ABSTRACT The University of the West Indies Mona Campus and the Ministry of Health, Jamaica have identified the goal of establishing a Virology Research Program as one of the highest national health priorities. The program will require training basic, translational and clinical scientists and this will be the responsibility of the Global Infectious Diseases Research Training Program described in this application. The Global Infectious Diseases Research Training Program mentoring program was developed during a three-year planning period and will be led by faculty from the University at Buffalo, Upstate Medical University and the University of the West Indies. Training will focus on candidates at the University of the West Indies, Mona Campus who are enrolled in Master's, PhD, and post-doctoral programs. Specific aims include: 1) Create a core of young investigators by providing a “value added” research training based on a mentored curriculum and core laboratory experiences that jointly emphasize research design, methods and analytic techniques to address virology research questions that confront Jamaica, 2) Provide an integrated mentoring program that fosters innovative research and enhances the trainees' ability to conceptualize and think through research problems with increasing independence and 3) Develop future research leaders in virology who will establish extramurally funded research programs and mentor the next generation of graduate students and fellows. The training objective is to develop 15 independent researchers with expertise in one or more of these areas: arbovirology, viral hepatitis, chronic viral infection, antiviral drug development, bioinformatics, and laboratory sciences. This objective will be accomplished by a collaborative approach to mentoring, a customized curricula based on each trainee's individualized development plan and a Virology Research Skills Toolbox. Trainees will have short-term periods in US laboratories directed by faculty mentors with extensive experience in virology, immunology and pharmacology research while completing their research at the University of the West Indies resulting in capacity building and an independent virology research team. The proposed GIDRTP will address important public health challenges related to viral disease and be consistent with current plans for achieving sustainable development goals related to health in Jamaica.

抽象的 西印度群岛大学蒙娜（Mona）校园和牙买加卫生部已确定了目标 建立病毒学研究计划是最高的国家健康重点之一。该程序 将需要培训基本，翻译和临床科学家，这将是全球的责任 传染病研究培训计划中描述了本应用程序。全球传染病 研究培训计划指导计划是在三年计划期间制定的，将 由布法罗大学，上州医科大学和西部大学的大学领导 印度。培训将重点介绍已入学的蒙娜校区西印度群岛大学的候选人 在硕士，博士和博士后计划中。具体目的包括：1）创建年轻调查员的核心 通过提供基于指导课程和核心实验室的“增值”研究培训 共同强调研究设计，方法和分析技术来解决病毒学的经验 面对牙买加的研究问题，2）提供一个促进综合心理计划 创新的研究并增强了培训的能力，可以通过研究问题进行概念化和思考 随着独立性的增加和3）发展病毒学的未来研究领导者，他们将建立 由外部资助的研究计划和指导下一代研究生和研究员。 培训目标是在其中一个或多个领域中开发15位具有专家的独立研究人员： 芳香病毒学，病毒肝炎，慢性病毒感染，抗病毒药物开发，生物信息学和实验室 科学。这个目标将通过一种心理的协作方法来实现，这是一个定制的 基于每个学员的个性化发展计划和病毒学研究技能工具箱的课程。 学员将在由教师导师指导的美国实验室短期 在完成他们的研究时，在病毒学，免疫学和药理学研究方面的经验 西印度群岛大学导致能力建设和独立的病毒学研究团队。这 拟议的GIDRTP将解决与病毒疾病有关的重要公共卫生挑战，并保持一致 随着目前实现与牙买加卫生有关的可持续发展目标的计划。
