RESEARCH SUPPORT SERVICES FOR THE DIVISION OF ACQUIRED IMMUNODEFICIENCY SYNDROME

为了实现其使命，艾滋病司（DAIDS），国家过敏和传染病研究所（NIAID），国家卫生研究院（NIH），积极支持和促进公共和私营部门的联盟，以最大限度地利用现有的研究机会和资源。通过调查关键研究领域的发展情况，艾滋病司评估了生物医学研究方面的持续需求，以及外联活动和科学调查人员培训方面的需求。作为这一进程的一部分，DAIDS与咨询小组、科学界和卫生专业组织合作，评估和调整计划重点，以应对不断变化的全球研究需求。 DAIDS的办公室和项目工作人员经常需要召开科学会议，以推进重要的科学目标，以及管理大型和小型联盟会议和相关活动。这些科学会议和大会的目的是召集艾滋病毒/艾滋病和其他传染病领域的专家组成科学家小组，以小组形式协调研究工作，协助艾滋病司工作人员监测研究进展，审查目前的研究状况，并为今后的研究方向确定优先事项。

To achieve its mission, the Division of AIDS (DAIDS), National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID), National Institutes of Health (NIH), actively supports and promotes public and private-sector alliances, in order to maximize available research opportunities and resources. By surveying developments in key research areas, DAIDS assesses ongoing needs in biomedical research, as well as requirements for outreach activities and the training of scientific investigators. As part of this process, DAIDS works with advisory groups, the scientific community and health professional organizations to evaluate and redirect program emphasis in order to respond to changing global research needs. Office and Program staff members in DAIDS are often required to convene scientific meetings in order to further important scientific goals, as well as manage large and small consortia meetings and related activities. The purpose of these scientific meetings and conferences is to gather select groups of scientists, who are experts in the fields of HIV/AIDS and other infectious diseases, to work in groups to coordinate research studies, assist DAIDS staff as they monitor research progress, review the state of current research, and set priorities for future research directions.
