DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The overall goal of this project is to enhance research and training activities in enteric infectious disease at the Christian Medical College, Vellore through an application for a Global Infectious Disease Research and Training program from the Fogarty International Center. We aim to establish training in enteric infectious diseases-related research, based on a longstanding and ongoing collaborative partnership between investigators at Tufts-New England Medical Center (T-NEMC)/Tufts University School of Medicine (TUSM) and our institution, Christian Medical College (CMC) Hospital, Vellore, India, which has a strong independent and collaborative medical research program. Enteric infectious diseases continue to be a major cause of morbidity and mortality in India, and the goal of our collaborative research is to better understand, investigate, control and prevent diarrheal disease in south India. The project specifically aims to train scientists from southern India in a variety of disciplines necessary to identify and investigate gastrointestinal infections, to extend and reinforce research and training activities in enteric infectious disease at CMC, thereby developing and strengthening CMC as a regional center of excellence for enteric infectious disease research training. These specific aims will be accomplished by implementation of a multidisciplinary, needs-based research and training program which will train junior and mid-level faculty from India for periods from 6 weeks to 6 months, and towards formal degrees. Research projects will be developed and conducted by the returning trainees, under the mentorship of program faculty. Centers of excellence will be developed in multiple disciplines to support and complement enteric infectious disease research in southern India, building on the knowledge and skills of returning trainees. Complementation of research will be promoted through the establishment of a trainee and faculty network and multi-disciplinary discussion group. In-country workshops will be conducted by program faculty and returning trainees, at which additional Indian researchers and public health care workers will be trained. The development of centers of excellence in enteric infectious diseases research will increase global infrastructure and capacity for dealing with endemic and emerging enteric infectious diseases. The faculty and trainees will translate into public health practice in India, the results of the research carried out as a result of this and other collaborative research projects.

描述（由申请人提供）：该项目的总体目标是通过Fogarty International Center的全球传染病研究和培训计划的申请来增强基督教医学院肠道传染病的研究和培训活动。我们的目标是基于Tufts-New England医学中心（T-NEMC）/TUFTS大学医学院（TUSM）和我们的机构，基督教医学院（CMC）医院，印度Vellore，印度India India India In Indial Indepentally Indepentally Indepenlitation Inderpeality Indepentally和合作计划的长期合作和持续的合作伙伴关系，建立与肠道传染病相关的研究培训。肠道传染病仍然是印度发病率和死亡率的主要原因，我们合作研究的目标是更好地理解，调查，控制，控制印度南部的腹泻病。 该项目旨在培训来自印度南部的科学家的各种学科，以识别和调查胃肠道感染，扩展和加强CMC肠道传染病的研究和培训活动，从而发展和加强CMC作为肠道感染疾病研究培训的卓越区域卓越中心。 这些具体目标将通过实施多学科，基于需求的研究和培训计划来实现，该计划将培训印度的初级和中级教师，持续6个月至6个月，再到正式学位。在计划教师的指导下，返回的学员将开发和执行研究项目。卓越中心将在多个学科中发展，以支持和补充印度南部的肠道传染病研究，并以回归学员的知识和技能为基础。通过建立实习生和教师网络和多学科讨论小组，将促进研究的补充。国内研讨会将由计划的教职员工和返回的学员举办，在此讲习班将在此培训其他印度研究人员和公共卫生保健工作者。 肠道传染病研究中心卓越中心的发展将增加全球基础设施和处理流行和新兴肠道传染病的能力。教职员工和学员将转化为印度的公共卫生实践，这是该研究的结果和其他协作研究项目所进行的。
