DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The project will be a joint collaboration between The College of Medicine of the University of Malawi and Michigan State University. It has two primary goals. The first is development of an indigenous community of scholars in Malawi and elsewhere in the region who will become active contributors to the literature of international research ethics, speaking to issues which are of particular relevance for Africa. Second is development of an indigenous curriculum relevant to research ethics which can attract talented African students to an academic career in bioethics. We will recruit trainees who already occupy responsible university or institutional positions. Trainees will hold an advanced degree in a relevant discipline, and show promise of scholarly or research potential. Trainees will come to Michigan State University to take advanced level courses specific to their core discipline and their planned area of research, and will be matched with an MSU mentor. Trainees will then return to Malawi, where further coursework will focus on issues specific to research ethics, taught by Malawi-based scholars, including a visiting professor who will provide the additional faculty capacity needed at the University of Malawi. Trainees will implement their research projects in Malawi, advised there by a Malawi-based scholar, and also (electronically) by their MSU mentor. In consultation with their mentors, trainees will also develop plans for a course related to issues in research ethics that can be offered through the trainee's home institution upon their return. Toward the end of the trainee's research project, the MSU mentor will travel to Malawi to join the Malawi-based mentor for two weeks to work intensively with the trainee to develop a final research report suitable for publication in a peer reviewed journal, and help the trainee finalize the planned course syllabus. Trainees will receive a certificate of completion once all course work is completed, their research report has been accepted for publication, and they have successfully taught their course.

描述（由申请人提供）： 该项目将是马拉维大学医学院和密歇根州立大学之间的联合合作项目。它有两个主要目标。首先是在马拉维和该区域其他地方发展一个土著学者社区，他们将成为国际研究伦理文献的积极贡献者，就与非洲特别相关的问题发表意见。第二，制定与研究伦理有关的本土课程，吸引有才能的非洲学生从事生物伦理学的学术工作。我们将招聘已经在大学或机构担任重要职位的学员。学员将持有相关学科的高级学位，并表现出学术或研究潜力的承诺。学员将来到密歇根州立大学，参加针对其核心学科和计划研究领域的高级课程，并将与密歇根州立大学的导师相匹配。受训人员随后将返回马拉维，在那里，进一步的课程将侧重于研究伦理方面的具体问题，由马拉维学者授课，其中包括一名访问教授，他将提供马拉维大学所需的额外教师能力。学员将在马拉维实施他们的研究项目，由马拉维的学者提供咨询，并由他们的MSU导师（电子）提供咨询。受训人员还将与其导师协商，制定计划，以便在回国后通过受训人员所在机构开设与研究道德问题有关的课程。在学员的研究项目结束时，密歇根州立大学的导师将前往马拉维，与马拉维的导师一起工作两周，与学员密切合作，制定适合在同行评审期刊上发表的最终研究报告，并帮助学员完成计划的课程大纲。一旦所有课程完成，学员将获得结业证书，他们的研究报告已被接受出版，他们已经成功地教他们的课程。
