项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The burden of HIV and opportunistic infections (Ol), particularly Mycobacterium tuberculosis (TB) are profoundly eroding infant survival, life expectancy, the economy and health care in Sub-Saharan Africa. Clinical, operational and translational research are recognized as essential responses to the epidemic. However, resource constraints, economic and health priorities limit capacity to train effective investigators and scientists. Research training and increased opportunities for researchers to develop internationally competitive skills are essential for effective responses to the HIV and TB epidemics. The proposed ICOHRTA collaboration between the Biomedical and Research Training Institute (BRTI), University of Zimbabwe (UZ) and Stanford University will provide clinical, laboratory, epidemiological, statistical and operational research training in an academic framework. The primary aim is to enable young African scientists to improve their research capacity: to design, implement and report on meaningful and relevant research. In collaboration with current clinical trials in HIV and TB prevention and treatment, the program will provide three critical areas of training: 1) Support and attachment of students to active clinical and laboratory research projects in Zimbabwe including field, laboratory, clinical, operational and health systems' delivery studies focused on prevention and treatment of HIV, TB, and Ol. 2) For post-graduate clinicians, a 2-year mentored clinical experience in HIV, TB and opportunistic infections and the opportunity for practical clinical experience in HIV clinical trials, prevention and care at Stanford University, the University of Colorado, the Children's Hospital of Oakland, and other US-medical schools and hospitals. 3) Training and experience in research for post-doctoral fellows from the US who will participate in the BRTI short-training courses as part of ongoing, substantial mentored clinical research with US and UZ faculty-investigators. To increase access to literature and developments in treatment and prevention, the program will develop, test and evaluate internet-based training and teaching tools to access interactive courses and training in good clinical practice, epidemiology, basic science, ethics, and translational research on the web. The aim is to equip students in the health sciences and young clinicians from Zimbabwe and the US to meet the challenges of these devastating epidemics through robust training in research methods and participation in clinical trials, operational and laboratory studies in Zimbabwe.

描述（由申请人提供）：艾滋病毒和机会性感染的负担（OL），尤其是结核分枝杆菌（TB）的负担深远侵蚀了婴儿的生存，预期寿命，撒哈拉以南非洲的经济和医疗保健。临床，运营和转化研究被认为是对流行病的基本反应。但是，资源限制，经济和健康优先级限制了培训有效研究人员和科学家的能力。研究培训并增加了研究人员发展国际竞争技能的机会，对于对艾滋病毒和结核病流行病的有效反应至关重要。拟议的ICOHRTA生物医学和研究培训研究所（BRTI），津巴布韦大学（UZ）和斯坦福大学之间的合作将在一个学术框架中提供临床，实验室，流行病学，统计和运营研究培训。主要目的是使年轻的非洲科学家提高其研究能力：设计，实施和报告有意义的和相关的研究。与当前的艾滋病毒和预防和治疗方面的临床试验合作，该计划将提供三个关键的培训领域： 1）支持和依恋津巴布韦的活跃临床和实验室研究项目包括现场，实验室，临床，运营和卫生系统的交付研究，重点是预防和治疗艾滋病毒，结核病和OL。 2）对于研究生临床医生，艾滋病毒，结核病和机会主义的2年指导临床经验感染和在HIV临床试验，预防和斯坦福大学，科罗拉多大学，奥克兰儿童医院和其他护理美国医学学校和医院。 3）美国将参加的研究和研究经验 BRTI简短培训课程是正在进行的，大量指导的临床研究的一部分 UZ教职员工。为了增加对治疗和预防治疗和预防方面的文献的获取和发展，该计划将开发，测试和评估基于互联网的培训和教学工具，以获取互动课程和良好临床实践，流行病学，基础科学，道德和翻译研究的互动课程和培训。目的是通过津巴布韦和美国的健康科学和年轻临床医生为学生配备学生，以应对这些毁灭性流行病的挑战，通过在研究方法中进行强有力的培训，并参与津巴布韦的临床试验，运营和实验室研究。
