Community-Based HIV Education Research Program for Diverse Scholars

描述（由申请人提供）：拟议的“以社区为基础的艾滋病毒教育研究计划，为不同种族和民族群体”解决了记录的挑战和障碍，以社区为基础的参与性艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究领域的代表性不足的种族和少数民族（REM）学者的进步。将招募和保留五个队列的四名REM学者，每个都是高级博士后或初级教师，目标是男女人数相等（总数N=20）。认识到高质量的指导和获得实践经验的重要性，为新的研究人员，特别是那些来自代表性不足的REM群体的生产力和成功设定轨迹，我们将提供一个密集的为期六周的暑期研究所，提供研究教育课程和推进注册学者的专业发展;开发和推出一个辅导类型，解决结构和个人障碍，以促进REM学者在社区为基础的艾滋病毒研究;并评估整个教育计划对学者、导师及其各自组织的影响和功效。该计划将由公共卫生，护理，人类学，社会学，社会工作和黑人研究生学院和大学的历史理事会，少数民族组织（密歇根大学的种族，文化和健康研究中心）和亨特学院社区为基础的艾滋病毒/艾滋病计划组成的跨学科合作团队提供。所有REM学者将：参加一个密集的暑期课程，连续两个夏天，包括跨学科和应用的学习经验;获得持续的指导和访问REM艾滋病毒科学家的更大的网络;被支持写合作艾滋病毒的建议，并获得资金的试点项目，解决几个艾滋病毒的不平等经历的颜色社区之一。这一建议的意义在于，它提供了理论驱动的研究教育，特别强调影响有色人种社区内艾滋病毒不平等的社会决定因素和结构性因素;它是在一种“合作文化”中这样做的，这种文化从在研究和实践中与代表性不足的社区公平合作，到建立互利的转诊和研究教育伙伴关系，丰富的大学和研究机构。历史上的黑人学院和大学（HBCU）作为招聘和科学咨询结构的一部分的整合是该提案的创新之一，因为与其他NIMH资助的R25项目的导师和REM研究人员的联系。

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): The proposed "Community-Based HIV Education Research Program for Diverse Racial and Ethnic Groups" addresses the documented challenges and barriers to the advancement of underrepresented race and ethnic minority (REM) scholars in the field of community-based participatory HIV/AIDS research. Five cohorts of four REM scholars, each at the advanced post-doctoral or junior faculty level, will be recruited and retained, with a targeted goal of equal numbers of women and men (total N=20). Recognizing the importance of quality mentorship and access to practical experience in setting the trajectory for productivity and success of new investigators, and especially those from underrepresented REM groups, we will provide an intensive six week Summer Institute to deliver a research education curriculum and advance the professional development of enrolled scholars; develop and roll out a mentoring typology that addresses structural and individual barriers to advancement of REM scholars in community-based HIV research; and evaluate the effect and efficacy of the overall education program on scholars, mentors, and their respective organizations. The program will be delivered by an interdisciplinary collaborative team comprised of Public Health, Nursing, Anthropology, Sociology, and Social Work and the Historical Council of Black Graduate Colleges and Universities, minority organizations (University of Michigan's Center for Research on Ethnicity, Culture, and Health) and Hunter College Community-Based HIV/AIDS Program. All REM scholars will: participate in an intensive summer program for two consecutive summers that includes interdisciplinary and applied learning experiences; receive sustained mentorship and access to a larger network of REM HIV scientists; be supported to write collaborative HIV proposals and receive funding for pilot projects that address one of the several HIV inequities experienced within communities of color. The significance of this proposal is that it provides theory-driven research education with a unique emphasis on the social determinants and structural factors influencing HIV inequities within communities of color; and it does so within a "culture of collaboration" that extends from working equitably with underrepresented communities in research and practice and builds mutually beneficial referral and research education partnerships with diversity-rich universities and research organizations. The integration of historically black colleges and universities (HBCUs) as part of the recruitment and scientific advisory structure is one of the innovations of this proposal as is the linkage with mentors and REM researchers from other NIMH funded R25 programs.
