项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This application is in response to RFA-MD-04-004 from the National Center on Minority Health and Health disparities (NCMHD) and the Fogarty International Center (FIC) of the NIH for a University of Puerto Rico (UPR) Minority Health and Health Disparities International Research Training (MHIRT) Program in Infectious Diseases and Molecular Biology. This competing renewal application program will include 10 research trainees, 75 % of which will be undergraduates, with the rest being doctoral and/or medical students or resident fellows. The UPR is the premier institution of higher learning for minority Hispanic students in the United States, and is first in the nation in graduating Hispanic Ph.Ds. The theme is around the broad area of international health problems focusing on molecular and immunological aspects of tropical medicine and parasitology, which are health problems that affect the populations of developing countries and of health disparities populations. This includes diseases of the poor and the disadvantaged as is human fascioliasis, which is a newly emerging disease, malaria, and HIV. Moreover, important structure-function studies of novel hemoglobins, melanosome biogenesis in human Hermansky Pudlak Syndrome, and regenerative processes in echinoderms as models for vertebrates, round out a broad range of research activities in molecular and developmental biology. The European and Canadian performance sites are of those currently or prospectively collaborating with faculty at the University of Puerto Rico Medical Sciences, Rio Piedras, and Mayaguez campuses which are the three doctoral/research campuses of the UPR system. These foreign sites include laboratories in Salamanca, Valencia, & Granada in Spain; INSERM in Paris, France; Edinburgh in the UK; Montreal, Canada; and Sydney, Australia. Training periods of 10-12 weeks or a semester with these outstanding investigators are contemplated.

描述（由申请人提供）：此申请是针对国家少数群体健康与健康差异中心（NCMHD）和NIH的RFA-MD-04-004响应的RFA-MD-04-004（NCMHD）和波多黎各大学（UPR）少数群体健康和健康研究培训培训（MHIRT）的Fogarty International Center（FIC）。该竞争性续签申请计划将包括10名研究学员，其中75％将是本科生，其余的是博士学位和/或医学生或居民研究员。 UPR是美国西班牙裔少数族裔学生的高等教育机构，在全国首位毕业了西班牙裔博士学位。主题围绕着国际健康问题的广泛领域，重点是热带医学和寄生虫学的分子和免疫学方面，这些问题是影响发展中国家人群和健康差异人群的健康问题。这包括对穷人和处境不利的疾病，就像人类筋膜病一样，这是一种新出现的疾病，疟疾和艾滋病毒。此外，新型血红蛋白的重要结构功能研究，人类Hermansky Pudlak综合征中的黑素体生物发生以及棘皮动物作为脊椎动物模型的再生过程，在分子和发育生物学中遍布了广泛的研究活动。欧洲和加拿大的表演网站是目前或前瞻性与波多黎各大学医学科学，里约皮德拉斯和玛雅格斯校园的教师合作的网站，这是UPR系统的三个博士/研究校园。这些外地包括西班牙萨拉曼卡，瓦伦西亚和格拉纳达的实验室；在法国巴黎的梅塞尔；英国的爱丁堡；加拿大蒙特利尔；和澳大利亚悉尼。考虑了10-12周或一个学期与这些杰出调查人员的培训期。
