Developmental Core (Core B)

迈阿密CFAR的使命是通过提供科学领导和开发 基础设施，促进基础和临床科学的整合，包括行为/社会科学， 促进教育和辅导，并与社区合作，预防、治疗和治愈艾滋病毒/艾滋病。的 发展核心（核心B）是迈阿密CFAR的最大组成部分，并提供了主要机制 CFAR可以支持创新和合作研究，特别是基础研究和 临床研究者，协助指导和建立新的/初级研究者，并提供途径 让学生参与艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究。虽然核心B具有广泛的使命，但其主要目标仍然是 支持初级调查员和没有经费的调查员，并提供有效的辅导。目标1。维护一个程序， 征求，同行评审和监督试点赠款，支持初级，基础和 临床研究人员，以促进他们的道路上成功的校外赠款。支助将针对： 初级研究人员; B）艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究的新研究人员; c）促进 基础和临床研究人员之间的合作，包括新兴的研究机会，以及; d） 新招聘的UM教师从事艾滋病毒研究活动。目标2.保持一个充满活力和密集的 指导初级教员、研究员和高级博士后以及少数民族研究人员的指导计划 特别是成功的独立职业。初级/新研究人员的成功维护 职业道路是CFAR的主要使命。因此，核心B将加强他们的导师计划 为对基础、行为或临床艾滋病毒/艾滋病职业感兴趣的少数民族和初级教师和学员提供 research.导师计划将提供指导，在赠款写作，研究方法和职业生涯 发展，并将联系初级研究人员建立研究导师。指导计划将 还注重为高级调查员提供指导，帮助他们成为更好的导师。这些活动 为UM的艾滋病研究奠定坚实的未来基础，并为新一代研究人员提供支持。

The Miami CFAR mission is to advance HIV/AIDS research by providing scientific leadership and developing an infrastructure that fosters integration of basic and clinical sciences, including behavioral/social sciences, promotes education and mentorship, and partners with the community to prevent, treat and cure HIV/AIDS. The Developmental Core (Core B) is the largest component of the Miami CFAR and provides the major mechanism through which the CFAR can support innovative and collaborative research, particularly between basic and clinical investigators, assist in the mentoring and establishment of new/junior investigators and provide a path for students to participate in HIV/AIDS research. While Core B has a broad mission, its primary goal remains to support junior and unfunded investigators and provide effective mentoring. Aim 1. Maintain a program for solicitation, peer review and oversight of pilot grants that supports the research of junior, basic and clinical researchers to promote their path to successful extramural grants. Support will be targeted to: a) junior investigators; b) investigators new to HIV/AIDS research; c) translational research that fosters collaboration between basic and clinical researchers, including emerging research opportunities, and; d) research activities of newly recruited UM faculty working in HIV. Aim 2. Maintain a vibrant and intensive mentoring program that guides junior faculty, fellows and senior postdocs, and minority investigators in particular, to successful independent careers. The maintenance of junior/new researchers on a successful career path is a primary mission of the CFAR. As a consequence, Core B will enhance their mentorship program for minority and junior faculty and trainees interested in a career in basic, behavioral or clinical HIV/AIDS research. The mentoring program will provide guidance in grant writing, research methods and career development and will link junior investigators to an established research mentor. The Mentoring Program will also focus on providing guidance for senior investigators to help them become better mentors. These activities lay the foundation for a strong future for AIDS research at UM and support for a new generation of investigators.
