DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The University of North Carolina, Johns Hopkins University, Morehouse School of Medicine, and Tulane University have formed a consortium, based on over 20 years of research and training collaboration, to launch the Fogarty Global Health Fellows Program (FGHF). This consortium brings together 17 primary research training sites in Africa (Ghana, Malawi, South Africa (2), Swaziland, Uganda (2), Zambia), Asia (Bangladesh, China (3), India, Thailand) and South America (Argentina, Brazil, Peru). Our proposal focuses on more advanced trainees, regional partnerships, multilayered mentoring. Each primary training site has a lengthy history of NIH and US government research funding, training of US and international research trainees, and on-the-ground faculty mentors, many of whom were trained through Fogarty International Center programs. Twelve of the proposed training sites are currently part of the Fogarty International Clinical Research Scholars & Fellows program. We will preferentially recruit advanced post-doctoral researchers from more than 50 T32 training grants at the affiliated institutions in all disciplines of health sciences, as well a early-stage post- doctoral researchers, and doctoral and health science students from Schools of Dentistry, Medicine, Nursing, Pharmacy, Public Health and Veterinary Medicine at our 4 universities and around the US. Trainees from the international sites will be "twinned" with US trainees through additional resources including other existing Fogarty training grants and the Gilead Foundation to build research capacity at the sites to which the consortium has long-standing commitment. The areas of research focus include a broad range of topics that are consistent with the NIH Fogarty 2008-2012 Strategic Plan, recognizing the growing importance of non- communicable diseases while continuing the commitment to infectious diseases. Trainee applications will be judged on the quality of the research proposal, their previous track record, and commitment to a global health academic research career. Trainees will be assigned a team of mentors, with at least one senior and one junior mentor, who will closely monitor the progress of the trainee and provide on-site supervision. Drawing on existing linkages between sites and training faculty, we will enhance regional partnerships in order to provide training and guidance for junior mentors. Trainees and their twins will have access to biostatistical and epidemiologic consultation from UNC and Tulane faculty for both data analyses and grant writing purposes as well as supplemental funding for their research from multiple small grant opportunities at UNC. FGHF leverages a unique set of resources, training faculty, and sites in order to directly respond to three of the four Fogarty Strategic 2008-2012 Goals: bridging the training gap, fostering sustainable research, and building strategic partnerships.

描述(由申请人提供)：北卡罗来纳大学、约翰霍普金斯大学、莫尔豪斯医学院和杜兰大学在20多年的研究和培训合作的基础上组成了一个联盟，以启动Fogarty全球健康研究员计划(FGHF)。该联盟汇集了非洲(加纳、马拉维、南非(2)、斯威士兰、乌干达(2)、赞比亚)、亚洲(孟加拉国、中国(3)、印度、泰国)和南美洲(阿根廷、巴西、秘鲁)的17个初级研究培训地点。我们的建议侧重于更高级的实习生、区域伙伴关系和多层次的指导。每个初级培训地点都有悠久的历史，包括NIH和美国政府资助的研究，培训美国和国际研究实习生，以及实地教师导师，其中许多人都是通过福格蒂国际中心项目接受培训的。拟议的培训地点中有12个目前是Fogarty国际临床研究学者和研究员的一部分 程序。我们将优先从所有健康科学学科附属机构的50多个T32培训补助金中招聘高级博士后研究人员，以及我们4所大学和美国各地牙科、医学、护理、药学、公共卫生和兽医学院的早期博士后研究人员和博士后和健康科学学生。来自国际地点的受训人员将通过其他现有的Fogarty培训赠款和吉利德基金会等额外资源与美国受训人员“结成姐妹”，以在该联盟长期承诺的地点建设研究能力。研究重点领域包括与NIH Fogarty 2008-2012年战略计划一致的广泛专题，承认非传染性疾病日益重要，同时继续致力于传染病。受训人员的申请将根据研究提案的质量、他们以前的记录以及对全球卫生学术研究事业的承诺来评判。学员将被指派一个导师团队，至少有一名高级导师和一名初级导师，他们将密切监测学员的进度并提供现场监督。利用网站和培训教师之间的现有联系，我们将加强区域伙伴关系，以便为初级导师提供培训和指导。受训者和他们的双胞胎将可以从北卡罗来纳大学和杜兰大学的教职员工那里获得生物统计学和流行病学咨询，以进行数据分析和撰写赠款，并从北卡罗来纳大学的多个小额赠款机会中为他们的研究提供补充资金。FGHF利用一套独特的资源、培训师资和场地，以直接响应Fogarty战略2008-2012年四个目标中的三个：缩小培训差距、促进可持续研究和建立战略合作伙伴关系。
