DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Few researchers in the Balkans and Black Sea countries are explicitly taught the international standards for the ethical conduct of research as part of their formal scientific or medical training. Hence, few of those who currently serve on their institutional research review boards (IRBs) have the formal educational background to fully appreciate, address, and lead their institutions in responding to the complex and subtle issues involved in today's ethical conduct of biomedical research, and most importantly, human subject research. By pooling the combined resources of Mount Sinai School of Medicine (MSSM) and the University of Belgrade School of Medicine (UBSM) we propose to create an educational program for clinicians, biomedical researchers and other professionals from this region that will provide them with the knowledge and skills to enable them to become leaders and spearhead the development of research ethics infrastructure and regulation. The training that we propose will utilize both traditional and innovative methods involving face-to-face and distance learning seminars to teach research ethics. We will focus on developing competencies and nurturing the essential attitudes that trustworthy researchers should have. We shall train a diverse group of individuals who are in positions to become important resources for their institutions or countries. We expect them to go on to serve the research communities in their home countries and institutions as teachers and as leaders in the development and implementation of mechanisms to assure the ethical conduct of research. The broad goal of our program will, therefore, be to train a pool of individuals to be ethically informed and sensitive leaders who understand, embrace, and express the core values of the international biomedical research community. At the end of this three year educational program, trainees will be well-prepared to think critically about today's and tomorrow's complex ethical issues of domestic and international biomedical research. Over the span of the five-year project the participants will become a community of scholars and resources for each other and their region. PUBLIC HEALTH RELEVANCE: Advances in biomedical science that promote health are only achieved through research. Because of the importance of this research and the need for assuring society's trust in the research enterprise, it is critical for the international scientifi community to certify that studies are conducted according to the highest ethical standards and train researchers to understand and embrace the principles for the ethical conduct of research. This project provides that training in the Black Sea region, and prepares trainees to share their knowledge with others.

描述（由申请人提供）：在巴尔干和黑海国家，很少有研究人员在其正式的科学或医学培训中被明确教授研究道德行为的国际标准。因此，目前在机构研究审查委员会（irb）任职的人很少有正式的教育背景，能够充分理解、解决和领导他们的机构应对当今生物医学研究伦理行为中涉及的复杂和微妙的问题，最重要的是，人类受试者研究。通过汇集西奈山医学院（MSSM）和贝尔格莱德大学医学院（UBSM）的综合资源，我们建议为该地区的临床医生、生物医学研究人员和其他专业人员创建一个教育项目，为他们提供知识和技能，使他们成为研究伦理基础设施和监管发展的领导者和先锋。我们建议的培训将利用传统和创新的方法，包括面对面和远程学习研讨会来教授研究伦理。我们将把重点放在培养能力和培养值得信赖的研究人员应有的基本态度上。我们将培养一批有能力成为其机构或国家重要资源的形形色色的个人。
