 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Responsible conduct of research (RCR) is an essential requirement for research training in developed countries and most academic and funding institutions require researchers to obtain such training before starting a research project Jordan is one of the more academically established countries in the Middle East and North Africa (MENA) region with a high per-capita university education and progressive research agenda. It is also the hub for pharmaceutical drug development with over 20 companies generating generic drugs and exporting it to the region and globally. Jordanian pharmaceutical companies involve 7 Contract Research Organizations (CROs) in Jordan to conduct clinical drug trial and related human research. Non-communicable diseases (NCDs) are the leading cause of death in Jordan because of shifts to a Western lifestyle and better control of communicable diseases. Jordan has one of the highest smoking and obesity rates in the MENA region, which are the leading risk factors for NCDs. The training of researchers in the responsible conduct of research is essential for population public health research in prevention and clinical trials related to treatment of NCDs. However, research without appropriate ethical standards and training of researchers can produce e harm rather than benefit. Jordan does not have training in the area of responsible conduct of research and research ethics that is comparable to Western and more developed countries. Training the next generation of research scientists in Jordan will require sustained effort in research ethics training. The aims of this proposal are: To build capacity of individual learners by creating a master's level research ethics curriculum with a focus on public health and clinical drug trials; To develop institutional capacit by using a step- wise teaching methodology to deliver knowledge to learners; To develop regional capacity by translating curricular and educational material from English to Arabic; Create a database of research ethics case studies; and To establish a mentoring mechanism to continue the engagement of graduates. This program will be able to develop a new cadre of research ethics expertise in Jordan and the region. A minimum of 120 such graduates are expected to finish the program with a graduate-level certificate in research ethics. This will involve capacity building of the main partnering academic institution in Jordan, the Jordan University of Science and Technology which is among the highest ranking research university in Jordan and the region. This will provide the required paradigm shift in research ethics among researchers in Jordan and the region and promote further research productivity and provides better protection of research subjects but also raise the standard of RCR to be at the international level. The overarching goal of the program is to enable participants to make ethical decisions based on increased knowledge of acceptable standards of scientific conduct and integrity. While achieving this goal, the program will develop institutional and regional capacity n teaching methods and RCR.

 描述（由应用程序提供）：负责任的研究（RCR）是发达国家研究培训的必不可少的要求，大多数学术和资助机构要求研究人员在开始研究项目之前，是中东和北非地区（MENA）地区更准确地建立的研究项目之一，该项目是每人较高的人均大学教育和进步研究研究的国家之一。它也是药物开发的枢纽，有20多家公司生成仿制药并将其出口到该地区和全球。约旦制药公司涉及约旦的7个合同研究组织（CRO）进行临床药物试验和相关的人类研究。由于转移到西方的生活方式并更好地控制可传播疾病的原因是，非通信疾病（NCD）是约旦死亡的主要原因。约旦在北非地区的吸烟和肥胖率最高，这是NCD的主要危险因素。研究人员在负责任的研究中的培训对于与NCD治疗有关的预防和临床试验中的人群公共卫生研究至关重要。但是，没有适当的道德标准和研究人员培训的研究可以产生EHARM而不是收益。约旦在负责任的研究和研究伦理领域没有与西方和更发达国家相提并论的培训。培训约旦的下一代研究科学家将需要在研究伦理培训中持续努力。该提案的目的是：通过创建硕士水平的研究道德来增强个人学习者的能力 课程侧重于公共卫生和临床药物试验；通过使用逐步的教学方法来发展机构电容，向学习者提供知识；通过将课程和教育材料从英语转换为阿拉伯语来发展区域能力；创建研究伦理案例研究的数据库；并建立一种心理机制来继续毕业生的参与。该计划将能够在约旦和该地区开发新的研究道德专业知识。预计至少有120名此类毕业生将通过研究伦理学的研究生级证书完成该计划。这将涉及约旦科学技术大学的主要合作伙伴学术机构的能力建设，该大学是约旦和该地区排名最高的研究大学之一。这将为约旦和该地区的研究人员之间的研究伦理范式转变，并促进进一步的研究生产力，并为研究对象提供更好的保护，同时提高RCR的标准，达到国际水平。该计划的总体目标是使参与者能够基于对科学行为和正直的可接受标准的知识的增加做出道德决定。在实现这一目标的同时，该计划将开发机构和区域能力N教学方法和RCR。
