DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): This new 5-year proposal submitted to FIC/NIH in response to Non-communicable Diseases and Disorders across the Lifespan Award (NCD-LIFESPAN) (PAR-10-257) will establish a comprehensive, collaborative, and interdisciplinary research training initiative in Global Mental Health and developmental Disorders (GMH-DD) at the Azerbaijan Medical University (AMU) in Baku that will also provide outreach to the Newly Independent States (NIS) in particular east of Baku. Such a formal research training framework is currently lacking. The program will offer graduate coursework, didactics, research methods and contents at the Boston Children's Hospital (BCH) and the Harvard School of Public Health (HSPH) to help postdoctoral trainees launch mentored research ethics careers leading to Master's Certificate in GMH-DD (n=2/yr., 10 awards). The program will also offer medium term faculty enhancement scholarships with coursework, labs participation and networking with US investigators (n=2/yr., n=10 awards). The program will elevate GMG-DD as an integral core of NCD and provide currently missing infrastructures and mentorship to promote in the NIS region. Our successful record of running research training programs over a decade has helped us identify "nodal points" for intervention and to develop innovative ways to overcome institutional and bureaucratic barriers and to address practical challenges in developing, reviewing, conducting, and overseeing GMH-DD health research in this region. A major innovation of the research education and mentorship is the use Fogarty funded investigators in Turkey to circumvent cultural and language barriers to reach out to the NIS region. The Institute in Methods in GMH-DD Research organized annually in Baku will serve as a "regional hub" and offer scholarships to NIS applicants (n=12/yr., 60 awards) who will be sponsored to engage in 2-week long interactive research methods education with US, Turkey, and NIS faculty and participation of former trainees. The Institute will provide a forum for discussion of a range of GMH-DD related questions relevant to NCD and mhGAP and to the NIS region and will have strong support of the WHO European Office Mental Health Division to which NIS (as well as EU, Turkey and Israel) belong. The program is likely to bring exceptional value-added to the region in GMH-DD that to date has been quite impenetrable for US networks and regional influence.

描述(由申请人提供)：根据非传染性疾病和疾病寿命奖(NCD-LIFESPAN)(PAR-10-257)，向FIC/NIH提交的这份新的五年期建议书将在巴库的阿塞拜疆医科大学(AMU)建立一个全面、合作和跨学科的全球心理健康和发展障碍(GMH-DD)研究培训计划，还将向新独立国家(NIS)，尤其是巴库以东的国家提供外联服务。目前还缺乏这样一个正式的研究培训框架。该计划将在波士顿儿童医院(BCH)和哈佛大学公共卫生学院(HSPH)提供研究生课程、教学学、研究方法和内容，以帮助博士后学员开始指导研究伦理生涯，从而获得GMH-DD硕士证书(n=2/年，10个奖项)。该计划还将提供中期教师强化奖学金，包括课程、实验室参与和与美国调查人员的联系(n=2/年，n=10个奖项)。该计划将提升GMG-DD作为NCD不可或缺的核心，并提供目前缺乏的基础设施和指导，以在NIS地区推广。我们十多年来成功开展研究培训项目的记录，帮助我们确定了干预的“节点”，并开发了创新的方法，以克服体制和官僚障碍，并解决在该地区发展、审查、实施和监督GMH-DD卫生研究的实际挑战。研究、教育和指导的一项重大创新是利用福格蒂资助的土耳其调查人员绕过文化和语言障碍，与国家情报局地区进行接触。每年在巴库组织的GMH-DD研究方法研究所将作为一个“区域枢纽”，向NIS申请者(n=12/年，60个奖项)提供奖学金，这些申请者将得到赞助，与美国、土耳其和NIS的教职员工进行为期两周的互动研究方法教育，并参加前受训人员的参与。该研究所将提供一个论坛，讨论与非传染性疾病和mhGAP相关的一系列与GMH-DD相关的问题，并将得到NIS(以及欧盟、土耳其和以色列)所属的世卫组织欧洲办事处精神卫生司的大力支持。该计划可能会在GMH-DD中为该地区带来特殊的附加值，而到目前为止，美国的网络和地区影响力一直难以渗透。
