 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): We propose the renewal of the Training Program, Behavioral Sciences Research in HIV Infection, at the HIV Center for Clinical and Behavioral Studies in the Columbia University Department of Psychiatry, to provide innovative postdoctoral training in sexuality, gender, and mental health research applied to HIV. While maintaining our goal of training scholars to collaborate across disciplines in independent research careers in which they address the challenges posed by the evolving HIV/AIDS epidemic, we will expand the Program to include attention to biomedical aspects of HIV/AIDs as well as implementation science research. With its theoretical rigor, methodological innovation, and practical application, our training addresses the complex psychological, social, and public health dilemmas posed by the epidemic and builds upon biomedical developments in HIV prevention and treatment. Our Program employs three complementary and mutually reinforcing learning strategies. (1) Fellows engage in research mentored by experienced senior investigators. (2) Fellows receive instruction in substantive issues, including the intersection of sexuality, gender, and mental health, and fundamentals of medicine, epidemiology, biostatistics, and health promotion related to HIV/AIDS prevention, treatment, and care. (3) Fellows receive training in critical academic and professional skills that will enable them to excel as competitive researchers with extramural grant support from NIH as well as other PHS and private funders. This Training Program builds on 25 years of success in training postdoctoral research Fellows. Our proven focus on intensive training in HIV/AIDS prevention science research with coursework in public health is maintained in this proposal. We propose two main innovations: (1) a Bioethics Certificate Program, based at Columbia University, which will meet the ethical and research challenges posed by the increasing complexity of HIV prevention and AIDS treatment strategies; and (2) excursions and externships, which will expose Fellows to diverse HIV-related research disciplines and fields of practice at several prime New York-based programs; from these excursions will emerge Externships comprising collaborative projects with researchers or professionals outside the HIV Center, e.g., for participation in field research, secondary data analysis, and/or paper writing. I addition to these innovations, we propose various other adaptations, including a broadening of the content of the HIV Sciences Seminar to promote literacy in biomedical HIV/AIDS research. In the next five years, we propose to maintain a cohort of seven Fellows, each with a three-year appointment and with new appointments made as Fellows graduate. Our Program will continue to be enriched by the numerous educational resources and training opportunities offered throughout the Columbia University Medical Center and New York City. As illustrated by the successful careers of many of our graduates, the Program has a major impact on HIV/AIDS research and HIV/AIDS-related prevention, treatment and care.

 描述（由申请人提供）：我们建议在哥伦比亚大学精神病学系的艾滋病毒临床和行为研究中心更新培训计划，艾滋病毒感染的行为科学研究，以提供创新的博士后培训性，性别和心理健康研究应用于艾滋病毒。在保持我们的目标，培训学者在独立的研究生涯中，他们解决不断变化的艾滋病毒/艾滋病流行病带来的挑战跨学科合作，我们将扩大该计划，包括关注艾滋病毒/艾滋病的生物医学方面以及实施科学研究。其理论严谨、方法创新、实践应用， 我们的培训解决了这一流行病带来的复杂的心理、社会和公共卫生困境，并以艾滋病毒预防和治疗方面的生物医学发展为基础。 我们的课程采用三种互补和相互加强的学习策略。(1)研究员在经验丰富的高级研究人员的指导下从事研究。(2)研究员接受实质性问题的指导，包括性，性别和心理健康的交叉，以及与艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防，治疗和护理有关的医学，流行病学，生物统计学和健康促进的基础。(3)研究员接受关键学术和专业技能的培训，使他们能够成为具有竞争力的研究人员，并获得NIH以及其他PHS和私人资助者的校外资助。 该培训计划建立在培养博士后研究员25年的成功基础上。我们的证明重点是在艾滋病毒/艾滋病预防科学研究与公共卫生课程密集培训保持在这一建议。我们提出两项主要创新：（1）在哥伦比亚大学设立生物伦理学证书方案，以应对艾滋病毒预防和艾滋病治疗战略日益复杂所带来的伦理和研究挑战;（2）短途旅行和校外实习，使研究员能够接触到与艾滋病毒有关的各种研究学科和纽约几个主要方案的实践领域;从这些短途旅行中将出现由艾滋病毒中心以外的研究人员或专业人员组成的合作项目，例如，参与实地研究，二手数据分析和/或论文写作。除了这些创新之外，我们还提出了各种其他调整，包括扩大艾滋病毒科学研讨会的内容，以促进生物医学艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究的扫盲。 在今后五年中，我们建议保持七名研究员，每人任期三年，并在研究员毕业时再任命新的研究员。我们的计划将继续通过整个哥伦比亚大学医学中心和纽约市提供的众多教育资源和培训机会来丰富。正如我们的许多毕业生的成功职业生涯所示，该计划对艾滋病毒/艾滋病研究和艾滋病毒/艾滋病相关的预防，治疗和护理产生了重大影响。
