项目摘要

This revised application for a MIDARP program at Howard University describes the Research Training Program in Drug Abuse and AIDS Prevention in Communities of Color which is designed to increase the capacity of faculty and students at Howard to conduct rigorous and competitive research in the prevention of drug abuse and HIV/AIDS in communities of color. The program will emphasize training in transdisciplinary research on relationships between environmental stress, biological responses, risk behaviors and health outcomes and will utilize collaborations with senior investigators in research intensive universities to mentor Howard faculty investigators. The MIDARP will also work closely with existing programs that link Howard faculty and students to research training opportunities to (1) increase knowledge and interest in drug abuse and AIDS prevention research among faculty and students in these programs and (2) utilize the resources of these programs to expand the range of training opportunities available to MIDARP investigators and students. Howard students will be introduced to drug abuse and AIDS prevention research and career development by augmenting existing drug abuse courses in the College of Arts and Sciences and the curriculum for medical, basic science, nursing, and pharmacy students to include information on drug abuse and AIDS prevention research.. We will also fund a pre-doctoral dissertation stipend and recruit students to serve as research assistants in the MIDARP pilot studies. The unique strengths of the program include the opportunity to (1) integrate education regarding drug abuse and AIDS prevention research into existing research training programs for faculty and students;(2) train individuals in diverse disciplines such as the health professions and sciences (i.e., medicine, basic sciences, pharmacy, nursing) who are less likely to pursue research careers in drug abuse and AIDS prevention research; and (3) support transdisciplinary research in drug use and AIDS prevention based on strong existing University research programs in genetics, physiology, and psychobiology. A transdisciplinary approach will be reflected in the MIDARP leadership that includes a Director who is a behavioral scientist specializing in research on environmental stress, drug use, and AIDS risk in communities of color and a Deputy Director who is an immunogeneticist with expertise in microbiology, and founding Director of the Human Genome Project at Howard University.

霍华德大学 MIDARP 计划的修订申请描述了研究培训有色人种社区药物滥用和艾滋病预防计划，旨在提高霍华德大学的教职员工和学生有能力进行严格和有竞争力的研究，以预防有色人种社区的药物滥用和艾滋病毒/艾滋病。该计划将强调跨学科培训研究环境压力、生物反应、危险行为和健康之间的关系成果并将利用与研究密集型大学的高级研究人员的合作来指导霍华德学院的调查员。 MIDARP 还将与链接 Howard 的现有计划密切合作教师和学生研究培训机会，以 (1) 增加对药物滥用的知识和兴趣以及在这些项目中对教师和学生进行艾滋病预防研究，以及（2）利用这些计划旨在扩大 MIDARP 调查人员的培训机会范围学生。霍华德学生将了解药物滥用和艾滋病预防研究和职业通过加强艺术与科学学院现有的药物滥用课程和医学、基础科学、护理和药学学生的课程包含有关药物滥用的信息和艾滋病预防研究。我们还将资助博士前论文津贴并招募学生担任 MIDARP 试点研究的研究助理。该计划的独特优势包括 (1) 将有关药物滥用和艾滋病预防研究的教育纳入现有的机会为教师和学生提供研究培训计划；(2) 培训不同学科的个人，例如卫生专业和科学（即医学、基础科学、药学、护理）不太可能从事药物滥用和艾滋病预防研究的研究工作； (3) 支持跨学科吸毒和艾滋病预防方面的研究以现有大学强大的研究项目为基础遗传学、生理学和心理生物学。 MIDARP 将体现跨学科方法领导层包括一位专门研究环境问题的行为科学家主任有色人种社区的压力、吸毒和艾滋病风险以及免疫遗传学家副主任拥有微生物学专业知识，也是霍华德大学人类基因组项目的创始主任。
