 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We employ a progressive stepwise method of selecting and training young investigators. This stepwise training method permits screening of candidates at multiple levels and ensures that we invest in the most highly qualified and motivated individuals. In this application, we propose to develop a new program to extend our training to achieve a critical mass of researchers in Bolivia, where we are beginning to build local expertise. The proximity of Bolivia to Peru provides us with a unique opportunity to leverage the human capacity and infrastructure that we have built in Peru over the last 20 years, using a South-South training approach to more cost-effectively begin to build a scientific research community in Bolivia. There are several infectious diseases affecting public health in Bolivia, and we plan to focus our training on a few of the most important to the country: Chagas disease, cysticercosis, tuberculosis (TB), pneumonia, and HIV neurological co-infections. Over the past 25 years, we have developed a training network of developing and developed country institutions that is remarkable for its breadth, depth and sustainability. This program began with a focus on Peru, and has trained more than 90 Peruvian graduate and post-graduate students and 400 students of other nationalities, and the collaborative network of individuals and institutions tied to this grant has produced more than 350 original research articles in peer-reviewed journals. This network and infrastructure developed in our original program in Peru will be leveraged in the new proposed program to train researchers in Bolivia. We have the following steps in our program that will be completed under this D43 grant: Step 1. We will train 20+ students each year in infectious disease and research methods seminars in Bolivia, for a total of 100+ students during the 5 year grant. Step 2. We will train five students per year in laboratory rotations in Bolivia, for a total of 25 trainees during the 5 year grant. Step 3. We wil train two students per year in laboratory rotations at the UPCH, for a total of 10 trainees during the 5 year grant. Step 4. We will train two Bolivian students per year in a Master's degree program at UPCH, for a total of ten trainees during the five year grant. Step 5. We will support six Bolivian students to attend the Tropical Medicine and Public Health Summer Institute at JHSPH during the five year grant.

 描述（由申请人提供）：我们采用逐步的方法选择和培训年轻的研究人员。这种逐步的培训方法允许在多个级别筛选候选人，并确保我们投资于最高素质和最积极的个人。在这项申请中，我们建议制定一项新的计划，以扩大我们的培训，以实现在玻利维亚，我们正在开始建立当地的专业知识的研究人员的临界质量。玻利维亚毗邻秘鲁，这为我们提供了一个独特的机会，利用我们在过去20年中在秘鲁建立的人力资源和基础设施，采用南南培训办法，以更具成本效益的方式开始在玻利维亚建立一个科学研究界。玻利维亚有几种影响公共卫生的传染病，我们计划将培训重点放在对国家最重要的几种疾病上：查加斯病、囊虫病、结核病、肺炎和艾滋病毒神经系统合并感染。在过去25年中，我们建立了一个发展中国家和发达国家机构的培训网络，其广度、深度和可持续性令人瞩目。该计划始于关注秘鲁，并已培训了90多名秘鲁研究生和研究生学生以及400名其他国籍的学生，与该补助金相关的个人和机构的合作网络已在同行评审期刊上发表了350多篇原创研究文章。我们在秘鲁的原项目中开发的网络和基础设施将在新提议的项目中得到利用，以培训玻利维亚的研究人员。我们在我们的计划中有以下步骤，将在此D43补助金下完成：步骤1.我们将在玻利维亚每年培训20多名学生参加传染病和研究方法研讨会，在5年的资助期内，共有100多名学生参加。步骤2.我们将每年在玻利维亚的实验室轮换中培训5名学生，在5年赠款期间总共培训25名学员。步骤3.我们将每年在UPCH的实验室轮换中培训两名学生，在5年的资助期间总共培训10名学员。步骤4.我们将在UPCH每年培训两名玻利维亚学生攻读硕士学位，在五年的赠款期内总共培训十名学员。步骤5.我们将支持六名玻利维亚学生参加热带医学和公共卫生暑期研究所在JHSPH在五年的赠款。
