OBJECTIVES/GOALS: Building community-engaged research capacity is imperative to improve translation, but not everyone exhibits capacity to conduct research, especially community. We modified the research institute planning and implementation process between 2022 and 2023 to increase community appeal and engagement. METHODS/STUDY POPULATION: The 2022 and 2023 Community-Engaged Research Institutes (CERI) varied in their formats. For 2022, we hosted a one-hour planning session with community-academic dyads from our Community Advisory Board facilitated by the CEO director and co-director. The 2022 CERI consisted of five sessions totaling 12 hours. The first session was hybrid, followed by four virtual sessions. For 2023, we hosted two, facilitated one-hour planning sessions with community partners who attended the 2022 CERI, based on feedback and attendance from 2022. The 2023 CERI was consolidated to a seven-hour, one-day hybrid session. RESULTS/ANTICIPATED RESULTS: In 2022, two community partners participated as CERI panelists. There were 95 unique attendees spanning five days. Of the 95 attendees, 67% (n=64) were researchers and 33% (n=31) were community members. In 2023, eight community partners participated as CERI panelists and presenters. There were 57 unique attendees, of which 61% (n=34) were researchers and 39% (n=23) were community members. When comparing attendance for 2022 (29%, n=28) and 2023 (86%, n=49), in-person attendance was increased by 57%. DISCUSSION/SIGNIFICANCE: In 2023, we focused on research capacity building for community partners to align with community engagement principles and increasing research impact across the translational spectrum. Partnering with community elevated appeal for community participation and an increase in-person attendance.
