项目摘要

The NIH Medical Education Partnership Initiative in Nigeria (MEPIN) provides an opportunity to address many of the challenges facing the Nigerian education institutions today with the overall goal of improving and Strengthening the medical education system in the country. With the existing human, material and infrastructural resources already provided through the PEPFAR program and the research skills provided by 2 of the partners' Fogarty AITRPs, the MEPIN will enhance the knowledge and skills of students and medical graduates to effectively meet and sustain the specific health care needs of Nigeria. The University of Ibadan is the lead medical school with partners including: University of Jos, University of Nigeria, University of Maiduguri, Ahmadu Bello University, University of Lagos, the AIDS Prevention Initiative Nigeria Ltd, Northwestern University and the Harvard School of Public Health. All institutions making up the MEPIN consortium have been long-term development partners in the Harvard PEPFAR program. The specific aims of the proposal are: 1) Evidence based revision, updating and re-structuring of the current medical education program including: MBBS [MD equivalent]. Bachelor of Dental Surgery, Nursing, Pharmacy and Basic Medical Laboratory Sciences; 2) Develop a health issues training program for young adults using pre- medical, nursing and health professional students as a model; 3) Develop specific mentoring, skill-building, and continuing medical education programs for post-graduate students and faculty; 4) Enhance the multi- disciplinary research capacity for post graduate students and faculty by implementing directed career- oriented programs; 5) Create MEPIN Research Fellowship programs. These new models for training and career development opportunities for post graduates and faculty will create an enabling environment to promote locally driven research. Once implemented, they will demonstrate a sustainable increase in the recruitment and retention of trained health professionals and academic faculty, increase the number of medical students who begin local practice, become members of academic faculty, and/or conduct research related to the implementation of PEPFAR and other public health priorities in Nigeria.

NIH 尼日利亚医学教育合作伙伴计划 (MEPIN) 提供了一个解决尼日利亚教育机构当今面临的许多挑战的机会，其总体目标是改善和加强该国的医学教育体系。凭借通过 PEPFAR 计划提供的现有人力、物力和基础设施资源以及两个合作伙伴 Fogarty AITRP 提供的研究技能，MEPIN 将增强学生和医学毕业生的知识和技能，以有效满足和维持特定的健康状况尼日利亚的护理需求。伊巴丹大学是领先的医学院，其合作伙伴包括：乔斯大学、尼日利亚大学、迈杜古里大学、艾哈迈杜贝洛大学、拉各斯大学、尼日利亚艾滋病预防倡议有限公司、西北大学和哈佛大学公共卫生学院。 MEPIN 联盟的所有组成机构都是哈佛 PEPFAR 计划的长期发展合作伙伴。该提案的具体目标是： 1）基于证据的修订、更新和重组当前的医学教育计划，包括：MBBS [医学博士同等]。牙科、护理、药学和基础医学检验科学学士； 2) 以医学预科、护理和健康专业学生为模型，制定针对年轻人的健康问题培训计划； 3) 为研究生和教师制定具体的指导、技能建设和继续医学教育计划； 4）通过实施有针对性的职业导向项目，增强研究生和教师的多学科研究能力； 5) 创建 MEPIN 研究奖学金计划。这些为研究生和教师提供培训和职业发展机会的新模式将为促进本地驱动的研究创造有利的环境。一旦实施，它们将可持续增加受过培训的卫生专业人员和学术人员的招募和保留，增加开始当地实践、成为学术人员的医学生数量，和/或开展与实施总统防治艾滋病紧急救援计划（PEPFAR）相关的研究以及尼日利亚的其他公共卫生优先事项。
