DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The goal of GHESKIO-Cornell ICOHRTA training program is to increase capacity in integrated clinical, operational, and health services research in support of Haiti's national scale-up of HIV prevention and care services. Haiti is the poorest country and has the highest rates of HIV infection in the Western Hemisphere, with an estimated 5% of the adult population infected. In response, the Haitian Ministry of Health is initiating the Haitian National HIV Care and Prevention Network, a collaboration of public and private health care organizations across the country that will provide a standardized package of HIV care and prevention services to 300,000 people/year, including voluntary counseling and testing, management of tuberculosis and sexually transmitted infections, prevention of mother to child HIV transmission and comprehensive HIV care. The Ministry has asked the GHESKIO Centers to lead this network through training, supervision, monitoring and evaluation, and through the conduct of operational and health services research. The GHESKIO Centers is an international research and training institution that has benefited from twenty years of research capacity building from Cornell and Vanderbilt Universities, supported by the Fogarty International Center. GHESKIO is now recognized as an international center of research excellence, and is a member of the NIH HIV Vaccine Trials Network (HVTN), the AIDS Clinical Trials Group (ACTG), and a field site of the WHO's Tropical Disease Research Programme (TDR). In the current proposal, GHESKIO will become the primary training institution and extend research capacity to other organizations in Haiti that are participating in the Haitian National HIV Care and Prevention Network. GHESKIO, in collaboration with Haitian and International partners, will develop short- and long-term training curricula in clinical, operational, and health services research methodology and in ethics, program management, and scientific writing. A Masters in Public Health Program offered in Haiti will be the culmination of this curricula development. The objective is to train a cadre of research leaders and to increase research capacity in the National HIV Care and Prevention Network. The specific areas of integrated clinical, operational, and health services research that will form the basis of the proposed ICOHRTA training program include: 1) adult antiretroviral treatment; 2) prevention of mother to child HIV transmission and antiretroviral treatment of HIV-infected mothers and infants; 3) tuberculosis; 4) sexually transmitted infections; 5) ethics; and 6) health outcomes of HIV care and prevention. Research training will focus on translating models of HIV care and prevention to large scale national implementation.

描述（由申请人提供）：GHESKIO-Cornell ICOHRTA培训项目的目标是提高综合临床、业务和卫生服务研究的能力，以支持海地在全国范围内扩大艾滋病毒预防和护理服务。海地是西半球最贫穷的国家，也是艾滋病毒感染率最高的国家，估计有5%的成年人感染了艾滋病毒。为此，海地卫生部正在启动海地国家艾滋病毒护理和预防网络，这是全国公共和私营卫生保健组织的一个合作项目，每年将向30万人提供一整套标准化的艾滋病毒护理和预防服务，包括自愿咨询和检测、结核病和性传播感染的管理、预防母婴艾滋病毒传播和艾滋病毒综合护理。卫生部已要求GHESKIO各中心通过培训、监督、监测和评价以及开展业务和保健服务研究来领导这一网络。GHESKIO中心是一个国际研究和培训机构，得益于20年来康奈尔大学和范德比尔特大学的研究能力建设，并得到福格蒂国际中心的支持。GHESKIO现在被公认为国际卓越研究中心，是美国国立卫生研究院艾滋病毒疫苗试验网络（HVTN）、艾滋病临床试验组（ACTG）的成员，也是世卫组织热带病研究规划（TDR）的一个实地站点。在目前的提议中，GHESKIO将成为主要的培训机构，并将研究能力扩大到海地参加海地国家艾滋病毒护理和预防网络的其他组织。GHESKIO将与海地和国际伙伴合作，在临床、业务和卫生服务研究方法以及伦理、方案管理和科学写作方面制定短期和长期培训课程。在海地提供的公共卫生硕士课程将是这一课程发展的高潮。其目标是培训一批研究领导干部，并提高国家艾滋病毒护理和预防网络的研究能力。综合临床、业务和保健服务研究的具体领域将构成拟议的国际人权事务中心培训方案的基础，这些领域包括：1)成人抗逆转录病毒治疗；2)预防艾滋病毒母婴传播和对感染艾滋病毒的母婴进行抗逆转录病毒治疗；3)肺结核;4)性传播感染；5)伦理;6)艾滋病毒护理和预防的健康结果。研究培训将侧重于将艾滋病毒护理和预防模式转化为大规模的国家实施。
