International Traineeships in AIDS Prevention Studies (ITAPS) PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT This new application for the International Traineeships in AIDS Prevention Studies (ITAPS) program, University of California, San Francisco will promote global HIV prevention research by enhancing the research skills and experiences of scientists from low- and middle-income countries (LMIC) currently engaged in international HIV research networks. Previous ITAPS programs have trained 316 early career investigators from 55 countries since 1989; trainees and alumni have cumulatively published over 4000 manuscripts. ITAPS has served as a catalyst for many to pursue further training, develop successful research proposals, and become leaders in their fields. The prevalence and incidence of HIV continue to be greatest in LMIC, and more trained local investigators are still needed to develop, implement and test HIV prevention strategies taking local context and culture into account. However, a large proportion of HIV research in LMIC continues to be spearheaded by investigators from the US and other high-income countries. Early-career LMIC scientists may be hampered by a lack of background in data analysis, manuscript writing, and long-term mentorship from their home institutions. We will address these issues by providing a new component of applied research experiences and mentoring activities for HIV LMIC investigators currently working within existing international HIV research networks. The applied research experiences consist of hands-on experience performing secondary data analysis of results from their primary research networks, supported by training in data management, biostatistics, and interpretation of results, and using these analyses to develop manuscripts for publication in peer-reviewed journals. We will also promote linkages and learning exchange between early-career UCSF investigators and ITAPS scholars to foster mutually supportive collaborations. The mentoring activities consist of ITAPS faculty closely mentoring trainees through in-person and distance one-on-one mentoring, as well as training more experienced LMIC investigators to become mentors themselves, thereby building in-country capacity. Our Specific Aims are: 1) To provide applied research experiences and research education for LMIC early-career investigators. We will support LMIC trainees to learn how to develop research questions, perform secondary data analysis and write manuscripts based on that data, using a combination of distance learning, mentorship, UCSF-based and in-country workshops, and on-line modules. 2) To provide mentorship activities for more advanced LMIC investigators. They will learn fundamental mentorship skills and apply these skills by supporting ITAPS trainees. Mentors-in-training will conduct in-country or regional workshops on data analysis, biostatistics and scientific writing, promoting local sustainability and multiplying the number of people trained. Over 3 educational program cycles, we will enroll 12 mentors-in-training and 21 trainees. Our new training program builds on the success of former ITAPS programs by providing in-depth training to prepare LMIC scientists to more independently and productively engage in research.

艾滋病预防研究国际培训（ITAPS） 项目概要/摘要 这项针对艾滋病预防研究国际培训 (ITAPS) 计划的新申请，大学 加利福尼亚州旧金山分校将通过提高研究技能和 目前从事国际艾滋病毒研究的低收入和中等收入国家（LMIC）科学家的经验 研究网络。之前的 ITAPS 项目已培训了来自 55 个国家的 316 名早期职业调查员 自1989年以来；学员和校友累计发表论文4000余篇。 ITAPS 已作为 成为许多人接受进一步培训、制定成功的研究计划并成为领域领导者的催化剂 他们的领域。中低收入国家的艾滋病毒流行率和发病率仍然最高，当地受过更多培训 仍需要调查人员根据当地情况和情况制定、实施和测试艾滋病毒预防策略 文化考虑在内。然而，中低收入国家的大部分艾滋病毒研究仍然是由 来自美国和其他高收入国家的调查人员。职业生涯早期的中低收入国家科学家可能会受到以下因素的阻碍 缺乏数据分析、手稿写作和长期在家指导的背景 机构。我们将通过提供应用研究经验的新组成部分来解决这些问题 为目前在现有国际艾滋病毒研究中工作的艾滋病毒中低收入国家研究人员提供指导活动 网络。应用研究经验包括执行二手数据的实践经验 在数据管理培训的支持下，分析其主要研究网络的结果， 生物统计学和结果解释，并利用这些分析来开发手稿以在 同行评审期刊。我们还将促进早期职业生涯 UCSF 之间的联系和学习交流 研究人员和 ITAPS 学者促进相互支持的合作。辅导活动包括 ITAPS 教职员工通过面对面和远程一对一辅导以及 培训更有经验的中低收入国家研究人员成为导师，从而在国内建立 容量。我们的具体目标是： 1) 提供应用研究经验和研究教育 LMIC 早期职业调查员。我们将支持 LMIC 学员学习如何提出研究问题， 结合距离进行二次数据分析并根据该数据撰写手稿 学习、指导、加州大学旧金山分校和国内研讨会以及在线模块。 2) 提供 为更高级的中低收入国家研究人员提供指导活动。他们将学习基本的指导技能 并通过支持 ITAPS 学员来应用这些技能。培训导师将在国家或地区进行 关于数据分析、生物统计学和科学写作的研讨会，促进当地可持续发展和倍增 受训人数。超过3个教育项目周期，我们将招收12名培训导师和21名 实习生。我们的新培训计划建立在之前 ITAPS 计划成功的基础上，提供深入的培训 为中低收入国家科学家提供培训，使其能够更独立、更高效地从事研究。
