Reinvigorating HIV Prevention and Care for People Who Use Drugs: Accelerating Progress and Sustaining Gains in the Midst of Societal Disruption

项目概要/摘要-行政核心 行政核心提供科学领导和行政支持，以：1）确保 中心和个人核心的实现，2）提高生产力和研究的影响， 研究基地，3）培训和指导我们的研究人员成为成功和富有成效的科学家。管理员 核心提供资源和结构，以应对构思，计划和执行中的挑战 研究，并鼓励新的研究，是响应国家卫生研究院艾滋病研究办公室的高度优先事项 研究课题。核心不断寻求扩大我们作为国家资源的影响力， 在艾滋病毒和毒品使用领域工作。管理核心还努力促进协作， 为整个CDUHR社区提供跨学科的知识环境。这样做会促进更充分的参与， 更自由地交流知识和思想，更有效地应对紧迫的公共卫生问题。三 行政核心通过了新的倡议。首先，创建了访问学者计划，邀请 科学家谁是研究在风险，脆弱和服务不足的人群健康差距的专家， 与我们合作，以便我们的调查人员可以向他们学习并与他们合作。二是新一 社区联盟将向中心和我们的调查人员提供有关社区问题、研究 问题和最佳做法进行研究与弱势群体。第三，管理核心将 优先考虑更频繁和及时的中心活动评估，以跟上我们的研究者 不断变化的需求。总的来说，我们认为，在例行的同时， 更新和改进中心的运作方式将确保我们实现中心的目标。具体 行政核心的目标是：1）确保中心继续作为外地的资源， 包括调查人员、政策制定者和服务提供者，并积极寻求新的方式， 作为一种资源; 2）提供科学领导，并通过a）确保各核心之间的整合和协同作用 促进跨学科合作，通过中心为PWUD的艾滋病毒预防和护理注入新的活力 促进新思想讨论的活动，如新兴和正在发生的重大事件和趋势 (BE/BT），创新和严谨的研究方法，以及高优先级的研究问题和B）提供 为项目活动集中资源，并协助满足监管要求，以促进项目 效率，并适应不断变化的研究环境，可能由BE/BT塑造; 3）与 社区合作伙伴，以提高通过指导产生的知识的相关性和影响， 新成立的社区联盟;以及4）正式评估中心的活动，以便我们继续满足 相关调查人员和外地的需要。

Project Summary/Abstract – Administrative Core The Admin Core provides scientific leadership and administrative support to: 1) ensure that the overall aims of the Center and individual Cores are achieved, 2) enhance the productivity and impact of the studies in the research base, and 3) train and mentor our investigators to be successful and productive scientists. The Admin Core provides the resources and structure to address challenges in conceiving, planning, and conducting research, and to stimulate new research that is responsive to the NIH Office of AIDS Research high-priority research topics. The Core constantly seeks to increase our reach as a national resource to investigators working in the field of HIV and drug use. The Admin Core also strives to promote a collaborative, transdisciplinary intellectual environment for the entire CDUHR community. Doing so invites fuller participation, freer exchange of knowledge and ideas, and more effective responses to urgent public health problems. Three new initiatives were adopted by the Admin Core. First, a Visiting Scholars program was created that invites scientists who are expert in studying health disparities in at-risk, vulnerable, and under-served populations to engage with us so that our investigators may learn from and potentially collaborate with them. Second, a new Community Coalition will advise the Center and our investigators regarding community concerns, research questions, and best practices for conducting studies with vulnerable populations. Third, the Admin Core will prioritize more frequent and timely evaluation of Center activities in order to keep up with our investigators’ changing needs. Altogether, we believe that carrying forward our tried and tested approaches while routinely updating and improving how the Center functions will ensure that we achieve the Center’s aims. The specific aims of the Admin Core are to: 1) Ensure that the Center continues to serve as a resource to the field, including investigators, policy makers, and service providers and actively seek new ways that the Center can serve as a resource; 2) Provide scientific leadership and ensure integration and synergy across Cores by a) fostering transdisciplinary collaborations to reinvigorate HIV prevention and care for PWUD through Center activities that promote discussions of new ideas, such as emerging and ongoing Big Events and Trends (BE/BT), innovative and rigorous research methods, and high priority research questions and b) provide centralized resources for project activities and assisting with regulatory requirements to promote project efficiencies, and adapt to an evolving research environment that may be shaped by BE/BT; 3) Collaborate with community partners to improve the relevance and impact of knowledge generated through guidance from a newly formed Community Coalition; and 4) Formally evaluate Center activities so that we continue to meet the needs of affiliated investigators and the field.
