This application proposes continued funding of the Harvard University Center for AIDS Research (HU CFAR). HU CFAR represents each of the Harvard affiliated schools and hospitals, including Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, Beth Israel Deaconess Medical Center, Children's Hospital Boston, the Immune Disease Institute, Massachusetts General Hospital, Brigham & Women's Hospital, Lemuel Shattuck Hospital, and the New England Primate Research Center. HU CFAR's goals are: 1) to consolidate and expand existing collaborations among the diverse and highly successful HU-affiliated HIV/AIDS researchers, 2) to promote new interactions and innovative research initiatives capable of more effectively addressing key AIDS research questions and 3) to attract and support the next generation of young scientists into HIV research. HU CFAR builds collaborations and provides infrastructure support to coordinate and address emerging research opportunities in basic, clinical, behavioral, and translational AIDS activities. Research emphasis among investigators includes studies of molecular virology, pathogenesis, host immune responses, epidemiology, treatment, vaccines and prevention. CFAR funding will provide administrative resources to address the most significant scientific questions in AIDS in six identified Scientific Programs: Behavioral and Social Sciences, Clinical Epidemiology and Outcomes Research, International, Pathogenesis, Therapeutics, and Vaccines. Five core facilities have also been identified for continued HU CFAR support: Clinical, Molecular Virology/Genomics, Immunology, Biostatistics, and Small Animal Containment. In addition, the Administrative Core will provide strategic planning and fiscal oversight; the Developmental Core will support innovative pilot projects related to the goals of the scientific programs. HU CFAR will continue to expand, promote, and facilitate collaborative, multidisciplinary activities in AIDS research among CFAR members as the Harvard University model for collaborative inter-institutional interactions. Future planned activities include the development of junior investigators, expansion of the Behavioral and Social Sciences Program, development of the Molecular Virology/Genomics Core facilities, expansion of access to international clinical specimens, expansion of international research and educational activities, community outreach activities and further collaborations with other CFARs.

该申请提出了哈佛大学艾滋病研究中心（HU CFAR）的持续资助。 HU CFAR代表每个哈佛大学的学校和医院，包括达纳 - 法伯癌症研究所，贝丝·伊斯雷尔女执事医疗中心，波士顿儿童医院，免疫疾病研究所，马萨诸塞州综合医院，布里格姆医院，莱梅尔·沙塔克医院以及莱米尔·沙塔克医院以及 新英格兰灵长类动物研究中心。 Hu CFAR的目标是：1）巩固和扩大与HU相关的HIV/AIDS研究人员之间的现有合作，2）促进新的互动和创新的研究计划，能够更有效地解决关键AIDS研究问题，3）以吸引和支持下一代年轻科学家进入HIV研究中的年轻科学家。 Hu CFAR建立合作，并提供基础设施支持，以协调和解决基本，临床，行为和转化艾滋病活动的新兴研究机会。研究人员之间的研究重点包括分子病毒学，发病机理，宿主免疫反应，流行病学，治疗，疫苗和预防的研究。 CFAR资金将提供行政资源，以解决六个确定的科学计划中艾滋病中最重大的科学问题：行为和 社会科学，临床流行病学和结果研究，国际，发病机理，治疗学和疫苗。还确定了五个核心设施以继续提供HU CFAR支持：临床，分子病毒学/基因组学，免疫学，生物统计学和小动物遏制。此外，行政核心将提供战略计划和财政监督；发展核心将支持与科学计划目标相关的创新试点项目。 Hu CFAR将继续扩展，促进和促进CFAR成员中艾滋病研究中的合作，多学科活动，作为哈佛大学合作组织间互动的模型。未来计划的活动包括开发初级研究人员，扩大行为和社会科学计划，分子病毒学/基因组学核心设施的发展， 扩大获得国际临床标本的机会，扩大国际研究和教育活动，社区外展活动以及与其他CFAR的进一步合作。
