The goal of the Emory/Georgia TRAC is to grow the next generation of investigators focused on tuberculosis (TB) research, who will contribute to efforts to meet the ambitious World Health Organization (WHO) End TB strategy of eliminating TB by 2035 through better implementation of existing tools and development of new scientific tools for TB elimination. The Developmental Core will implement a multifaceted program entitled, Building the nExt GeneRation of resEArchers to End TB (BE GREAT), to enhance, stimulate, and expand the TB research community at the Emory/Georgia TRAC partner institutions. Our Development Core will build on a strong existing TB research infrastructure and institutional resources with a focus on enhancing career development of early stage investigators (ESIs) and attracting promising new investigators to the field. We will carry out didactic and mentored research training and provide new opportunities for leadership, mentorship, and team science training. Our long-term goal is to further develop and enhance a multidisciplinary, collaborative, and diverse TB research community that leads to impactful research aimed at ending the global TB epidemic. Our BE GREAT Developmental Core platform would utilize TRAC resources to support a targeted program of funding, mentorship and leadership training, and professional development to accomplish our goal of developing independent TB researchers focused on high priority areas of the Emory/Georgia TRAC Administrative Core, WHO and the NIAID. The Developmental Core will be led by Drs. Russell Kempker and Henry Blumberg, NIH-funded TB investigators with a long and successful history of TB-related research and research training including mentoring of ESIs at Emory and globally. Drs. Kempker and Blumberg will work with the Emory/Georgia TRAC MPIs and other Core leaders to integrate the Development Core activities across all Cores. We will also enhance opportunities for didactic and mentored research training and career development as well as ensure research resources are available to Emory/Georgia TRAC investigators. By utilizing NIH and institutional support and leveraging existing infrastructure at the Emory Center for AIDS research (CFAR), Specialized Center of Research Excellence on Sex (SCORE), Georgia Center for Diabetes Translation Research, and Georgia Clinical and Translational Science Alliance (Georgia CTSA, the NIH-funded Clinical and Translational Science Award), the BE GREAT program will have a broad impact on the next generation of global TB leaders. We will achieve our goal of developing a cadre of well trained, successful and independent TB researchers through the following specific aims: 1) Provide professional and career developmental support for ESIs focused on TB-related research careers, 2) Provide mentorship and training for TB investigators, and 3) Provide short-term research funding to ESIs and investigators new to TB through pilot grants. Our pilot funding and training programs will provide substantial added value for the Emory/Georgia TRAC community and will be vital to help recruit, engage and sustain the next generation of TB investigators.

埃默里/佐治亚州TRAC的目标是培养专注于结核病的下一代调查人员 (结核病)研究，世卫组织将为实现雄心勃勃的世界卫生组织(世卫组织)结束结核病的努力做出贡献 通过更好地实施现有工具和开发新的工具，到2035年消除结核病的战略 消除结核病的科学工具。发展核心将实施一项多方面的计划， 培养下一代研究人员，以消灭结核病(成为伟大的)、增强、激励和扩大 埃默里/佐治亚州TRAC伙伴机构的结核病研究界。我们的开发核心将构建 关于强大的现有结核病研究基础设施和机构资源，重点是促进职业发展 发展早期调查人员(ESIS)，并吸引有前途的新调查人员进入该领域。我们会 开展指导性和辅导性研究培训，为领导力、导师、 和团队科学训练。我们的长期目标是进一步发展和提高多学科， 合作的、多样化的结核病研究社区，导致旨在结束全球 结核病流行。我们的BE伟大发展核心平台将利用TRAC资源来支持 有针对性的融资、指导和领导力培训以及职业发展计划以实现 我们的目标是发展独立的结核病研究人员，重点放在埃默里/佐治亚州TRAC的高优先领域 行政核心、世卫组织和NIAID。发展核心将由Russell Kempker博士和 亨利·布伦伯格，由美国国立卫生研究院资助的结核病调查人员，在结核病相关研究和 研究培训，包括在埃默里和全球范围内对esis的指导。Kempker博士和Blumberg博士将与 埃默里/佐治亚州核心预算资源调拨目标和其他核心领导人将发展核心活动整合到所有 核心。我们还将增加教学和指导研究培训和职业发展的机会 以及确保埃默里/佐治亚州TRAC调查人员可以获得研究资源。通过利用NIH和 机构支持和利用埃默里艾滋病研究中心(CFAR)的现有基础设施， 佐治亚州糖尿病翻译中心专业性研究卓越中心(SCORE) 研究，和佐治亚州临床和翻译科学联盟(佐治亚州CTSA，NIH资助的临床 和翻译科学奖)，BE伟大的计划将对下一代 全球结核病领导者。我们将实现建设一支训练有素、事业有成、独立自主的干部队伍的目标 结核病研究人员通过以下具体目标：1)提供专业和职业发展 支持以结核病相关研究事业为重点的EIS，2)为结核病提供指导和培训 研究人员，以及3)通过Pilot向Esis和新接触结核病的研究人员提供短期研究资金 资助金。我们的试点资金和培训计划将为埃默里/佐治亚州提供可观的附加值 这对帮助招募、聘用和维持下一代结核病调查人员将是至关重要的。
