福格蒂国际临床研究学者和研究员计划的目标是培养下一代临床研究人员,并帮助建立美国和国际研究人员和机构之间的国际健康研究伙伴关系。截至2012年6月,27个国家的61个地点接待了436名学者(美国学生或东道国的初级受训人员)和/或122名研究员(美国和东道国博士后研究员),他们在全球卫生研究方面有长达一年的经验。最初,该计划以传染病为导向,但最近对慢性病研究的重视程度有所增加。至少发表了521篇手稿,其中许多发表在高影响力的期刊上。项目包括临床试验,观察性研究,转化研究,临床实验室接口倡议和行为研究。该计划的优势包括在完善的国际临床研究环境中为美国和发展中国家的科学家提供培训机会,以及经验丰富的全球卫生专家的指导。
The Fogarty International Clinical Research Scholars and Fellows Program's goal is to foster the next generation of clinical investigators and to help build international health research partnerships between American and international investigators and institutions. Through June 2012, 61 sites in 27 countries have hosted 436 Scholars (American students or junior trainees from the host countries) and/or 122 Fellows (American and host country postdoctoral fellows) for year-long experiences in global health research. Initially, the program was oriented toward infectious diseases, but recently emphasis on chronic disease research has increased. At least 521 manuscripts have been published, many in high-impact journals. Projects have included clinical trials, observational studies, translational research, clinical-laboratory interface initiatives, and behavioral research. Strengths of the program include training opportunities for American and developing country scientists in well-established international clinical research settings, and mentorship from experienced global health experts.
