Behavioral/Social Sciences & Community Outreach Core Research Plan (E)

行为/社会科学和社区外展（BSSCO）核心将与CFAR核心合作，以支持迈阿密CFAR的目标。具体来说，BSSCO核心将支持新的艾滋病毒研究人员的发展，研究计划，以及迈阿密大学（UM）行为/社会，临床和实验室科学家之间的合作。BSSCO核心将协助CFAR调查人员建立和维持强有力的双向社区伙伴关系。核心服务将建立在我们跨学科的BSSCO领导的专业知识、经验和现有研究项目的基础上，以及UM研究人员的优势和DCFAR之前的成功。BSSCO核心的目标如下：1)通过扩大在DCFAR下建立的社区咨询委员会（CAB），并确保CAB对研究项目的开发、实施、监测、完成和翻译提供投入，促进南佛罗里达社区组织（cbo）积极参与迈阿密CFAR；2)为调查人员提供咨询和资源，以加强社区和诊所研究参与者的招募和保留，并关注“难以找到”的人群，包括男男性行为者、性工作者、非法吸毒者和未接受艾滋病毒治疗的人群；3)扩大行为/社会科学家与临床和实验室科学家合作的机会，为CFAR研究人员提供咨询，帮助他们将生物学测量纳入行为/社会科学研究，为从队列研究中获取生物样本提供帮助，并为跨学科资助申请的发展提供帮助。

The Behavioral/Social Sciences and Community Outreach (BSSCO) Core will work with the CFAR Cores to support the aims of the Miami CFAR. Specifically, the BSSCO core will support the development of new HIV investigators, research initiatives, and collaborations among University of Miami (UM) behavioral/social, clinical, and laboratory scientists. The BSSCO Core will assist CFAR investigators in establishing and maintaining strong and bi-directional community partnerships. The core services will build on the expertise, experience and existing research programs of our interdisciplinary BSSCO leadership as well as the strengths of the UM researchers and the previous successes in the DCFAR. The aims of the BSSCO Core are as follows: 1) Promote active involvement of South Florida community based organizations (CBOs) in the Miami CFAR, by expanding the Community Advisory Board (CAB) that was developed under the DCFAR, and by ensuring that the CAB has input in the development, implementation, monitoring, completion, and translation of research projects; 2) Provide investigators with consultation and resources to enhance recruitment and retention of community and clinic-based study participants with attention to "hard to find" populations, including MSM, sex workers, illicit drug users, and those not in HIV care; 3) Expand the opportunities for behavioral/social scientists to collaborate with clinical and laboratory scientists, providing consultation to assist CFAR investigators as they integrate biological measures into behavioral/social science studies, providing assistance with obtaining biological samples from cohort studies and with the development of interdisciplinary grant applications.
