Northern Pacific Global Health Leadership, Education, and Development for Early-career Researchers (NPGH LEADERs)

在过去的十年里，我们在夏威夷、密歇根、明尼苏达和华盛顿的联盟大学 为221名Fogarty全球卫生研究员和学者提供研究培训，他们迄今已产生 866种出版物。随着这次竞争的更新，我们建议扩大培训活动，旨在增加 受训人员成为独立的全球卫生科学家和领导者的可能性。我们已经修改了我们的 反映这一新重点的财团名称：北太平洋全球卫生领导、教育和 职业生涯早期研究人员(NPGH领导者)的发展。我们建议继续在以下方面建立合作伙伴关系 九个国家：肯尼亚、乌干达、加纳、喀麦隆、利比里亚、秘鲁、泰国、尼泊尔和印度。为了实现我们的目标 培养下一代独立的全球卫生科学家和领导者的目标，我们将提供 为期12个月的研究和领导能力培训，具体目标如下：目标1：确保在 通过科学探究，学员将完成全球卫生研究的全面课程，包括如何 提出新的、相关的和可行的科学问题，准备详细的科学方案，并为 在低收入或中等收入国家实施有指导的研究项目。目标2：解决 研究实施的挑战在低资源环境下，受训者将遵循明确的、快速的、 支持和指导从研究规划到实际实施和流程的过程 管理层。目标3：让受训人员为独立科学家的职业生涯做好准备，并在两种领导力上都出类拔萃 和管理，我们将支持学员制定个性化的“路线图”，以确定研究， 过渡到独立调查人员所需的管理和领导技能。我们还将 扩大校友对校友的支持，进一步加强必要的科学和领导技能 向下一代独立的全球卫生科学家过渡。美国四所大学也是如此 作为印第安纳大学-自2016年以来一直是关联合作伙伴-承诺的成本分担资金总额 565,000美元，用于增加招聘和留住任职人数偏低的少数群体和第二年研究金 对于最有效率的人来说。我们预计每年至少支持10名学员，总共支持50名学员 在五年的资助期内培训学员；60%的学员将达到美国博士后水平，40%的学员将 实施艾滋病相关研究项目。

Over the past ten years, our consortium Universities in Hawaii, Michigan, Minnesota, and Washington have provided research training to 221 Fogarty Global Health Fellows and Scholars, who to date have generated 866 publications. With this competitive renewal, we propose to expand training activities aimed at increasing the likelihood of trainees becoming independent global health scientists and leaders. We have modified our consortium name to reflect this new emphasis: Northern Pacific Global Health Leadership, Education, And Development for Early-career Researchers (NPGH LEADERs). We propose to continue partnerships based in nine countries: Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, Cameroon, Liberia, Peru, Thailand, Nepal, and India. To achieve our objective of developing the next generation of independent global health scientists and leaders, we will offer 12-month research and leadership training with the following specific aims: Aim 1: To ensure excellence in scientific inquiry, trainees will complete a comprehensive curriculum in global health research, including how to frame novel, relevant, and feasible scientific questions, prepare detailed scientific protocols, and plan for the implementation of a mentored research project in a low- or middle-income country. Aim 2: To address the challenges of research implementation in a low-resource setting, trainees will follow an explicit, expedited, supported, and mentored progression from research planning to pragmatic implementation and process management. Aim 3: To prepare trainees for careers as independent scientists and to excel in both leadership and management, we will support trainees in development of individualized “road maps” to define the research, management and leadership skills necessary for their transition into independent investigators. We will also expand alumni support for alumni to further strengthen the scientific and leadership skills necessary for transitioning to the next generation of independent global health scientists. The four U.S. universities, as well as Indiana University - an associated partner since 2016 - have committed cost-sharing funds totaling $565,000 to increase recruitment and retention of underrepresented minorities and a second year of fellowship for the most productive fellows. We anticipate supporting at least 10 trainees each year, for a total of 50 trainees over the five year grant period; 60% of trainees will be at the U.S. postdoctoral level and 40% will implement HIV-related research projects.
