University of California Global Health Institute Program for Fellows and Scholars

项目摘要/摘要 针对RFA-TW-11-001，加州大学全球卫生研究所(UCGHI)，包括加州大学旧金山分校 旧金山(UCSF)、加州大学圣地亚哥分校(UCSD)、加州大学洛杉矶分校(UCLA)和加州大学戴维斯分校(UCD)，以及 由14个国家和5大洲的21个合作国际机构组成的网络提出 创建了UCGHI研究员和学者方案(UCGHI-PFS)。我们的具体目标是：1) 招募一群不同的受训人员，他们在纪律和种族方面都不同，并渴望建立 专注于跨学科研究的全球卫生领域成功的学术研究生涯；2)提供 与230名教师导师合作，在全球卫生领域开展卓越的跨学科教育和培训 来自该计划，以及21个合作良好的国际机构；3)为每个学员提供 拥有丰富和持久的指导研究经验，促进全球科学和职业发展 卫生研究；4)开发跨学科、创新的全球卫生研究和培训模式 旨在改善世界各地人口的健康；以及5)扩大和扩大全球健康 加州大学四个校区、UCGHI和国际合作伙伴机构的教师，并加强现有的 UCGHI与合作的国际机构之间的全球卫生网络。UCGHI-PFS将招聘 来自57个T32项目的候选人，代表参与此活动的15个NIH研究所中的12个 RFA。除了这些每年支持160名博士后和208名博士后研究员的项目外，20% 其中少数族裔人数不足，我们将从8名D43培训补助金中招募国际学员 在所有四个校区、附属学校和国际合作机构。每名实习生4名校长 组成部分包括：i)为期11个月的现场实践研究项目，与我们的一个国际 合作伙伴；ii)强大的跨学科指导研究经验；iii)在全球 通过现场和在线课程提供健康和相关主题；以及四)职业发展 确保学员实现他们的短期职业目标，并成功过渡到下一个职业阶段。 这四个组成部分紧密相连；领导小组和校园指导委员会将 确保它们形成一个无缝、集成的计划。创新方面包括一个统一的财团，提供 通过利用UCGHI的十个校区、专业知识中心和教员定期 互动和协作；教师导师提供跨不同学科的培训(例如，医学、护理、 药学、牙科、公共卫生、兽医、海洋学、农业、生物和社会 科学)；关于各种疾病和具有全球健康意义的问题的培训经验；以及 能够利用四个参与的UC园区的公共资源(例如UCGHI、CTSA、 CFARs和研究交流联盟)；以及一项创新的指导倡议。

Project Summary/Abstract In response to RFA-TW-11-001, the University of California Global Health Institute (UCGHI), including UC San Francisco (UCSF), UC San Diego (UCSD), UC Los Angeles (UCLA) and UC Davis (UCD), along with a network consisting of 21 collaborating international institutions across 14 countries and 5 continents proposes the creation of the UCGHI Program for Fellows and Scholars (UCGHI-PFS). Our specific aims are: 1) To recruit a diverse group of trainees who are diverse in discipline and ethnicity, and who aspire to build successful academic research careers in global health focusing on interdisciplinary research; 2) To provide outstanding, interdisciplinary education and training in global health in collaboration with 230 faculty mentors from the Program, and 21 collaborating well established international institutions; 3) To provide each trainee with a rich and enduring mentored research experience that fosters scientific and career development in global health research; 4) To develop models of interdisciplinary, innovative global health research and training designed to improve health for populations around the world; and 5) To broaden and expand the global health faculty across the four UC campuses, UCGHI and international partner institutions, and strengthen existing global health networks between UCGHI and collaborating international institutions. UCGHI-PFS will recruit candidates from a pipeline of 57 T32 programs, representing 12 of the 15 NIH institutes participating in this RFA. In addition to these programs which annually support 160 predoctoral and 208 postdoctoral fellows, 20% of whom are under-represented minorities, we will recruit international trainees from 8 D43 training grants across all four campuses, affiliated schools and international partner institutions. For each trainee, 4 principal components include: i) an 11-month, hands-on research project on-site with one of our international collaborative partners; ii) a strong, interdisciplinary mentored research experience; iii) instruction in global health and related topics provided through on-site, and on-line courses; and iv) career development to help ensure that trainees attain their short-term career goals and succeed in transitioning to the next career stage. These four components are closely interlinked; a Leadership Group and campus Steering Committees will ensure they form a seamless, integrated program. Innovative aspects include a unified consortium that offers synergy by capitalizing upon the UCGHI's ten campuses, Centers of Expertise and faculty that regularly interact and collaborate; faculty mentors offering training across diverse disciplines (e.g., medicine, nursing, pharmacy, dentistry, public health, veterinary science, oceanography, agriculture, and biological and social sciences); training experiences on a wide range of diseases and problems of global health significance; an ability to leverage common resources across the four participating UC campuses (e.g., UCGHI, CTSAs, CFARs and Research eXchange consortia); and an innovative mentoring initiative.
