DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The International Cerebrovascular Translational Clinical Research Training Program (ICTCRT) at the Aga Khan University is a broad based multidisciplinary and multinational training program whose graduates will have the knowledge, skills and aptitude to perform clinical research on stroke which has relevance and applicability to the needs of Pakistan. This goal will be achieved by a three year training program whose first year will be dedicated to the acquisition of clinical skills needed to evaluate and manage stroke patients independently and the cognitive skills to critically evaluate the current evidence on stroke and its relevance to developing countries. The second and third year will be research years where the trainee will complete a Masters in Clinical Research and develop and execute a cerebrovascular research project. This project will respect an identified research theme of national relevance and impact. An international program faculty will be assigned to the trainee whose expertise and experience complement the project developed by the trainee. The program be reviewed annually by a international" Training Advisory Group" in addition to ongoing local evaluation. The ICTCRT program has significant "added value". It has secured commitment of training and monitoring responsibilities and course development from the regional Cochrane network, the Fogarty International Bioethics Program and the Fogarty Emergency and Trauma network nationally. The Aga Khan University Postgraduate Medical Education has recognized a "stroke fellowship" the first in Pakistan to be initiated in 2009. The trainee will have access and research opportunities enabled by a comprehensive stroke bio-resource which is currently enrolling patients from all over Pakistan, made possible through awards and ongoing grants. The ICTCRT program will recruit trainees regardless of their background or gender. In addition to ability, indicators of successful retention within Pakistan will increase the chances of being selected for this exciting opportunity. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: There an urgent need to create the human resource necessary to combat the noncommunicable disease epidemic of stroke in South Asia. The projected increase in mortality and morbidity attributable to stroke is expected to be much greater in South Asia than any other geographical area worldwide. There are no formal training or research programs for stroke in Pakistan. The ICTCRT program will fulfill this urgent need.

描述（由申请人提供）：阿加汗大学的国际脑血管转化临床研究培训项目（ICTCRT）是一个基础广泛的多学科和跨国培训项目，其毕业生将具备进行卒中临床研究的知识、技能和能力，这些研究与巴基斯坦的需求相关并适用。这一目标将通过一个为期三年的培训计划来实现，第一年将致力于获得独立评估和管理卒中患者所需的临床技能，以及批判性评估卒中当前证据及其与发展中国家相关性的认知技能。第二年和第三年将是研究年，受训者将完成临床研究硕士学位，并开发和执行脑血管研究项目。该项目将尊重一个已确定的具有国家相关性和影响的研究主题。国际项目教师将被分配给实习生，其专业知识和经验补充了实习生开发的项目。该计划每年由一个国际“培训咨询小组”进行审查，并进行当地评估。ICTCRT方案具有重要的“附加值”。它已从区域科克伦网络、福格蒂国际生物伦理方案和全国福格蒂急救和创伤网络获得培训和监测责任以及课程开发的承诺。阿加汗大学研究生医学教育已经承认了“中风奖学金”，这是巴基斯坦第一个于2009年启动的奖学金。受训人员将获得全面的中风生物资源的访问和研究机会，该资源目前正在招募来自巴基斯坦各地的患者，通过奖励和持续的赠款成为可能。ICTCRT计划将招募学员，无论他们的背景或性别。除了能力之外，在巴基斯坦成功保留的指标将增加被选中参加这个令人兴奋的机会的机会。 公共卫生相关性：迫切需要创造必要的人力资源，以打击南亚流行的非传染性疾病中风。预计南亚中风死亡率和发病率的增长幅度将远高于全球任何其他地理区域。巴基斯坦没有针对中风的正式培训或研究项目。ICTCRT计划将满足这一迫切需要。
