This study examines the viability of a voluntary, multi-hub analysis of the CTSA education common metric on trainee and scholar engagement across five New York City-based sites or “hubs.” Using a structured framework for collaboration and fieldtested operational guidelines, a team of evaluators dubbed “The Gotham Group” pooled deidentified common education data to assess post-training research engagement and demographic representation. Their primary objective was to establish a sustainable model for independent data-sharing without national mandates or technical support. A secondary goal was to reassess the metric’s usefulness as an impact benchmark. Results showed that NYC education engagement percentages remained stable despite institutional differences, suggesting the metric’s viability for regional comparison. More importantly, the collaboration itself proved as valuable as its outcomes, fostering professional relationships, facilitating knowledge exchange, and strengthening evaluation capacity within and across the hubs. This study highlights the potential of voluntary data-sharing partnerships to overcome data silos and to create valuable networks driving continuous improvement in translational science.  \nIntroduction  \nMutual collaboration is a cornerstone of the NIH-funded Clinical and Translational Science Award (CTSA) Program, a nationwide initiative to improve the efficiency and impact of clinical and translational research [1] administered by the National Center for Ad","cbCaifmQ6QeDLdFR","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaifmQ6QeDLdFR","pdf",285869,"English","# Introduction\n# CTSA evaluation\n## Common Metrics Initiative (CMI) context\n## Voluntary multi-hub approach description","[{\"question\":\"What problem does the Gotham approach address in CTSA evaluation?\",\"answer\":\"It targets institutional silos that hinder data-sharing and benchmarking, limiting the ability to compare education and research engagement across hubs.\"},{\"question\":\"How was data shared and analyzed in this study?\",\"answer\":\"Evaluators pooled deidentified CTSA education common metric data across five New York City hubs using structured collaboration and field-tested operational guidelines.\"},{\"question\":\"What were the primary and secondary goals of the Gotham Group?\",\"answer\":\"Primary was establishing a sustainable independent data-sharing model without national mandates or technical support; secondary was reassessing the metric’s usefulness as an impact benchmark.\"}]","Bridging barriers, integrating insights: The Gotham approach to CTSA collaborative evaluation | PDF",1790687557,18]
