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基于 20 多年的研究和培训合作，组成了一个联盟，启动福格蒂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 个主要研究培训基地。我们的建议侧重于更高级的学员、区域合作伙伴关系、多层次指导。每个初级培训中心都拥有 NIH 和美国政府研究资助、美国和国际研究实习生培训以及实地教师导师的悠久历史，其中许多人都通过福格蒂国际中心项目接受过培训。拟议的培训地点中有 12 个目前是福格蒂国际临床研究学者和研究员的一部分 程序。我们将优先从健康科学各学科附属机构的50多个T32培训资助中招募高级博士后研究人员，以及来自我们4所大学和美国各地的牙科、医学院、护理、药学、公共卫生和兽医学院的早期博士后研究人员以及博士生和健康科学学生。来自国际基地的受训人员将通过额外资源与美国受训人员“结对”，这些资源包括其他现有的福格蒂培训补助金和吉利德基金会，以在该联盟长期承诺的基地建设研究能力。研究重点领域包括与 NIH Fogarty 2008-2012 战略计划一致的广泛主题，认识到非传染性疾病日益增长的重要性，同时继续致力于传染病。实习生申请将根据研究计划的质量、他们之前的记录以及对全球健康学术研究事业的承诺进行评判。学员将被分配一个导师团队，其中至少有一名高级导师和一名初级导师，他们将密切关注学员的进度并提供现场监督。利用站点和培训师资之间现有的联系，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。受训者及其双胞胎将有机会获得北卡罗来纳大学和杜兰大学教师的生物统计和流行病学咨询，以进行数据分析和资助写作，并从北卡罗来纳大学的多个小额资助机会中获得其研究的补充资金。 FGHF 利用一套独特的资源、培训师资和场所，直接响应福格蒂 2008-2012 年四个战略目标中的三个：缩小培训差距、促进可持续研究和建立战略伙伴关系。
