DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Founded in 1963, the University Eduardo Mondlane (UEM) Faculty of Medicine is Mozambique's oldest and largest medical school, located in the nation's capital, Maputo. UEM has established a vibrant outcomes research partnership with the Vanderbilt Institute for Global Health (VIGH) within the HIV/AIDS work funded through the President's Emergency Plan for AIDS Relief (PEPFAR). UEM and VIGH propose to train a new generation of Mozambican researchers with a focus on HIV/AIDS implementation science, taking full advantage of the VIGH body of extramurally-funded work in Mozambique. VIGH faculty members have worked intensively with UEM since 2007 to train Mozambican research scientists at both UEM and Vanderbilt University (VU), and to launch high-impact public health interventions linked to the VIGH-led PEPFAR HIV scale-up program in Zamb�zia Province. Aligned with the goals of the FIC Fogarty HIV Research Training Program for Low-and Middle-Income Country (LMIC) Institutions to develop and strengthen the scientific leadership and expertise needed for HIV-related research at eligible LMIC institutions, we have designed a comprehensive training program that is built upon the foundations laid by our UEM-VIGH team to date. We expect to help raise UEM-led implementation science research and research training to a higher plane of productivity and quality. The UEM/VU AITRP (UV-AITRP) is designed to capacitate UEM faculty to become a highly functioning conduit for developing Mozambican research leaders. VIGH will assist UEM to capacitate both current and future faculty to teach and conduct HIV-focused implementation science research. Our Specific Aims are to 1) Enhance research capacity at the UEM Faculty of Medicine with a focus on HIV/AIDS implementation science research targeting 3 key areas - 1) clinical epidemiology/biostatistics, quality improvement/health services, and biomedical informatics, 2) Strengthen and expand the UEM faculty pool in the HIV/AIDS implementation science research, 3) Nurture innovative research by AITRP trainees/alumni to address HIV care and treatment scale-up via "Career Bridging" mentored research project opportunities and ongoing career development mentoring. The UV-AITRP will represent the first major investment in UEM graduate medical education and will be complementary to the current Mozambique Medical Education Partnership Initiative (MEPI, with UCSD) that focuses on post-graduate clinical training. The UV-AITRP will rather focus on graduate-level education and faculty development in Community Medicine. We describe our strong partnership with PEPFAR in Mozambique and the links we have with other NIH/FIC training programs. We further highlight our rationale for the training partners, our successes in past training through 19 years of our AITRP program history, and our success in leveraging training funds for securing substantial research resources for our graduates.

描述（由申请人提供）： Eduardo Mondlane 大学 (UEM) 医学院成立于 1963 年，是莫桑比克历史最悠久、规模最大的医学院，位于该国首都马普托，与范德比尔特研究所建立了充满活力的成果研究合作伙伴关系。全球卫生 (VIGH) 内的艾滋病毒/艾滋病工作由总统艾滋病紧急救援计划 (UEM) 和 VIGH 提议资助。培养新一代莫桑比克研究人员，重点关注艾滋病毒/艾滋病实施科学，充分利用 VIGH 在莫桑比克的外部资助工作机构，VIGH 教职人员自 2007 年以来一直与 UEM 密切合作，培训莫桑比克研究科学家。 UEM 和范德比尔特大学 (VU)，并启动与 VIGH 领导的赞比亚省 PEPFAR 艾滋病毒扩大计划相关的高影响力公共卫生干预措施。根据 FIC 福格蒂中低收入国家 (LMIC) 机构艾滋病毒研究培训计划的目标，旨在发展和加强符合条件的 LMIC 机构进行艾滋病毒相关研究所需的科学领导力和专业知识，我们设计了一项全面的培训该计划建立在我们的 UEM-VIGH 团队迄今为止所奠定的基础上，我们希望帮助将 UEM 主导的实施科学研究和研究培训提高到更高的生产力和质量水平。 （UV-AITRP）旨在使UEM教师成为培养莫桑比克研究领导者的高效渠道，VIGH将协助UEM当前和未来的教师有能力教授和开展以艾滋病毒为重点的实施科学研究。 1) 增强 UEM 医学院的研究能力，重点关注针对 3 个关键领域的艾滋病毒/艾滋病实施科学研究 - 1) 临床流行病学/生物统计学、质量改进/卫生服务，以及生物医学信息学，2) 加强和扩大 UEM 在艾滋病毒/艾滋病实施科学研究方面的师资库，3) 培育 AITRP 学员/校友的创新研究，通过“职业桥接”指导的研究项目机会来解决艾滋病毒护理和治疗规模扩大问题，以及UV-AITRP 将是对 UEM 研究生医学教育的首笔重大投资，并将对当前的莫桑比克医学教育合作伙伴计划（MEPI，与 UCSD）形成补充。 UV-AITRP 将重点关注社区医学领域的研究生教育和教师发展。我们进一步强调了我们与莫桑比克 PEPFAR 的牢固合作关系以及我们与其他 NIH/FIC 培训项目的联系。我们对培训合作伙伴的理由、我们在 19 年 AITRP 计划历史中过去培训中取得的成功，以及我们在利用培训资金为毕业生确保大量研究资源方面所取得的成功。
