项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Over the years, international agencies have dramatically increased their funding of research and training to deferent institutions in Uganda. However, it is observed that grants recipient institutions, individual researchers, students, and research administrators in Uganda have limited experience in electronic grant applications process, award management, fiscal accountability, and scientific reporting requirements for NIH and other international funding agencies. This situation is evident to most research and training institutions including Joint Clinical Research Centre (JCRC). It also noted that a lot is changing in regard to grants application guidelines and reporting regulations that require researchers informed at all times. This calls for strengthening of the Office of Research and Development (ORD) at JCRC and other institutions in Uganda. The JCRC is a nonprofit making organization founded in 1991 as a joint venture of institutions that include Makerere University and the Uganda ministries of defense, health and education. JCRC works with many collaborators to provide research expertise and is an international center of excellence in research in Africa. The mission of JCRC is to conduct quality medical research and training, provide equitable and sustainable HIV/AIDS care and other health care services in Uganda and internationally. Today, the research environment at JCRC is rigorous and active with quality collaborative research projects addressing a broad range of research questions mainly in the fields of biomedical and social sciences. In order to respond well to different grants regulations JCRC established a standalone office of research. This was born out of the fact that a strong central oversight is needed to make sure that grants and other research activities comply to international funding agencies regulations and national guidelines. The required grants conformity on awarded institutions is ever-growing, and possible irregularities should be handled in a timely manner so as to avoid any potential problems. This adds to the usual assistance provided to researchers to identify grant opportunities, writing applications, submitting grant proposals, administer awards, and overseeing grants compliances. The goal of this International Extramural Research Development Award (EARDA) grant application is to develop cadres of research administrators that can address current and future NIH and other funding agencies' grants policies and procedures, and to strengthen the research and grant administrative infrastructure at JCRC and its affiliated institutions. Broadly, proposed program activities involve strengthening Office of Research and Development (ORD). Specific objectives for proposal are i). To strengthen the research training capacity and administrative infrastructure of the Office of Research and Development (ORD) at Joint Clinical Research Centre ( JCRC) and the capability of its affiliated institutions. ii). To assist affiliated academic and research institutions in standardization and completing mandatory registration necessary for NIH electronic grant applications. iii). To foster and strengthen collaboration among social science, medical, clinical, and public health disciplines so that trainees can develop capacity to manage multi-disciplinary and interdisciplinary research. iv). To strengthen the capacity of the office of research and development personnel to spearhead the translation of research findings into practice and policy advocacy thereby ensuring that evidence-based interventions from operational research are shared and implemented efficiently in order to improve health services, and v). To provide the JCRC International Extramural Associate (IEA) with training on NIH Grantsmanship so as to obtain knowledge and skills required to effectively administer NIH and other agencies awards. Activities involve completing Distance Learning modules by the IEA and prior to IEAs three-week residency training at NIH. Distance Learning modules will include introduction to the NIH, NIH terminology and funding mechanisms, role of NIH officials, receipt and referral of grant applications, peer review process, program funding cycle, grants management basics, use of animals in research, and use of human subjects in research. The residency at NIH and onsite visit by the NICH staff shall be followed by a baseline training needs assessment and consultative meetings with all partner institutions before confirming the structure development plan. The plan involves equipping office of research at JCRC, Mbarara University of Science and Technology and Uganda Christian University Mukono. The JCRC research policy document shall be reviewed to match growing multidisciplinary and complex research projects in Uganda. Short training courses and seminars on: NIH focused grants writing and award management; Introduction to dissemination research and public engagement; Introduction to Research Ethics; How to utilize Facility based data for research and improving quality of service; and Training Trainers in NIH Grant Writing, submission and post Grant Award Management course.

描述（由申请人提供）：多年来，国际机构大幅增加了对乌干达不同机构的研究和培训资金。然而，据观察，乌干达的资助机构、研究人员个人、学生和研究管理人员在电子资助申请流程、资助管理、财政责任以及美国国立卫生研究院和其他国际资助机构的科学报告要求方面经验有限。这种情况对于包括联合临床研究中心（JCRC）在内的大多数研究和培训机构来说都是显而易见的。它还指出，赠款申请指南和报告规定正在发生很大变化，要求研究人员随时了解情况。这就需要加强 JCRC 的研发办公室 (ORD) 和乌干达的其他机构。 JCRC 是一个非营利组织，成立于 1991 年，是麦克雷雷大学和乌干达国防部、卫生部和教育部等机构的合资企业。 JCRC 与许多合作者合作提供研究专业知识，是非洲的国际卓越研究中心。 JCRC 的使命是在乌干达和国际上开展高质量的医学研究和培训，提供公平和可持续的艾滋病毒/艾滋病护理和其他医疗保健服务。如今，JCRC 的研究环境严谨而活跃，高质量的合作研究项目主要解决生物医学和社会科学领域的广泛研究问题。为了更好地应对不同的资助法规，JCRC 设立了一个独立的研究办公室。这是因为需要强有力的中央监督，以确保赠款和其他研究活动符合国际资助机构的规定和国家指导方针。获奖机构的资助合规性要求不断提高，对可能出现的违规行为应及时处理，避免出现潜在问题。这增加了向研究人员提供的常规协助，包括确定资助机会、撰写申请、提交资助提案、管理资助和监督资助合规性。这项国际校外研究发展奖 (EARDA) 拨款申请的目标是培养能够解决当前和未来 NIH 和其他资助机构的拨款政策和程序的研究管理干部，并加强 JCRC 和 JCRC 的研究和拨款管理基础设施。其下属机构。总体而言，拟议的计划活动涉及加强研究与开发办公室（ORD）。提案的具体目标是 i)。加强联合临床研究中心（JCRC）研发办公室（ORD）的研究培训能力和行政基础设施及其附属机构的能力。 ii).协助附属学术和研究机构标准化并完成 NIH 电子资助申请所需的强制注册。三）。促进和加强社会科学、医学、临床和公共卫生学科之间的合作，以便学员能够培养管理多学科和跨学科研究的能力。四）。加强研发人员办公室的能力，带头将研究成果转化为实践和政策倡导，从而确保来自业务研究的循证干预措施得到有效共享和实施，以改善卫生服务；v)。为 JCRC 国际校外研究员 (IEA) 提供 NIH 资助培训，以获得有效管理 NIH 和其他机构奖项所需的知识和技能。活动包括完成 IEA 的远程学习模块以及在 IEA 之前在 NIH 进行为期三周的住院医师培训。远程学习模块将包括 NIH 简介、NIH 术语和资助机制、NIH 官员的作用、资助申请的接收和转介、同行评审流程、项目资助周期、资助管理基础知识、在研究中使用动物以及使用人类研究中的课题。在 NIH 驻留和 NICH 工作人员现场访问之后，应进行基线培训需求评估，并在确认结构开发计划之前与所有合作机构举行协商会议。该计划包括为 JCRC、姆巴拉拉科技大学和乌干达穆科诺基督教大学的研究办公室提供设备。应审查 JCRC 研究政策文件，以适应乌干达不断增长的多学科和复杂的研究项目。短期培训课程和研讨会涉及以下内容：NIH 重点资助的写作和奖励管理；传播研究和公众参与简介；研究伦理简介；如何利用基于设施的数据进行研究和提高服务质量； NIH 拨款写作、提交和拨款后管理课程的培训培训师。
