DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Effective HIV prevention interventions require the integrated analysis of behavioral, biological, and social transmission patterns in specific cultural contexts. The South American Program in HIV Prevention Research (SAPHIR) program builds on existing training programs at the UCLA Program in Global Health to offer developing investigators from the U.S. an intensive, structured program of education and practical research training on comprehensive HIV prevention in an international environment. Specific Aim 1. To provide developing researchers from the U.S. with a structured program of education and training based on a focused research topic within the field of HIV prevention in Latin America. SAPHIR program trainees are paired with research mentors from the U.S. and Latin America to develop an independent research program incorporating both secondary analysis of existing data and design of an original research study protocol. Potential research topics include behavioral, epidemiological, clinical and laboratory issues related to HIV prevention within specific Latin American contexts. Specific Aim 2. To provide a program of didactic instruction and interactive seminars addressing integrated approaches to HIV prevention in international settings. The training program includes a weekly series of lectures and seminars on key areas of global HIV prevention, including lectures, journal clubs, research presentations, and ethics case conferences. The conceptual framework for the educational program is based on the intersection of scientific disciplines in comprehensive HIV prevention. Specific Aim 3. To build the capacity of a collaborative network of international investigators and research centers with individual areas of scientific expertise to produce integrated approaches to HIV prevention research in Latin America. In addition to practical training for young investigators, a secondary aim of the program is to promote inter-institutional collaboration and capacity-building for participating research centers. Graduates of the program will accomplish the following goals: 1) Acquire a foundation of knowledge in the four core areas of comprehensive HIV prevention (epidemiology, diagnosis, treatment, and prevention); 2) Complete a secondary data analysis and prepare a corresponding abstract for submission to an international scientific conference; 3) Design an independent research sub-study; 4) Prepare a study protocol that meets requirements for the ethical conduct of research with human subjects as defined by the UCLA Committee for the Protection of Human Research Subjects; 5) Submit a funding proposal for peer review and receive a written summary statement; and 6) Present results of their research in a local community venue and at an annual conference of program trainees and mentors. All SAPHIR graduates will acquire the exposure, skills, and practical experience necessary to gain admission to competitive post-doctoral training programs and to build an academic career in international HIV prevention research.

描述（由申请人提供）：有效的艾滋病毒预防干预措施需要对特定文化背景下的行为、生物和社会传播模式进行综合分析。南美艾滋病毒预防研究计划 (SAPHIR) 项目以加州大学洛杉矶分校全球健康项目现有培训计划为基础，为来自美国的研究人员提供关于国际环境中全面艾滋病毒预防的强化、结构化教育和实践研究培训计划。具体目标 1. 根据拉丁美洲艾滋病毒预防领域的重点研究主题，为美国的发展中研究人员提供结构化的教育和培训计划。 SAPHIR 项目学员与来自美国和拉丁美洲的研究导师配对，开发一个独立的研究项目，其中包括对现有数据的二次分析和原始研究方案的设计。潜在的研究主题包括与特定拉丁美洲背景下的艾滋病毒预防相关的行为、流行病学、临床和实验室问题。具体目标 2. 提供一个教学计划和互动研讨会，讨论国际环境中艾滋病毒预防的综合方法。培训计划包括每周一系列关于全球艾滋病毒预防关键领域的讲座和研讨会，包括讲座、期刊俱乐部、研究报告和道德案例会议。教育计划的概念框架基于艾滋病毒综合预防中科学学科的交叉。具体目标 3. 建设具有各个科学专业领域的国际调查人员和研究中心的合作网络的能力，以制定拉丁美洲艾滋病毒预防研究的综合方法。除了对年轻研究人员进行实践培训外，该计划的第二个目标是促进参与研究中心的机构间合作和能力建设。该项目的毕业生将实现以下目标： 1）获得艾滋病毒综合预防的四个核心领域（流行病学、诊断、治疗和预防）的基础知识； 2）完成二次数据分析并准备相应的摘要以提交给国际科学会议； 3）设计独立的研究子研究； 4) 制定符合加州大学洛杉矶分校人类研究受试者保护委员会规定的人类受试者研究道德行为要求的研究方案； 5) 提交资助提案供同行评审并收到书面总结声明； 6) 在当地社区场所以及项目学员和导师的年度会议上展示他们的研究结果。所有 SAPHIR 毕业生都将获得必要的接触、技能和实践经验，以进入竞争性博士后培训项目并在国际艾滋病毒预防研究领域建立学术生涯。
