DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Globalization of research activities occurs in a very heterogeneous world, because developing countries differ from industrialized countries regarding economic, social, and cultural contexts. Such differences bring up the concern with exploitation and increasing injustice and also make the existence of a universal concept in research ethics problematic. Consequently, controversies remain regarding research performed in developing countries. Recent scholarship has advocated that the ethical conduct of research in these countries requires local bioethics expertise input and authority. The primary goal of this proposal is to enhance the bioethics career development of individuals from Egypt as well as the bioethics competence of those involved with research endeavors and in doing so, ensure bioethics capacity building and sustainability in Egypt and at its institutions. A two-year training program is proposed that will lead to the granting of a Master Degree to six individuals from Egypt and the conduct of research ethics workshops to scores of individuals in Egypt. The first year of the grant will be devoted to development of the advanced degree associated course work and of the workshops. During the remaining years of the grant two trainees per year will be recruited for the proposed training program. The first year of the training program will provide trainees with an intensive academic experience in clinical research methodology and statistics, and bioethics as well as practical experiences in teaching, research, and ethical review of research. During the second year of the training program trainees will conduct a bioethics research project in Egypt and participate in further teaching and IRB experiences. After training, the trainees are expected to assume leadership positions in Egypt. Yearly research ethics workshops in Egypt are planned for each of the four years of the proposal for research staff, administrators, and IRB members. It is anticipated that all of the activities in this proposal will build a sustainable bioethics infrastructure in Egypt to support current and future research activities.

描述（由申请人提供）： 研究活动的全球化发生在一个非常多样化的世界，因为发展中国家在经济，社会和文化背景方面与工业化国家不同。这种差异引起了对剥削和日益不公正的关注，也使研究伦理中普遍存在的概念成为问题。因此，关于在发展中国家进行的研究仍然存在争议。最近的学术界主张，在这些国家进行合乎伦理的研究需要当地的生物伦理专门知识投入和权威。该提案的主要目标是加强埃及个人的生物伦理学职业发展以及参与研究工作的人员的生物伦理学能力，从而确保埃及及其机构的生物伦理学能力建设和可持续性。拟议的为期两年的培训计划将为埃及的六名人员授予硕士学位，并为埃及的数十名人员举办研究伦理研讨会。赠款的第一年将用于开发高级学位相关课程和讲习班。在赠款的剩余年份，每年将为拟议的培训方案招募两名受训人员。培训计划的第一年将为学员提供临床研究方法和统计学，生物伦理学以及教学，研究和研究伦理审查方面的实践经验的密集学术经验。在培训计划的第二年，学员将在埃及开展生物伦理学研究项目，并参加进一步的教学和IRB经验。培训后，受训人员将在埃及担任领导职务。计划在埃及为研究人员、管理人员和IRB成员举办为期四年的年度研究伦理研讨会。预计该建议中的所有活动将在埃及建立一个可持续的生物伦理基础设施，以支持当前和未来的研究活动。
