DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The ultimate research goal of the Morehouse School of Medicine is to achieve a level of biomedical research capability, and productivity that is equal to that of any medical institution. Toward that goal, funds are requested in this five year renewal application with the overall topic of: "Tissue Protection and Reparative Mechanisms". In this application we plan to (1) consolidate research core activities into groupings encompassing similar technologies, and build new technologies within the reorganized cores that will allow MSM to move ahead in its goal of building a research intense environment. These cores will: (2) foster development of research focus areas falling under the umbrella of our application topic at MSM, which cross basic science and clinical disciplines, and are appropriate to the school's mission. This will be accomplished through funding technical salaries and limited non-personnel support for (a) the development of collaborative research activities in four research areas: Cancer, Infectious Diseases, Reproductive Biology, and Vascular Biology; and (b) development of faculty infrastructure through the development of research programs through these individual research projects for new or junior faculty members. We also plan to fund a second set of developmental applications (one or two) during Years 3-5 of this application cycle, and we envision establishing an annual Research Symposium at MSM focused each year on a different research area falling under our research topic. (3) Finally, we plan to extend our current AIDS Nef Pathogenesis research team, and expand our AIDS focus area, through recruitment of postdoctoral candidates, and enhancing their careers through a comprehensive developmental program. Simultaneously, we will establish the organizational structure necessary to enhance the research and the funding of the pathogenesis group. Achievement of these several objectives will move Morehouse School of Medicine to a new plateau of biomedical research excellence, and make substantial contributions to the fight against AIDS and other diseases that affect underserved populations.

描述（由申请人提供）：莫尔豪斯医学院的最终研究目标是达到与任何医疗机构同等的生物医学研究能力和生产力水平。为了实现这一目标，五年续展申请需要资金，总体主题为：“组织保护和修复机制”。在此应用中，我们计划 (1) 将研究核心活动合并为包含类似技术的分组，并在重组的核心内构建新技术，这将使 MSM 能够朝着构建研究密集型环境的目标前进。这些核心将：(2) 促进 MSM 应用主题范围内的研究重点领域的发展，这些领域跨越基础科学和临床学科，并且适合学校的使命。这将通过提供技术工资和有限的非人事支持来实现：(a) 在四个研究领域开展合作研究活动：癌症、传染病、生殖生物学和血管生物学； (b) 通过针对新教师或初级教师的个人研究项目开发研究计划，发展教师基础设施。我们还计划在本申请周期的第 3-5 年资助第二组开发应用（一个或两个），并且我们设想在 MSM 建立一个年度研究研讨会，每年重点关注属于我们研究主题的不同研究领域。 (3) 最后，我们计划通过招募博士后、通过全面的发展计划增强他们的职业生涯，扩大我们现有的艾滋病 Nef 发病机制研究团队，并扩大我们的艾滋病重点领域。同时，我们将建立必要的组织结构，以加强发病机制研究和资助。这几个目标的实现将使莫尔豪斯医学院在生物医学研究方面迈上新的台阶，并为抗击艾滋病和其他影响服务不足人群的疾病做出重大贡献。
