DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The long-term objective of the Xiangya-UCLA HIV/AIDS Nursing Research Initiative is to enhance capacity at Xiangya School of Nursing (Central South University, Hunan, China) and affiliated institutions to conduct research addressing questions in HIV/AIDS nursing with a focus on mental health and management of cognitive/affective symptoms of HIV and concomitant conditions. Specific aims include 1) development of research expertise in a cadre of Chinese nurses and psychologists who will conduct collaborative HIV/AIDS behavioral research; and 2) enhancement of the institutional capacity for nursing, mental health and behavioral HIV/AIDS research, including rigorous measurement of biological outcomes. The research training plan comprises 1) long-term (9 month) post doctoral training in HIV behavioral studies for 8 Chinese investigators at UCLA; 2) medium term training (6 months) in measurement of biological outcomes for 1 Chinese laboratory fellow at Yale and UCLA; 3) part-time, long term, in-country training in behavioral research methods for a cohort of 20 Chinese nurses and psychologists; and 4) mentored research projects. The proposed program responds to and extends ongoing HIV/AIDS collaborations which have demonstrated the need for additional post doctoral training in order to conduct rigorous studies of emerging questions related to mental health and behavioral aspects of HIV/AIDS in China including measurement of biological outcomes. The rationale for the program is that while Xiangya has strengthened its doctoral studies program for nurses and psychologists, local expertise is limited regarding the behavioral research methods that are key to high quality investigations of psychosocial and self-management issues of interest to nurse-researchers and psychologists. The program links nursing and psychology in recognition of common academic interests and the existing relationship between these two disciplines among the partner institutions. The program design builds in collaboration, long term mentorship and ongoing support of trainees as they design, implement, and evaluate mentored research of immediate relevance to China and by extension to similar countries faced with maturing HIV epidemics. It is anticipated that this program will substantially increase the number of young and mid career nurse-scientists, psychologists, and others conducting research related to the mental health and behavioral aspects of HIV/AIDS. Increased capacity will be measured by the number of research projects conducted by trainees; peer reviewed publications and professional presentations; successful applications for external funding; and number of courses taught and individuals mentored by trainees.

描述（由申请人提供）：Xiangya-ucla HIV/AIDS护理研究计划的长期目标是提高Xiangya护理学院（中国中部，荷兰，中国湖南大学）的能力，并在艾滋病毒/艾滋病中进行研究，以对艾滋病毒/艾滋病的辅助护理进行研究，侧重于识别/影响力的心理健康和管理症状的症状和症状症状和症状。具体目的包括1）将在中国护士和心理学家干部开发研究专业知识，他们将进行合作艾滋病毒/艾滋病行为研究； 2）提高护理，心理健康和行为艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究的机构能力，包括严格测量生物学结果。研究培训计划包括1）在UCLA的8位中国研究者的HIV行为研究博士学位培训后的长期（9个月）； 2）在耶鲁大学和加州大学洛杉矶分校的1名中国实验室研究员的生物结果测量中，中期培训（6个月）； 3）为20位中国护士和心理学家组成的行为研究方法中的兼职，长期，国内培训； 4）指导研究项目。拟议的计划对持续的艾滋病毒/艾滋病合作做出了回应并扩展了，这表明需要进行额外的博士后培训，以便对中国艾滋病毒/艾滋病有关的新兴问题进行严格的研究，包括测量生物学成果。该计划的理由是，尽管Xiangya加强了其针对护士和心理学家的博士研究计划，但本地专业知识限制了对行为研究方法的限制，这些方法是对护士研究者和心理学家对心理社会和自我管理问题的高质量研究的关键。该计划将护理和心理学联系起来，以表彰伙伴机构之间这两个学科之间的现有关系。该计划的设计是通过合作，长期指导和受训者的持续支持，他们在设计，实施和评估与中国直接相关性的指导研究以及与成熟的HIV流行病相似的类似国家进行的研究。预计该计划将大大增加年轻和中期的护士科学家，心理学家以及其他与艾滋病毒/艾滋病的心理健康和行为方面有关的研究的人数。能力增加将通过学员进行的研究项目数量来衡量；同行审查了出版物和专业演讲；成功申请外部资金；以及由学员指导的人数和个人的课程数量。
