DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Involvement with the criminal justice system, substance use, and infection with HIV and hepatitis C virus (HCV) are syndemic in the United States. Despite this public health crisis, there is a relative dearth of clinical research aimed at improving treatment outcomes among CJ populations. To address this gap and increase the number and capacity of clinical scientists working with CJ populations, we have established this clinical research training program based at the Lifespan/Tufts/Brown Center for AIDS Research (CFAR) and in collaboration with the Brown Program in Public Health. The program will recruit five early career research scientists at the post-doctoral level annually from the U.S. and Puerto Rico through existing research networks, collaborations, and dissemination through relevant scientific meetings. The program is 24 months in length and is comprised of specific course modules and seminars held in Providence, RI, and a mentored research experience which will be conducted at the participant's home institution. The program has the following aims: 1) Provide a solid educational foundation for clinical research including research methodology and scientific writing skills by having participants attend the six week Summer Institute for Clinical and Translational Research offered by the Brown University of Program in Public Health. 2) Through on-site teaching during the Summer Institute course, the program will provide supplemental education on issues unique to CJ populations. 3) Provide a mentored research experience including funds for pilot projects that will provide participants with the opportunity t develop preliminary datasets appropriate for future NIH grants and to disseminate their findings at national meetings and through the peer-reviewed literature. 4) Provide ongoing mentored research support and collaborative learning experiences by convening research-in-progress seminars to review data collection, analyses, dissemination efforts, and to provide technical grant writing assistance that integrates the research experience. Scientific guidance will be provided by an Executive Committee and an external Advisory Committee; and a research mentoring network for participants will be created leveraging the faculty and resources at Lifespan/Brown including the Lifespan/Tufts/Brown Center for AIDS Research, the Center for Prisoner Health and Human Rights, the Center for Alcohol and Addiction Studies, the Centers for Behavioral and Preventive Medicine, the Program in Public Health, and the Alcohol Research Center on HIV (ARCH). The program will be evaluated by assessing dissemination activities, grant submissions, and grants funded for two years following program participation.

描述（由申请人提供）：参与刑事司法系统，物质使用和感染艾滋病毒和丙型肝炎病毒（HCV）是美国的综合征。尽管有这场公共卫生危机，但相对缺乏针对以下问题的临床研究： 改善CJ人群的治疗效果。为了解决这一差距，增加与CJ人群合作的临床科学家的数量和能力，我们在Lifespan/Tufts/Brown艾滋病研究中心（CFAR）建立了这个临床研究培训计划，并与布朗公共卫生计划合作。该计划将通过现有的研究网络，合作和相关科学会议的传播，每年从美国和波多黎各招募五名博士后水平的早期职业研究科学家。该计划为期24个月，包括在RI的普罗维登斯举行的特定课程模块和研讨会，以及将在参与者的家乡机构进行的指导研究经验。该计划有以下目标：1）通过让参与者参加布朗大学公共卫生计划提供的为期六周的临床和转化研究暑期研究所，为临床研究提供坚实的教育基础，包括研究方法和科学写作技能。2)通过暑期学院课程的现场教学，该计划将提供CJ人口特有问题的补充教育。3)提供一个指导的研究经验，包括试点项目的资金，将为参与者提供机会t开发适合未来NIH赠款的初步数据集，并在国家会议上传播他们的研究结果，并通过同行评审的文献。4)通过召开研究进展研讨会来审查数据收集，分析，传播工作，并提供整合研究经验的技术补助金写作援助，提供持续的指导研究支持和协作学习经验。将由一个执行委员会和一个外部咨询委员会提供科学指导;并将利用Lifespan/Brown的教师和资源为参与者创建一个研究指导网络，包括Lifespan/Tufts/Brown艾滋病研究中心，囚犯健康和人权中心，酒精和成瘾研究中心，行为和预防医学中心，公共卫生计划，酒精研究中心（Alcohol Research Center on HIV）该计划将通过评估传播活动，赠款提交和资助计划参与后两年的赠款进行评估。
