 DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Specific Aim1: Graduate (Masters and PhD) level curriculum development. We will continue to develop graduate level curriculum at UEM by developing the coursework and faculty required to establish a PhD in Biomedical Sciences degree program. We will strengthen the educational and research capabilities of existing faculty at UEM and senior research staff at the closely affiliated Instituto Nacional de Saude (INS) Maputo Central Hospital (MCH) by offering a structured faculty development program that features both didactic and longitudinal peer-to-peer mentored faculty development components. After a careful needs assessment and with ongoing advice from the Training Advisory Committee we will develop coursework to complement existing offerings so that by year four of this program, UEM will have established the capability to train Mozambican doctoral students within our country. Specific Aim 2: Training the next generation of Mozambican Biomedical Researchers. Under this specific aim, we will offer mentored training opportunities in HIV and its complications, neurosciences and child and family health to two groups of students. Under sub-aim 2a, we provide training in research methodology to 15 - 20 junior faculty from UEM, doctoral level staff members from the INS or medical doctors who have completed training in medicine or pediatrics at MCH. During year 1 training modules that were initially developed in the first MEPI grant cycle on grantsmanship, research management, manuscript writing, research ethics and other related topics will be strengthened and offered to selected members of the training faculty of this D43. These individuals will both benefit from the instruction and wll become the core faculty for this program going forward. During year 2 of the D43 we will recruit the first group of 5 junior faculty into the program. These individuals will complete the course modules during their first year in the program and will then complete a mentored research project under the direction of a multinational mentorship committee that is formed for each student. Under sub-aim2b, we will recruit from a group of over 30 junior staff at INS who have completed Masters training and from internal medicine or pediatric physicians who have completed a masters program designed and implemented by the MEPI to supplement clinical training received at MCH. We will recruit 4 PhD candidates each year in years 2 and 3 of this D43 and an additional 3 each year during years 4 and 5. PhD candidates will work with a thesis advisor and a multinational thesis committee to develop a program consisting of coursework undertaken at UEM and consortium partners (UCSD, the Federal University of Bahia and Stellenbosch University) and a PhD thesis project within Mozambique. Each student will be supported for a year of coursework to augment the content of their prior masters coursework. This will be followed by a year of mentored research within Mozambique under the direction of their thesis committee. By the end of the program 11 students will have completed the entire program and an additional three will have completed the necessary coursework for the PhD degree. Specific Aim 3: Strengthening Research Administration Capacity within Mozambique. Under this specific aim we will continue to strengthen research administrative capacity within Mozambique by offering structured training opportunities to research administrative professionals based at our administrative support unit (MIHER), UEM and the INS. Under this specific aim we will also offer supplemental training in research management and bioethics to all trainees participating in the program outlined under Specific Aim 2.

 具体目标1：研究生（硕士和博士）水平的课程开发。我们将继续通过开发课程和教师所需的建立在生物医学科学学位课程博士学位在UEM开发研究生水平的课程。我们将通过提供一个结构化的教师发展计划来加强UEM现有教师和密切附属的Instituto Nacional de Saude（INS）马普托中心医院（MCH）高级研究人员的教育和研究能力，该计划以教学和纵向为特色点对点指导教师发展组件。经过仔细的需求评估和培训咨询委员会的持续建议，我们将开发课程，以补充现有的产品，以便在该计划的第四年，UEM将建立在我国培训莫桑比克博士生的能力。具体目标2：培养下一代莫桑比克生物医学研究人员。根据这一具体目标，我们将为两组学生提供艾滋病毒及其并发症、神经科学以及儿童和家庭健康方面的辅导培训机会。在次级目标2a下，我们向15 - 20名来自UEM的初级教员、来自INS的博士级工作人员或在妇幼保健院完成医学或儿科培训的医生提供研究方法培训。在第一年，最初在第一个MEPI赠款周期中开发的关于赠款、研究管理、手稿撰写、研究伦理和其他相关主题的培训模块将得到加强，并提供给D43培训学院的选定成员。这些人都将受益于指令，并将成为该计划的核心教师前进。在D43的第二年，我们将招募第一批5名初级教师进入该计划。这些人将在课程的第一年完成课程模块，然后在为每个学生成立的跨国导师委员会的指导下完成一个指导研究项目。在子目标2b下，我们将从INS的30多名初级工作人员中招募，他们已经完成了硕士培训，并从内科或儿科医生中招募，他们已经完成了由MEPI设计和实施的硕士课程，以补充在MCH接受的临床培训。我们将在第2年和第3年每年招收4名博士候选人，在第4年和第5年每年额外招收3名。博士候选人将与论文顾问和跨国论文委员会合作，开发一个由UEM和联盟合作伙伴（UCSD，巴伊亚和斯泰伦博斯大学的联邦大学）进行的课程组成的计划，以及莫桑比克境内的博士论文项目。每个学生将获得一年的课程支持，以增加他们以前的硕士课程的内容。随后将在论文委员会的指导下，在莫桑比克进行为期一年的指导研究。到课程结束时，11名学生将完成整个课程，另外三名学生将完成博士学位的必要课程。具体目标3：加强莫桑比克的研究管理能力。在这一具体目标下，我们将继续加强莫桑比克的科研管理能力，为行政支持单位（MIHER）、UEM和INS的科研管理专业人员提供结构化培训机会。
