Project Summary/ Abstract: The Republic of Mozambique, a Portuguese-speaking country of 28 million people on the southeast coast of Africa, has experienced significant economic growth and distinct progress in improving health indicators over the past two decades. Since the end of a devastating civil war in 1992, health has been a government priority, particularly in response to the crushing burden of HIV/AIDS (the 2015 national prevalence was estimated at 13.2% among adults aged 15-49 years). The UN’s 2018 Human Development Index ranks Mozambique 180th out of the world’s 189 countries. While national efforts to expand HIV health care service delivery have focused on strengthening community- based and regional clinics, there has simultaneously been significant targeted investment to build infrastructure and human capacity in HIV research, innovation, and health education. Medical research, including epidemiologic and health services research, has grown dramatically. This growth has stemmed from both international collaborative projects, such as our current D43 Partnership for Research in Implementation Science- Mozambique (PRISM) award between the Faculty of Medicine at University Eduardo Mondale (UEM) and the Vanderbilt Institute for Global Health (VIGH) at Vanderbilt University Medical Center (VUMC), and also from Mozambique’s increased emphasis on research as a key component of professional and graduate education in biomedical sciences and public health. Through this renewal application we seek to substantially build upon the groundwork laid by the PRISM collaboration for HIV implementation science research capacity at UEM, Mozambique´s principal medical school. With the strong academic foundation established through PRISM, we now focus on further strengthening UEM´s local HIV implementation science research capacity and will support UEM over the next five years to assume full ownership of this program. We will maximize opportunities in our newly created cohort of PRISM alumni with Master´s level experience in HIV implementation science as well as the newly launched UEM Faculty of Medicine Implementation Science Unit, leveraging resources to provide doctoral studies via an enhanced UEM PhD program for four scholars as well as four faculty fellowships so that all may achieve the academic requirements needed to become successful independent researchers. Our Specific Aims are to 1) Train PhD scientists from UEM in HIV implementation science research and strengthen the UEM PhD program; 2) Solidify the UEM Faculty of Medicine Implementation Science Unit as a Center of Excellence in Implementation Science training and research; and 3) Expand opportunities for the conduct of HIV implementation science research by capacitating two Mozambican HIV research institutions/field sites (Aurum-Mozambique and the Center for Health Research-Manhiça [CISM]).

项目概要/摘要：莫桑比克共和国，一个拥有2800万人口的葡萄牙语国家 非洲东南海岸的人民，经历了显着的经济增长和显着的进步， 在过去的二十年里，健康指标得到了改善。自1992年毁灭性的内战结束以来， 一直是政府的优先事项，特别是在应对艾滋病毒/艾滋病的沉重负担方面（2015年全国艾滋病日） 在15-49岁的成年人中，流行率估计为13.2%）。联合国2018年人类发展报告 该指数在世界189个国家中排名第180位。 虽然国家努力扩大艾滋病毒保健服务的提供，但重点是加强社区， 同时，在基础设施建设方面也进行了大量有针对性的投资 艾滋病毒研究、创新和健康教育方面的人力资源能力。医学研究，包括 流行病和卫生服务研究取得了显着增长。这一增长源于两方面 国际合作项目，如我们目前的D43伙伴关系的研究实施 爱德华多·蒙代尔大学（UEM）医学院荣获莫桑比克科学奖（PRISM） 和范德比尔特大学医学中心（VUMC）的范德比尔特全球健康研究所（VIGH），以及 莫桑比克越来越重视研究，将其作为专业和研究生教育的关键组成部分， 生物医学科学和公共卫生教育。 通过这次更新申请，我们寻求在PRISM奠定的基础上进一步发展 莫桑比克主要医疗机构UEM的艾滋病毒实施科学研究能力合作 学校凭借通过PRISM建立的强大学术基础，我们现在专注于进一步 加强UEM的地方艾滋病毒实施科学研究能力，并将支持UEM在未来 五年后才能完全掌控这个项目我们将最大限度地利用我们新创建的队列中的机会 在艾滋病毒实施科学方面具有硕士水平经验的PRISM校友以及新推出的 UEM医学院实施科学单位，利用资源，通过提供博士研究 增强UEM博士课程的四名学者以及四名教师奖学金，使所有可能实现 成为成功的独立研究人员所需的学术要求。 我们的具体目标是1）培训博士科学家从UEM在艾滋病毒实施科学研究， 加强UEM博士课程; 2）巩固UEM医学院实施科学单位作为一个 实施科学培训和研究的卓越中心;以及3）扩大 开展艾滋病毒实施科学研究，使莫桑比克的两项艾滋病毒研究 机构/现场（莫桑比克Aurum和Manhiça卫生研究中心[CISM]）。
