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名福格蒂全球卫生研究员和学者提供了研究培训，迄今为止， 866篇文章通过这次竞争性更新，我们建议扩大培训活动， 学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 联盟名称，以反映这一新的重点：北方太平洋全球卫生领导，教育， 早期职业研究人员的发展（NPGH领导者）。我们建议继续建立伙伴关系， 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。实现我们 为了培养下一代独立的全球卫生科学家和领导者，我们将提供 12-为期一个月的研究和领导力培训，具体目标如下：目标1： 科学探究，学员将完成全球卫生研究的综合课程，包括如何 制定新颖、相关和可行的科学问题，准备详细的科学方案，并计划 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 在低资源环境下实施研究的挑战，学员将遵循一个明确的，快速的， 支持和指导从研究规划到务实实施和过程的进展 管理目标3：培养学员成为独立的科学家，并在两方面都有出色的领导能力 和管理，我们将支持学员制定个性化的“路线图”，以确定研究， 他们过渡到独立调查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，以进一步加强必要的科学和领导技能， 过渡到下一代独立的全球健康科学家。美国的四所大学， 作为印第安纳州大学-自2016年以来的合作伙伴-已承诺费用分摊资金总额 565 000美元，用于增加征聘和留住任职人数不足的少数群体，并提供第二年的研究金 为最有生产力的人服务我们预计每年至少支持10名学员，共计50名 在五年的资助期内，60%的学员将达到美国博士后水平，40%将达到美国博士后水平。 执行与艾滋病毒有关的研究项目。

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.
