The UCSD CFAR International Program will provide support to CFAR members in a number of crucial ways, including assistance with establishing federal-wide assurances, translation, development of protocols, informed consent forms and surveys, and mentoring of junior investigators who are interested in developing a research portfolio in developing countries with high HIV/AIDS burdens. CFAR International Program support will include funding for foreign investigators who are collaborating with CFAR members to conduct pilot projects in international settings and a Visiting Scholars program. The objectives of the UCSD CFAR International Program are as follows: (1) to provide specialized administrative services that will enhance currently existing collaborations between the CFAR research community and investigators working in resource limited settings; (2) to provide developmental funds for the conduct of HIV/AIDS pilot research projects in resource-limited settings that will facilitate the development of preliminary data in support of more extensive externally supported research projects and programs; (3) to provide travel funds for the exchange of scholars and for travel in support of the development of joint research projects on HIV/AIDS in resource limited settings. To maintain programmatic focus, the CFAR has designated three international settings¿Brazil, Mexico, and South Africa¿as the initial cadre of UCSD CFAR International Program locales. These countries were chosen after a careful review in an effort to build on current strengths and to provide diverse locations in resource-limited countries in which collaborative AIDS-related research can be effectively conducted. This focus will be maintained by supporting International Pilot Projects developed in collaboration with investigators at institutions in each of the three focus countries. The International Program will provide centralized administrative and logistical support to members of the research communities of UCSD and affiliated institutions, including help with administrative and logistical issues. An International Pilot Project program will provide a mechanism for CFAR members to obtain seed funds to initiate research projects that can serve as the basis for more extensive subsequent investigations. A Visiting Scholars program will facilitate the exchange of scholars between UCSD and institutions in resource-limited countries affected by HIV. An important goal of the Visiting Scholars program is to train international scholars in areas that will enhance their research or training capacity as it relates to HIV/AIDS research. We will also implement an Annual Research Day that showcases results arising from international research projects undertaken by CFAR members and foreign collaborators. In terms of valueadded, through the provision of Pilot Project funds and the Visiting Scholar program, there will be enhanced capacity for new collaborations in each of the three focus countries that are expected to lead to independently funded extramural HIV/AIDS research grants. By hiring a dedicated International Program coordinator, our program will create efficiencies in administrative services that typically represent the ratelimiting steps in launching research projects in international settings. Through our Annual Research Day, our program will increase the visibility of our CFAR's ongoing international research and help disseminate this research in a manner that is timely and of interest to both local and international communities and policymakers.

UCSD CFAR国际计划将在一些关键领域为CFAR成员提供支持。 方法，包括协助建立联邦范围的保证，翻译， 方案、知情同意书和调查，以及对以下方面感兴趣的初级研究者的指导 在艾滋病毒/艾滋病负担沉重的发展中国家发展研究组合。CFAR国际 项目支持将包括为与CFAR成员合作的外国调查人员提供资金， 在国际环境中开展试点项目和访问学者计划。 UCSD CFAR国际课程的目标如下：（1）提供专业的 行政服务，将加强目前现有的合作之间的CFAR研究 在资源有限的环境中工作的社区和调查人员;（2）为以下方面提供发展资金： 在资源有限的情况下开展艾滋病毒/艾滋病试点研究项目， 编制初步数据，以支持更广泛的外部支助研究项目， （3）为学者交流和支持国际合作提供旅行资金。 在资源有限的情况下，制定艾滋病毒/艾滋病联合研究项目。 为了保持方案重点，CFAR指定了三个国际环境：巴西、墨西哥、 和南非<$作为UCSD CFAR国际计划地区的初始干部。这些国家 经过仔细审查后选择，以努力建立现有的优势，并提供多样化的地点， 在资源有限的国家，可以有效地开展与艾滋病有关的合作研究。这 将通过支持国际试点项目来保持重点，这些项目是与 在三个重点国家的每一个机构进行调查。 该国际计划将提供集中的行政和后勤支持的成员， UCSD和附属机构的研究社区，包括帮助行政和后勤 问题.一个国际试点项目计划将为CFAR成员提供一个获得种子的机制 基金，以启动研究项目，可以作为更广泛的后续调查的基础。 访问学者计划将促进UCSD和其他机构之间的学者交流， 受艾滋病毒影响的资源有限的国家。访问学者计划的一个重要目标是培养 国际学者在有关艾滋病毒/艾滋病的研究或培训能力将得到加强的领域 research.我们还将实施年度研究日，展示来自以下方面的成果： CFAR成员和外国合作者开展的国际研究项目。在增值方面， 通过提供试点项目资金和访问学者计划， 在三个重点国家中的每一个国家开展新的合作的能力， 独立供资的校外艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究赠款。通过聘请专门的国际计划 协调员，我们的计划将创造效率，在行政服务，通常代表限速 在国际环境中开展研究项目的步骤。通过我们的年度研究日， 我们的计划将提高CFAR正在进行的国际研究的知名度，并帮助传播 这项研究的方式是及时和感兴趣的地方和国际社会， 政策制定者。
