PROJECT SUMMARY/ABSTRACT The National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases (NIAID)-funded Tropical Medicine Research Center (TMRC) Program supports neglected tropical disease (NTD) research specifically for the development of prevention and therapeutic strategies while increasing in-country capacity, scientific collaboration, research opportunities for junior and early-stage investigators, and data and specimen sharing. The TMRC Program has a long history of funding scientifically productive research projects, but enhanced collaboration, coordination, and information sharing within and external to the TMRCs would increase the scientific value and public health impact of the scientific knowledge and resources developed within these research projects. Accordingly, as the TMRC Coordinating Center (CC), RTI International will provide administrative, communication, logistical, and operational support to the TMRC Program to achieve the following specific aims: (1) augment external stakeholder awareness of and alliance with TMRC Program expertise and resources by providing a conduit between the TMRC Program and the broader NTD research community; (2) enhance the TMRC Program’s collaborative and coordinated scientific impact by providing centralized administrative, communications, logistical, and operational support; (3) increase the utility of scientific TMRC resources, including data and specimens collected within the TMRC Program, by increasing data harmonization and developing and supporting a virtual repository; and (4) support the next generation of investigators and in-country scientists by implementing and managing the TMRC Program Opportunity Fund. Successful completion of these aims will include innovative implementation of technological communication and collaboration tools through a TMRC Program web presence that includes access to critical Program virtual resources, such as the virtual repository, the Opportunity Fund Gateway, and a Knowledge and Mentoring Network, to facilitate knowledge transfer and establish mentoring relationships. As the TMRC CC, we will use our team’s broad experience leading, managing, and providing administrative and data and specimen sharing support as the CC to numerous complex research consortiums. The team will use existing relationships with key stakeholders, established procedures and processes that can be easily adapted, and proven informatics technology to ramp up quickly as the TMRC CC and help advance the work being completed in support of the TMRC Program objective.

项目概要/摘要 美国国家过敏和传染病研究所 (NIAID) 资助的热带医学研究中心 (TMRC) 计划支持被忽视的热带病 (NTD) 研究，专门用于开发 预防和治疗策略，同时提高国内能力、科学合作和研究 为初级和早期研究人员提供机会，以及数据和标本共享。 TMRC 计划 长期以来一直资助科学生产的研究项目，但加强了合作， TMRC 内部和外部的协调和信息共享将增加科学价值 这些研究项目中开发的科学知识和资源对公共卫生的影响。 因此，作为 TMRC 协调中心 (CC)，RTI International 将提供行政、 为 TMRC 计划提供通信、后勤和运营支持，以实现以下具体目标 目标：(1) 增强外部利益相关者对 TMRC 计划专业知识的认识并与之结盟， 通过在 TMRC 计划和更广泛的 NTD 研究界之间提供渠道来获取资源； (2) 通过提供集中化的服务，增强 TMRC 计划的协作和协调的科学影响 行政、通讯、后勤和运营支持； (3)增加科学TMRC的效用 资源，包括在 TMRC 计划内收集的数据和样本，通过增加数据 协调、开发和支持虚拟存储库； (4) 支持下一代 通过实施和管理 TMRC 计划机会基金，为研究人员和国内科学家提供支持。 成功完成这些目标将包括技术传播的创新实施 和协作工具，通过 TMRC 计划网络存在，包括访问关键计划 虚拟资源，例如虚拟存储库、机会基金网关以及知识和 指导网络，促进知识转移并建立指导关系。作为TMRC CC， 我们将利用我们团队的广泛经验来领导、管理和提供行政和数据以及 作为 CC 为众多复杂的研究联盟提供标本共享支持。该团队将利用现有的 与主要利益相关者的关系、可轻松调整的既定程序和流程，以及 成熟的信息学技术将随着 TMRC CC 的快速发展并帮助推进工作 为支持 TMRC 计划目标而完成。
