项目摘要

ABSTRACT Over the past five years, the UJMT Global Consortium – comprising the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, Johns Hopkins University, Morehouse School of Medicine, and Tulane University – has supported mentored training at 28 affiliated sites in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). By all core metrics, the UJMT fellowship program has been highly successful: 132 doctoral students and postdoctoral students trained, 109 manuscripts published (including 69 as first author), 204 conference abstracts presented, and ~$1.7 million in program co-funding raised. Over half of our postdoctoral fellows have taken academic positions after completing the program; many have successfully competed for research funding, including from the NIH, to become independently funded investigators. In the coming grant cycle (2017-2022), we will expand upon these strengths to further build capacity in global health research. First, we will enrich the pool of talented US and LMIC investigators committed to solving global health problems. We will recruit doctoral students and postdoctoral fellows from 33 domestic training programs (i.e., T32) and 17 international programs (i.e., D43, R25) affiliated with our institutions. We will provide 12-month, intensively mentored field opportunities that connect trainees with experts across a wide range of scientific areas and disciplines. We will continue to foster research in HIV/AIDS, non-communicable diseases, emerging infections, cancers, mental health, neurologic disorders, and women's health. Second, we will implement and iteratively improve a program curriculum tailored to the professional development goals of trainees, alumni, and mentors. We will build upon the activities of our current program (e.g., scientific writing, webinars, core skills checklists), while enhancing new areas such as cultural competency and global research ethics. We will also dedicate resources to improving mentorship within our program, including support for trainees and mentors alike. Third, we will strategically allocate resources to support LMIC site capacity building. We will competitively award funds for workshops and short courses, specialty skills training, and equipment to support long-term research infrastructure. We will collaborate with existing D43 training programs in our focus countries to maximize the impact of our investments. In countries with high capacity (e.g., Malawi, Peru, Uganda), we will help to align and coordinate ongoing activities; in countries with fewer dedicated resources for capacity building (e.g., Ghana, Sierra Leone), we will facilitate South-South and North-South partnerships to identify gaps and prioritize needs for future grant support. Our program leverages a unique set of resources, training faculty, and sites that directly further four of the five strategic goals set forth by the Fogarty International Center in 2014: building research capacity, supporting implementation science, advancing research on communicable and non-communicable diseases, and forming partnerships to advance global health research.

抽象的在过去的五年中，UJMT全球财团 - 完成北卡罗来纳大学教堂的大学希尔，约翰·霍普金斯大学，莫尔豪斯医学院和杜兰大学 - 已支持在低收入国家（LMIC）的28个会员地点进行了指导的培训。从所有核心指标中， UJMT奖学金计划非常成功：132名博士生和博士后学生培训，出版的109份手稿（包括69名作为第一作者），204个会议摘要和约1.7美元百万计划共同筹集了资金。我们的博士后研究员的一半以后担任学术职位完成程序；许多人成功争夺研究资金，包括从NIH到成为独立资助的调查员。在即将到来的赠款周期（2017-2022）中，我们将扩展这些在全球卫生研究中进一步增强能力的优势。首先，我们将丰富我们的才华横溢的我们和 LMIC调查人员致力于解决全球健康问题。我们将招募博士生和来自33个国内培训计划（即T32）和17个国际计划（即D43， R25）与我们的机构有关联。我们将提供12个月的强度修补现场机会将学员与各种科学领域和学科的专家联系起来。我们将继续培养艾滋病毒/艾滋病，非通信疾病，新兴感染，癌症，心理健康，神经系统的研究疾病和妇女健康。其次，我们将实施并迭代改进课程课程针对受训者，校友和导师的专业发展目标量身定制。我们将建立在我们当前计划的活动（例如，科学写作，网络研讨会，核心技能清单），同时增强了新的文化能力和全球研究伦理等领域。我们还将专门用于改进我们的计划中的遗产，包括对受训者和Menors的支持。第三，我们将在战略上分配资源以支持LMIC站点能力建设。我们将竞争性地为研讨会授予资金短期课程，专业技能培训和设备，以支持长期研究基础设施。我们将与我们重点国家的现有D43培训计划合作，以最大程度地提高我们的影响投资。在高容量（例如马拉维，秘鲁，乌干达）的国家中，我们将帮助和协调正在进行的活动；在能力建设资源较少的国家（例如，加纳，塞拉） Leone），我们将促进南北和南北的合作伙伴关系，以确定差距并优先考虑。未来的赠款支持。我们的计划利用了一套独特的资源，培训教师和直接的网站 Fogarty International Center于2014年提出的五个战略目标中的四个：建设研究能力，支持实施科学，推进有关沟通和非交流的研究疾病和建立伙伴关系以推进全球健康研究。
