Community Engaged Research Navigation and a series of meetings and exercises to refine priorities and research design, co-write the protocol, provide feedback on conduct, analyze and disseminate results of the project. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: Outcomes will include rates of participation and retention in assessments and engagement activities, themes from qualitative research, contributions to study design, placement of aims on the T0-T48 spectrum, social network analysis, classification of engagement on the spectrum of Community-based Participatory Research (CBPR) and partnership assessment. The primary outcome is frailty (6-minute walk test); We will examine associations among these measures with services utilization data captured electronically by CBCA. A key deliverable of this project will be a REDCap data capture platform that integrates and displays these measures that will be sustainable for CBCA. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE OF IMPACT: This practice-based research partnership will allow us to extract, replicate and extend the lessons learned about engaging stakeholders in generating hypotheses, operationalizing research, collecting and analyzing data, and disseminating results. The collaboration is built around generating and testing rigorous clinical an health services hypotheses that are derived from real-world practice-based needs and also incorporate basic science measures to embed and examine mechanistic hypotheses. Testing a simple to implement validated surrogate frailty measure will accelerate progress on evidence-based practices to test interventions that enhance healthy aging and serve as a model for future similar partnerships to form a network for community-based senior research. This work aligns with the RU-CCTS grant Hub Research goal to engage populations across the life span, including hard-to-reach and underserved populations, such as minority seniors.

Theoretical–computational studies of table-top laser-driven nuclear fusion of high-energy (up to 15 MeV) deuterons with ${}^{7} \mathrm{Li} $, ${}^{6} \mathrm{Li} $, and D nuclei demonstrate the attainment of high fusion yields within a source–target reaction design. This constitutes a source of Coulomb-exploding deuterium nanodroplets driven by an ultraintense femtosecond near-infrared laser and a solid hollow cylindrical target containing the second element. The source–target reaction design attains the highest table-top fusion efficiencies (up to $4\times 1{0}^{9} ~{\mathrm{J} }^{- 1} $ per laser pulse) obtained to date. The highest conversion efficiency of laser energy to nuclear energy ($1{0}^{- 2} $–$1{0}^{- 3} )$ for table-top DD fusion attained in the source–target design is comparable to that for DT fusion currently accomplished for ‘big science’ inertial fusion setups.
